Player Contracts Latest

 

 

First of all the club can confirm that Aaron Doran, Nikolay Todorov, Brad Mckay, and Cammy Mackay have all agreed new deals and we will release further details of this welcome news later this week.

Doran staying. Love. To. See. It.

Jordan white off to Motherwell

Titanic sinks etc.

Ah well, we've got a good shot at the fives tournaments.

Wonder where Walsh will pitch up. No news of a PCA but must have offers.

What does our current squad look like

It would be good if someone posted a list of who we have under contract :). 

Fantastic to find out Doran is going to stick it out

Think there’s some of the young lads been told they may be offered something depending on what league we end up in. Until that is sorted it’s pretty difficult to do any planning! 

That's a good sign under the current circumstances, there was always going to be a lot not being offered contracts although it will still be a long time till we see football played again. 

A better position than I expected. I was anticipating no players out of contract being offered new contracts so retaining 4 is a pleasant surprise, especially Doran. 

Of those leaving, we knew about Rooney and White whilst sadly news about Tremarco came out a few weeks ago. Trafford and Walsh probably no great surprise. I thought Machado had already gone. 

Its a shame for the youngsters but if we get a start date and some certainty for next season, maybe some will get signed up.

At least we have more than 11 players signed up for next season. Not claiming this to be a full list but off the top of my head:

Ridgers, Mackay

Mckay, Toshney, McHattie, Harper

Welsh, Carson, Vincent

Storey, Doran, Keatings, MacGregor. Mackay, Todorov, Sutherland

I hope some of the other youngsters not leaving are defenders. 

I'm actually confused here, and I hope someone can clarify. The youngsters who've been out at the Fort are all apparently being released according to the Courier, but the statement says they're due out by the end of the month. Is this meaning their contracts expire at the end of the month and they're not getting a renewal, or that they're still due to sign a new deal. Cos if it's the former, I have to say, it's a pretty stupid (and dickish) move to make considering the space that's opened up for the youngsters to step up and improve their game...

contracts likely expire end of June.

As I posted on another thread ..... For once I see this very similar to MLS at the end of a season. In MLS there is typically a small core of players under contract to the club at the end of the year with a lot of others being placed on free agency list or contracts and options 'waived'. Many of these re-negotiate their deals and end up back at the club the following season. Not typically how it works in Scotland or elsewhere .. but there will be a tremendously huge player pool this summer and some on that list may end up being re-signed when they either cant find something else or the club has more insight into the path to come out of lockdown and back to football.  

 

Can see Charlie Trafford heading to the Canadian Premier League - maybe with Calvary FC in his hometown Calgary

 

Trafford's agent said recently he had interest from clubs in Scotland in the Premiership...

A few of them are uncertain on their futures as ICT are waiting to see what league they'll be in next season to offer anything but a few of them have been told they will be leaving the club at the end of June. 

Whilst unsettling it seems fair. Presume if we remain in the championship which I fully expect then these lads will get a contract to boost the squad on the more modest budget we will have.

Good to have Doran and brad Mackay signed up Toddys a strange 1 Robbo dosent seem to rate him never played him why sign him again plenty of free agents out there the now the young guns who got released no seen enough of them to see if they could make the grade presumably no good enough if club willing to let them leave in this time of cost cutting

I believe Clach have offered us some players on loan.

 

Silver linings wev lost 2 of the worst players to ever wear our mighty colours White and Trafford that alone is cause for a skinful the night!

Shane Sutherland now officially back with us:

As he won’t qualify for furlough, I guess he’ll be by far our most expensive player at the moment!

He's worth it.

I have seen him training locally and he has got a new lot of pace on him. Looking lean too

Dave are we going to sponsor shanes winged socks this year. Ill take his left one? 

Great I will do the right one.......and a left boot.

Err, not trying to sound impatient or anything, but are we actually going to sign anyone else? By now, we're a week or so away from when the League Cup was due to begin...and have only made one signing to six departures. Meanwhile other Championship sides are barrelling through signing guys, we waiting til we're closer til we're supposed to be kicking off or what?
