Retained list 13:25 - Apr 22 with 18330 viewsEllDale

Amidst all the meetings last week I wonder if one took place setting BJ a playing budget for next season?
If so, I wonder if we might see a retained list released anytime soon?

My feeling is he'll take a few days over it; I noted he wasn't asked about it in the post-Southend interview. Last season's wrote itself as White and Bennett were crocked. Now he'll have to man up.

Come what may with the retained list.

One unsung hero.

Ethan Ebanks-Landell'

Played 45 of 46 league games- only missed 1 through suspension.

The 2 games he didn`t play were the Oldham home game and the Gateshead Cup game - when we conceded 9 goals. (Nine).

I take your point. Part of me thinks this is the chance to sack off all those who got us relegated but Ethan and Rodney have made the best case for a new contract.

Hendo didn't too bad, especially so considering he's weirdly sat so many games out

Its funny how we see things differently.

For me Ebanks-Landell has had a shocking season. I've lost count of the times he's fannied around at the back, lost the ball and we've conceded a goal. There's loads of other times he's misplaced a pass and we've been fortunate to get away with it. I can't be arsed looking for the stats but has he got any assists? Certainly not a lot of goals - 3?

I've heard many people say that he's one of the highest paid players and for that reason also as well as the above, he has to go

Poll: So who do you believe - Hendo or the Board?

He is too slow and always has a mistake in him if he is a big earner he can go for me

3 goals, 3 assists. Of our other defenders he fares well:

John 0G, 2A
Gordon 0, 1
Nevett 0, 1
Armstrong 0, 1
Ferguson 0, 0
Oduroh 1, 0
Keohane 7, 6

So, apart from Keohane who’s often played in midfield, he’s far and away our most productive defender. For all the praise given to Nevett for his passing, I actually think Ebanks-Lansdell is better at it. He’s also won a penalty, and we have the highest amount of clean sheets (9) with him in the team.

Any player that doesn't have a mistake in them surely wouldn't be playing in the National League?

And Odoruh’s goal was the runaway one against Fylde when their keeper went up for a corner.
I’ve mentioned this before but it’s not just the defenders who didn’t chip in with goals but also the midfield.
Apart from SAJ all the eggs were in five baskets.
Three of those are out of contract and another has gone back to his parent club.

No he didn't and if he were ten years younger there'd be no issue but I think time has caught up with him.

Keohane is hopefully offered a contract as he is one of Dales top 5 players....

A different level I know but Finlay Armstrong scored twice for Fleetwood under 21s this afternoon, one being a penalty.

For me I think EEL has had a decent season and is deserving of a new contract. Maybe at reduced terms to reflect the national league level. The way the centre half’s are being asked to play means theres always going to be some mistakes. He might not have that many direct assists but a fair amount of our goals have started from an EEL ball forward. Finding a better replacement will be harder than people might think.

EEL has had a decent season. I’m confident we’ll offer him a deal on vastly reduced terms, but I’m even more confident he’ll get a better offer elsewhere. The same applies to Cam John.

Offers to high earners are going to be nowhere near their current contracts. We have to get value. Hendo falls into that category too but I hope something can be done to keep him at the club, he has been underused this season. He’s shown he’s still got plenty to offer in those appearances he has made.

EEL is on league wages he would have to take a significant pay cut.

Has been very good the last 6-8 games... yes earlier in the season looked out of form and not 100% fit.

If he can fit into the new budget and give us 40 games like the last 6-8 then absolutely another season would give us some continuity at the back.

Its a new dawn, I am hoping Jim is pretty ruthless with the cull and then we recruit well to have a real go at the National League 2024/5.

Id be surprised if Jimmy doesn't get an offer to move elsewhere.

Hendo i think is done..outstanding service.

Hayes clearly will be back in the FL with some team prob not Fwood.

Nevett will be gone.

Striker position needs sorting.

I am also in the camp that we should retain both EEL and Rodney.
At this level EEL is as good or not better than the majority of centre halves.
Rodney since his return has made a hell of a difference to our attacking threat. He is strong, quick and packs a powerful shot. If he remains fit for a full season he would easily get 20 plus goals.
Obviously though none of know what offers they may have had elsewhere or what their wage demands are.
Time will tell.

It will be interesting to see what our playing budget is next season, clearly they will not be pumping millions into it but the Ogden statement they say we will have a playoff budget.

From McNulty's comments throughout the season it hasn't felt like we've had a playoff budget this season.

In regards to the retained list, I can take or leave EEL, Keohane should get a new deal, I expect John to leave, Hendo will be completely up to him I would imagine, Hays next to no chance of him being here.

I'd offer contracts to John, Gordon, Jimmy K & Hendo.

Think John has been outstanding this season, especially after a nightmare year in League 2.

I don't think you're finding much better than Gordon at this level, especially with a possible re-sale value at his age should he improve, and given he was linked to both Man United & Liverpool only 3 years ago, that's quite possible.

Keohane speaks for himself, however I can see a League Two team taking a chance on him.

Hendo scored 11 goals and got 2 assists, averaging a goal contribution every 189 mins. I feel that's more than worthy of offering a living legend one last dance, although if I was him I'd be inclined to drop a couple of divisions if I was to carry on.

In terms of letting go:

EEL - best of a bad bunch of CBs (Nevitt aside), hasn't redeemed himself from last season nevermind whatever league wage he is still on.

Clayton - although I do rate him, not keen for having a passenger who's possibly one of our biggest earners?

Sinclair - hit and miss. Would rather have him than Jez, but wouldn't be overly sad to see him go.

Rodney - good stats at the back end of the season, however I don't remember a particularly good performance? I actually think he was quite poor. Impressed he came back so strongly goalscoring-wise, which I suppose is all that matters, and hope he can stay fit wherever he ends up but I don't think we should be taking another chance to have a key player out for over half a season again.

There's a lot of gaps to fill, but we're already in an obviously much better position than last season, even should nobody renew their deals.

I can't agree with that when we have the likes of Max Taylor on our books.

Wouldn't be that gutted to see any out of contract player go to be honest but also mindful that it will be a big recruitment job again so I'd offer deals to the likes of Jimmy Keohane (versatility and experience), Ian Henderson (Sentimental reasons and the fact he still has the ability to change games in brief spells), Tyrese Sinclair (has the ability to create something out of nothing despite being frustrating), Devante Rodney (Will score goals at this level if he can stay fit) and Gordon (doubt he's on a big wage and been plenty solid enough)

Ebanks-Landell, John, Taylor, B Kelly, Clayton and Afuye can all go for me.

If I hadn't seen such riches, I could live with being poor

This release list will tell us a lot about McNulty as a manager.

Last year it was dictated by lack of funds, player triggering options to extend and much uncertainty.

This year he can plan more and decisions need to be made.

He’s more room to manoeuvre than Hinshelwood, the new man at York, has.
Just been looking at their retained list and they’ve 24 players already under contract for next season and have offered further deals to three of last year’s squad who were out of contract.
Not much room for shapeshifting there unless they pay some off.
I wonder how much their money man pumps in every month to top-up that payroll although I do accept that their gates are double those of Dale.

Forgot about Taylor, he can go, think we can get better
