The Bard Posted May 10, 2021 Report Share Posted May 10, 2021 Baker - No Mariappa- Yes - 1 year as back up Rowe- No Hunt- No Watkins- No Walsh- Dunno Simpson-Yep - 1 year as back up Gilmartin- No Lansbury- No Diedhiou- No Weinmann- New deal (2 years?), but on lower terms than before. Paterson- No contract offer Adelakun - Dunno possibly the most interesting as Nige has never seen him and we could probably keep him for a relatively low wage.

Whether he does or not is a different matter. Matty James looking like he’s staying at Coventry. Which might in a funny way lessen Walsh’s options! I prefer to ignore your other suggestion Lots of talk that they are selling Gustavo Hamer though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Paterson is sorted elsewhere (so is Diedhiou) & that Mariappa would only stay if Baker turns our offer down. Expect the rest to go, Hunt, Rowe, Watkins, Lansbury, Adelakun, Wollacott (who you haven’t included) & Gilmartin, unless Pearson gets rid of Mountain instead. It seems pretty much everyone agrees who needs releasing. Looks like a few question marks over Simpson, Mariappa and Adelakun. Interesting. 4 hours ago, GrahamC said: Weimann, Simpson, Baker & Walsh.

Baker - Keep Mariappa- Keep Rowe- Gone Hunt- Gone Watkins- Gone Walsh- Keep Simpson- Keep Gilmartin- Gone Lansbury- Keep Diedhiou- Gone Weinmann- Keep Paterson- Keep Adelakun - Gone Baker and Weimann are 50/50 for me... Walsh is a possible but none of us can be sure if he is up to Champ standard... The rest can be released Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshtonRobin21 Posted May 10, 2021 Report Share Posted May 10, 2021 I think Pearson will Keep: Weimann, Baker, Walsh, Simpson. However, I'm more worried about who is working on finding replacements for those players without Ashton's successor in place. Some decent out of contract players available from other clubs, but feel we may arrive late to the negotiations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evy11_BCFC Posted May 10, 2021 Report Share Posted May 10, 2021 Baker - Release (Expensive with cheaper, more reliable alternatives available) Mariappa- Release Rowe- Release Hunt- Release Watkins- Release Walsh- Offer new deal Simpson- Think he’ll be kept on but not seen enough to make a judgement. RB a position of priority. Gilmartin- Release Lansbury- Release Diedhiou- Release Weinmann- Take up 1 year option Paterson- Release (Not against a reduced deal but think he’ll get offers elsewhere) Adelakun - Release Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WirralRobin Posted May 11, 2021 Report Share Posted May 11, 2021 13 hours ago, JoeAman08 said: I’d be disappointed if we kept more than 3 of that list. Baker - no point as usually injured. Not paying him 20k a week to be available 60-70% of the time in a good year. Pass Mariappa - I am all for experienced players but he will be 35 during next season. Pass Simpson - same as Mariappa pass Rowe - not a good enough backup at any position even though versatile. He really regressed after his injury. 33 next season so pass Hunt - I have stuck with him for a long time but this season was a big regression on what was at best slightly above average RB. Pass Watkins - I think he is useful but often injured and probably on a surprisingly high wage. Not paying that for backup. Pass Lansbury - I can see merit to it. Think he started to show some signs of life. Played as a holding midfielder which I don’t think he is though. So I’ll pass and look for a more suitable type to that position who can run a game like NP seems to want. Gilmartin - pass Walsh - I’d pass personally. Could regret it but I get the feeling he expects to play week in and week out but has never shown enough consistency with us for it. However, if NP offers him a deal then I’ll trust his judgement. Fam - think he has been gone for awhile now. I think the stick he is receiving is a bit OTT as he is a striker in the worst attacking team in championship history(could tell it that way with the shots stat). But anyway pass Weimann - extending. I used to hate the excuse about weimann being a worker when his quality let us down. I also had some expectation of football being played. Now, I think we need that graft and experience over the next 2 seasons. Keep Paterson - when pato and weimann went down injured is when our season really went up into flames. I’ll get the he isn’t consistent but he hasn’t been in a consistent position to get the best from him. 5 goals and 7 assists in half a season central with Bobby Reid. Hell he was at a goal contribution every 4 games (2 goals 3 assists in 20 compared to Palmer 3 goals 2 assists in 35) this season in a bad attacking side. He is a Bristol City level attacking player. If he was any better he’d be at a better club. I am keeping as a squad option. Adelakun - pass. Could regret it but think less chance than Walsh that we’d regret. So for me I’d keep Weimann and Paterson 100%. Can be persuaded into Walsh and a lesser extent Lansbury. Everyone else can just go and we rebuild with what is here. Had to laugh at the notion that Walsh 'has never shown enough consistency for us' to get a new deal. By my count he's started just 8 games for us over 3 seasons (with his successful Coventry spell in the middle) and 7 of those starts were as a 20 or 21 year old. Is that really enough time on the pitch to be able to talk accurately about his consistency? - I'm sure there are plenty of valid reasons not to offer Walsh a deal if we decide not to but 'consistency' is surely not one of them.

If he was consistent he would have played more, no? I did also say with us. At the minute he is seemingly behind at least 3 CMs at the club next season if you even discount Palmer.

IAmNick Posted May 11, 2021 Report Share Posted May 11, 2021 Baker - Keep on reduced terms. I still think he's a good player Mariappa - Keep as backup / rotation Rowe- Gone Hunt- Gone Watkins- Gone Walsh- Gone Simpson- Pay him whatever he wants because the match day threads and forum in general are better with him here Gilmartin- Gone Lansbury- Keep. I think he's good and with a load of youngsters involved next year we need experience badly Diédhiou- Gone Weimann- Keep Paterson- Gone Adelakun - Gone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sturny Posted May 12, 2021 Report Share Posted May 12, 2021 Surprised seeing so many people wanting to keep Mariappa, from what i've seen he's been awful and he can't be on a cheap wage either. If we're to start next season with him in the defensive line we've failed this clear out. Same goes for Tommy Rowe our defense has been shambolic and he's been a consistent part of it.

A third of what Baker is on, apparently. He was available for selection 35 times & wasn’t even with us for the first 11, whereas Baker was available 3 times out of 46. Perhaps that’s why? I don’t think many see him as a regular starter, more as a reliable squad man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cidered abroad Posted May 12, 2021 Report Share Posted May 12, 2021 He is thirty four, a second centre half, not the towering leader centre half that we need. Cundy appears to be a good "pathway" back up for the new centre half. With Vyner, Kalas, Moore, Towler and maybe Baker as second centre halves, why would we need Mariappa?
