DoonhamerDon Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Won't be missing any of those released - but slightly suprised it isnt a bit longer. Assume Quitongo will be told he's gone once Clyde's play-offs are finished. I'm assuming all those not contracted but not on those list we are offering terms to of some degree. Hopefully at a lower level in some cases which will probably lead to more departures over the summer. I know nothing of the budget or what clubs pay players (can always ask Greenacres though ) but recruitment and spreading our budget appropriately across a group of Key Players, Good squad players and backups/reserves is something Gibson got very wrong. Happy to retain some more of last season's squad if on terms that allow us to pay a bit more for the higher quality ones. Its that 'can I get equal or better quality for the money being paid' question and in some cases its just a no Don't envy Bartley with the job and its a massive summer of recruitment to get that balance right, but I have faith. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's telling that every single player on the list was signed by Gibson. In fact I think that is half of last summer's signings gone, leaving only Hendrie, Irving, Wilson, Quitongo* & Reilly* at the club. * and there's no saying how long that pair will remain for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect Quitongo is a certainty as well and will be surprised if Reilly isn't another. Haven't seen anything from Irving and McMahon to suggest they'll make it at first team level but I expect they're on peanuts and may well be offered another year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irving prob stays as a bench filler on the cheap, McMahon rumoured Annan bound. Guess a few other have prob been offered deals prob low wages and if they do go elsewhere QoS will get a little compo... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has to be a higher contract offer to entitle club to compensation. Especially with Cochrane and possibly East having interest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still reckon Dom McMahon will come good if given a run of games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's a player who looks busy but doesn't have much end product. At 21 I think he should really be looking to play regular football now whether that's with us or someone else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, I’ve never watched a game and thought he stood out unfortunately. Wee Ryan Muir has, and for me has done alright more often than not when giving opportunity. It will be interesting to see what MB wants to do with the more promising reserve players, watched a couple of games and thought Finlay Kennedy stuck out, Lewis Currie obviously impressed to get in match day squads. Both still relatively young. But important they get game time at a decent level next season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reserves (well some of them at least) were in yesterday for contract talks. One of the ones you mention has been given a contract, not sure about the other. I can't recall much of Currie tbh but then none of the defenders really stood out for me in all honesty. If Kennedy is who I think he is he's certainly come on since I first saw him. Seems to be used anywhere and has always done a decent job. Obviously it's a massive step up though. Hopefully the reserves that get signed this year are able to push for some first team action - at the same time I hope we have an 11 good enough to keep players out of the lineup each week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finlay started as a midfielder but moved to full back as season progressed, was one of the ok performers v hibs at left back. But think he’s also been used at centre mid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been playing central midfield for Lochar. I think he's going off to Uni though. He's still at school at the moment, not a full time player. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slipmat Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 (edited) Saw that picture of Paton on the Queens twitter feed and thought he must have re-signed! Oh well... Doesn't look like either of the two new signings that Marv had been hoping to announce this week have come to fruition yet. Oh well...
