None of these will move to a Premier League Club and no Chimpo Clubs could afford them. They will just run down their contracts draining the club.
Very good point. Add Wood to that, I'd imagine.

That said: Fraser has plenty to offer coming off the bench. The problem is his legs over 90 mins. For 45 mins, he is great.

Don't understand why we are not trying harder with Lewis instead of Richie, who is clearly spent. Lastly, I can't see Howe or Newcastle ever getting rid of Lascelles - I don't know what is the fascination with him but he seems to be a fixture at this club.
