The player Lowe was referring to after the game on Saturday about talking to a player who was a real handful and his agent was at the game on Monday. He’s off to a club that can pay him more though sadly. Accy? 😂😂

Probably Ashley Barnes, going to Norwich. We're linked with a MF out of contract at Wycombe. Question, who will finish higher next Season PNE or Plymouth. Think they got the better Manager.

Lewis Wing looked like a good player earlier in his career. Looks like he's stepped down a level and ready for another go in the Championship. Also scores screamers. I'd quite like us to sign him if we're losing 1 or 2 midfielders.

Woodburn not staying… seems we offered to keep him but he’s turned us down.
Whiteman definitely on his way… note from his last interview he used the phrase ‘I’ve loved it here’. Past tense a bit of a giveaway.
DJ? Who knows. Looks like he’s been offered a new deal on reduced terms and is thinking things over. He’ll have better deals available but not much better… stick or twist?

Can’t lose too much quality from that squad.

They’re going all out on another site and getting rid of the defence. Arguably the better functioning part of the team.

I don’t mind selling Whiteman if it gives us a bit to spend, should’ve sold him in Jan before he entered the last 12 months of his contract.

Agitation
Next stage is meltdown.
If Whiteman goes, without a proven replacement, we are severely weakened unless McCann could tried in that role

We have a few ok stoppers but most of them are only that. Get rid of Greg (bit harsh but the only one OoC) and Bauer and bring in a couple of young, mobile defenders. Attempting to play a passing game needs to start from the back and our defenders aren’t capable. Football has moved on from a defender just being able to head and kick a ball.

We don’t have right backs. So we need effective wing backs. We don’t have those either. I do appreciate the efforts of Brad Potts however.

Yep, the only position that doesn’t need any attention is the goalkeeping department and even that could do with a different 3rd choice keeper as we’ll be stunting Pardic’s development by not giving him adequate loans.

Cole Stockton is worth a cheap gamble, he knows where the goal is. It’s a gamble but could work out. Buy one get one free………Big Connor Ripley released

As for Stockton hasn't there been enough cheap punts on forwards not one of which has paid off? For me he is one of those players who will get goals at a lower league level but that's it.....he doesn't work hard enough for the team. Couldn't tell you if he has any pace because I've never seen him run. To be fair he can finish...but others have to do all the work.

Retained list out, quite frightening reading over that confirmed squad. 15 senior players that includes Ched who might not play again and Riis recovering from an ACL.

Not PNE but a reported ex-target ….another player with nothing better to do with his money:-
Ivan Toney Banned for 8 months until January 16th 2024 and fined 50k for breaching betting rules
We love signing a ‘Bad Boy’ get the bid in 🤣🤣🤣

I thought Woodburn would be gone but an appearances clause has been triggered so he stays! Great. Still haven’t renewed but not ruling out a rush of blood.

I’ll always renew but I’m a bit disappointed with the Woodburn deal. I expect DJ to reject, I’d be surprised if Brady isn’t looking elsewhere before accepting. Cunningham isn’t a contract I would have offered until some proof he’s fully fit.
Olusunde up there with worse ever signings.

Lazy, lazy, lazy.
Relegation fodder....Woodburn, Brady, Cunningham, Bauer absolute joke. Just because players are contratced doewsn't mean to say that you can't make them available to others.

That retained list to me shows a total lack of interest in improving the squad and tells me that the signings we will be making will be out of the bottom drawer as usual I could be wrong wrong but dont hold out much hope

As for renewing my season ticket. Waiting for my private pension to come was meant to start in march but they messed up with policy numbers and due with payment soon. When it does I will commit. Or be committed you decide
