Brady assisted more goals for the opposition than he did for us. As for Woodburn, I have no words. Once again for a club with a low budget we still manage to throw away most of it. Just get Ridsdale out of our club ASAP, the dinosaur is bloody clueless. Does he think Woodburn is one of his "2 out of 5" good signings??

Ridsdale, Hemmings, Lowe, Revitt, you can all stick your season ticket renewal up your arse. That squad is dogshit and would struggle to hold its own in League 1 let alone the Championship, and we all know there's no money for decent signings to improve things. Fucking hate this club at the moment.

Looks like same again next year. Few injury proned players in the list, plus youngsters and all the other 'bang' average championship (?) players in there still. Cunningham, Olosunde, DJ, Brady all up for negotiation too. Let's hope we strengthen & bring some new blood in . Pretty disappointing as keeping Woodburn on says a lot too about our current ambition. Sell before we can buy, but who's going to come in for some of them. 😬
score a last minute goal in a play-off semi final? no, i cant see that happening either

I’ve only seen promotion odds and we’re very close to the bottom of that list, so on that basis we’ll be one of the favourites for relegation!☹️

You know what I meant. 😀👍
My only hope is a league 2 club comes in for Woodburn and he wants to leave to get more minutes on the pitch.
Our recruitment, squad management, is abysmal. Its not just the lack of money but lazy sloppy way we go about things, any oustsider would look and say of us ' it looks like nobody cares'
Oh wait a minute owners and directors dont care.
A depressing end to a very poor day for me.

Well one bookie will be getting a sizeable chunk of my disposable income as a wager on us being relegated. Can't see there being 3 worse squads than that shite in the Championship.

Bradley Dack has left Rovers......what's the odds he'll end up at ......🤣🤣🤣
Given that Woodburns contract was contractually extended due to games played, it doesn't mean, as per @Sedge_Fan, that he won't maybe have been told game time will be limited next season hence his post about a L1 team coming in for him.

What are you going to focus on when you realise Johnson’s gone?
Its not like any of us couldn't have pretty much guessed that would be the retained list aside from maybe Woodburn but that looks like Lowe has, purposely or not, dropped a bollock and played him enough times to trigger an extension.
Also don't think anyone should be too surprised by the new deal offers, Onomah looks like a good player IF we can get a proper good pre season in him and keep him fit. Brady I expected would be offered one. Same with Cunningham, both will just be an extra year, both not that old yet and both immensely experienced at this level & above in Brady's case.
I did think they would offer DJ one but there is more chance of me playing for North End next season than DJ.
I think the main problem is we now need 8 or 9 new players. We can't count Ched and Riis in the numbers as they're both injured and probably out for most of the first half of the season or for good in Cheds case. So really we have 13 first team players. I'm not counting the kids, they can piss off with that. None have showed anything to suggest they are Championship quality, I hope some do.
So 8/9 new players. I fully expect it to be 5 or 6 loans plus a few free transfers. Get them wrong, which with a reduced budget becomes far more likely and we really could be in for a Lasher style shit show of a relegation season.

Even then we would pay him off with our super negotiating skills.
