| 22. Author: Alf Date: Mon 5th May 2025. 19:04 If we are relying on Bene at the heart of our defence for next season, we might as well plan for relegation, to slow, to many mistakes, Tell him to find another club Reply |
| 23. Author: Never10yairds Date: Mon 5th May 2025. 19:18 Might be worth retaining Bene in the squad but maybe not necessarily as a first choice starter. We are going to need a squad of around 24 I would think if we are serious about having a crack at promotion. He is only going to get slower from this point…. Depends just how big the budget is going to be tho ultimately. Could be a lot of the players we do retain from the current squad become 2nd or 3rd choice for their position. Reply |
| 24. Author: Dave_1885 Date: Mon 5th May 2025. 19:46 The real question is this - how many of this current crop of players are good enough to be in a team fighting for the title next season? Honestly, Id say 2 maybe 3. There are 2/3 you g players that MAY develop to that level, but certainly need time to get there. That is why the majority of this lot should be sent packing and rebuild started sooner rather than later this year. Reply |

| 26. Author: Jacko Par42 Date: Mon 5th May 2025. 21:03 I’m sure he said at the end of his post match interview on Friday that he would be around this week to sit down with the players regarding who was staying and who was not getting retained Reply |
| 27. Author: Alter Ego Date: Mon 5th May 2025. 21:26 Get rid of the out of contract players now…Bene and Fisher will be up to the club with their court case..The club has to get things bone early regarding players and get a settled pre season and win the League next season!! Mon the Pars! Reply |
| 28. Author: Garvockpar14 Date: Mon 5th May 2025. 21:27 Lennon was on talksport this morning just before 9am discussing the old firm game. At the end he spent a couple minutes discussing Dunfermline. He was very complimentary about the owner, fan base and the size of the club. He felt it was an exciting project and said that talks to stay on were progressing well. Everything he says points to him being in charge next season. Reply |
| 29. Author: Raymie the Legend Date: Tue 6th May 2025. 06:15 Berry, Mon 5 May 15:50 Presumably, this is the list of players under contract and will be here next season, unless sold or loaned out? I can’t see too many of the out of contract players getting a new deal? I’d personally keep Cooper and Hamilton. I’m a bit worried about JCM. I think he might get a better offer and be off? Lennon has spoken well about Oakley- Boothe in his interviews. I hope Tobi can extend his loan. Comrie and McCann. Have they done enough to convince the manager ? His preferred three at the back, doesn’t play to Comrie’s strengths and McCann just doesn’t score enough. The manager has often said the team needs more goals. I’d expect the young lads in the reserves that have done well, will be retained. It could be adios to the rest ?

| 30. Author: camdeanboy85 Date: Tue 6th May 2025. 08:39 I wouldn`t keep Comrie personally. Gets a lot of praise for being solid and consistent but he`s not great imo, and has been part of a poor team for years now. Move on and get someone fresh in. Reply |
| 31. Author: Athletico Date: Tue 6th May 2025. 08:50 I’m a bit worried about JCM I`m not an expert in football contract law, but he signed a contract with us that included the option for the CLUB to extend it, if we trigger it, then he has no option. That`s how I`ve interpreted it anyway. Post Edited (Tue 06 May 08:50) Reply |
| 32. Author: camdeanboy85 Date: Tue 6th May 2025. 08:54 That`s true but do we want to stand in the way of a player, and retain him if he doesn`t want to be here? Reply |
| 33. Author: Lesliepartoo Date: Tue 6th May 2025. 08:57 camdeanboy85, Tue 6 May 08:54 Who doesn`t want to be here Cmon ye pars Reply |
| 34. Author: Bertie Paton Date: Tue 6th May 2025. 08:58 I agree about not extending Comrie. Good attitude but I don`t think he`s that good a footballer. I thought Welsh-Hayes looked better in the ball, more composed and physically stronger. I think we need better if we want to challenge at the top end. Post Edited (Tue 06 May 08:59) Reply |
| 35. Author: Never10yairds Date: Tue 6th May 2025. 09:06 We have an option of a one year contract on JCM and we are 100% taking it. This comes from someone very senior inside the club I spoke to a few weeks ago. It is very likely we are negotiating with him on a longer deal though. Reply |
| 36. Author: RhinoPars Date: Tue 6th May 2025. 09:14 I really hope we resign Josh Cooper Reply |
| 37. Author: neils Date: Tue 6th May 2025. 09:38 Agree with Cooper, we haven`t seen enough of him, and he has an instinct and positional sense that others lack. I feel would be an opportunity missed. Reply |
| 38. Author: parathletic Date: Tue 6th May 2025. 10:28 I always feel with Comrie it`s his distribution that lets him down but in the grand scheme of things our defensive record is what has saved us the last couple of seasons. If he could get somebody ahead of him on the right wing producing the goods I think he could come on again? At times I`ve felt he hasn`t had someone in front of him to aim at and showing for the ball. As always it depends on who the alternatives are and he might want a new challenge anyway but I think he would be one that would have no problem finding a club if we were to let him go. A bit of continuity in the defence might help us hit the ground running next season though? It`s the midfield and forward areas that have been lacking in general. Reply |
| 39. Author: Indiapar1 Date: Tue 6th May 2025. 10:36 I watched the Dunfermline V Rangers game from 2006-7. In terms of positivity and pressing forward, you can see the difference to the games we have watched this season. Driving forward into space, first time crosses, first time shot off inside the box. Hopefully we can get back to that style of play. G Wardrope Reply |
| 40. Author: sonofpetrie Date: Tue 6th May 2025. 12:08 Indiapar1, Tue 6 May 10:36 Don`t even have to go that far back. I stumbled on a game from 2015 or so on YouTube the other day. Faz, Moff etc. I felt like I was watching a different sport such was the movement and attacking play. "The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary" Reply |
