dregs 83 Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Taken from my (oh so excellent) blog. I wrote a January transfer thread and this was the last list - Contract Situations - Out of Contract in May (can sign pre-contracts as of 1/1/18) - Scott McDonald Bilel Mohsni Willo Flood Fraser Fyvie Deniz Mehmet Mark Durnan Scott Fraser Jordie Briels Jamie Robson Harry Lewis (end of loan) Paul Quinn Emil Lyng Idris Kadded Grant Gillespie Thomas Mikkelsen (end of loan) Craig Slater (end of loan) Brandon Mason (end of loan) Tony Ralston (end of loan) Under Contract Until 2019 James Keatings Tam Scobbie William Edjenguele Stewart Murdoch Lewis Toshney Billy King Paul McMullan Matty Smith Scott Allardice Sam Stanton (2020) I think that is it. A few younger players are to be released but other than the already announced Graham Taylor, Brett Long, Logan Martin and Dominic McMeekin I am not sure who else falls into that category. That makes for truly harrowing reading, I thought Mehmet, Durnan and Robson all had another year (don’t give a f**k about Robson, but thought some moron might pay money for him).I would try and sign Mehmet, Durnan, Mohsni and if we could be given assurances about his fitness, Fyvie, from that first list.Someone (I think it was you) spoke about wanting to try a pressing system with wing backs.Thats what I would try and adopt next year, a 5-3-2, with investment in proper left and right backs, we’ve played shite clogger football for the last two years and it hasn’t worked, we might as well go balls out for next year.

Unless he was getting paid far more than he could get elsewhere. Would Thompson have been stupid enough to offer Csaba that sort of contract?

The person ultimately responsible for the team’s performance is the manager; assuming all managers are wanting to succeed and potentially move onto bigger things they must have the final say in player recruitment or they are complete hostages to fortune.

Has Csaba’s recent career looked like a manager who was on the up? If he was offered good enough money I’d imagine he’d take it. Anyway, as you say such a contract results in the manager becoming a complete hostage to fortune. No Chairman would be stupid enough to do that to their new manager.
