I didn't think Sam Austin would be leaving us.

I think that sets the bar. If we're not offering Sam Austin a deal of any kind, I expect to see some real quality coming through the doors this summer. And one or two of the contracted players moving on a well.

There seem to be a lot of academy players offered pro contracts too, I hope that's more than a numbers game. I am very impressed with Harrison Hazard, though, he's been excellent whenever I've seen him play.

Some players under contract will definitely be moving on, I feel sorry for Sam Austin and I would have kept Whittaker, apart from that no real surprises.

No, I met his dad at a B team game earlier this season and it definitely wasn't Micky! Look out for him, though. For me, he's been the pick of the players coming through in this batch.

[Robbie 𝕏 @Robbie_NCFC]

The players that have been released is no surprise & who I expected. I think it demonstrates as well that the January transfer window didn't turn out as expected & I'm sure the club will learn from that.

I would expect to see some players under contract leaving either by transfer or on loan.

I would expect Morias & Traoré to be on that list along with Edwards & Reynolds. I hope Jatta isn't transferred but the owners do like to sell if there is a profit to be made.

[Piethagoram 𝕏 @piethagoram]

If a 750k offer for Jatta comes in, just take it.

I'd like to see what Traore can offer with a full pre season behind him. Jatta looked exhausted from around January onwards. I'd guess he's never played so many minutes in a season in his life, and it's a physical league. I'd sure he'll be better equipped next season. Although if money like that is on offer, it makes sense to take it.

Nothing too surprising but i’s sad to know we’ve seen the last of Sam Austin in Notts shirt. I understand we already have a number of players similar to him so it would’ve restricted us from strengthening. Still, he was a player you could always rely on in terms of effort and application. Pretty sure he’ll end up at another League 2 club.

And I’ll be interested to see where Whitaker's career goes from here, again had we not had so many players already contracted maybe we might have kept him.

It's super encouraging to see 9 academy players offered deals. Got to be a good sign as these will have been earnt by merit. It does feel like we are much closer to finally seeing a player from the academy becoming a real part of the first-team squad.
