Thanks for promoting this debate. The conjecture is interesting, but in all honesty it all depends on how many contracted players do what what Rathbone and Humphrys did last year and say they don’t want to be here.
My bet is O’Donnell (without a doubt league standard, Mullarkey (same applies); John and Ball and Campbell are out in the cold and I can see them wanting to go.
I think EEL still believes he is league level. Taylor is interesting, think he would be good for us in the National but will his agent be in his ear, saying he can do better? Trouble is CH’s in the worst team in the league don’t have much cache.
So that could leave us with just Dave and Sinclair. So plenty of scope for a new manager to put his stamp on things.
New deals for both Hendo and Odoh would be a yes from me. |
Taylor's agent may well be in his ear saying he can do better but I'd be surprised if any managers in League Two agree with him. |  |

I thought John had been offered a new contract by Doncaster but signed for Dale instead?
Presumably for the money. |
I have it on good authority (ex Don employee) they shoved him out the door.

A thought I have is if things don’t change with the management, my concern is if Jim does the retained list, while we all agree who we think should go, would Jim give contracts to player who should be released (finances not withstanding) | | | |

Surely a new manager will be in place by the middle of May and any potential interested managers will be watching Dale matches between now and the seasons end...
The responsibilty of the retained list should not be for the interim manager..... |  |

Exactly...
Theres no point in Jim making any decisions re the retained list.
Id imagine the guy cant wait to hand the responsibility over ASAP.
For me its a complete shambles | | | |

I’d rather play with 10 men every week than play him. I’ll carry him to his next club on my back if he wants. |
Genuine question, why all the hate for Ball? Has there been some off field stuff I've missed? | | | |

I suppose its partly down to the fact he's not very good & has shown petulance on the pitch a few times.
If we were mid-table or doing well I don't think he would have come under as much stick personally but I very much doubt he will look back on his time here with much fondness.
I think some of the stick he has had on the socials has been a bit strong, but as a collective this group is awful & he is one of a number who will never return to the Football League. | | | |

CB Ethan Ebanks-Landell - Summer 2024
CB Max Taylor - Summer 2024
LCB Cameron John - Summer 2024
CM James Ball - Summer 2024
CM Ethan Brierley - Summer 2024
CAM/CF Tyrese Sinclair - Summer 2024
CAM - Abraham Odoh* - Summer 2024 (extension in club's favour)
CF Tahvon Campbell - Summer 2024
CF Devante Rodney - Summer 2024
CF Ian Henderson* - Summer 2024 (rumoured extension, if taken, based on appearances) | | | |

I can see 11 of the 13 contracted players potentially being here next season (we may get offers for O'Donnell, Mullarkey and Rodney), but I think Campbell may be offloaded and Brierley will be sold. I can see John either getting contract cancelled or made available on a free.
Of those out of contract, I can see Lloyd getting a offer, but he will get better offers. I can also see Graham, Keohane and Kelly getting new contract offers, Keohane because he is seen as a utility player.
The only ones that will be released are Bennett, White and Diagouraga. [Post edited 5 May 2023 20:25]

"However, a number of players who remain under contract have been informed that they have been placed on the transfer list with immediate effect.
Any player that remains in talks and eventually wishes to stay with the club next season would be expected to take a substantial drop in salary." | | | |

Hope you had some money on that!
Would be interesting to know who the transfer listed players are, but I’m sure we can guess at the majority |  | | |

I’m a bit surprised by Kelly being offered something, and to a lesser extent Keohane, but as they will be lower than what they’re on now I’d imagine they will be looking elsewhere. Would be amazing if Lloyd signed but feel confident he can do a job in L2 next season for someone based in the north west. | | | |

John, Ball and Campbell? |
I would have thought so.
And if it’s a wages thing, possibly EEL or O’Donnell. | | | |

I wish I had!
We can all potentially identify the three placed on the transfer list (Ball, Campbell & John), I still think we will gets bid for some of the players (Brierley, O'Donnell, Mullarkey & Rodney), but if we only lose Brierley & Mullarkey, plus those on the transfer list, I will be happy. Hopefully we can hold on Lloyd and if possible Graham & Kelly, I also think Keohane will sign. In respect to Lloyd & Keohane, I think their ages will be a factor, hopefully the offers are sensible enough for them to sign, rather then insulting.
Hopefully we will set a deadline for them to sign or not. | | | |

I'll be very happy if we can offload Ball, John and EEL. Use some of their wages to pay for Lloyd and that would be good business. |  |

For me, one of the tests of Jim's intentions will be a change of captain
He has an opportunity to bring in someone fresh with the right aptitude, which i'm failing to see in EEL and couldn't care less what his feelings might be about having it removed from him |  |

I'm surprised Bentley didn't remove it from him after the red card. [Post edited 15 May 2023 17:26]

Agree on the captain.
Jim has already tripped over himself with the Retained list. Having banged on about culture and selfless players who will give everything, he's offered Liam Kelly a deal.
It's just words until we see actions. |  | | |

Perhaps he has convinced Jimbo his attitude will improve. | |
