Scowen and Watkins reject the new contracts and we release Aidy White, Callum Evans, Lewin Nyatanga and Ryan Williams.
Thoughts?
Scowen and Watkins Reject Deals

Watkins was never going to stay, after we turned his transfer request in January down. He's off to Brizzle, Cardiff or Ipswich. All teams no better than us, he's going for money, end of.
Sounds like we haven't offered a big pay rise to Scowen. So he's off too. No great miss for me. Offers nothing but bookings. Few tackles a game isn't enough. Does hardly anything going forward.
Those 2 players, Hourihane, Bree and Winnall. We made them better players, and they chased the money. Their choice.

Got to agree with you about that Snapski, it didnt really surprise me that the two want away.
Got talking to a mate about this last night and he mentioned that given our state as a club (no real massive investment in an area that isnt cash rich) he was happy with our situation of being a club that takes a group of younger players wanting to prove themselves,gives them a chance and manages to get a decent team from it.
I know a few fans will complain about players leaving to go elsewhere for more money but its something we would all do really.
