... Personally, I`d like to see Fagan Walcott back at the club. Tash has quality about him but needs players around him who can anticipate and create space.


I`d love to see Fagan Walcott back too but I fear he`s found his level and it`s above us wages wise As for Tash I just don`t see what you see. I see not enough touches of the ball because he doesn`t find the right positions to affect the game in the attacking half. He just doesn`t do enough.

Would be good to see him back but he signed a 4 year deal with York in January so would cost a decent fee

Apparently Fisher is still under contract but Breen isn`t. How do you offload someone who is under contract? Some club has to be interested and the player will be looking for terms at least equal to what we are paying him.


You`ve answered your own question.

Agree on a payoff deal maybe 3/4 or 1/2 of his salary

I would imagine that Lennon will want to make his own mind up about guys like Fisher? He will have a chance to impress in the close season. I think he is better than some of our defenders.

It`s going to be an exciting time to be a Pars fan this summer. Hopefully they get Lennon signed up and I wouldn`t mind us taking up the supposed option on Chikloa-Mullen, and getting Oluwayemi in. The players out of contract haven`t really done enough to get an extension, and those under contract are good enough for the squad if they can`t be moved on. I could see Benedictus and Fisher being moved on or having their contract terminated, depending on their court case. We would need to be looking bringing in stronger players, to push at least 6 of them out of the first eleven and on to the bench.
GK. Oluwayemi
CB. Chikloa-Mullen
CB. Benedictus
CB. Fisher
RWB. Bray
CM. Richie-Hosler
CM. Todd
CM. Otoo
LWB. Ngwenya
CF. Kane
CF. Young

Bench
GK. Mehmet
GK. Margetts
CB. S.Young
CB. J. Tod
CM. Beveridge
CM. Rowe
CM. A. Tod
CF. McCann
CF. T. Sutherland

Y, Fisher went off the boil quickly before getting punted on loan.

He was good at first.

If the court case is bad, I guess he is binned.

Either way, we have an awful lot of guys in development as it is, good to go with them, personally I`ve had enough of guys well into their 20s who have not improved.

DunfyDave, Sun 27 Apr 14:50

Can anyone advise on what players we currently have on contract for next season please?


First team players under contract (or with clause of extension):

Mehmet
Otoo
Benedictus
JCM (extension clause presumably will be activated)
Sam Young
Fisher
Ngwenya
KRH
Keith Bray (once he returns from Inverness loan)
Todd
Tod Jr
McCann (has an extension clause)
Kane
T Sutherland
Connor Young


^^^ Thanks for that King Lad
There are some in that list I wish weren`t but hopefully may improve under NL

Still too many who haven’t shown enough under contract, hopefully they can be loaned or freed out.

Noticed Todd subbed at half time yesterday, he’s another who if he was out of contract would be away. Will be interesting to see about the 2 we have options , presumably we’ll take JCM but will be interesting to see the length of the deal etc and will we add Lenny to the list of managers who have kept McCann on.

Strange about contracts being up until late May, you’d have thought they would be told they are not being kept on in the week following the Morton game so we must continue to pay them for another month even after telling them they will be away.

Believe Jake Sutherland still has until 2026 going by an article last year


That article last year was about Taylor, Andrew Tod and Sam Young .

Jake was signed on a two year apprenticeship in the summer of 2023
Yes it says in the article from March 2024 Jake has 2 years to run .but I was talking to Jake he says it runs out in May

All clubs will have to consider the possibility of being involved in play-offs surely when deciding the expiry dates of contracts? The end of the month seems reasonable in the circumstances.

That`s a shame, hopefully he gets extended!

Few people have mentioned the option on Jeramiah Chilokoa-Mullen, but I`m sure I read when we signed Omar Rivaldo Taylor-Clarke that we also had an option on him? I`d expect most of our young prospects (the Tods, the Sutherlands, Sam Young, Margetts, Briggs, Rowe, etc) to still be employed by us one way or another next season, with some/all going out on loan for at least the first half of the season.

I think we need to be savage where we can this close season.

Only players I’d like to see next season that we have so far are:

Tobi
C. Young
Otoo
Mullen
Bray
Kane (if he can prove his fitness)
Wanyama (if he can get fit!)

A lot of fans dislike Tash, and I think he will go, but I think there is a player in there, talented boy, wouldn’t be against him staying.

McCann has had enough opportunities and the rest if we are really serious about moving forward, we need to be striving for better.

Appreciate we have folk still on contract, still spewing over that 3yr Mehmet deal so we’re going to be stuck with a few.

Going to be an exciting close season anyway

Agree berry but I’m not sure how Kane is supposed to prove his fitness? He had a customised pre season this season in an effort to get more minutes out of him and it didn’t make any difference so think we’re going to have to accept another year of it and make a decision next summer. Fancy he’ll be one of 3 main strikers alongside young and a new striker.

Tash is on his way out of football, clearly got the talent but lost the hunger and interest in the game so can’t see him staying and wouldn’t want him too.

I think you’re basing your opinion of wanyama on a player that unfortunately no longer exists. I’d be waiting until he’s gone through pre season and the friendlies before considering anything if it was me.
