QUESTION MARKS
Rob Hall - formally released but may get offered a deal if he doesn't find one elsewhere
Josh Ruffels - sounds like he might take up a better offer from elsewhere

Thoughts? They all sound sensible to me. The only surprises to me were Nico Jones (who'd previously been talked up but allegedly hasn't been easy to manage off the field) and Fabio Lopes (who KRob previously said would play top-flight football but has been ditched).

Anybody know if Mous's contract is as player, player-coach, or coach? I assume the middle, but...

Forde is one of those players who shows ability at times but who is inconsistent - although that probably applies to lots of lower league players.

I was surprised about Nico Jones, but what you say makes it less so. As with so many walks of life, being a professional footballer is about more than the headline role. We have seen it with some of the young EPL players who have come to us on loan, but it is especially disappointing to read about one of our own being like this. Maybe Matty T can have a word with him.
