Have to say this post is inspired by the poster on here "Welsh Exile", who raised the point in the squad going to Spain thread.
But could Ryan Wintle play a big part this season?
He's experienced, a good passer and someone who will work hard.
I had my doubts about him in the Championship but I think he could do a great job in League One.
Could even be captain.

Ned, it’s a possibility. His football is not really in question, but I understand he fell out with Erol Bulut and was a bad influence on the squad at that time, along with one other player, who currently remains
He’s on a decent contract here, so he might just knuckle down and produce

I heard someone talking on a podcast about Wintle last week saying he had heard Wintle has come back from Millwall with a totally different attitude got his head down and is working extremely hard
If he has his head switched on this season him and eli king will be battling it out for the number 6 if we don't bring anyone else in

Wintle is the type of player we need in league 1. We probably could have done with him last season.

Not from what I've seen, sadly.
Seems an honest pro, but not championship level. L1, maybe but I'd prefer someone with more skills than a safe pass and good corner.
I hope he isn't plan A. Plan B with a "go earn your spot" behind a new/fresh signing would be my preference.

I'd say Chambers is the main man for the number 6 shirt, providing he stays.

It all depends which formation Barry plays, but with Wintle, Chambers and Turnball - that is the position I have the most confidence in atm.
I imagine that Wintle will be the 'rotator' with the latter 2 as starters

Yes I think that too.

Don't discount eli king from getting in on the number 6 role, word is he's been very impressive so far in training
But I agree one of either Chambers or turnbull should be favourite to start there if we don't sell them
