Retained List (speculation)

[EnglishRed]

This has to be done soon surely. When do contracts expire, end of the month?

The only people not currently contracted id be offering things to would be Keillor Dunn and Kennedy (if he's out of contract at his parent club). Everyone else can go, id move on Redmond too but I dont think paying off contracts is necessarily the best thing to do at the moment so if he's still here Keates has to find a way to get him motivated (which I dont think is DKs strong suit)

Id imagine our budget will be smaller next season? We can't afford any passengers really.

Then there's Darlington , will they announce his new contract after the AGM .

Kennedy is more than out of contract with Port Vale. He has told me he has been released and hopes to get a new one at Wrexham.

There will be dozens of centre halves available that are better than Kennedy. Whether we can afford them is another matter. These players will also have to compromise massively on their wage demands too as every club will be feeling the pinch

I still think there will be clubs offering silly contracts to key / decent players out there. I've little or not hope we will be able to attract the quality we need to the club.

We do seem to be spectacularly bad at finding players for the system the manager wants to play.

Playing Bobby Grant as a target man has got to be one of the greatest bad decision ever.

Sounds like its not the managers responsibility to find the players he wants the way you've worded this. If we are to believe what we are told then the manager has full control.
Is Ogleby still our scout?

Don't think so, he wasn't very good at that. So has now decided to give being a Football Agent a go.
