[QUOTE=krux;2256311]so the budget has been spent before the summer begins.

Who knew manny was under contract?
who knew grant had option?
we have offered Tharme the chance to be our 5th centre half.[/QUOTE]
There won’t be much room here, good luck Bryan you’ve made your bed now.

Re: Retained list OFFICIAL
 

Potential for 5 CBs though. No massive surprises there though. Although personally wouldn't have offered Rutherford anything.

Re: Retained list OFFICIAL
 

Could have been a bit more ruthless, but it's not the end of the world. I'm happy with the ones staying.

[QUOTE=Rob;2256310]Interesting note "Bobby Grant (Player Exercised Option)"[/QUOTE]

That was the one that jumped off the screen to me.

Is that them saying "We didnt bloody offer it, he just exercised his option."

I still maintain, Bobby Grant to me, still looks like a good quality football BUT it hasnt worked. I hoped to see him gone.

Rutherford must be on next to nothing. Offers cover in various positions, I can see that.

All those others released I agree with BUT offering Kennedy a contract looks a weird one because we could potentially now have Smith (didnt know he had a contract) Pearson Kennedy AND Tharme. Weird.

Re: Retained list OFFICIAL
 

Relatively happy with that.

Can definitely see 3 at the back with potentially 5 centre halves on the books.

Pleased Grant's staying too. Play him in his favoured position and he's a class above this league.

Bobby fecking Grant.

[QUOTE=Funny_Old_Game;2256315]I’m happy enough with that.

Rutherford will play 40 games next season though.[/QUOTE]

I can't see that we have freed up much budget to make changes to our attacking options
We will have 5 centre backs at the club next season unless they know one is leaving.............

That is my worry. I am seeing him as cover, and Hughes is gonna bloody play him.

Re: Retained list OFFICIAL
 

When did Rutherford sign? Surely after we lost to Eastleigh. Rutherford in league 2 would be laughable!
