Bit of discussion about the 26/27 squad in the other thread so thought I'd move it to it's own one. I am sure we will see a retained list in the next week or so but for now, the confirmed contracted players for next season are:
Brennan Camp
Josh Taylor (injured for the first few months)
Harry Pinchard
James McShane
Seb Tauta-Caballero
Dennon Lewis
Alfie Rutherford
Jake Lawrence
Confirmed players leaving so far:
Tony Craig (retired)
Luke Moore (retired)
Niall McManus
Who would everyone keep/release for next season?
Isaac Philpot announced
Perfectly competent player, nothing spectacular but does what it says on the tin.

Seems like a good common sense signing, knows the club and he was excellent in the Horsham away disaster game at Easter.
Liam Vincent has joined Dagenham on a 2 year deal
Team looks pretty good for next season and as mentioned previously in the thread offers MW the option to play a back 4 which I suspect he will do especially away from home. I still think 1/2 more are required. If Taylor is out injured until October given Pybus tends to break down. Your putting a lot of strain on DG, Pinchard and Vincent which as you seen last season leads to injuries so need 1 more in there for me. I seen Jack Young was released by Worthing could he be picked up again? The way MW plays both the 352 and 4231 requires a target-man type ST so would be surprised if he didn't sign that type of ST to replace the departing Prior and McCallum.
Good signing but still need a few more to challenge for the league next year IMHO. I hope we are not yet done.
@hemelwanderer Davide Rodari signs for them as well.
Vincent a pretty good signing, Rodari a pretty poor one...
I agree hes never been prolific at this level, his two spells at Hastings was where he banged them in. Cant see him being a first choice striker for D&R probably be off the bench more often than not
Rodari must have an incredible agent!

Almost certain he plays an absolute blinder in both games next season and scores against us😅
Josh Brooking has joined Slough Town
@calvertskans Yeah, saw that. He seems to have aged somewhat...and appears a little heavier... 🤔
Just seen online that George Knight has quit Love Island after 3 days due to personal reasons
