I’m not sure we ever release a formal ‘retained list’ in the way that most other clubs seem to, do we? I don’t remember us doing so.

I quite like that we don't. It's very cutthroat. Simon Richman, for example, deserved more than a name on a list.

I'd be most interested in who, of the current squad, will be full timers on which ones are opting to stay part time. I bet this is one of the reasons why announcements have not been made to date?

How many of our players are on 2 year contracts?

We're "stuck" with them for this season unless we can persuade any we don't want to keep to leave. Paying them off might cost a few quid which we then won't have for replacements.

I believe Ringo was on a two year contract.

Was thinking more of those we signed this year who still have a year left

I know. I think he was at the end of the first year of a two year contract.
I seem to recall some on here puzzled that he was offered that length of a deal.

PS. If that was two years ago, I apologise but I don't think so.

I think you are right. Quite a few players were offered 2 year contracts at the start of last season iirc

Thanks for the reassurance JD. At my age, my memory isn't what it was! 😂
