I know why 3 year contracts have been given out it’s more to entice a player to come play non league football. But IF PP doesn’t achieve playoffs then that will be him done this season and the next manager will need to want these players on long contracts otherwise may lose money on the players that we paid for them.
The three year contracts were given out to build a long term spine to the team with proven quality players which will get us into the league and hopefully into L1. If PP does go id imagine any manager coming would want to retain these players. Id also imagine though certain players would be shown the door.

He clearly had nothing to do with the retained list etc. And if sights were set too high on CM's they should have been lowered. As has been said even someone Conference level like Storer would have knitted this team together brilliantly.

At this rate it will take us 3 years to get into the league.

I agree he would of had nothing to do with the retained list. He could of made contact with Harris to see if he was interested before he signed for Warrington as he didn’t sign for Warrington until end August. On the fearless in devotion podcast with Harris - Harris said that PP had spoken to a player at the club and asked about any midfield options and that player said yes Jay Harris.

Absolutely agree regards Storer he would of been a really good option.

Anyone thinking that was caught up in the emotion that surrounds the story which is easy to do, history tells us the likes of Salford, Forest Green, Stockport have spent big and non found the league a walk in the park.

In some respects we have been unlucky with the fixture list which was pretty horrific and hasn’t allowed our players to gel against weaker opposition. However we haven’t helped ourselves with some strange recruitment in midfield.

The reality is some teams like Chesterfield needed fine tuning while we needed overhauling so they are in a better position. I don’t think we will win the league, but if we can go into the play offs strong we have a chance.

I don’t see the obsession with Harris. There were loads of midfielders available, why just focus on ex players. Midfield recruitment has not been good enough, but that doesn’t make Harris the solution.
