if they play enough games do they get another contract?

Depends if they still have one of Uncle Dick's stupid loyalty contracts.

On another thread it was suggested they need to play 23 games to guarantee another contract so if so it won't happen.

Both of them could do a job for either Lewes or Eastbourne Borough in the Conference next season.
Although the way Kerry played yesterday he might be worth keeping as back up.

I think it's starting to dawn on people finally that Hart's days are numbered.
Not because of that miss on Saturday, although it was so bad, I felt embarrassed for him. Watching him play now is like watching a man floundering around in deep water, slowly drowning.
He's been a great little player for us in the past, but let's be realistic- not for at least four years! His last decent season came before his broken leg, since which he's offered very little. Effort, yes, enthusiasm, without a doubt- but even a County League player could come into the Albion squad and offer those things.
As a manager, you normally bring on a sub (when not replacing an injured player) for one of four reasons:
-to waste time when the clock's nearly up
-to find a goal from somewhere when chasing the game
-to add some creativity and inspiration
-to tighten things up, keep the ball and sit on a lead.
When Hart came on against Donny, it was too early for it to be wasting time, there were at least two other players on the bench more likely to score goals than him (when was his last goal??), he's not a creative player by any stretch of the imagination these days, and he hasn't got the legs to be a ball winner, so it was a very odd change to make.
I feel almost guilty saying these things, as he's been a great servant to the club, it feels like criticising the Queen Mother, but Harty: don't be holding your breath over a new contract.
Mayo, incidentally, had a decent game, but that doesn't warrant him getting another year either.

I think that it was case of resting Forster as he had run himself into the ground ona very heavy pitch but having said that I was suprised he didnt bring on either Dixon to go up front or Fraser to fill out the midfield as they were pressing us hard.
