Ok now we are in January i think its time we start thinking about renewing contracts and thinking about who may be here at the end of the season. So far the players out of contract at the end of the season are:

Lee Cox

Ryan Esson

Richie Foran

Kenny Gillet

Jonny Hayes

David Proctor

Ross Tokely

Jonny Tuffey

Greg Tansey

Gregory Tade (with option of 2nd year)

Billy McKay

Chris Hogg ( Being offered a new contract)

Out of all of these players i'd like us to keep everyone except Proctor and McKay as i think we can get better players in. I was a fan of Proctor but unless theres a vast improvement in his form in the second half of the season i don't think he merits a new contract.

A lot of our key players expire in the summer and thats quite scary. I don't want another overhaul at the end of the season like last time so we need to work hard in signing these players up.

Our loans also expire in the summer Golobart and Williams

It is on BBC sports site now also

Pleased with this news. Im hoping its not just Richie who has been offered a 2 year deal. With the changes made the first thing we need is continuity in the playing squad and im hoping that with Foran agreeing to stay on it will encourage a few more to follow suit.

Foran was always gonna be the first to get a new deal

I expect Hayes to be offered another deal but it's up to him to chose whether he wants to move to further his career Or stay at the place where he is loved

Hayes has already been offered a deal I believe.
