Like the club to give Max Perry the final slot.

Why? Scunthorpe look in enough trouble as it is. This will sound mean (because it is) but i genuinely don't get all the hype around Max Perry needing a team place all the time.....surely the fact that it happens season after season says something? Team building averages shouldn't be tinkered with just to accommodate someone to frankly has suspect machinery and doesn't mix it enough. 

Neither will feature given the points available but Mickie Simpson would be more deserving of the position than Perry based upon last season.

Absolutely, I remember Poole being criticized for letting him go yet most championship teams could have fitted him in, rode pretty well at times for Glasgow but they let him go, could easily have fitted in at Oxford for either of their reserves so I dont see why Scunthorpe would even consider him with the points available, they will be bottom without Perry in the team.

Hasn't stopped Jack Smith getting a "gig" year on year, has it?

The lad is a trier and on the way up. Palm toft on the way down. That’s why

Plenty of other teams could have signed him but no takers so that tells you nobody thinks he is good enough. If he was on the way up he would be signed by now.
