I imagine Lenihan, Forss and Barlaser will be on decent money, should give us some room to work with.

 

[CG85]

I thought gilbert had another year, oh well saves trying to shift him on

 

[EuropaParmo]

And Sarmiento confirmed as signing by the club

 

[Otto42]

Only super Sammy out of that lot I might have kept. Hopefully sort something out with Dael and can shift one or two others on.

 

[HarryVegas]

Glad we're looking to keep Dael mind.

 

[Steer]

No real surprises.

Gilbert and Silvera gone . Both "squad" players have had their good moments during their time here.

 

[Left_peg]

I think out of them there's only Silvera that some people would have kept on

 

[Otto42]

And Sarmiento confirmed as signing by the club

Imagine he’ll come back pre season with a big piece about how disappointed he was these past few months, but is raring to go and will be like a new signing….something like ‘Jeremy looking to Show the Peeps’

 

[ForssAwakens]

I’m very worried about next season

To the disappointment to others, I think that the other positions that need filling Strelec will be our no1 striker next season

 

[Pilkington]

Wonder what'll happen with Dieng. Guess he's on a fair wedge

 

[TeessideCleveland]

I thought gilbert had another year, oh well saves trying to shift him on

Yes I thought so too
Not surprised he’s going if he’s out of contract though - same with Silvera

 

[changingman]

Shows the order of magnitude of rebuild required this summer.

Gilbert was one of four CM first team options this season.

Silvera deputised in multiple positions throughout the season.

This suggests to me significant volume of incoming signings during preseason.

 

[asredastheycome]

No issues with any of main players leaving.

Of the younger players I thought Bakre was rated but maybe not.

 

[Pilkington]

If a big offer came in for Morris, we could be looking at having to replace our entire midfield. Really hoping he stays

 

[atomicloonybin aka ALB]

Slightly surprised that Gilbert and Silvera are gone. Decent squad players, and I would have liked to see Gilbert given more of a chance. But I imagine they'd have been paid more than the club was going to offer.

 

[Chappy112]

Silvera and Gilbert did well at times this season but neither of them could get a game in League One last year, I think it was Hellberg getting more out of them, I’m glad we’re aiming higher.

 

[Palacered]

I thought we would keep one of Gilbert or Silvera as neither I presume were on big money.

Wish them the best, I think Champo teams will take a punt.

The rest have played no part this year but good to have some more wages to play with.

 

[Pilkington]

No issues with any of main players leaving.

Of the younger players I thought Bakre was rated but maybe not.

Always makes me sad when I read the list of academy players who get released, especially when there were high hopes for anyone on it

 

[Acklam_Lad]

Wonder what'll happen with Dieng. Guess he's on a fair wedge

Sure I seen something last week saying he was on 20 odd grand a week.

Absolutely robbing a living

Disappointed to see Sammy and Alex go. Decent squad players that I’m sure don’t cost that much in wages.. can see a struggle replacing them for a similar price and wages

The rest… Meh

As for Sarmiento… he really needs to start pulling up trees next season
