In anticipation of next season's League Two relegation battle, this is the current state (and it is a state) that I believe our squad is currently in:
UNDER CONTRACT
Goalkeepers:
Ben Garratt
Dave Richards
Defenders:
Harry Davis
George Ray
Ben Nugent
Jon Guthrie
Oliver Turton
Perry Ng
James Baillie
Harry Pickering
Midfielders/Wingers:
Billy Bingham
George Cooper
Ryan Wintle
Callum Ainley
Charlie Kirk
Oliver Finney
Tom Lowery
Owen Dale
Forwards:
Callum Saunders
Daniel Udoh
Out of Contract but with Options to extend for a further year:
Joe Kearns (Release)
Toby Mullarkey (Release)
James Jones (Keep)
Fraser Murdoch (Definite Release, joke if he's kept on any longer)
Andre Brown (Keep but will probably be released)
Liam O'Neill (Release)
Joe Howell (Keep)
Out of Contract:
Zoumana Bakayogo (Keep and has been offered a deal but will likely leave)
Brad Inman (Release, wouldn't even offer him a contract, inconsistent)
Chris Atkinson (Release)
David Fox (Release)
Marcus Haber (Release)
Lauri Dalla Valle (I like the guy but Release)
Furthermore to this, I can see a couple of shock contracted player exits like Liam Nolan was last season. James Baillie could potentially be one such player to leave. I expect Ben Garratt to be at the club in League Two even though he deserves to move on, his goals against record doesn't help him one bit. Neither does the fact that our entire pitiful 'defence' are under contract next season.
Very interesting to see if we can add to this young squad bereft of leadership (Before Steve advertises this all Summer, Harry Davis is not a leader, just an overpaid clogger). I highly doubt we'll be busy in the transfer market and so this rudderless squad will descend to a relegation battle next season.
