outsider Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 In full from the Queens website. " As we bring the curtain down on another season, plans are well underway for the next campaign. As the manager reshapes his squad for season 2017/18, several players will be leaving the club. Goal-keeper, Jim Atkinson, as well as defenders, Jamie Hamill, Chris Higgins , Andy Dowie and Scott Hooper are departing along with strikers, Dale Hilson and Steven Rigg who have spent much of the season sidelined with injury. Youngsters, Owen Moxon, Dean Brotherston and Aidan Smith who have all been out on loan will not have their contracts renewed. Members of the Under 20 squad who are also being released are Richard Murray, Ayrton Sonkur, Jay McInally, Shane Glean, Cameron Copeland and Sam Henderson. Manager Gary Naysmith wishes to thank each and everyone of the players who are moving on for their efforts "It's the hardest part of being a manager. It's really not nice having to tell players that there is nothing for them. It's been tough but we have to make plans for the future of Queen of the South". "It's sad for players like Chris and Andy who have spent several years of their careers at the club and have been very professional both on and off the park. Chris had been club captain over a long period of time and carried out his role admirably. He was also a good ambassador for the club off the pitch as well. Andy also filled the captain's role on numerous occasions and I wish both players, and all the others players that are leaving us, all the very best for the future". The manager also thanked both Motherwell and Celtic for allowing Dom Thomas, Joe Thomson and Connor McManus to join on loan. All three have now returned to their parent clubs. Meanwhile, Darren Brownlie has put pen to paper on a new contract and Callum Tapping, Ross Ferguson, Connor Murray, Jack Leighfield, Owen Bell and Jesse Akubuine have all agreed contract extensions. They join Derek Lyle, Lee Robinson, John Rankin, Stephen Dobbie, Scott Mercer, Jordan Marshall, Kyle Jacobs and Lyndon Dykes in committing their futures to the club for next seasons campaign. Dan Carmichael has been offered a new deal. And midfielder, Andy Stirling has signed a pre-contract and joins from Dumbarton." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QosLoyal Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Tapping good today but is a lucky boy to be offered a new deal after all his injuries. Not too fussed about the rest being let go, big season for Mercer next year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Hilson was worth another look and Im not entirely convinced by Brownlie but good to see Tapping getting another deal Just now, outsider said: Does it bother you?

QosLoyal Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Would probably have kept Atkinson too, still need a new No.1 GK for next season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 So so far it's(?):-GK - RobinsonRB - Mercer CB - BrownlieCB - ? LB - MarshallRM - Stirling/Murray CM - Tapping/Jacobs CM - Rankin LM - Carmichael? ST - Lyle/Dykes ST - Dobbie 12 first team players signed? It's a pretty shocking statement to make when you have Dobbie in there but that makes for grim reading at this point. Naysmith has a big job on his hands this summer and at least if it goes tits up he'll have to take the flack himself. For me we need an experienced CB to go alongside Brownlie. A new RB. Loan Mercer out if need be but he's not good enough for this level just now and if he is intending on playing Jacobs there permanently then I'll e concerned. A LM is definitely needed as is one or two CM's. If Tapping is fit for the season then I'm over the moon about him signing but it's a big risk so it's a subdued feeling. Disappointed a release hasn't been negotiated for Dykes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both take exactly the same time. On the other hand it's a lot easier to read the text on here than have to have to open it in another window, think you're just having a grumble for the sake of it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly highlighting one line is quicker than selecting a whole passage of text. A single click in the address bar highlights the whole thing On the other hand, its better for the club if people visit the website -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chupacabra Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Any other Dobbie top goalscorer peeps still waiting on money? Showed McBookie the bet on Twitter while it was still open and they said I would win with half the stake, the bet is now registered as closed on the account with 'settled' next to £0. Do these things usually take time to register or am I just getting fucked over? Haven't won anything over a fiver on a bet before 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
