Re: Aministration
 

Think Callum is also out of contract, don’t think we have option but I could be wrong.
Can’t see Callum or Clicker agreeing.
I’d offer Yosser, Seamus, Maguire/Barclay (just!) and Zehn Mohammed extensions.
Also Perritt and Regan Ogle if they were out of contract
Dimi I’d understand wanting a move back closer to home. (Walsall interested??)

Re: Aministration
 

Johnson is out of contract I believe will be going along with the rest out of contract unfortunately unless something changes dramatically when the game does return it will be a vastly different Stanley side.

Re: Aministration
 

Could be a heck of a lot of talent available on free transfers elsewhere.
I wouldn’t view our situation as a complete negative.

Realistically how many of those out of contract would we be keeping if Covid-19 didn’t happen.
My guess is very few anyway.

Re: Aministration
 

Andy d, You might consider the role of the Championship.

In normal circumstances, any EFL regulation change requires the majority of the 24 clubs in the Championship to vote in favour, plus the majority of the whole 71-club structure.

This system places significant power with the Championship. However, it could be argued that it should not be so strong in determining the future direction of the leagues below.

Hopefully by close of business today League One and Two over ....... with terms for promotion / relegation to be resolved.

Re: Aministration
 

Josh,

I might have misunderstood this or even interpreted it wrong but didn't Andy say no contract extensions will be offered and 30/6 plus a month's notice and that's it for pay ?

On that basis can't see any options being exercised either.

I'm assuming Sean's recovery is nearly complete.

However of the retained Finlay wont be doing a much .......... for a quarter of the season.

Re: Aministration
 

Would take everything Andy tweets with a pinch of salt.
Presume waiting for decisions to be made - players will be informed of situation - reckon it could go down to last minute.
Next few weeks will be massive.

Re: Aministration
 

But yes - my comments were meant more in an ideal world scenario.
Yes the situation is no where near ideal - however in reply to the negative comments about the situation leaving us with no players - realistically I could only see us keeping a small number of the out of contract players anyway.

Completely my view however - no connection to the club in this sense etc.

Re: Aministration
 

What you reckon to this Josh ?

"Wycombe have most to gain. If the play-offs were scrapped and points-per-game average implemented, they would move from eighth to third and be heading for the Championship for the first time in their history"

Some big clubs might have something to say !!!

Re: Aministration
 

Not a fan of PPG (even weighted for home/away etc)
HOWEVER, if that was agreed - good luck to Wycombe! well run club.

I think efforts will be made to finish the season , if finances/contracts issue can be sorted.

Re: Aministration
 

Just shows how ridiculous it would be to use some concocted formula like PPG.
If you look at the most recent form over 8 games, Wycombe (I have no gripe against them, I’ve always enjoyed trips there, good club) are barely above mid-table.
Hope the EFL has a good lawyer if they do impose PPG.

Re: Aministration
 

Take everything that Andy Holt says on twitter with a pinch of salt at least Andy had thoughts similar to mine at the beginning of this pandemic when pre Portsmouth game he was tweeting about not sending the team down to play. Take what the premiership and government say about lower leagues with a large pinch of salt is more the norm.They seem to think that the public would be boosted by showing games like we have nothing else to think about, shot down in a survey only 19% agreed, they should have cancelled the lot at the beginning and start again when we can all start together.

Re: Aministration
 

I’d look at the demographics of that survey before making any judgment on it.
It’s easy to manipulate something like that to get the answer you (the media in this case) want.

Re: Aministration
 

Not manipating anything just passing on a comment my own wish in all of this is that the welfare of all football is looked after as much as it is possible to do so, not risking it's future concentrating on short term risks to certain clubs personal,s health and the long term health of the game as an whole.

Re: Aministration
 

Sorry Andy, I wasn’t implementing yourself to be manipulating the outcome. More so the YouGov poll. Look at the demographics of who was asked.

Re: Aministration
 

I agree Josh.
Regardless of covid-19 we have to accept that some departures maybe we'd prefer not to happen.
It's players such as Yosser and Seamus that I cant understand us not keeping for another year.
Solid pros such as these two are a Godsend if again we will be taking chances with kids.
Just my opinion.
