Someone mentioned him having already signed for another club, others mentioned him being a bad apple. What I don’t understand is if he was that bad, the club had no intention of offering him a new contract….and he made countless errors throughout the season….then how and why did he hold down a starting place for so long.

I’ve found it odd that considering our defensive horror show this year that we have basically stuck with the same players, doing the same thing over and over again.

Anyway, I digress…..Baldwin….why hasn’t he been offered a new contract? It’s a bit of an elephant in the room to me. If we could’ve strengthened in defence he would have been a decent option from the bench.
Absolutely agree. Surely if he was X, Y and Z he’d have been bombed out.

There’s definitely a player in there. I’ve said on here previously that I think he was asked to do too much from a tactical point of view in that role. But he also made some brain dead errors.

I think with some actual competition for his place (Brindley, Warner and Connell never provided that), that could have provided a need for him to sharpen up and improve. Maybe he was on a decent whack, or would have wanted a decent whack to extend.

Overall, I think we can replace him effectively so was the correct decision.
