Think you highlighted the wrong line there
"Dargo was given the chance to commit his long-term future to Caley Thistle several months ago but has so far failed to sign."
looks like his mind has been made up for a while now!!
Out of the 3 players I care for Dargo the least, I think with Bayne and Wyness upfront we have looked more comfortable this season, similar to Paul Ritchie & Wyness combo, and for the fact he seems to be moaning his chops off it might be best for all concerned if he went.
Fair play to the club for pulling out the stops to keep Brown at the club but I fear that other players will try the same tactics to improve their contracts now. If he turns down the offer then at least the club have done all they can to try and keep him here. I'd love if he stayed as he is the one player of real value in the ICT squad, if we can get him tied up to this contract and even if he decides to leave next season we could easily demand a big fee for him, not to mention he could be the first ICT player to get a full cap for his country, but if he leaves then fair play to him, we still have Fraser who is a very decent replacement.
Dods has been excellent for us and will be a massive loss, IMO caff isn't up for the job so we will need to get a replacement and I think the board are going to have to dig into their pockets for this one because the chance of us finding another Dods on a free aren't likely.
