Ripley and Oforborh are must keep. Drinan annd Glatzel would be nice to keep. I remember Ollie being a little circumspect about Drinan a few weeks back, I think he tipped his hand a little when talking about his injury. Glatzel needs to start and score a few over the next nine games.

Jury still out on Drinan for me, yes he has shown glimpses in his recent games where he has looked pretty good but in the main he is a bang average L2 striker and not really done enough to earn a contract IMO.
Jury also out on McGurk, yes he has tons of skill but putting that into action regularly seems to be the issue.
Ripley is a must keep as is Ofoborh, Cox is hit and miss as is Glatzel who at times looks great but others looks a passenger.
I would 100% let Cain go, theres better out there for free I am sure in a similar role.
I would keep Drinan. I think he was just coming into his own under a manager that was getting the best out of him. Shame about the timing of the injury. I would definitely extend him.

Think Drinans form pre injury puts him in the category of a player that’s handy to keep about if on the right wage for a squad player. Anything higher wage wise and you’re probably okay to look at investing that level of budget into other options.

Sonny Hart on a two year deal?
Good grief.
Hasn't it been suggested that he actually isn't a half bad player or is that just anther rumour? I would 100% let Cain go, theres better out there for free I am sure in a similar role.
Wasn't it always suggested that we only ever signed him as company for Clayton anyway?

😁 Fair enough but how good d'you think you have to be to go up? Think we've shown in the last dozen or so games we're as good now as any team in this league. I think most of our side would get in the majority of teams in League 2

I mean we’ve been on promotion form this calendar year haven’t we pretty much? Ofoborh is a must. Top priority. Then Ripley & Drinan. After that Cox & Glatzel are worth having as squad options but don’t think we need to necessarily go all out to keep them. I’d say they are replaceable but we’d be just as well off keeping players who are already here, know the team, know the system etc etc

Connor Ripley - maybe if he wants to stay down south Jack Bycroft - yes George Cox - not sure Jake Cain - not sure Nnamdi Oforborh - yes Anton Dworzak -no Sean McGurk - no Paul Glatzel - yes but he’ll get a better offer Aaron Drinan - yes Holloway has pretty much confirmed it.

Nnamdi Oforborh is a must sign for me. Glatzel still has lots of potential, but isn't first off the bench - needs a goal or three will probably end up somewhere like Bromley. George Cox would be a great signing, haven't seen the best of him. Aaron Drinan, if out for at least the beginning of next season is entitled to a duty of care. The goalies are interesting, I don't see Bycroft starting, expect whether Ripley stays or goes will be down to location etc. Jake Cain is frustrating, almost makes a difference starting or off the bench, but see him moving on. I like Dworak, would be a pity to lose him. McGurk, apparently can't follow instructions, so adios which is a shame.

Ripley - Yes Bycroft - If the wage is right for a backup keeper Cox - Not fussed either way Cain - No Ofoborh - Must sign Dworzak - No McGurk - No Glatzel - No, not because I don’t rate him but because we won’t set up for his strengths here. Reinvest the wage in a proper wide forward Drinan - If the wage is right for a squad player

Moonraker article on more scouts watching Ameen.
Not sure there’s much point being concerned about whether he’ll sign here. A normal, well functioning club at this level would probably be in a fight to get him to sign professional terms, let alone us.
Imagine he’ll likely be off to an academy somewhere in the top 2 divisions this summer but given he only signed here from QPR at 16, how much compensation is due to us compared to if he’d been with us for a longer period? Or is it more weighted towards their professional involvements here?

This definately plays a part in any fees, the more 1st team games the more we will get.

And presumably there's no such thing as a "pro option" in a youth contract.
