Re: Who goes and who stays ?
Who decides who stays or goes,if as expected Keates is made redundant,not up to him,so a new boss comes in what does he decide,my guess he keeps those on contract and bins the rest,to make way for hopefully some stellar signings.

Re: Who goes and who stays ?
I would keep most of these players and hopefully have a reserve team next season. We can afford it now.
Players I'd let go would be Durrell Rutherford Redmond Horsfield I would probably offer Pearson a coaching role, and he wouldnt play much because he looks so slow off the mark, and I wouldnt want him to be our weak link in defence, a bit like Brian Carey was towards the end. Carra and Jay Harris could be offered a year as squad players. Other than that the squad seems ok, and doesnt need ripping up, just add 4 or 5 quality players to it and we have a team capable of winning the league. Kelleher, Vassell and French are good enough to play league two, so I cant see why we would let either of them three leave.

Re: Who goes and who stays ?
In my opinion our best two players have been added in January in French and Kelleher.
Personally I would let the rest go and start again. Our midfield has been weak and I class Jarvis and Davies alongside Redmond - should be class but flatter to deceive. Harris is well past it for a champions team and sorry but so is Young. Durrell is not up to it. The playoffs is a lottery (which we may sneak into still) but we need to be champions so as not to risk another if and but season. Needless to say we need a proven manager with Pearson nowhere near him. |

Re: Who goes and who stays ?
Keep list:
Lainton Kelleher French Vassell Davies Thomas 50/50: Carrington Young Dior Angus Get rid: Pearson - far too slow and been a liability at times this season Durrell - bad attitude, overweight, lazy Rutherford JP Horsefield Redmond Jarvis - wearing gloves in a game played in April. Really? Rhj Harris Reckord - never seen a player at any level 'cross' the ball from so deep Dibble |

Re: Who goes and who stays ?
They spoke about the future and will Keates remain at Wrexham.Mark griffiths thinks that Keates has done an excellent job after taking over the job twice when we were a struggling team,his side kick for the afternoon agreed he reminded me of Phil neal that time he agreed with everything Graham taylor said.

Re: Who goes and who stays ?
Our stated objective for next season is promotion to the EFL; the aim is to have a full stadium, which requires effective and entertaining football.
With that in mind, I remain convinced that Keates and Co cannot fulfil those demanding requirements, and most of our players simply aren't good enough, too. Therefore... Players Under Contract - Retain Ponticelli - Season ruined by injury. Needs a rest and a good pre-season to better judge him. Davies - Not perfect but has improved with games. He is part of the future. Angus - Asked to do a difficult role when not fully fit and really a wide-man. Has pace and will improve with a good pre-season. Austin - Not seen him, but seemingly highly thought of. Bickerstaff - A bit lightweight, but has shown some good control at times. Needs to develop more. Cleworth - Think he will be very good, albeit may be better at RB than CB due to his size. Players Out of Contract but Worth an Extension Jarvis - Clearly like Marmite with RP experts, but I still think he is a good player who has not been developed. Hall-Johnson - Cannot defend for toffee, and inconsistent when crossing and attacking. Nevertheless, would be a good squad filler. Kelleher - Lack of genuine pace is the worry, but adequate providing there are quick players around him. French - Has been a good signing. With a good pre-season I think he'll improve again. Players Out of Contract to be Released Lainton - A good keeper, but does not command his 6-yard box and now injury-prone. Dibble - Not as bad as many claim, but also not good enough to be a permanent No 1. Pearson - Good captain when he arrived, but his foot injury has exacerbated his slowness. Could be a potential youth coach. Redmond - Something has gone badly wrong. Needs a break away from Wrexham to reset his career. Harris - Past his best, with a coaching job at Tranmere now his best option. Young - Doesn't command the midfield, but will pick up another club in the NL and do a job. Reckord - Very inconsistent and a poor wing-back. Durrell - Wasn't very good first-time; seemingly brilliant when elsewhere; has been poor again second-time. Very disappointing! Rutherford - Gets a lot of undeserved flack, but he is very limited despite his work-rate. But, he has been a good pro who got on with things. Carrington - He is in the running for my Player of the Season, but he now needs to look at coaching or management. Great guy; would like to see him in our Youth set-up. Vassell - French is a better option. Thomas - A poor footballer, albeit he was beginning to show some form alongside Angus. Injury could affect his career, so deserves some financial support from the club, but not a new contract. Horsfield - His knee injury clearly didn't help, but I suspect he fell out with Keates. Of the 10 players I would keep, not all would be automatic starters. Keates would certainly not be so ruthless, and a new manager might consider keeping more. However, if we are to meet our objective and aims we need a far better squad of players. That means upheaval, but so be it.
