Reckon the ones in bold are definitely players who’ll be released. Mcgeady may well retire and Rose let go with maybe McGinty.

Yeah, says on an email I just got.

Red Stone.

When York sacked their manager a few months back I was surprised he wasn’t sniffing about, get the band back together with Dipo.

He’s been released. The retained list shows a list of players under contract and players who have been released.

Oh I know we need big improvements in the full back areas, that's not under question. However, we lose so many goals from crosses by a) not being able to stop the cross and b) our centre halves not being capable of defending the six yard box. Morton goal in the 1-1 a prime example of centre halves not being able to close off their runners or get to the ball first. Stanger and one other is absolutely fine for me.

We have the second worse defensive record this season and people are wanting the full defence re-signed for next season

He's been brilliant the last 4/5 weeks, especially at left back. However as you say, he misses on average 15-20 games a season through injury and international games. If he plays on Friday, that's 20 games from 36 in the league, 1 game from 5 in League Cup, 1 game from 3 in Scottish Cup and 0 in the Challenge Cup. So 45 game season and missed 23, so just over half our matches he hasn't been playing. He may have been on the bench for 1 or 2 and not came on.

You know, completely forgot about Syla . Agree with that. Although a toss up between McGinty and Sanders. I really don’t think McGinty will be here next year.

Ideally we can get rid of a couple who are still under contract, release a few who are going to be out of contract and get decent additions in that Brown wants, not anyone else. Everyone fit, I would say our strongest lineup is Clarke, McAllister, Stanger, Musonda, Reading, Murdoch, Dempsey, Chalmers, Murphy, McKenzie, Dowds Replace the players in bold with new signings (may be harsh on Stanger) and sign the players underlined and I think that’s a good base for next season. Also depends what happens with Murdoch if he’s staying or going.

I was at Somerset earlier and he was with Shane Power outside the stadium in training gear so imagine he’s back working already.

Brown has more or less secured half our points total in 9 less matches and improved the GD all while having a pretty serious injury list. You can't really grumble with that. Had Bullen got the bullet after the Peterhead game and he got a full transfer window, we might have had a chance at 4th. All ifs and buts of course.

Albinson Stanger Sanders McGinty Musonda Dempsey McHugh Chalmers McKenzie Murphy Dowds Subs: Clarke, Smith, McGinley, McGeady, Tomlinson, Bryden, McRoberts, Amartey, (Youth Player) Think it would be nice to give Albinson one last game since he'll be off. McRoberts and Tomlinson to get a good chunk of game time.

I see the goalie top has sold out already.

Hopefully second last game of an awful season. Will Syla be back? Clarke Stanger Sanders McGinty Musonda Syla Dempsey McHugh Chalmers Willoughby Murphy Subs: Canny even be arsed looking at who we have left. 3-0 Thistle.
