Why does the retained list need to be published today??  I wasn't aware of a deadline on making that decision other than when the players contracts end, which is usually in June.

I read a reporter's tweet saying that the FA need retained lists from all of the Football league clubs by 16th May at 17:30, he probably got it wrong.

Thing is how does that work for the teams still in the Play-offs, would hardly be a morale booster for any players who are not retained but still needed for the final game!!

Don't know Charles, maybe they get an extended Deadline.

This is the tweet I saw.

Expect Chesterfield to release the retained list today or tomorrow as the Football League deadline is 16th May for all clubs. #spireites

if Morsy goes to Portsmouth I'll run down my street bollock naked at 12 noon .

Morsy won't go to Portsmouth and half the squad won't Portsmouth and there fans are deluded and are not living in the real world. They think that Chesterfield are a soft touch and reckon they can get Roberts, Morsy, Darikwa, Banks and Gardner for a steal. I would say Morsy is worth about £1 million - £1.5 million. Darikwa worth about £500k - £750k and Roberts, Banks and Gardner probably worth about £100k - £250k.
