    Surprised that Slocombe has been offered a new contract.

    A good shot-stopper, a bit hestitant at times and doesn't seem to command his area but a decent backup (fingers crossed we get a good replacement in).

    We can have 7 on the bench, Slocombe always seems to be a good voice in the changing room, I suspect it will be more as a back up keeper to help bring on other keeps which might help him go into coaching

    How many more seasons are we going to loan Brooks out before he's given a chance though?? If I was him I'd be looking elsewhere if we bring in another keeper as No 1.

    Big voice in the dressing room, back-up player/coaching role hopefully.

    Connor Ripley is out of contract, probably a long shot though. Stephen Henderson is a free agent, James Belshaw only has a year left on his contract

    He's not ready yet, he played a coupe of games and his distribution just wasn't what was required in how we play, he needs to develop and that needs to be away from the club at the moment. He should get a decent gig at a national league side but he's not ready for the number 1 spot yet

    Agree with this, he did ok when he came in but I never felt he was ready, especially now we’re in league two. It is hard for a keeper to get game time unless you’re a special talent like that guy from Sunderland we had.

    But how will he develop in the style of Notts play if playing with a different team that plays a different style??

    We won't loan him out to a side that doesn't play a similar style to ours, simples.

    Not many sides that play like us - I suppose he could go on loan to Man City
