Squad age

Just some facts from a web page I found
So, along with Watford we have the oldest squad in the league
Interesting to also see from our own squad list (I have omitted O'Neill & Mitchell), that out of 28 "senior" players 18 are contracted until they are 30 and over and that includes Legzdins who will still be with us next season :o
Most likely Walters and Lindegaard will go this summer plus maybe Heaton and Hendrick but would not be surprised to see Ward's option of a further year taken up and Bardsley could well be offered another year
On the one hand you could say we are in a good position having secured our players for the next few years but, given our restrictions on wages budget, maybe we don't appear to have much room for further additions in the summer never mind Jan
