So after Skapetis, Shariff, Magri, Carreiro, Fitzpatrick & Monthe have all been relased, now 4 U21's have been offered 1 year extensions - Lumley, Gibbon, Sendles-White & Andrade. (See Offish)
Which by my reckoning leaves Harriman, Sutherland, Hitchcock, Balanta, Brown & Laurent with contracts sets to expire next months and no news whether they will be released as well or offered new deals ?
Particularly surprising for the first 3 IMO.
I suspect Dellatorre will be sent home too.
(I think Lennox, Furlong, Kpekawa, Wise, Donaldson, Comley, Mitchell & Pattie are contracted until 2015, Ehmer & Doughty until 2016 and Petrasso until 2017 now) |  | | |  |

Never really understood why Harriman hasn't been our back RB this season, i would deffo give him another year assuming we don't go up and maybe even if we do.
Sutherland is always spoken of highly, but is coming back from a major injury and i've heard Laurent has done OK on loan in the conference. | | | |

I've been very happy with Simpson - very consistant and one of our better buys. But I would certainly have kept Harriman as backup.
I can understand why we might wait to see how well Sutherland recovers, but Hitchcock & Harriman still surprise me.
As for Balanta, I've been surprised on a yearly basis for the last 4 seasons how he's still hanging around. I wonder what he's got on the Club ? | | | |

Perhaps because Simpson is a better right back. In fact hes one of the best in the division. | | | |

"Michael HARRIMAN
Position: Defender
DOB: 23/10/1992
Born: Chichester
A PRODUCT of the R’s youth system, Michael Harriman was handed his senior Rangers debut during a League Cup clash against Rochdale in August 2011 before making his Premier League bow at Wigan Athletic just four days later. The hard-working right-back enjoyed a successful 20-game spell on loan at Wycombe Wanderers in 2012/13 before capping the season with an assured performance in the R’s final day trip to Liverpool. An Under-21 international with the Republic of Ireland, the young defender signed a new two-year contract with Rangers in the summer of 2012, keeping him at Loftus Road until the end of the 2013/14 season."
"Frankie SUTHERLAND
Position: Midfielder
DOB: 06/12/1993
Born: Hillingdon
YOUTH product Frankie Sutherland — with the club since the age of 10 — signed a two-year contract extension at Loftus Road in the summer of 2012. The set-piece specialist was a mainstay in the Elite Development Squad midfield last term, scoring four times from 19 appearances either side of a brief loan stint at Portsmouth. Sutherland captained Marc Bircham’s side for much of the 2012/13 campaign and has represented the Republic of Ireland at both Under-19 and Under-21 level." | | | |

Missing the crucial word 'back up' in my comment, think Harriman should have been our reserve right back and watching Hughes play there hasn't changed my mind on that!
I don't think any of the rest are likely good enough, actually surprised that Andrade got another year as i've seen him play a few times and he looks no more than a League Two player at best. | | | |

Simpson has been excellent for us this season so can see why Harriman hasn't had a look in |  | | |

He should have had a recall clause and been back playing while Simpson was injured. This season has been a real missed opportunity as far as giving younger players 1st team experience. |  |

Obviously yes but I think he was asking why we bought Simpson in the first place
I think Harriman has been having better luck as a tenacious midfielder according to the Gillingham bloke I spoke to the other day. |  |

Agree about Simpson Dave, although there would have been a window of opportunity when Simpson was injured for a couple of months if Harriman was retained as a backup and not shipped out on loan for the season. | | | |

Indeed - Thanks.

I guess they thought if he didn't get injured it was a waste having Harriman in the reserves when we had Onoura to cover as well. Would agree it would have been good to see a few come though this year but not sure any of them are good enough sadly | | | |

Mmmmm !
Equally sadly, I'm not so sure some of the ones we've brought in & played instead are good enough either. | | | |

Brown was released. Isn't Balanta out of contract.
I'm not surprised at those released. There's no point in keeping 20 year olds who aren't going to be good enough
of all the names mentioned we'll be lucky if more than 2 make it. |  |

With regard to Harriman and Hitchcock, I don't think either of them have been outstanding in League 1, although they have had some highlights. Both, I believe, have not been automatic choices.
So the club will probably be hesitant to offer them a new contract if they aren't reasonably convinced they have a future with us in the higher divisions. | | | |

Was the EDS final a last chance saloon for those subsequently released?
I thought Magri looked better than Donaldson. |  | | |
