Huws and Adeyemi should be offloaded without doubt as their fitness record is so poor.

Of the others, they don't have such poor records. I think it's more a case of whether they are good enough. Unlike some, I think that Sears and Ward are good enough for league 1. The youngsters are less proven but presumably cheaper to keep. I wouldn't be bothered if any or all of them stayed or were released.

How can you sell long-term injured players ?
How can you release players like Huws or Sears when they’re contracted to us and we have a duty of care? Unless we pay of their contracts. 2 more years of Huws contract won’t be cheap to settle up.

We have to freshen up the squad and desperately have to trim the squad first. The squads far too big.The out of contract players like Adeyemi and Ward should be no-brainers. Wards been largely a disappointment over the last 3 years and if we give him another year it might mean we can’t bring a senior player in.

As for Folami and Morriss... it’s not like they’re on big contracts and have a history of injury. Unless PL is absolutely certain they won’t make it.

Keep Morris and possibly Folami, find a way to ditch the rest, bored with them all.

Morris will never be a professional footballer. Said it last year and I’ll say it again.

Hardly counts when it’s he club you have been a youth with and they offer you a short term youngster deal. He will more like a Jack Ainsley than a Luke Hyam or Connor Wickham ......

The season’s over, but today is apparently when PL is supposed to confirm who’s staying or going?

I think contracts which are due to run down will simply not be renewed, but I wonder if there’ll be other contracted players who will be placed on the transfer list/ asked to find another club. Might be a couple of surprises along with the obvious ones.
