In todays interview, Jim Bentley said that a couple of players have already left.
Who do people think they are?
Loan players Slicker & Tulloch?
Maybe Malley, Brierley, Campbell or Taylor? |  | | |  |

Slicker and Tulloch.
It was never confirmed when Malley’s contract ran till, but I suspect he’s gone too. |  | | |

I am hoping with Bentleys Morecambe connections we raid them while they are in financial dire straights and take Cole Stockton and Ashley Hunter off their hands. Probably wishfull thinking though? | | | |

The lack of ambition or even chancing our arm in the market has got us the squad we have now. We need to at least ask the question to some of these players in order to improve.
TBH we need a big centre back Gareth Griffiths style, a left back, a defensive midfielder with an engine, a wide player with some end product and a strong centre forward as well as Quigley. That's bare minimum for me. | | | |

Splashing the cash this time last year is one of the reasons we are in the position we are in now. We signed 3 players for money, one is already gone, another has been injured for nearly 12 months and the other thinks he's Zidane but is a pub level player. | | | |

If you’re feeling generous, go and speak to the club re funds. It would help with your bare minimum expectation. | | | |

Who do you suggest we sign?
If your going to shoot down ideas, put an alternative forward? | | | |

We can't do because we don't know who's available, how much they'll cost, what sort of contract they want, what sort of wages they'll require, which positions the manager is looking at in particular, and so on.
It's very easy to throw names about, but there's a lot more to it than that which we as fans aren't privvy to. |  |

Have you read any of the statements from the club? Listened to any recent interviews with the manager, maybe?
My interpretation is we’ll be very lucky to see five signings, which is your “bare minimum”. Of course I’d like us to, we’re in desperate need of new faces, but everybody at the club seems to be managing expectations.
I don’t know who we should sign. If we’re living a fantasy world and suggesting a guy who scored 24 goals in League One last season, why set our sights so ‘low’, why not see if we can tempt City to part with Erling Haaland? | | | |

Odoh can leave for me and his replacement is Lloyd.
Stickler, Malley, Tulloch, should have gone or ready to leave.
2 midfielders and a striker unless Campbell is also ready to get game time then 3 midfielders.
Brierley could be the one injured during training a few games ago.... |  |
| My all time favourite Dale player Mr Lyndon Symmonds |

Tav was sat with the subs observing yesterday's game ......which would suggest that he is still in the manager's thoughts?? Think we need to use him predominantly as a wide forward on his return....a position that he played at Woking before being moved to centre forward (where he, admittedly, found his shooting boots)?? | | | |

Can i just ask and i'm not being facetious, if Tav excelled playing as a centre forward and started scoring goals why would you decide to play him as a wide forward? I'm genuinely interestrd to know bearing in mind we are one of the lowest scoring teams in the EFL. |  | | |

It would be nice to get an update on his return date.
I can see Slicker and Tulloch being the two who have already gone, with possibly Nelson and Malley also going. I think he will Seriki and his favourite, Quigley. So that will allow us to sign around three players, possibly a right back and two midfield players, we may need a striker, but on paper we have at present Rodney, Henderson, Quigley, Sinclair and Campbell.
Taylor looked to have potential, but I cannot understand what as gone wrong with him. Apparently posters on the Barrow game post, have referred to the lack of ability or effort from the Dale players at Barrow and this raises questions about Rodney (who seems uninterested, this may be due to be used on the wing), I think John as been poor in most games since joining in the summer and Odoh has pace, but as we recognise the end product is lacking, so do we look to offload these three players.
I would keep Ball as a squad player. However only Bentley knows who he wants out and crucially who he can get rid off. | | | |

Tav wasn't a lone striker at Woking, more a wide player who was pushed further up the pitch and cut in more. Under Stockdale, he was playing a very isolated role. He could be the type of player we need, although match fitness/sharpness could take time. Fans might have to be more patient than they'd like | |
