The summers when we’ll be doing main our business, also we’re more likely to get bids for Ferguson and Ramsay then. How many of the out of contracts do people see getting a new deal? Hedges, Hayes,McGinn, McGeouch, Ojo & Considine all out of contract in the summer. Hedges - 100% gone Hayes - might scrape 12 month contract? McGinn - released McGeouch - released (decent player but never fit) Ojo - wants to leave so expect him to go. Hopefully. Glass loves him though. That’s about £15k per week off the wage bill if they all go. Link to comment

Hedges, Hayes,McGinn, McGeouch, Ojo & Considine all out of contract in the summer. We are unlikely to qualify for Europe which, given third is likely to get ECL group stage football as a minimum is a big financial blow. I think what has often held us back is the fact we are still making signings towards the end of August. Last year we signed both Bates and Watkins late in the window, from memory neither of them playing v Qarabag. Link to comment

We could’ve done with a player or two to improve the starting X1 before the game against the scum. And apparently Ryan Broom not starting for Plymouth again. Fuck that if he’s supposedly lined up as Ryan Hedges replacement. Maybe that's why he isnt starting Link to comment

Hedges, Hayes,McGinn, McGeouch, Ojo & Considine all out of contract in the summer. That's when all clubs do their main business. January is a window to make minor changes and tweaks to your squad. The problem we have is that we made such a cunt of the summer window that this window really needed just as much of a clear out and rebuild. Not suggesting we were ever going to sign 5 or more players but it was certainly needed. Giving McGinn and Devlin new deals was an absolutely shambolic decision. Signing JET was a terrible decision. Gurr was a fucking awful signing. Samuels was an awful signing that most knew wouldn't work. Out of all his signings so far maybe 3 have been a success. Should we only make 1 more signing in this window then we deserve all we get. Which will be back to bottom 6 mediocrity. It's pretty embarrassing in all honesty. 1 Link to comment

Hedges, Hayes,McGinn, McGeouch, Ojo & Considine all out of contract in the summer. Of that lot.......I think Hayes might get another year. He's lost his pace but gives a bit of cover for a few positions down the left. Considine probably the same unless it's absolutely clear he's physically not up to it (then again it doesn't seem to put us off giving Devlin extensions) McGeouch if you had asked me a month ago Id've said yes to keep some continuity, but on reflection he's just another that is too injury prone and a waste of a very high wage/ McGinn.......bye and thanks for everything Ojo........he is the one I just can't predict. For whatever reason Glass seems to love him. I don't think hes a terrible as some on here claim, but I do think he's bang average and if rumours are true and he is one of our higher earners then I think we can easily find someone that's younger, cheaper and better. But I have a nasty feeling Glass will at least offer a new contract....whether or not he accepts is again another matter Link to comment

fine-n-dandy Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 We should 100% take whatever fee we can get for hedges now but this delusional shite that he’s not good enough for top of championship or lower EPL shite is nonsense. We weren’t that far off Burnley when we played them. Not like they slaughtered us.

Yes but the point is that a shit load of lower EPL teams also aren’t consistent enough to play at the top level ? Hedges is perfectly capable of being in those sides. Especially when on form.

That would tip fans over the edge. Don't think we'll go anywhere near him. Incredible that we only have one recognised striker in the squad though. If Ramirez gets injured the day after the window shuts, who on earth do we play up front for the rest of the season?! JET who can't run and would constantly be hanging about on the half way line when we need him in the box.... Watkins who's injured every other week and isn't really a goal scorer... McLennan whose a winger and utter cack... McGinn who's past it now sadly... I can't even think of any other options. I think we've been extremely lucky up until this point that he's not missed a game through injury - I highly doubt whether he'll make it through the next few months playing every minute of every game. Surely we'll at least sign a striker on loan in this window?! Link to comment

And when said midfielder scores a goal Cormack will be on Sportsound blowing his own trumpet about how brilliant a decision it was to hire Glassdiola as manager. But, in all aeriousness, we need at least 1 striker in this window. Still need at least 2 more aswell. Polvara is on his way over now but i don't think anyone should really be expecting much from him this season. Probably next season before he's ready for a regular role. But i fear that's not what will come out of the club. Link to comment
