Brian Talbot has the unenviable task of deciding the future of sixteen of his players in the near future as they will all become free agents at the end of the season. Senior players Paul Murray and Les Pogliacomi could be on their way out soon and Mark Bonner, Jermaine Johnson and Wes Wilkinson are all on short term contracts.
New signings Dean Crowe and Steve Corry are on non-contract terms and Danny Hall is also out of contract in the summer. Calvin Zola and Keiren Westwood are currently on loan from Newcastle and Manchester City respectively and their loan spells end in May. Carlos Roca and Craig Fleming are working on a three year scholarship which is coming to an end while Will Haining, Danny Boshell, Adam Griffin, David Eyres, Darren Sheridan and Ernie Cooksey will all have to play for permanent contracts. Mr. Talbot has some hard decisions to make.
