And where do you get an experienced striker (who scores goals) on this club's budget?

Well said BM

He's just that kind of guy OCG. He says it as he sees it and maybe it should have been done behind closed doors but he is honest and up front - not many people in football like him.

Yogi says it as he sees it. He is marking a card so whoever is playing it should be very aware! If he/they no longer want to be part of what Yogi is trying to build then come out and say it and I'm sure nobody will stand in their way and we can all move on

37 years actually

And what man management experience do you have?

FFS Scarlet take it easy man

Yogi has a Lidl/Aldi budget so live with it.

I doubt if the boy has ever said or indicated that ...... pretty stupid if he has!

So if Ryan is retained as No2 keeper and coach, who would you release Dean or Owain?

To be honest, I am not fussed either way.

Only my opinion: • Dean Brill - Depends on how he recovers from injury but can we afford 3 quality keepers? • Aaron Doran- Release, too much of a luxury at a high cost • Danny Williams- Retain • Ryan Esson- Retain in dual role but can we afford 3 quality keepers? • Carl Tremarco- Retain • Ross Draper- Retain • James Vincent- Retain • David Raven- Retain • Danny Devine- Retain but deputy role to Josh and Gary • Ali Sutherland- Unsure, needs first team experience but probably worth another 12 months out on loan • Liam Polworth- Retain • Lewis Horner - Release • Calum Ferguson- Unsure, needs first team experience but probably worth another 12 months out on loan • Cammy Mackay - Unsure, needs first team experience but probably worth another 12 months out on loan • Nat Wedderburn - Release • Jordan Roberts - Unsure. Haven't seen enough of him • Owain Fon Williams - Retain if affordable but can we afford 3 quality keepers? • Andrea Mbuyi-Mutombo- Release • Iain Vigurs - Unsure, looks like he will be no more than a squad player

Pass marks + to the back 5 but without doubt I would start Meekings before Divine. Raven is an auto start IMO. Great start to 2016.

I agree that Liam has recently shown massive improvement but he is a different type of player to Ryan. Yes get him signed for the future but I'm sure the manager knows exactly what length of contract he should offer so that he fits within his overall (reduced) budget. I hope I'm wrong but I don't see him having the same potential as Ryan.

I would give Carlo every chance to make the left back position his own.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Heard Henderson is staying in England

Brilliant news - DELIGHTED Does anyone else feel that 375 posts on this topic is sufficient? Yogi is an asset of this club and imo a very valuable one at that, so maybe we should put it to bed once and for all.

According to the Inverness Courier KC has put a "very good" offer on the table for Drapes. There is nothing better than positive news. Well done KC!

I have every confidence that he will spend wisely but everyone makes mistakes! Maybe you have the answer to getting quality players in when you have a very restrictive budget?

It all depends on how much money he gets to attract the better players we all want

Brilliant news - DELIGHTED

Most likely he won't sign up again but if what we've been told is true then Foran will be taking over. A plan should now be put in place to make sure he is prepared and we should be trying to tie up all the loose contracts asap. Perhaps we need leaders off the park. Again my concern is that the loss of Yogi will affect the players and that we could probably only attract a younger, upcoming type of manager - probably more suited to the lower leagues. Perhaps we need leaders off the park. Again my concern is that the loss of Yogi will affect the players and that we could probably only attract a younger, upcoming type of manager - probably more suited to the lower leagues. I think people are reading far too much into this article... Budgets - Clearly KC not giving him an answer on whether he is going to have anything from the Christie sale to spend, he's clearly looking for clarity, which KC won't be able to give until he really looks at what can be made available. "It's just before you sign that contract just getting to know exactly what tools you're working with next year. I don't want to sign a contract and something gets taken away" To me he is ready to sign, he just wants to know what he is working with. Players - As with any manager you admire and you are getting playing time under, you want to see them stay, and if they don't of course that is going to impact your future and decision on whether to stay. Family - To me this is a statement to say to KC, offer me long term and I'll maybe move my family up here. look at the positive side of that rather than thinking he wants away and is using that as an excuse. Sticky Patch - Of course he feels he has no control, look at the injuries, he says it himself. Confidence is a huge factor and as he says if they get on a wee run it all comes back, it is kind of out of his hands and up the players to really start believing in themselves, Hughes can try motivate, but ultimately its down to the players to perform and get that belief back. If the offer has been made some time ago it is obviously not acceptable to our best ever manager. Maybe we are penny pinching as usual so maybe the fans should prepare for him going. The longer this continues the less respect/trust the parties will have for each other so let's call it a day, one way or the other.
