For balance, the one strategy that has been criticized is....

having 9 players out of contract this season.
IMHO I'm ok with that because if we don't get promoted, we will probably (almost certainly) have to trim the squad quite a bit and this makes it easier.
If we do get promoted, we will have the option of offering new contracts or deciding on new signings.
