There will be a few former players out of contract this summer. Off the top of my head I think Sercs, JMT, Wheeler, and George Friend are all out of contract. Be interesting to see if we have any interest in any of these or has that ship now sailed.
I think JMT's injury problems would be a potential deal breaker, Friend and Wheeler possibly too expensive but Sercs a possibility ?

Of those, the only one who would possibly add anything to our squad is George Friend and I could see him ending him back with his old mate at Rotherham.

Part of me would love to see David Wheeler come back to us - he was one of my favourite players and a thoroughly decent human being.

But in these situations we need our heads to rule our hearts. We should be aiming to do better with our limited resources. Wheeler, JMT, Friend, etc would all command a high wage.

Sorry but no.

We can do better than out of old, out of contract players from Cheltenham.
I would see Sercs in the Kevin role, someone who can control a game and help stabilise our midfield. He doesn't suffer much from injuries unlike JMT and I'm sure he won't be too expensive. The money we have so far spent on Harper alone has been a complete waste in my view. Cheltenham are now close to us on much smaller crowds apparently so I wouldn't write anyone off because they come from a so called lesser club.
