25 man squad - Who's being shipped out ?

Tue Sep 03, 2013 8:08 am

Just adding up our players this morning and I think there's going to be at least 3 players who thought they may have been included in the 25 man Prem squad which maybe now surplus to requirements.
So who do you think is on borrowed time ?

Is this including under 21's? They aren't included in 25-man squads.

I make it that we now have 29 over 21's. That means 4 will have to be excluded from the squad. Lappin, Velikonja and Kiss are certainties to be excluded . The other one I think will come from:

Conway
Cowie
Smith
Kev
Gestede
Mason

My choice would be Smith but I think Malky will choose Conway - unless he avoids the issue by sending Mason or Gestede out on a season long loan

As far as I can think this is all of the squad so we need to offload 2 players I reckon Velikonja and Lappin will be offloaded.

Re: 25 man squad - Who's being shipped out ?

you'll have to add moore into that lot and that means someone else losing out, probably one of the full backs

No they don't unless they have changed the rules this season. Both born in December 1991.

I think the rule is 'Under 21 when the competition starts'. As they are currently 21, I think they are ok.

Unless they have changed it recently the rule is that they have to be under 21 on 1 January in the year the competition starts One way or another we will find out for certain soon.

For the 2013/14 campaign Under-21 players will have been born on or after 1 January 1992
