Retained list.

[MILLERSTALE]

Even if we offer to extend the contracts of the handful who are worth keeping it seems unlikely that many of them will want to stay, particularly as their salaries will reduce.
I think they will probably wait to see what other offers come in and who can blame them?
It will also be interesting to see how many changes LR makes behind the scenes because, when he talks about the need for a culture change, it suggests he might want to change quite a few of his support staff as well as the players.
It's going to be a busy old close season.

Just for interest who are the ones worth keeping ?

I don't see talk about culture change as being directed at support staff. It's more about the ethos of the club and seeking to sign 'blood and guts' players who will give their all - 'good people' if you will.

It's easy to take the mickey, but the committed 'good person' approach is what worked for Warne and Moore (think McIntosh and Swales).

Viktor (but we should let him go), Odoffin, Ollie (if he gets his head straight), Humphreys, Blackett (if he can stay fit).
Struggling to name any more to be honest.
I do wonder if any of the youngsters like McGuckin and Durose might merit a squad place in League 1?

[Feedthegoater]

As a collective, Here are our retained players for next season.

Viktor
Bramhall
Kioso
Humphrey
Blackett
McGuckin
Durose
Oddofin
Lindsey
Rathbone
Tiehi
Clucas
Green
Hugill
Nombe

I would add McCart too

Well not a bad list really is it?
Considering this could be potentially Rotherham United's worst season in our history!

[Derbymiller]

I will shock myself by saying Eaves
I wouldn’t let Wyke near the local pub team
Assuming victor leaves but obviously if he would stay he would be on the list
Humphries, Rathbone and Odoffin, nombe, Lindsay, bramall, kioso
Rest can leave and please feel free to leave as soon as possible

You’ve left Eaves out. Some think he will shine in League 1…

DM, no Tiehi? I thing he could offer a lot in Division 3….. oops tripping back there, I meant League 1. He’s a skilful player who operates under pressure well. Out of your list I would say Bramall can go. Can’t take on a defender and very poor at crossing a ball.

[ilikecarling]

Those 5 are a good start. Add kioso olie tiehi bramhall and green.
Almost a full team

Forgot about Tiehi, definitely worth keeping hold of.

Agree about Bramall we can do better. Green another I'd move on. Victor Kioso Humphries Odoffin Tiehi Rathbone Nombe McGuckin out of them who'll stay keep but can't see many wanting to under LR Kelly. Morrison Clucas could do a job in league 1 Hugill McCart also.

[Townerslovechild]

We've one amazing player..Vik.
A few decent players ,Oddofin, Ollie, Humphreys, Tiehi , Clucas ,Revan, Blackett, Lindsay....er,that's about it.
Obviously We've 3 of our own strikers, who you'd like to think could score in league 1,but I don't think we need all 3,plus we need something other than a great lump up front, Green possibly ?
So we must target the same lacking areas as this season, attacking midfielders and wingers.
Also get some of our youngsters in the squad, are they really no good for league one?
Anyway, can see loads of changes, and rightly so, which often means a season of transition and not promotion, will the natives settle for that ?
