I think the most important thing right now is persuading the young promising players to not want to leave. The whole plan with the new investor I believe is building a side which will get us out of League 1 and to do well in the Championship and so on. Putting Long and Maguire on longer deals is integral and we need Cuvelier and Baxter (in case they turn out any good) to stay patient with the club and help us get out of League 1.

I agree with you in principle. I'm afraid, however, that I don't regard the two you name as integral at all. They are simply not that good.

I'm not particularly adverse to losing either (though I do like Long) but if we lost Maguire we'd have to spend a chunk of the money on a direct replacement because we're very short of numbers t Centre Back.
