Including loans, this is the full list due to leave unless offered deals:
Ward Vaclik Ruffells Aarons Koroma Knockaert Kamberi Tino Smith Waghorn Lowton Hungbo
With nobody having a clue if we've been taken over by someone who is going to throw money at it or run us on a shoestring, it is difficult to say who is worth keeping.

Who are the two that Warnock suggested Cardiff might want to get? I didn't click on the click bait.
I'd guess Koroma and Ruffels.

Really hope we don't keep Ruffels. It will be a clear indicator of what sort of investment we're looking at
He's done ok since Warnock came in but does far too many amateur things which you just can't be doing at this level. His awful play lead to the corner from which they scored yesterday, it should never have happened and could have been so costly after looking so comfortable

Maybe a mind blank moment here but Smith??

I think everyone would like Josh to stay. Had a frustrating spell overall but if he helps keep us up for the second time then he'll have been a successful signing. Just a shame he took such a long dip after his injury.

Just a shame he took such a long dip after his injury. I don't think it is any coincidence he has pulled his finger out when he was about to be out of contract and staring at league one offers only. He'll now have decent offers from Championship teams but lets see if he keeps up the same level of motivation and performances once he has another 3 year contract in the bag

Koroma gets a deal for me (year plus option). Ward also gets a year. Other than that, they can all go for me. A good chance to clear the decks, especially as a large number of them don't play!

I suspect that all will go, apart from maybe Koroma.

According to Maynard (?), Koroma has been offered a new contract twice, but his agent prefers to run down a player's contract and then let his player go to the highest bidder. The new owner needs to provide funds that player and agent cannot refuse.
Saying that... it may be that his position could be filled by Pat Jones who has looked very impressive.
I'd also make enquiries with Watford about Hungbo.

I'd also make enquiries with Watford about Hungbo. The problem with Pat Jones has been injuries. Loads of potential, but always out for one reason or another. If we get him right, then we have a player on our hands, but until then we can't rely on him (which also takes pressure off him and allows him to get fit).

Again pure speculation but i’d guess he’d probably accept the offer now after a few months struggling at Portsmouth.

Restart and rebuild now so clear the decks for me. Koroma not consistent enough to warrant a new contract. Gives new owners and managers as clean a slate as possible.

I totally agree with this, unless Koroma was going to take a sensisble contract offer. The rest can defo go along with Boyle, Mahoney and Schofield just to name a few extra names that i would defo be letting go .

I don't recall Maynardblue saying anything about JK but I imagine his negotiating power is not what it was 2 years ago. Up until Neil Warnock came back I wouldn't have wanted him but the thing that has impressed me is not that he's "regained his form" but that he's reinvented himself. He still has the ability to cut in from the left and unleash a great shot with his right foot, but now he can do other stuff as well - it's harder for defenders to predict what he will do. Only think I recall is Neil Warnock suggesting that he wouldn't be here next season. Shame if so, because I would definitely like to see him here next season.

I'd be putting a bid in for Hungbo.

Looks like I might be in the minority here but Hungbo has scored a couple of great goals but had many more poor matches than good.
As a loan signing his impact hasn't been that great. It's just against the other disaster loans that he looks a great success.

I'd offer Ward and Koroma new deals regardless of which division we're in. Vaclik - if we lose Lee Nicholls I'd be happy to have him here as a replacement. Alternatively if the new Head coach wants genuine competition for the goalkeeper jersey. If so, hopefully Bilo, Chapman and Bellagambi get decent loans. I don't expect Schofield or Smith to stay. Ruffels - keep if we're relegated. Decent experienced first choice at that level, but no more than a back-up in 2nd tier. We have Jackson and Headley for that so if we stay up, let him go. Crichlow - possibly keep if relegated. By all accounts excelling at top end Lg2, so should be able to step up in Lg1. Otherwise release. Needs to be getting regular first team football and isn't ready for Championship at age 24, so I question whether he ever will be. Tino. If only we could keep him fit. Class footballer but 18 months of being injured doesn't fill me with confidence. Would enquire about Hungbo. Knockeart. Maybe. But probably not. The rest, let them go.

I update the contract situation once or twice a year. Just use what team they are on based on the town site. Sure i've got a couple wrong but should be close to right.

Ridiculous decision to give Rhodes a three year deal. He had been shite for a good while before joining us so it's hardly like it was a coup to get him here

Next seasons team should look something like this for me. (Based on us playing similar to now).
Nichols Pearson Helick [new CB] Turton. [New CDM] Headley Rudoni. [New CM] [New Cam] [New CF]
Bilo Hogg Lees Kasumu Jones Simpson/Harratt Diarra

Been linked to a Dutch club AZ Alkmaar would be ironic.
