Out of the current squad of clowns I would only retain the following
Lynch
Hunt
Astles
Mahon
Alabi
Hughes
Boot the rest out - I will take the job and do it for free for a season so Macca The Clown can be paid off as he hasn't big enough balls to show them the door -

Sir Fred's choices are spot on. Need a complete overhaul of personnel. Been saying for months Chester should go for Whitaker. Also Nolan and Allen from Southport. Also a return for King James.

I would retain
Lynch
Astles
Hughes (no hope)
Hunt
Dawson
Shaw
Mahon
Lloyd (if possible)
Vassell (if possible)
Alibi
There are some very good players currently playing in the west Cheshire league we should be looking at, I know some people will say it's too low a league but given the opportunity I would guarantee a couple of them would definitely not be out of place, there are a couple of very good strikers in that league, and not only have they got a great eye for goal they run their bollox off, chasing every thing down, if you were to make a team out of players from the west Cheshire league and play them against the current Chester side think a few people would get a surprise.
It's no different to players going from non league to the premiership (Vardy) (Smalling)or players going from the Spanish 2nd division (Kante) to the premiership.
Also agree with Nolan and Allen from Southport

Would you trust McCarthy to re- build a team? I think Dawson looks a real find so would add him to that list along with Shaw, and if possible Lloyd. |

I think Lynch is part of the problem. At fault for 2 of the goals last night.

Retained list next season ... there may be no NEXT SEASON with McCarthy, Maguire and the current sleeping board in place.
Who's decision was it to extent his contract? Who is going to take responsibility? Was it Maguire (who was responsible for Stockport's slide into admin), was it a board decision. It's far worse than last season. If by some miracle we escape relegation this season do we still sack McCarthy. I would say yes.

Pointless thread - everyone's retained! Alabi and Hughes will be off, with the fee for Hughes just about recovering our debts from this season. Those with no offers elsewhere will re-sign, McCarthy will hang on until the end of June, pick up the scraps and then Mark McGuire will come out discussing the fabulous season ticket sales as a record 200 are sold. Club board sits around looking bewildered as to why people won't turn up and hand over £18 each week to watch the leftovers pretend to be footballers and we go around in circles again. All but the ones living in the club's fantasy land can surely see this scenario playing out.

This story about everyone being retained can't be true can it? Surely it is just hearsay? You need to improve season after season and with a lot of these players we are just going backwards.

Because the people running the club are sitting on their hands with nobody taking responsibility for the situation we find ourselves in . Few people thought it was a good idea to make Jon the manager in the first place apart from those running the club and to then offer a two and a half year extension on his contract when he had proved nothing was a crazy idea . |

Also I'd love to see how many season tickets are sold on the back of it. |

Exactly so if they have the raw ability maybe given further training with better coaches and better players they could become better players, it's not like we are overrun with talented players, you really believe there aren't players out there who could offer more than Richards does |

Don't think there's anything wrong with looking at any player though, even if they are in the West Cheshire league. On balance though it doesn't seem to be worth the time - you'd have to spend a lot of time scouting, probably bringing the players in for a trial etc. - and the likelihood of getting a player that can contribute to the squad seems small. |

Yeh I understand what your saying, we have tried a few ex U21 like Obrien and Marsh who has hardly had a look in since he joined, I was just thinking with our limited resources maybe it would be worth a look, there's got to be some good ones out there, like you say it's just finding them |

Lynch
Astles
Hunt
Dawson
Shaw
Mahon
Akintunde
Alabi
I think the remaining couple of months will determine whether Alabi stays. We continue poorly and just about stay in the league (or even get relegated) and Alabi will have seen enough and move onto a better team. If we finish stronger Alabi may see potential for a good season ahead and stay. Alabi and a new defensive assistant absolutely crucial for me, no two bigger signings this summer. If McCarthy is seriously doing the defensive work that's an absolute joke.
