Apparently Lilycrop is in the England Academy squad as are George Burgess, O'Brien and Donaldson.

I think I read that Lilycrop was in the original training squad, but didn't make the final cut, whereas the others did. Although again, I may have dreamt it.

according to squad released last monday he's in for all of 2010 season.

Yep, I dreamt it.

God knows what I was reading that made me think that.

I really need to stop drinking.

Updated with Geoff Evans details, and the release of Basil

Looking at the squad, theres a fair few OOC in 2010. I think Nero and Langley are proorities fr new contracts. Hope Sheriffe doesn't get one, then there are ones like Crossley, Sykes, Reardon, etc who need to prove their worth. Menzies will probably be retiring aswell.

Providing Reardon stays injury free, I would definitely want him to sign a new deal. There's no questioning his ability, it's just his fitness.

Sykes & Sheriffe, I'd hope we'd replace with better quality. Sykes is always decent backup, but he shouldn't be first choice for us in any position. Sheriffe simply isn't good enough.

I'd agree on Nero & Langley, although I suspect we'll face competition for Langley's signature especially.

Can't see Menzies going another year, so no point even considering that one.

Kopczak I think is make or break this year. Always looked promising, but this year will show if he's going to make it or if he's going to be another one who just doesn't quite reach that potential.

Worrincy I would like to see shown the door now, never mind at the end of the season.

As far as the younger lads go, I'm hoping to see a lot more of the academy this year, so I'll hopefully form a decent opinion later in the season on those!

updated with Scully and Platts injury durations

Think you're right about Sykes, and I hope Langley will stay, whenever I spoke to him he's seemed Bradford through and through, and with his testimonial year this year it might spur him to stay at Bradford.

Sheriife definitely has to go, unless he does something sharpish, Worrincy's a toughie, he has had some good games but the majority have been garbage, he really needs to prove that he isn't a one trick pony and that he can be consistent.

updated again.

updated again with our Ricky's hamstring. No duration for injury time out yet though.

Thats a big list of OOC, but most of the youngsters should get a new contract, Crossley won't though imo.

Alot of those seniors have alot to prove, but Langley is a must and I imagine all will be considered for a new contract apart from Worrincy.
