Notts County boss Kevin Nolan has reiterated the need to have momentum going into next season's League Two campaign and urges his out-of-contract players to "make me want to keep them".
With the exception of Adam Collin, Mark Yeates, Carl Dickinson, Michael O'Connor and Matt Tootle, every other player on the Magpie payroll will see their current deals expire this summer.
The club secured safety last Monday despite falling to a 3-1 defeat against Portsmouth, before the weekend brought a 2-1 loss at Luton Town, which left Nolan unimpressed.
"I just thought we came away from the things we have done which have brought us so much success," Nolan told the Nottingham Post.
"I said to the players that the next week will be all about getting back to those basics. Once we do that, then you see the better football.
"I gave them a bit of a rollicking at half-time, because in the first half certainly, we looked a team that had guaranteed safety and were going through the motions.
"That's now how I want to end the season. I want momentum going into next season's campaign. With a lot of the players out of contract they have got to make me want to keep them."
