Bob Harris was a decent left-back at Queens and Sheff Utd but hasn't played much in the last couple of seasons. Not sure if he 's been injured or what.

Think we were after Jay O'Shea when he first came over from Ireland? Then Birmingham showed interest and that was that!

Aye I was thinking he stands out from that list but I'm guessing he'll get a League One team at least.

Sylvan Ebanks-Blake to replace Jabo!

Just had a text reply back from Gary Liddle.

"re: Chesterfield players. No, they're all tat. Why do you think I left."

Jay O'Shea has been on loan at Sheffield United since January, so I assume he'll be signing for them permanently.

Dan Jones would be a great signing for any league 2 side, Missed half of last season with an ankle fracture. Did get sacked by Port Vale for breaking a lad's jaw mind.

Struggling to see that Proctor is going to get much pitch time in the Championship next year, can see a mutual agreement happening

Norwich City - Sebastien Bassong, Steven Whittaker, Ryan Bennett, Youssouf Mulumbu, Michael Turner and Kyle Lafferty.

Whittaker will be 33 next month and could be interested in moving closer to his homeland?

I see Zander Diamond has been released by Northampton. Proven quality CB at league 2 level and with him being Scottish that might give us an advantage.

Adam Smith, Released by Northampton, 24 year old. From Sunderland. League 2 keeper of the year 2016.

Seen Hibs linked but just think it was a rumour site.

On Naismith,
Scored a cracker on Saturday.
Then got sent off near the end for cutting a Leeds player in half.
Still seems to find the space well mind.

I remember saying we should go for him when he left Oldham a few years back...

A centre back with a bit of pace would be useful, as our back 4 doesn't have any.

Diamond's not your man then!

Could he play in some kind of midfield formation?

I don't think he's cut out for that.

Off topic melbourne,hope Junior is on the mend.

Thanks Pete.

May have well have called this thread 'look what you could have won'.

All of the players listed above will want money as payment and not the buttons that Jenkins will offer them.

With there being no more cash we will no doubt be scouring non league clubs looking for youngsters who will take some Pioneer meat as part of their wages.

Most of our bigger earners are already signed up for next season, so can't see there being too much play in the Budget?

A promotion may change that though...

Am i right in thinking Jones and Brisley were the only free agents we signed last year?

LakesBlue1 wrote: Am i right in thinking Jones and Brisley were the only free agents we signed last year?

Jones had been released by Oldham, not sure on Brisley as he was still described as a Peterborough player when we signed him?

LakesBlue1 wrote: Am i right in thinking Jones and Brisley were the only free agents we signed last year?

Nope. Devitt and S.Miller were at the end of their morecambe contracts, as was Reggie at Mansfield.

Noticed you edited as I was typing!

All 3 mentioned were offered new deals at Morecambe/Mansfield but elected to turn them down and sign for us. As such they weren't 'Free Agents' as they hadn't been released...

Depends how you define a free agent I guess.

Imo if a players contract isn't renewed (whether that be the clubs decision or the players) and are therefore not tied to a club and other clubs are "free" to sign the player without going through a club, then that makes them a free agent.

All the above were free agents.

A free agent is a player who is eligible to sign with any club; i.e., not under contract to any specific team.
A player who is under contract at present but who is allowed to solicit offers from other teams: i.e, expiring/expired contract or Bosman.

Wether a players contract has expired or not you still have to deal with his last club as they will retain his registration and certain other rights in my opinion a free agent is a player whos contract has come to an end and not been offered a new one if the previous club have made him an offer there are 3 scenarios one he formally rejects it and then his club indicate they dont wish to make a further offer then he too becomes a free agent if they make him another one and he has it to consider then he isnt one just yet. or he accepts it in which case its end of story.

Brad Inman and Luke James available at Peterborough, linked with both before I think (James listed as Peterborough do that with all with a year left)?

Samir Nabi's brother Adil available too...

m.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/39784935

Just say we fluked promotion I'd be more inclined for someone to help Jenkins find his chequebook and launch a bid for Marcus Maddison. (I realise there's not a cat in hells chance of either happening).

I wonder how much we could've got Maddison for when he was at Gateshead? At least we got Josh Gillies instead, nice work by the 'scout'.

Is Brad Inman free?

He seams like a good fit for the team.

Wonder if they.ll be available as a BOGOF Deal.?

BOARD EDIT:
Certainly no victim of any Club, just constantly shouting about something that doesn't interest anyone and spoils a thread more often than not.

Diamonds are a Curle's best friend

Oldham: Lee Croft, Josh Law, Jamie Reckord, Michael Ngoo, Lee Knight and Charles Dunne.

Hallam Hope released by Bury...

Surely if we went in for him January and don't go up, he'll be coming. With an out of contract Ibehre who could well go, and Proctor probably not fancying staying with us in the same division, Hope would be a good signing and is pretty versatile.

Hope was on his way to Dubai this morning, Very quick to get away, Wonder if he has something sorted already.

Would expect a glut of released lists this next couple of days...

re Hope going on holiday - more likely he knows that nothing tends to get sorted much before mid June so will be a quiet few weeks while teams are still sorting budgets, retained lists or even which division they are in etc.

His agent will be looking after any offers.

Bowditch and Maynard from MK Dons? Probs don't fancy coming this far North!

Nabi's brother might be a good call, especially if his brother is still here. Although the fact that KC hasn't even had him on the bench it seems unlikely.

If were not offering Crocombe a new contract then Rabchuka might be a good option lots of experience and more likely to try and give Gillespie a run for his money

Would have thought any of those MK Dons players would get in our side. Powell already signed for Northampton. Burns was their reserve keeper, he could be worth a punt

We had Rachubka on trial, think it was last season. Shite was the verdict...

New 1st team keeper required, especially if we go up. Don't need a keeper for back up, needs to be a 1st choice keeper.

John Ruddy is missing from the list of released Norwich players.
