    The first part is word for word, what was said straight away after the game on Monday.

    Players I see as being summer losses

    Anderson
    Connell
    Styles

    I'd imagine all the others will still be here.

    I actually think we'll keep Connell. I'd potentially add Collins and Williams to your list though, but to be honest, other than Connell, I'd be confident of us getting a good replacement in.

    I expect Williams and Mads going, sadly

    I think we'll keep Connell for one more season. If we go up he might be persuaded to sign an extension, if not then we'll definitely be cashing in. I reckon we'll lose Mads and Williams - excellent players, but definitely replaceable. Connell would be much harder to replace though.

    Collins' future will surely depend on Isted. Personally I think Isted is the better keeper, though I'd be more than happy with Brad next season if Isted doesn't return.

    With the rate that Kitching is improving at, I'd say he could overtake Andersen this season. We've also got McCarthy to come back, who I thought didn't look too bad prior to his injury. And with Thomas going back, you'd expect us to sign one more, particularly if we look to move Moon on.

    I don't expect us to sell Connell, as I don't think we'll get a big enough offer to tempt us to sell. He is clearly a great talent and has looked one from the very first game I saw him play, the pre-season friendly v Forest, but he's not quite the finished article yet. He can become a £5 million+ player, I believe, but I don't expect any club to offer that for him at the moment.

    What we wanted to hear, of course, but really not sure what else he could or would have said. I don't think his comments mean it's any more or less likely that he'll be with us next season.

    Certainly a lot more encouraging than Ismael's interview after the play offs, which was virtually a resignation speech.

    I'm actually a bit more hopeful on Mads. If we confirm a positive position with MD and are keeping most players and adding a couple, Mads is young enough to give us another year, unless of course we decide to cash in on the contract situation, but I think keeping him would be a worthwhile gamble.
    It would be lovely if he was there to wave at Washday as we pass them as they bounce back down.:)

    Would you expect better offers than us for Williams the way he's played since Christmas. Don't think Preston will come anywhere near him again.

    Duff and Khaled are like George Bush Jnr and Tony Blair. That's the key partnership. Special relationship. As long as they keep consulting like they are we'll be reight.

    Is Moon on the retained list, ??????.
    He may have a future here.

    Jasper Moon has just had a successful season at Burton. I'd be surprised if Duff can't get him up to top level for this league given his age.

    If Moon stays I think he’ll do well

    I think connell will stay another season unless a championship club comes with a big offer 2 years left balls in our court with him. Williams Collins and Anderson I think will all be sold. And Styles
