Retained list released. A lot of the dead wood have been shown the door, only Wyatt may of had a chance of staying. The rest were just costing us money.

Ryan Law Released by Argyle. Struggled at Gillingham and then Yeovil this year. Would be happy to see him replace Wyatt, moving Moxey to centre back.

Jack Sparkes released by Exeter, might be too much of a drop down, wished he had more games with us last season.

More chance of getting Law - having been loaned to Yeovil last season - than Sparkes, who I suspect has been offered a thoroughly decent contract in League 1, Championship or maybe Scotland

Yes, I love it when people claiming to be "ITK" make vague allusions to information they've got from various contacts but don't actually say anything of value

Other than the 'in the know' part you've perfectly described this entire forum

FYI, I know quite a few players agents as I actually worked for one.
I also assisted a young player - who I know personally - in obtaining his first pro contract.

I dont know any agents but a player who has played 150 games some in league 1 and a player who played 17 games in league 2 last year are not going to be coming here.

Wake up and smell the coffee and recognise the level that Johnson has landed us in.

That could well be true. I have no reason to disbelieve you.

It just doesn't mean very much when you don't actually share the information you claim to have. You allude to knowing where Sparkes will end up, but don't offer anything more. So nobody is any the wiser. You may have been told that information in confidence, in which case why even bring it up in the first place?

Fine.

In all fairness though. your message doesnt make it clear whether you think Law (or Sparkes) or neither of them might be coming here so why dont you just say who it is.

I heard that 4 players were leaving and posted it on here - I was right, but dont claim any inside info I just posted what I heard -its just a message board so people are interested who might be signing - if it doesnt turn out to be correct then it doesnt really matter.

Well brucie, I suppose you could say that my post was the same as yours then....
I'd heard that and I wasnt in a position to say if they were coming here or not just the fact- like you have stated - that it was what I'd "heard" as well.
I just thought I'd share the info.
Like I said earlier, next time I won't bother.

Boring….just say it or move on. Getting tedious.
