I think we are going to know the list on Friday, but some have been told to find another club.

To have our starting LB and starting CM sorted so early in the window, and for free also, would be brilliant.

Browne will be the Hamer replacement surely.

See a midfield of Sheaf Browne and Torp next year.
Can't see Torp replacing Eccles any time soon, I still have nightmares thinking about that first half performance at Brum ! 😱

Torp is a decent option from the bench, unless he can improve quite a bit in pre-season.

A midfield of Torp, Browne and Sheaf with back up option of Eccles and one more to come in would be immense
we have that option on a Peterborough player too with Hector Kyprianou being named previously, so if thats the case we're looking strong.

Wilson, Collins, Dasilva, Godden and Tavares amongst them I reckon.
Up to the last few weeks I would have agreed re Tavares but he looked so much better recently and I wouldn't be moaning too much if he stayed.

Yea it's a tricky one, he's got pace and puts a good ball into the box.
I think I read that he's got 1 year left on his contract, so we may keep him for that year, unless we can find someone better of course. Not too fussed either way tbf.

I think next season the squad will look something like this

new gk / Brad Collins
Sam McCallum / Jay Dasilva
New CB (Binks?) / Liam Kitching
Bobby Thomas / Joel Latibeaudiere
Milan van Ewijk / Jack Burroughs
Ben Sheaf / Josh Eccles
Victor Torp / new CM
Alan Browne / Jamie Allen
Tatsuhiro Sakamoto / Fabio Tavares
Ellis Simms / new ST
Haji Wright / Ephron Mason-Clarke

Maybe a CB and RB to come in with Burroughs and Lati to be utility players or just lati and JB to go out on loan again

We will sign another RW 100%

Good solid pro, and very decent defender.
(Way better player than Dasilva imo)
I'd like to see him stay for another season.

Remember that diving headed clearance off the line against Leeds?
Bidwell is always solid and consistent. There’s a reason why he’s been playing towards the top end of the championship for last few seasons

Browne is very very likely. Fantastic signing that if we can get it over the line

McCallum also edging closer
McCallum would be a great signing! But the cynic in me thinks it's far fetched to imagine he's having contract negotiations with us whilst Norwich are preparing for a play off semi-final against Leeds on Sunday?

Yesterday my eldest lad shared that he’d been told Rudoni, Brown and McCallum were all at Ryton. Told him “bollocks nothing would happen yet” then see all the messages today 🤔

Browne would be a great signing, good experience and leadership, would be a shrewd signing imo. McCallum too, knows the manager and the club and is a good player.

Always enjoyed watching Browne in possession when we’ve played against him. Having that extra technician in the squad is huge. Fantastic for our depth

As much as we all love Kelly, we lose something within the system when we’ve had to rely on him.

The released are who we expected but being sold was Wilson, Lati, Bidwell &Palmer. Might all be bollocks but he’s never claimed to to be ITK before
Yep lines up with what SaddleBrains has said. I think your son is on the right lines.

I get the impression Robins is trying to build a possession dominant side, which is why hes pursuing with JDS who is slightly better on the ball than Bidwell. I find this odd though, as we look most dangerous when we are counter attacking.

Alan Browne would be a fantastic signing for us.
