DA Baracus Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 24 minutes ago, CallumPar said: Any player at Dunfermline should know that we’ll sell them at the right price. Signing a 2 year deal doesn’t mean you’re here for 2 years. If you perform well and a club makes a decent offer, you’ll be allowed to leave. It just offers the club some protection, in terms of getting a fee if the player performs well. This is part of the 'model' the club are trying to create. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s the mentality of every club, outside of those at the very top. Even the likes of Celtic/Rangers are happy to sell their top stars for Premier League money. The issue we’ve had is that nobody signs a contract extension/long enough contract for us to be able to demand a fee. In recent years, players see out their contract then get their move. Nisbet being the obvious exception. 2 year deals are risky, but I understand that it’s probably all we can offer most players. Can’t have players signing 3 year deals and ending up being a waste of a wage. The issue is though, that in their first year, the player settles in and shows signs of progress. Second season, they continue to improve and attract interest. By December/January, they have no interest in signing a new contract because they can get more money by leaving as a free agent in the summer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoBNob Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 If Barnsley are interested then he'll be away and all credit to him, there was quite a negative perception around him coming into this season. I do quite like him so would rather he stayed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So was only contracted for another year. This will be a 2 year extension. Guy’s had a phenomenal season and will be a huge part of the season next season. Assuming we go up, it’ll be interesting to see how he gets on playing every week in the championship. Hopefully he continues to progress and impress. Would be great to see a local guy go on to have a great career. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaton Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 It's an extra 2 years I think. I was looking at the story from his last extension just last week hoping we'd extend it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 OK brilliant, hope he got a fair bump up in salary and bonus as well. Fully deserves it, great deal for all. Shame he'll be the next Pirlo at Juve in the summer but the cash will be handy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamilton and Todd will need to empty them all out their back pockets from the game earlier in the month. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
