It really would be great to get the majority of this squad signed on, especially at the back. Dunsmore, Watson and Meggatt next please! :wub:

This is amazing!! Need to get a few more extensions, a couple pre contracts and get the management signed up on long deals and that’s us ready to start next season in whatever division we are in with a squad with already great harmony [emoji169]🖤

Those three have got to be in talks with the Club, I know Watson has been, but I fear it will be the same as last season where Aaron and Janny were holding out till the last minute as they were looking for Full-Time elsewhere, which is fair enough!!!

 

Think Janny's recent injury, which could be a long term one, may mean that he will remain with us as not only do we have a "duty of care" towards him, he did get badly hurt playing for us after all and it would be obscene if the Club were to just dump him at the end of the season knackered and out of contract, which I don't think they would anyway, remember they kept big T-Bone Wallace until he got himself fit again and then was deemed surplus to requirements and released!!!

Eta - T-Bone wasn't released, he was actually out of contract but the Club kept him on till his rehabilitation was complete and he was able to train with the squad and then DY made the decision that he could go elsewhere!!!

Good news and no need for a massive overhaul at the end of the season. As has been said, if we can keep Meggatt, Watson and Dunsmore that would be a really good squad with only a few additions needed.



It really can't be reiterated enough how important and welcome the successful signing talks have been, especially at this time, we have seen how disadvantaged you can be at the start of the season with total rebuilds as has been the case at the Club over the last few seasons, with sometimes zero players signed up until a fortnight or so before the season kicks off!!!
To be in this position already, with a good core of a successful squad all signed can only be good news for the further advancement of the Club!!!
I would also like to think that these players are obviously signing because the manager has already told them he will be here next season and that his new contract announcement is imminent!!!

Arbroath have shown the way with player continuity. They have kept the core of their team for a few seasons and made good signings when the right opportunity has came along. Guys like Ryan Wallace ,Thomson, Spence and Donnelly, are all proven professionals at this level. I wouldn’t think our budget is as strong as Arbroath but the manager will know the type he needs to fit his system. Certainly think this is the way ahead without making wholesale changes every transfer window.

Fantastic news, well done Bod and the management team for getting a further two signed up and tied down for next season.

Would like Tonks on much further deal than next summer but its me being greedy though erm like to see Meggat (Quality, leadership and experience purely), Janny (His leadership and can play at CB/Full back), Dunsmore (Best full back we have, Definitely) maybe add in Scotty Linton and Chris Higgins into that list of worth keeping around before looking it new players. But having 9 out 22 we have is a good platform to build into next season squad, thats a start in a right direction i guess. MonTheFife!!!

Whether Docherty will remain?

Ah right, but Kev's the captain hence the confusion!!!
This news will only appear when KK copies and pastes it from the club's Twitter account and not before... :-)

It's a hard job but somebody's got to do it!!!
