Shandon Par Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 (edited) Skippy would be a perfect addition if he could take the wage drop/still hack it. With Smith and Ryan there’s plenty of youth and enthusiasm up front already but we’ve lacked someone who can sword Utd. The ex Falkirk players took great delight in helping us turn them over and Skippy is exactly the sort of player we could trust to score in the bigger games (ie Utd). ETA - he’ll probably go to Falkirk (Hartley/Celtic connection). Edited May 17, 2018 by Shandon Par 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems a bit w**k that someone in the know told you something confidential and said it was ok to post it on a public forum. Also seems a bit like attention seeking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always thought it would be difficult to play El Bak and Clark in the same team. This would clear a space for El 30 Goals. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CallumPar Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 If it’s true that Aird’s now signing a 2 year deal with United, and Clark’s likely to go there too, we really need to re-think our contracts. I realise that one-year deals suit the club, in terms of not committing to longer term deals, but surely ‘key’ players should be getting longer deals? I also don’t understand why our important players haven’t been offered deals until now. Should have had them signed up before the end of the season, rather than allowing this sort of situation to develop. We were on a great run, putting in good performances. Losing a large number of these players and having to re-build would undo all of the good work done there. Should definitely have tried to get the important players to sign new deals once playoffs were confirmed and before everyone else decided released/retained lists and started looking at our out of contract players, since we always seem to be the last team to make contract decisions.I would imagine this also means that we’re behind other clubs in terms of recruiting new players as well (since we won’t be doing that, until we know what we need). Other clubs making signings and negotiating with potential signings. Of course, I hope the club make an official announcement today/tomorrow and I have got the situation completely wrong. However, this is what’s happened the last 2 years, we just haven’t got the squad sorted early enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoBNob Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Absolutely laughable decision to 1)Not start getting contracts offered out to key players earlier and 2)Only offer one year contracts to said players. You deserve mediocrity with shambolic proceedings like that, another poor summer in store for AJ? Brilliant. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parscelona Posted May 17, 2018 Author Share Posted May 17, 2018 Only in May and it seems Johnston has already managed to lose two of our key players to our main title challenger next season. Why the f**k are we not offering 2 year deals to the likes of Aird and Clark? Absolutely laughable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
