WILSON MUST STAY!

[Scotty]

His best days are well behind him,time to get rid as we cant afford to carry passengers.County's his level now.

The days of him being a 90 minute player who could impact a game at any point are indeed well behind him but to call him a "passenger" is short sighted IMHO. He can still impact a game if used tactically. Put him on for the first 60 minutes of a game and make a planned substitution when its time for him to come off, or put him on for the last 30 in another planned substitution. Off the park, he is the sort of player - with or without coaching badges - who should be able to help, inspire, and give his experience to younger players such as Zander or Dougie. dont underestimate the mentorship role he could play.

Absolutely !

I agree. He should stay. If Sutherland was perhaps coming on a bit, then we could say get rid of him but we'd have to replace Wilson. We've got youngsters not coming through, so it would really have to be a first-team player to replace him. Unless Brechin, Elgin or whoever has some undiscovered diamond for no money, then I don't know what who that could be.
