Bit of a strange one if he genuinely wasn't offered a contract (rather than just being asked to take a pay cut). He'll rank as one of our best signings in the last 10 years, and as he'll be 33 in

Wow this is one that has split the fan base. On paper it doesn’t look like a signing that is going to set the world alight and he’s older than the kind of signing that I thought we would be trying to

I wouldn’t call the likes of Aekins, Mininkin, Gale, Lacans, Reynolds, Springer, Jones, Addy etc scraps. These are all quality players.  Plus there’s over 4 months until the first match. People need t

Some really good news over the last couple of days.  I did wonder whether some of the signings mooted for 2024 over the last few months were dependent on gaining promotion but its good to see that we're assembling a squad to challenge yet again.  Where that gets us - well lets not worry about that for now.

Was it just a rumour that Hall was leaving ?

Dunno mate. I'm not close to anything or anyone 😉

He put on his twitter 'thanks for everything over four years etc' which sounded like farewell.

But with the list, I'll wait for official confirmation. Hence Kyle Evans, etc, who I assume had left, but who knows?

I think perhaps things were signed for 2024 which have to be renegotiated now we're championship.

Maybe JD or Bussey were going to leave because they don't want SL, but now they don't need to leave? Hally too?

I have no idea.

Looks like Fev are splashing the cash, and going for it again in 2024.

Not sure about"splashing the cash", reading between the lines of the chairman's open letter I think our overall spend will be significantly less than in the last couple of season, but that the reduction in spending will come partly from a handful of the highest-paid players moving on or retiring, and perhaps a number of players accepting somewhat lower offers.

I don't really listen to rumours about players' salaries but it wouldn't be surprising if Leilua, Ford, Kheirallah, Hall, Kopczak, Moors, maybe Taylor, were amongst our higher earners, and if maybe 4, 5 or 6 of those guys aren't with us next year that could lead to a significant drop in the overall spend.

I think most of us fans will be quite happy if we can keep a significant core of the squad, and the early signs seem quite promising. Most of us are used to fans of other clubs predicting disaster for us year after year so it will be quite amusing if little old Fev are still a competitive team towards the top end of the Championship next season.

Haven't Fev gone bust yet?! Our detractors have been saying for years that we MUST have overspent or gone to the well too often, but here we are again building a squad for our fans to get behind. Once again we have to take our hats off to Mark et al and get behind the team as we generally do.

I should imagine the players staying must be happy with the money offered and can't see anymore £90 grand wages anymore.

You're right, it's a regular accusation. The thing fans of other teams often miss is that we tend to have most players on 12 month contracts, meaning of we have a worse than planned season, we're not left with unaffordable contracts for the following year.

See that Hugh Taylor, who sponsored Joey this year is Ben Reynolds sponsor. Guess that confirms Joey has been released.

Someone mentioned that Joey is retiring, but no official confirmation.

Possibly true, but Joey might still be in negotiation, or indeed set to retire.

Actually IIRC Hugh Taylor sponsored 2 players last year, although one was under the name of Fev Rover, the horse he had a share in, so based on that perhaps there is still a chance for Joey!😀

Craig Hall's departure confirmed.

Unclear at this stage what his "next venture" will be but am sure we'll find out soon.

Within 20 minutes in fact...he's signed for Doncaster.
