Cant see that either of them have got a club as yet. Hope they do as really enjoyed watching them, especially Lee in the early days.

Agreed Lee sometimes had moments of magic,but just like Whelpdale he had become stale?...

Lee did better when asked to play in the middle of midfield. He was less effective at right back or on the left wing etc...

Whelpdale was largely injured last season so it is possible the contract we offered took that into account - maybe less standard wage, but higher appearance. Maybe due to injuries we only wanted to offer a single year for him to prove himself, but he wanted two. Either way, the fact McGleshen was signed relatively quickly suggests Taylor never really expected him to sign.

Agree johnknee, lee was v good when in centre midfield and running at defenders.
Understand whelp dale wanted a two year deal and as we wouldn't agree he took the security of a longer contract.

I wouldn't say Lee was ever v good apart from his initial months loan. Wherever he played he was caught ball watching so often it was unreal. Everyone keeps banging on about playing him in the centre of midfield but that means he has a very responsible job to do and is responsible for an opponent something he struggled with and his performances showed this. He was good in the air and never bottled a tackle but half of his tackles were desperate ones that he made as he was out of position. When he got the ball he was all action, put his head down and has the talent to look good but football is more than that as without the ball he was awful. Shame, as he has a lot going for him and I didn't dislike him but am glad he's gone. He'll do good things in games and is talented enough to come back and haunt us but anyone that has actually watched him regularly like we have are probably glad he's gone. For the money he was on for the last three seasons you have to ask yourself did we get any value out of it? And people would be lying if they replied in the positive. Wish him all the success though, as he seemed quite an amiable character.

Who did Peter Taylor actually let go I have been too busy watching the World cup so not been on the board very often, I am very surprised he let Gregory go!
Any replacements for Barrett as yet ,as surely he will only be on the subs bench!

Blimey Tjb, far too many to go through in detail, but main ones Gregory, lee, Weston and bayo gone, few promising youngsters brought in, one of which Egan from Sunderland as a defender. Major signing I guess doug loft port vales captain.
