Out Of Contract Players

[Tord31]

December

Nicky Weaver

 

January

Michael Hector

 

June

Jamie Langfield

Russell Anderson

Andrew Considine

Barry Robson

Chris Clark

Nicky Low

Jonny Hayes

Peter Pawlett

Scott Vernon

Josh Magennis

 

One of the things that has helped us improve this season is having a lower turnover of players. We dont want to go back to the Tango/Mcghee ten out every summer so reckon we should be gettin some of these signed up sooner rather than later. Start with Hayes imo

[dave_min]

Nicky Weaver - can fuck off
Michael Hector - extend loan until end of season
Jamie Langfield- can fuck off
Russell Anderson - please retire
Andrew Considine - new deal
Barry Robson - undecided
Chris Clark - can fuck off
Nicky Low - new 1/2 year deal
Jonny Hayes - tie down to long term contract
Peter Pawlett - tie down to long term contract
Scott Vernon - can fuck off
Josh Magennis - not bothered, preferred to Zola, neither actually good enough

[Tord31]

aye we certainly need to prioritise the lads in their mid 20s...Pawlett, Hayes and Considine

 

Vernon and all the over 30s can wait till April/May

[forbesz1903]

Nicky Weaver - extend til end of season

Michael Hector - extend til end of season, would love to sign him long term

June
Jamie Langfield - extend for 2 years, don't think we'd get much better than him really. can't see mcinnes releasing him
Russell Anderson - retire
Andrew Considine - extend long term 2 / 3 years
Barry Robson - undecided, can see him retiring
Chris Clark - think he will leave
Nicky Low - extend long term deal.
Jonny Hayes - extend for 2 years
Peter Pawlett - extend long term deal
Scott Vernon - release
Josh Magennis - release, but can guarentee he'll get another year deal

[Stoney]

long term deal deal for injury plagued pawlett? why? who else would have him thats better than us?

Perth St. Johnstone...

[Stoney]

would class that as a huge step down personally

December
Nicky Weaver - Only played 135 mins but largely unimpressive so far. See what otehr goalies are around come Jan before doing anything too hasty.

January
Michael Hector - no brainer. Extend deal or make move permanent

June
Jamie Langfield - reckon he'll be looking for a big payday this time around which he won't get here. Happy to give him a 2 yr deal but reckon he'll leave.
Russell Anderson - retire.
Andrew Considine - 2 yr new contract
Barry Robson - leave it till end of season and re-assess then.
Chris Clark - get shot
Nicky Low - definetly a player there. 2 yr ext
Jonny Hayes - In a miniority of one here but I'd get rid at end of season. Both Low and Wylde can do his job.
Peter Pawlett - 2 yr extension
Scott Vernon - release
Josh Magennis - release

[Tord31]

Langfield to leave for bigger and better things that would shock a few folk! Think

his preferred option would be AFC - 3 years - testimonial. We shouldnt be rushing any decisions on the older players though

[DandyDon KD]

December

Nicky Weaver- leave

 

January

Michael Hector- extend loan or if possible permanent deal

 

June

Jamie Langfield- extend

Russell Anderson- retire

Andrew Considine- extend

Barry Robson- extend but will probably retire

Chris Clark- leave

Nicky Low- extend long term

Jonny Hayes- extend long term

Peter Pawlett- extend long term

Scott Vernon- wait an see if he improves when he gets a chance if not then leave if so then extend

Josh Magennis- extend

[Byrne Baby Byrne]

Are you sure Considine is out of contract? I thought he had another year to go.

 

Would like to see Hayes and Pawlett stay but they certainly don't deserve pay rises. Would get Low signed up too. Would keep Clangers and Magennis if they improve this season. So far so good for old Clangers.

 

Also. I'm not sure how much we're paying Hector but I'd get rid of him if we could find a left back of similar quality. Hector is a great player but no better than Considine or Reynolds in that position.

December

Nicky Weaver. Oot

 

January

Michael Hector. 10 year deal!

 

June

Jamie Langfield. Oot

Russell Anderson. Retire after lifting the Scottish cup

Andrew Considine. 2 year

Barry Robson. Keep if fit. 1 year

Chris Clark. Oot

Nicky Low. 2 year

Jonny Hayes. 3 year

Scott Vernon. Oot

Get a Randolph, Brill or Williams and a back up, a youngish striker (McKay ideally) and 2 full backs and that's a solid team!

 

New

 

New/Shaughnessy

Hector/Reynolds/Consi

New/Robertson

 

Pawlett/Wylde

Jack/Flood/Low

Hayes/Wylde

 

McGinn/Zola/New

 

 

There's the 6 players from there that don't get into the starting 11 to make up the subs leaving:

McKenna

Murray

Smith

McMannus

 

To be brought in as and when they are needed.

[northernlights]

If we brought in two new full-backs we would have ample cover at CB since Shaughnessy, Reynolds and Considine are all good players that are at their best in the middle. Clark Robertson is also a converted CB. If we keep Hector therefore we would have 4/5 good players competing for that position. Another striker is even more of a priority. I wonder if DM is lining up Prince Bauben to sign for next year since as an attacking midfielder he would be perfect for the 4-5-1 formation? Given the clear out he made in the close-season, I would be surprised if he does not address these obvious imbalances in the squad, which leave our team a bit shapeless at times. Hopefully, we can actually improve the squad from now on instead of just replacing dud for dud!

"Are you sure Considine is out of contract? I thought he had another year to go."

 

Considine, does have another season to go, he signed a three year deal in 2012 so he is here till summer of 2015

 

 

[spamspamspam]

Nicky Weaver - can go, let the kid warm the bench
Michael Hector - sign him up and try and sign him again for free in June
Jamie Langfield - fuck rigth off, right fucking off
Russell Anderson - think he'll slip through the back and start coaching
Andrew Considine - keep
Barry Robson - nae sure yet, see how his legs are once he gets a few games
Chris Clark - who?
Nicky Low - sign him up on 3 years now
Jonny Hayes - as above
Peter Pawlett - and again
Scott Vernon - nae sure, would keep him as a back up striker but we're stuck with Zola for a couple of years so may have to shift him to get someone better than both in
Josh Magennis - time to go. Like him, his attitude is great but he's nae a fitba player.

January

After today would you all still bin Vernon? He's our best striker at the moment. Get rid of Josh the Goalie all you paps who would keep him, are yous on drugs?

[ollie1903]

Vernon was tremendous today.

[ChutneyLove]

When Vernon came on last week at Pittodrie, I thought it was a youngster coming on - he looked fit and certainly had a spring in his step. I think he's been putting in the hours training and it is paying dividends. Keep it up and he could force the issue contract-wise.

 

Magennis would have to do something truly spectacular to merit a contract extension - you never know though, he is enthusiastic enough, he might have it in him to pull it off.

 

I would give Hayes a decent length contract, Pawlett a short extension for now.

I would agree with that 100%, looked sharp and hungry when he came on against Utd. I've always liked Vernon and believe he can still score goals for us if he gets his confidence back. Craig Brown almost ruined him as a player last season.

I agree too. Always had a soft for him, and really annoyed me last season when Brown was playing him out of position, ruined the lads confidence completely. Play him properly and he'll do a job for us

Agree with pretty much all of that. Your wisdom is becoming more apparent with each subsequent post.
