1. Author: 2004Par Date: Wed 7th May 2025. 14:04 From COWS-Following the conclusion of the 2024/25 season, Dunfermline Athletic can provide the following squad update. Leaving the club at the end of their contracts are Aaron Comrie, Joe Chalmers, Craig Wighton, Rhys Breen, David Wotherspoon, Craig Clay, Michael O’Halloran and Omar Taylor-Clarke. Would have kept comrie IMO and maybe Clay. Post Edited (Wed 07 May 14:04) Reply |

3. Author: KnebworthPar Date: Wed 7th May 2025. 14:08 2004Par, Wed 7 May 14:04 No surprises there I guess. Wish them all the best. Reply |
4. Author: TrancePar Date: Wed 7th May 2025. 14:14 Wouldn`t have kept any of them other than Clay as Lennon seemed to get the best out of him but I`m confident we`ll get much better in next season...right? Life is made of small moments like these Reply |
5. Author: Ahoy!Ahoy! Date: Wed 7th May 2025. 14:14 Delighted with that, each player has played there part during their time with the club but now is the time to move on and let us build as a club pushing for promotion. I assume Lennon will be announced soon as he would’ve had the final decision over who goes and who stays. Reply |
6. Author: RossF Date: Wed 7th May 2025. 14:16 Why on earth are we talking to Wanyama and Oakley-Boothe? Comrie would have been a good option to keep but agree with the rest leaving. Reply |
7. Author: Parsweep Date: Wed 7th May 2025. 14:17 Only one one I`d disagree with is Comrie . Consistent and still think better to come from him . Bobvo Reply |
8. Author: TAFKA_Super_Petrie Date: Wed 7th May 2025. 14:17 Cannot argue with that. Major overhaul required and need to be ruthless. --------------------------------------------------------------- ![]() [b]"People always talk about Ronaldinho and magic, but I didn't see him today.

9. Author: wee eck Date: Wed 7th May 2025. 14:20 The opening post omitted this bit- Dialogue remains ongoing with Chris Hamilton, Josh Cooper, Tashan Oakley-Boothe, Jeremiah Chilokoa Mullen and Victor Wanyama. Young players Jake Sutherland Liam Hoggan and Ewan McLeod have all been offered new terms. Goalkeeper Lewis Briggs will be leaving the club at the end of his contract and we thank him for his efforts while at the club. Lewis McCann has also undergone surgery following his recent injury, and the club will provide facilities for his rehabilitation and will remain in dialogue with Lewis. Further updates will be issued in due course. Reply |
10. Author: DunPar Date: Wed 7th May 2025. 14:21 Wow - our squad list on Wikipedia updated already !!! Reply |
11. Author: king lad Date: Wed 7th May 2025. 14:23 Oakley Boothe is a bit of a shock, haven`t seen anything impressive from him really. Wanyama isn`t a surprise with the noises coming from the club, Hamilton didn`t have the best of seasons but I understand him being kept (as a squad option). Delighted with Cooper and JCM, moreso the latter but Cooper has shown promise when given the chance. Reply |
12. Author: Never10yairds Date: Wed 7th May 2025. 14:23 I’d liked to have seen two or three more names on that list to be honest. Reply |
13. Author: Jeffery Date: Wed 7th May 2025. 14:24 No huge surprises in the departure list. Wish them all well in future. A couple of things that do spring to mind:- 1 - Glad we`ve offered rehab to McCann. He`s a long serving player and deserves the support to get back with us or someone else. 2 - What has happened to Mebude? He seems to have disappeared since going to Septemvri. 3 - Slight worry that we`re negotiating with Chilokoa-Mullen. I had hoped that 1 year `option` would be a done deal. 4 - Surprised we`re negotiating with Wanyama. Reply |
14. Author: wee eck Date: Wed 7th May 2025. 14:25 `Why on earth are we talking to Wanyama and Oakley-Boothe?` Presumably because the manager might want to keep them, as will be the case for the others we are `in dialogue` with. Reply |
15. Author: RossF Date: Wed 7th May 2025. 14:27 You know exactly what I mean eck. They showed very little on the pitch to merit talking to them. Reply |
16. Author: GJS93 Date: Wed 7th May 2025. 14:27 no mention of Mebude.... only surprise in the list is there arent more, the Mullen situation is a bit strange when they have the option already in place, thought thats what would happen with McCann because of the injury but the rest should be going also imo. the kids, Sutherland and McLeod were a no brainer, didnt think Hoggan would be offered anything though. edit: the "dialogue" might be come back for preseason and we will see, it might not mean they have all been offered a new contract.

17. Author: Raymie the Legend Date: Wed 7th May 2025. 14:29 I did say the JCM situation was a worry. It’s fine having an option, but not every offer of a job is taken up. ![]() It`s bloody tough being a legend Ron Atkinson - 1983 Post Edited (Wed 07 May 14:29) Reply |
18. Author: Ahoy!Ahoy! Date: Wed 7th May 2025. 14:30 I would imagine the negotiations with Mullen will probably be to do with the length of contract. Rumours are we had a one year option but I’d imagine the club may want to increase that. Reply |
19. Author: neils Date: Wed 7th May 2025. 14:31 I`m presuming Mullen is more to tie him to a longer contract. Reply |
20. Author: Buster_Brown Date: Wed 7th May 2025. 14:31 Can’t say I’m surprised at the list. I think they’re the right players to be leaving, although Comrie might feel hard done by (assuming it was not his choice) and I did wonder if Lennon saw a future, in some capacity, for Clay. As has been mentioned, I’m surprised that Tash is in talks. Can’t say that I have seen much to suggest he is a player that will cut it, but Lennon has mentioned him a few times in interviews and obviously sees something he can work with and develop. As for the others, I’m neither here nor there about Hamilton, but have said before that Cooper could develop into an asset. Wanyama, we’ve all said it, give him a pre-season and time and he could rip this league apart, let’s hope that’s the plan. By and large, I’m happy…..still leaves a lot of spaces to fill and the overhaul has started. Reply |
