Hopefully SG will stay, I think he has an eye for a player, I want young hungry players willing to give their all for the Massive. Add a couple of out of favour Premier League squad players on loan with option to buy if a success.
There's no rush though, we need to see what the four out of contract players are doing before replacing them. Up the Owls

We can't just keep wdry aiting for them to decide what to do though. How long do we give them.? We're the mighty swfc and shouldn't wait for anyone when it's our club at stake. Would like Kirkland and loovens to sign though. Owls to make a move for Vardy. Would like this to be true, may not get much of a chance at Leicester now they are promoted. Uto

Think when new contract offered a player has a fixed time to accept before it lapses. certain offer will lapse before begining of July.

I think Gray has good contacts and can get best out of players. I would like m to stay but want the DoF post filled with capable person. Think Bullen good motivator and deehan handy at admin side. We need another capable tactician who can help and support Gray.

I think we have to wait for the four to decide, if we sign replacements and they decide to stay we'll have too many players in one area, does that sound right or am I simplifying it and getting it wrong?

{Ed040's Note - I understand what you saying now lol. I reckon we need them to sign as well as signing a youthful cb and we still need a decent back up keeper martinez was only on loan and if we really looking to push on then we need a good engine in midfield

We don't need them if they wouldn't sign soon, after all we are a revitalised club with a record breaking owner Mammadov who knows what to do and how to plan/develop. NO MORE BEGGING for certain players to sign those days have gone now, they better be fast if they really want to commit to our club, otherwise good bye. NDS

Agree, I think all four are good players but the offer has been on the table for some time now, enough is enough, withdraw the offer don't wait forever.

Why shouldn't the 4 players look at all other other options before deciding? Honestly some people are so deluded and let there heart rule their heads.

I can't agree with much of what's in the posts above. We have to think in a different way now and on an entirely different level. If you were the owner and you wanted as close to guaranteed promotion next May as you can get how many of the current squad would you keep. I suspect not many. But a wholesale clear out is not realistic either. I expect the new players coming in to be capable of getting us in the Premiership and keeping us there as the first stage of a gradual progression towards a permanent Premiership place. And players of the right quality are not going to come on one year contracts or, I would think, on loan. Forget how you have thought about players before, it's all changed now.

I hope I am wrong but I personally think we will have to keep the books correct for at least this season and instead of splashing big money out on hopeful transfers we should calmly look around and get sensible workmanlike players in for sensible money. The new owner may have a few of his home country players that he will bring with him, I see that two Baku players carry his surname, but that may be like Smith and Jones across here. I am of the opinion that the four holding out regarding their contracts should get an ultimatum first of July or on your bikes thanks but goodbye. I would like the lads pulling on the team shirts to be here because they want to be and not just for the sake of the money, even though that is important. Let us be wary of diving into the transfer market for the sake of just buying someone. We definitely need stronger defenders and a midfield general with a bit of a devil in him, in the mould of Roy Keane but not as petted. We also need a prolific goal scorer, but who does not.
I would gladly leave everything up to S. G and co and let us see what happens and hope for the best.
