There are a lot of tough decisions for the new manager and moving the dead wood on is vital.
There is no sentiment in football, it is a business and perhaps too much sentiment has been shown by previous managers.
Why didn't we take the 6 million for Maynard and rebuild the team?
Clarkson, Woolford, Campbell-Rice, Skuse, Kilkenny and his brother from another mother, Lee Johnson all need to go. Some are on contracts past next summer!
Old guard players, McAllister, Carey, Gerken and James are not Championship standard anymore.
Players that were signed and have never been Championship class, Nyatanga, Stewart and Hunt need to be shown the door too!
Once the clearout has been achieved, we are six players short of an average Championship side, the positions are GK, LB, RB, CB, LM and the elusive creative midfielder.
Please don't tell me Kilkenny or LJ can do the job as they clearly lack many of the skills required.
Judging by his comments, I get the idea that he is impressed with Fonts and Albert. They were both mentioned by name.
However, he does have a couple of St J old boys who he could call on, and I would not be too surprised to see them heading south.
This time next year ?

Please not Jody Morris!
At 33, he would only be marginally quicker than NK and LJ but would beat Carey to the burger bar!
