    Default Player clearout

    Whoever is in charge, we are going to need a clearout in the summer. Obviously there are loads of fringe players, who are surplus to requirements, but I think our first team is cluttered with crud as well. Who, if anyone would you like us to hang on to?

    Personally, I'd nominate Smithy and maybe Eustace.

    Demerit, ****tu, Eustace, Bromby I'm not fussed either way.

    The rest I'd like to all see gone. I've never had as little respect for our players as now.

    Keep:
    Lee
    Demerit (though if he leaves sure we can find replacement)
    ****tu (if he can be convinced to stay)
    Bromby
    Sadler
    Eustace
    Smith
    McAnuff (one more season to prove himself)
    Francis (unless latest injury has ended his career)
    Priskin (only as 4th choice - with right training could yet be a good player)
    Ellington (same as McAnuff)

    Bang Bang, O'Tool, Loach, Aidy M, Ainsworth, Parkes, Robinson

    Sell the rest for somewhere between £1-3 million

    Buy or loan:
    2 strikers (Priskin and Ellington kept as back up)
    A left back
    A Centre back (only if Jay or Danny leaves)
    A left winger
    Another Central midfielder
    Where has the time gone...?

    i would personaly add kabba to the list, improved SLIGHTLY but not worth a place in the current 16(and they are shocking)...so therefore get rid IMO

    Also...i may be setting myself up for a load of abuse ..but i would keep stewart .He had a pretty good game against scunny (aswel as anyone) and tbh could act as cover on the left hand side if needed.

    And finally, getting rid of mart poom depends on his wages IMO...he makes a good number 2.

    I see what you mean about JS but it might be worth just having Dale Bennett as cover and save us the big wages

    Poom is earning about £10,000 a week and for a number 2 is abit too hefty although if he actually gets some games then I think he is worth keeping

    I'm glad everyone wants to see Jackson stay, he has given us so much this year
    It’s my opinion to which I am entitled. Not everyone is a brain dead sheep who agree with others to be popular.

    I'll not be fussed if we get rid of ****tu. He's a liability most of the time (awful positional sense) and his skill on the ball is only slightly better than Doyley. Sure he's good in the air, but so are hundreds of other players, most of whom are able to kick a football to a fellow team member.

    I am certain there will be a clear-out of sorts this summer. But I am not entirely sure it is necessary. I think we have players good enough to win this league - but our style doesn't cater to the players available.

    There are a few I'd gladly get rid of (Stewart for instance). But the majority I think can still do a job in the CCC (where I am certain we'll be next season). But the difference between success and failure will be whether the manager will be able to find a style that suits the players we have.

    The only place we're well and truly farked is midfield. Okay we need depth on the wings but midfield we lack quality. Eustace is a great holding midfielder but we don't have anyone to partner him.

    Find the style and the team can be fantastic. Fail to find it, and we'll fail miserably nomatter who's in charge.

    If Boothroyd gets ridd of the players that he bought in.
    Would it look like he was wrong to bring in these players in in the first place.

    If this could be the case then maybe he would not want to get ridd of these players because it would make him look like he should not have bought these players in the first place.

    I agree with you regarding JS. He would also be more difficult to replace without going backwards

    Sell:

    ****tu
    Hendo
    Williamson
    Doyley
    Stewart
    Ainsworth

    And all the other fringe players.

    Demerit and Mariappa will want to leave and will generate a lot of interest.

    Clear out half the backroom staff.

    The players i'd keep would be:

    Lee
    Mariappa
    Demerit (unless we can flog him for anything above £2,000,000)
    Bromby
    Sadler
    Eustace
    Williams
    Smith
    Ainsworth (one for the future IF nurtured properly)
    Ellington (Unless we can flog him for what we paid)
    Priskin (Unless we can get good money for him)

    Get rid of the rest!

    I like ****tu but we will get a decent offer for him from someone like QPR, West Brom or Stoke...he is also the main reason behind the 'hoof' from the back!

    I like McAnuff but he simply hasn't performed! I'm sick of sticking up for him! Someone will take him off our hands for near on what we paid...i'm sure of it!

    Keep Sadler, Bromby, Smith, Eustace. Not too bothered about the rest. Would take anything for ****tu don't rate him myself, think him and henderson are the two main causes (on the pitch) for our style of play.
