I am having problems trying to work out who from this seasons player list who is still with us, who hasn’t decided yet, who has left us, and who has joined us !! Have we got a current list somewhere which is tracking this in real time or have we got to wait to the beginning of the season and see who turns out for us? Most of the other forums seem to track this so their fans/supporters can all instantly know who is with them, and have something to chat about, at the moment all we can do is try and collect some names without knowing the full picture. Am I the only one who is feeling a little confused about who is in the team I support

It's so early just have some patience.
The likes of Aldershot and Woking are at a higher level so will release retained lists, etc. Clubs at our level don't do that.
The fact that only one player, Nisbet, had announced anything about leaving is a good thing. Discussions will be happening and some players are probably on holiday, etc, so not expecting a complete list anything time soon.

Most of what you see from other Clubs is a list of contracted players, and those released.
We don't have that luxury of contracting players yet, although that might become a bit more necessary now!!, so we have to see what becomes available, and when.
Much is being done behind the scenes I'm sure. Definite signings announced so far are Mitch Parker, Kevin Lokko and now Ollie Robinson, all decent signings plus, I believe, Buchanan was given an 18 month deal when Spencer got him from K's at the end part of last season?
Others will fall in to place soon I'm sure. Many players take this time for holidays as well, so don't panic yet.
I see Terrell Egbri has also been released by Southend today, so go get him Spencer??

The point i was raising was purely asking why we haven’t got a list of everyone so we can tick off those staying, put a question mark on those we are not sure of, cross out those who have left and add in any new ones, not interested in contractual status.
Surely someone must have this info without breaking confidentiality?

Yes, but it is only relevant when it is accurate and reflects everyone who comes in or leaves or is a maybe in terms of our squad for 2022/2023 season, last season has now past. I know it is all quiet now but if we want to build up the fan base and keep interest in the club going then things like our future possible squad is important to know, not just those intimately involved with the club.
Let’s build on the interest, not keep things a secret !

Bob, I see Woking have also released Salim.................I'm sure Spencer knows what he is doing and no doubt he will need to bring in some better plays for the Conny South. I think both Amartey and Emanuel at H&Y would both be good signings!

Not sure we could match the costs of those two Peter. I think Hayes really pushed the boat out for them!! Like to see it though!!

Let’s build on the interest, not keep things a secret ! I'm not sure if you're new or just really really bored?? We've just been promoted. The National League hasn't finished yet. This is the least difficult time to support the club in the last decade, both in terms of on field achievement and general transparency. Spencer's earned the right to go off and tinker away to his heart's content. Mitch and the 2 new lads are more info than I was expecting at this point! You've got a list of players from last season, cross off ones that leave and add ones that sign, if you're that way inclined. Attendance is up 54% on the last fully completed season. Early bird season tickets are available. Give the club a break 😂

I understand what you are saying but perhaps you have better knowledge than most of us who are just interested in supporting the team and seeing the club succeed as it has this season. Following and supporting the Boro for over 49 years I have been through the ups and downs like everyone else. I am not a newbie or bored, just interested in seeing us succeed !

To add to the bit about Egbri, this was his words on Twitter: "Today I close the door to the past, open the door to the future and step though a new chapter in my life. After 8 years at the Southend my journey has now come to an end. I would like to thank all the coaches, team mates and all the fans for their ongoing support and love" Only he will know what that means. Maybe playing at a higher level than Southend. Maybe dropping down here permanently. Who knows.

The point about having a few details about our players was a point I made a couple of months back and people got funny about it. I had no idea about our squad and their background, who they'd played for, best positions, honours etc . But thankfully that was remedied when the information given to away progammes about our players was put onto our website.
