Jack Walton, would have him back if a deal can be done.
Kevin Holt, Think he deserves another 2 year deal, but as understudy to Ross Graham, also 2 year deal.
Scott McMann, really steady season and a player i really like, but im tainted by last season. I am though minded that he was fecked about so much and maybe another 2 year deal.
Sam McClelland, Solid at this level, does make some mistakes that he has gotten away with, but if we can get him on a 2/3 year deal, he will improve and make us some money!
Craig Sibbald, hope he has triggered an extension, but i hope we can negotiate a longer stay.
David Wotherspoon, 1 year deal as a squad player.
Louis Moult, deserves an extension, but fear he has other offers!
Chris Mochrie, i think the romance surrounding his key goals this season is clouding my judgement, but he really should be commanding a starting spot by now, so is it time?
As for Archie Meekison, Declan Glass and Matthew Anim Cudjoe, i dont think they have done enough to merit a new contract so its time to move on.
Sadat Anaku, i think is the epitome of what was so bad about the Asghar era, then he got injured to make matters worse! I think there is a duty of care issue here where the club should be getting him back to fitness before releasing him.
As for Alex Greive and Jordan Tillson, i really hope they are not in next seasons plans!
So for next season we've got:
Declan Gallagher, understudy to McClelland.
Tony Watt, devides opinion, but would offer him an extension for a reduced annual wage, but we need more from him.
Ross Docherty, build the team around him and Sibbald.
Liam Grimshaw, hate me if you want, but he was good for this level, but no confidence in him for next season.
Glenn Middleton, His assists speak for themselves, but he should be looking at Kais goal stats!
Jack Newman, need to see where he is at.
Kai Fotheringham, fear we may get an offer for him, but i would negotiate an extension but needs to work on his consistency and wonder what that would do for his goal tally!
If i have that right, thats 15 players, so i expect we could do with another 7 players for a baseline squad with back up from the youngsters. Hopefully the backing we have given them this season, along with transfer clause payments, then fingers crossed there is money available for a healthy summer.
