| Retained/released list 14:17 - May 10 with 20583 views | SuddenLad | Not sure how soon we can expect ours to be released, but Port Vale have had a 15-man clear out this morning. https://www.port-vale.co.uk/ne I imagine similar carnage will be a theme at many clubs for commercial reasons. |  |

Does it show the bench and the treatment room in all its glory? Fully expecting our release list to be similar to last year, All out of contract will be released and I think we will only offer deals on reduced terms to Lynch, O'Connell, Keohane, Lund and Baah if he hasn't already been sold to ensure we get compensation for him. We might take up the option on Joe Dunne, but seeing as he wasn't used at all it seems highly unlikely. Also expecting Humphreys, Rathbone and possibly Morley to be sold in the summer. Basically we are going to be left to build a squad from scratch with little to no funds like this season. It will at least make the CEO happy as it will be an express ticket to the national league which is where he believes we belong, and is why he must be removed from the club urgently. |  |

McLaughlin posted a tweet a few days ago which basically said he had enjoyed his time here and wished every one well. The way it was written, suggest he's off. |  |

| Retained/released list on 17:38 - May 13 with 4466 views | NorthernDale | He was off last season and was then resigned. I am amazed The Dale have not issued the list or is BBM waiting for DB decision on the budget and who can go, because I would not be surprised if DB makes the decisions based on the amount they may want or earn. I could see him saying to BBM, "we can surely sign somebody from Bacup Borough for £50 a week and they can surely do the same job as Rathbone or Humphry". |  | |  |

Correct......I wonder if Players are fully expected to take a "cut" in League 2 , do the Club Officials do likewise? If not,why not? |  | |  |

They'll probably issue themselves with a pay rise instead.... |  | |  |

I'm the opposite if we lose everyone it's a massive risk that could go either way. The players we've got with the right tweaks I think could be a very good League 2 team they also all seem to enjoy playing for BBM even throughout the poor run of results. I'm expecting a mass clear out though not by BBM but on the orders of the bean counters. |  |

| Retained/released list on 09:10 - May 14 with 3901 views | electricblue | Dale have to be rather carefull with cutting the wages budget as if Bottomley cuts it to deep which is a possibility then whoever the manager is may struggle for signing to get Dale out of Lge2. God it could even be a struggle to stay in Lge2 and end up in the national league.... One thought will Bottomleys so called phantom investors invest enough....... The retained list will be small and the amount of players who will leave will be huge...... |  |

IMO the only investors will be the unissued shares offered to existing share holders..... Forget those Z listers from the other week they wont have enough collateral to invest not a chance... |  |

Sounds like the communication to the players is just as bad as it is with the fans. Surely they'd have at least been told when they'd find out. I think it also means we could miss out on some of the players we want to keep. If I was one of the players and hadn't heard anything I'd be actively looking for something.
