As we end one season, it's time to look ahead to the next. Let's put all transfer talk in here!

Just thinking, to get us started, how easy would it to get a list of all the League 1 players over the age of say….32? We could narrow that down further if their own club has listed them and if they’ve had a few injuries.

No major surprise if true given his age and last season's long injury. I believe the retained list has to be published within 2 weeks of the season ending so we should hear tomorrow or Saturday who is going.

Ash Hunter has been released I expected this to be honest. He never lived up to his first season with us and his antics coupled with his inability to get over a decent cross or corner kick made him extremely frustrating to watch. Wish him well nevertheless!

Completely expected this and I don't see Tom Elliott returning either following his loan spell at Bradford City. Will be interesting to see who the replacements will be.

I hope that we keep playing Matt Smith and Brandon; no matter that one is getting on a bit and that the other can be impetuous.

BTA can be as frustrating as he can be exciting, but has done well and I hope he stays. What he hasn’t yet mastered is where to run off Smith. We need someone who can do that.

Wish him well nevertheless!Rarely impressed last season, but his inability to beat the first defender 9 times out of 10 infuriated me. I don’t get why professional players have so much difficulty with getting a dead ball in the air.

Released lists have to be confirmed before midnight tomorrow. I imagine on the release front it will be Hunter, Henderson, Lund (maybe), Willock (maybe), Burgess, Golden, McAleny - then it will be either a wait and see on Thurnbull and Theo Vassell if they have been offered extensions.
I know I have have been banging this drum for a few weeks now but my worry is the number of players that will hit the market and have the club made contact with them yet??? We need quality and I worry for example - with no Ste Kelly in with Watson our midfield could lack serious quality and depth.

We need quality and I worry for example - with no Ste Kelly in with Watson our midfield could lack serious quality and depth. Turnbull and Vassell I’d keep. If they want to stay of course. You didn’t mention Morris. If he’s still here, he can go for me. Never lived up to his promise. Shame about Willock. I thought he did well until injured but couldn’t get back in the team. Maybe he can still offer something? Golden is a promising player, but we’ll never give him the chance. Funny how he for a few starts around the time the documentary came out and GN was singing his praises. Assuming Kelly and Ndaba aren’t coming back, we need direct replacements for both of them. But with those two gone, Hunter and Hendo confirmed, that’s 4 players gone. There will be others so and we are just talking about players maybe out of contract. The new manager may want rid of some still under contract. it’s wholesale changes again this coming season. That always works so well for us.

Davis Keillor-Dunn At Oldham would be a great addition to replace Kelly in my opinion. That said I think if Wrexham’s Deadpool Owners come up I can see him going back there. Defensively at this point I could see Carl Piergianni back at Moor Lane.
