New Contracts or Let Go?

So when January 1st comes around the transfer window opens and 3 of our squad are out of contract Trotman, Blackman and Bencherif and the loan deal for Reckord expires. Also, i believe Obadeyi and Lavery will have left by then as they are only on one month deals. So my question is who should we offer a new contract too or try and resign on loan from the 6 mentioned? or should John Sheridan look to replace these 6 with new blood to try and push the team on and up the leagues?

For me, i would resign Trotman, im 50/50 on Bencherif and Blackman offers nothing and hasnt played in ages so i would let him go. Reckord i would try and bring him back till the end of the season, i havent seen enough of Lavery to judge and Obadeyi i am again 50/50.

Would Defo sign Trotman, Blackman and Reckord can go. undecided about the others.

Only Trotman and Obadeyi that I would like to be here after 1st January. but the only down point to this, have we got the time to bed in the new personal?

I think it is time to finally say "Adios" to Wotton at the end of this season. As for the rest dont get me started.

I'd keep mccormick, the rest are various degree's of shite, most on their last stop before non league football.

I would try and sign Ruben Reid not as a goalscorer but just as a lump who causes a nuisance and draws defenders onto him, then pull out all the stops to get a quick and fast striker who can get us that 15-20 goals a season that could put us in the mix.
Getting that kind of L2 player for a club like ours should be no problem at all, unfortunately Brent has other ideas for PAFC.

its january people not the summer lol

Mid table at the moment looks like quite a climb - average squad, manager who is not particulary creative and a reluctant owner who.....(best not go there) = 20th position or so.  

Maybe keep Trotman. Blackman plus the three short-term loanees (Reckord, Lavery, Obadeyi) I wouldn't extend their deals.

I'd also be offering up Branston and Wotton for free transfers but doubt very few bite, if at all.

I have a feeling Branston will be off at some point in January albeit free transfer, loan or released.

I think Branno is the leagues most travelled player something like 22 clubs, agree could well be off in Jan as he is not playing regularly. He won't have a problem getting another job.

Keep Trotman. Try and get another deal for Obadeyi. Maybe Lavery. The rest - bin 'em now.
