It was Barton I was most impressed with at the Arsenal game last season. Thought he edged it over the others. Glad to see he's kept on.

Not hugely surprised with most of those, Yearn aside. Chadwick will I assume be third choice keeper (as he seems to be already), and I would hope a few of the others will be used in preseason and cup games. Slightly disappointing to see only one of the u18s being offered professional terms after having 3 or 4 do so the last few seasons but I guess that's how it is sometimes.

Hope Yearn doesn't end up in the North of the County given his links to Jimmy Unwin

Yup, surprised by Yearn. Cracking player from whenever I've seen him so I'm assuming it's his choice, although I thought him, McConnell and Hoddle were given three year deals tbh. Must've just been Hoddle.
Anyway, good luck to all the lads released today.

Someone on here, on good authority, said Hoddle's was 3 years. Was just assumptions about the length of Yearn's and McConnell's.

We did the same with Smith, Knibbs and Mitov. Imagine the sickener if he goes to that lot, cracks it and gets sold for a lot of money. Shudder.

I think that's more than likely the case as i know someone who knows Kai's dad and he was telling me a couple of months ago that he wanted away due to being frustrated at not getting anywhere near the 1st team squad. Given how GM has spoken about he is has no issues integrating youth I'm surprised KY hasn't maybe given it another 12 months as he could well have forced his way much more next season, I guess we'll never know that now and yes I'd also give you good odds of him being in the blue of scum next year and then loaned straight out to someone like Barnet.

I've heard rumblings that it was more the youngsters that lost faith in Bonner for not being picked - although probably bullshine as the person telling the story said they got upset after not getting a chance in the Spurs U21 game, but they did all play that day.

He can only be near the squad if he’s fit, which he hasn’t been for a huge chunk of the season. I’m guessing he didn’t like what we had planned for him next season so is taking his chances elsewhere.

We'd be due compensation if we've offered him a pro deal wouldn't we? Not 100% how that all works these days.
