We are going down and have been for sometime.
Personally, I would transfer list the likes of Hannnah, Turnbull, James etc and tell them to find clubs.
I would play Crawford and Roberts, in midfield. Jones, at the back and Archer, upfront and try and build a team around them.
It may be worth giving some non contract platers a go from the lower leagues.
The rest of the squad can be cleared out at the end of the season.

I agree, but I can't see anybody taking any of them.
Why would any of them go when they've got the security of another year? A team would have to match what they're on here for another season and a half. Can't think of a team daft enough to do it.

Agreed need pretty much a clean sweep, including Bignot. Let us hope that those journeyman with 2 year deals have a relegation clause built into their contracts.

If that is so, then stop playing them now.

Should be Tony Allens first job Monday
The figures I am hearing are eye watering for all 3 though.
Worryingly I have heard a rumour Halls and McComb have a 30 game trigger for a second year. Both on around 27 games.
Need to get a grip of this now or we will literally be able to afford them and kids next season.

We need to ensure that if any contracts have trigger clauses, they are not triggered. As many of this bunch as possible need to be shipped out at the earliest opportunity. Whether that is the end of April, or earlier. It must not be later. You would hope that the two year deals include relegation and/or minimum number of appearances made clauses. But I suspect they don't.

If we cant get rid then McGuire and Tony Allen's sackings should be used to pay them off.

What a fucking mess, did we not see the issues the Clampits up the road had with trigger contracts?

Mark is right, we need to look at this as a business model and not fans.any player who has an extension clause built in to their contract should be put on gardening leave when they approach it.if this season is to be a right off then we have to protect season 18/19 budget as much as we can.youth players may have to be used but fans will take that i am sure as long as it is discussed and explained upfront.

There is a very simple way to approach this.
Out of these players who is going to do a job for us in the conference north. And by do a job I mean avoid relegation because that is a brutal league.
If players are too old or not suitable then we need to instigate a cull. We’ll know that in 5 games or less for sure where we are going to be next season. Don’t delay after that. Ship them out. Just get rid.

I would keep Archer. The rest of the senior players can go.

If we wanted hannah off the wage bill we had the perfect opportunity last week when he told a 14 year old to f.off,could of been sacked for that surely, but obviously were happy to keep paying him for 2 year's, or is it that the board are to spinless or clueless?

Suspend him while an investigation takes place, and then judge as necessary. Surely telling a customer to F off breaks the club's code of conduct. Saves us £40k?? As MM said the other month, we need to grow up. Let's start by being mature and grown up and making adult decisions about our club.

That’s right next to a match officials footballers must be the most abused people on the planet, and let’s remember our players are not on mega wages, I could handle any amount of abuse for £100k a week😀

Usually I’d never ask but given the disdain/disrespect downright fucking contempt these heartless arseholes have shown all season why not share it? Can’t get worse than it already is and if they’re taking the club to the cleaners both on the field and off let’s hear it.
