SecretSam Posted May 13, 2021 Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 Pffft. I think that's just cobbled together, no actual ITK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyClapper Posted May 13, 2021 Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 Is this the same source that told us about our imminent new DOF? A big pinch of salt. Hate to say it but I think I’ll wait until it’s on the OS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted May 13, 2021 Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 I wouldn’t believe that article. For a start, they refer to these out of contract players as “stars”. Clearly no proper inside knowledge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesBCFC Posted May 13, 2021 Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 "In mass" not "en mass". Source from Nottingham Forest's ground. Even if the players released is accurate it's a poorly written piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonBristolian Posted May 13, 2021 Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 The fact they're not naming the eleven makes me question how ITK they are. I think it will be between 9 and 12 players released, and 11 could well be right, but that doesn't mean I necessarily think this site knows any more than we do.

Poorly written in either case! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamC Posted May 13, 2021 Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 I think it’s probably correct. Including Sessegnon, Gilmartin & Wollacott we have 15 either out of contract or whose loan ends. Doubt any of those named in the article are staying & so 11 going would mean that 4 are, so Weimann, Walsh, Simpson and either Baker or Mariappa as those 4 makes a lot of sense.

Fordy62 Posted May 13, 2021 Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 39 minutes ago, And Its Smith said: One will be Weimann the other will be either Baker, Simpson or Walsh surely Yep. I’m certain one would be Weimann. I’d hope Walsh was the second. Although you can’t help but feel if Walsh has signed a new deal it’s unlikely to be announced at the time of the released list... so he’s probably gone too.

Finley_Smith10 Posted May 13, 2021 Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 Weimann and Walsh in my opinion. Maybe Simpson aswell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be really pleased if Weimann and Walsh stayed. Pretty torn on all three of Simpson, Baker and Mariappa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carey 6 Posted May 13, 2021 Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 If this is true then it's great news. Expect it'll be Simpson & Weimann who stay. I don't think Walsh will be here next season, wouldn't complain if he's kept on though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would we be due compensation / fee for Walsh due to his age as long as terms are offered if he chooses to move on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe so, I'm not sure if it's dependant on if he's been offered a contract though. FWIW I was told a few weeks back he wasn't staying and was big interest from Derby, but the state that they're in I can't see that one happening. So interested to see how it goes with him. Certainly a decent player there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus Ryley Towler, Sam Pearson and Tommy Conway. Although I suspect they’ve already been extended, and pending longer deals this summer we will get an update at some point.
