Topic: Player update
21. Author: da_no_1 Date: Wed 27th May 2026. 20:30 Hammy and Matty were exactly what we needed to get out of League 1 first time of asking. I`ll always remember them and thank them for that. A wee bit of the Pars goes with them. Very best wishes to them both. "Some days will stay a 1000 years, some pass like the flash of a spark" Reply
22. Author: Indiapar1 Date: Wed 27th May 2026. 21:01 wee eck, Wed 27 May 19:50 There`s a nice farewell message from Hammy on COWS. Personally I thought he could still do a job for the club. Still after 4 years maybe its time for him to go elsewhere and get regular game time. He was there when we needed him, slotted into the centre of defence to help out in difficult times. I wish him well, he has been a good servant at the club. G Wardrope Reply
23. Author: neils Date: Wed 27th May 2026. 21:03 That was a great message from Hammy on the website. Surprised about Bene, but he`s been a really good captain, has a real rapport with the fans, so I can definitely see the need for his presence. Sad to see Hammy go, but for his own career and for us it`s probably for the better. The others released as expected. Good luck. Reply

26. Author: neilholland999 Date: Wed 27th May 2026. 21:22 I wonder if Hammy will end up back at Arbroath Reply

28. Author: thebear Date: Wed 27th May 2026. 21:27 Surprised about bene, not many minutes recently was once ok. Not convinced now. Any whichever, good luck to him Reply
29. Author: 1985Par Date: Wed 27th May 2026. 21:30 I’m really surprised Hamilton was let go. Sentiment aside, he’s a decent player and was outstanding on occasions last season and, in my opinion, easily good enough to be part of a championship winning squad. I’ll scratch my head however and let the manager get on with his job. Reply
30. Author: KirklistonPar Date: Wed 27th May 2026. 21:33 Sad to see players leave especially Matty & Hamilton. They have all had there moments where they have done good. All the best to them in the future, just don’t comeback and score against us. I think Bene working behind the scenes helping mentor the young lads and playing in games where required is a great idea. The squad does need a rebuild with stronger/ more experienced players on the bench if we want to be champions next season. The current owners and NL are our best chance of doing this rebuild correctly. We’ve struggled a bit with summer signings previously so I’m hopeful of getting a big name in early doors to show our intent. It’s gonna be a exciting time seeing who we get in. Reply
31. Author: twin par Date: Wed 27th May 2026. 21:48 Sad to see good guys go. But suppose,sitting in the stands we all think we know better.Obviously,that’s not the case.We have to trust our management team,and remaining players ,and new guys coming in,to move us forward,hopefully to better things.From a personal point of view,it’s be a fantastic season,I have loved every minute,so I say thank you,to every single one at east end,past and present.

32. Author: Hoolie Date: Wed 27th May 2026. 21:56 I think as pars fans we are to sentimental over past players. Don’t get me wrong players leaving have been great for the team BUT we are going for promotion next season and require experienced players to take us there..maybe a couple of raw players that want to prove themselves. IMO Matty Todd needs a different atmosphere/team to progress and Iv no doubt he will improve as he has the desire to get to the top. Hammy..a player you could rely on when the going gets tough in games but deffo yellow card as soon as he came on. Bene giving a coach role for the younger lads and on the bench to shore things up with 10 mins to go is a good move. The others let go and I wish them all well but it’s a good decision. This is our year that we need promotion and we need better players to achieve this. Will be a very interesting transfer window and expect some unknown players coming in like last season. Reply
