We are certainly weaker than last season but with the leavers and loans out there are spaces in the squad for youth players that wouldn’t have been there otherwise.
It will be a transitional season where Bagan, Harris, Sang, Brown and Colwill will hopefully be joined by Davies, Bowen, Evans and 2-3 others. The latest transfer decisions have made that possible.

I think we're entering an interesting time for the club with so many players out of contract in the summer. If the youngsters can kick on then it would really help the club in making the decisions of who to keep and who to let go.

He's been mismanaged the whole time he's been here. He was the more successful of the two brothers at Norwich, Jacob plays regularly in the EPL and we've never been able to get to best out of Josh. He is frustrating, but at times he shows composure on the ball and is a good finisher. I can't believe letting him go out on loan makes us a better unit.
I'm not really concerned with next season. I'm concerned with the next phase. And sadly, I don't really see Morrison being a part of that. He's 30. He can't cope with the EPL. He's been a great captain and a great Championship defender. But it's coming to an end. And when that time comes there should be no room for sentiment.
