R.R.FC Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Am I right in thinking the following are/were out of contract? McGurn Thomson Bene Davo McKay Miller Anderson Armstrong Dingwall Matthews Victoria Allan There is genuinely not many on that list I’d be desperate to get rid of. I think McGurn will continue as coach but may still be registered as an emergency back up option. Victoria and Allan will be off. I would have Bene and Matthews as priorities and I think Armstrong was coming onto a game before things stopped. I think the rest can go either way but I think McGlynn will probably keep most of them for squad depth. The most in doubt are Anderson and Dingwall who I would move on (as much as I like Grant). Depends if he thinks he can get an upgrade on Thomson in goals and Miller at right back too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Allan and Victoria will be away you imagine. Matthews and Armstrong I think ought to he the priorities out of that. Happy to keep a few others as well, but wouldn't keep all. What remains to be seen is how we structure ourselves next year in terms of our PT/FT split. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think any of them are likely to make an impact on the Championship. I also have doubts over McKay and Miller as well as the usual question mark over Davo. Armstrong was disappointing this time round but I'll cut him some slack and hope that was as a result of the injury he was carrying. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armstrong was carrying an injury for a bit but I thought he had a lot going for him, beyond the tricky winger stereotypes - thought some of his vision of passing was really good, and then there is his dead ball. Hoping he stays. Otherwise in agreement with you, suspect McKay can and will do better, but centre half, right back, and about three forwards are a must. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R.R.FC Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Over 400 games for the club and Davo still polarises opinion. He was very good after the East Fife debacle (aside from the couple of standard Davo red mist moments of stupidity) so I am happy with him being signed up again, I think it’s the right call. However, at 35 I’d hope it is as dependable back up with a new CB brought in beside Bene. The fact they’ve announced two centre backs first makes me think they’re announcing them in order of position, does that suggest Thomson hasn’t been re-signed? Or am I reading far too much into it? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantene proV Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 I guess we're keeping most of our budget back for attackers then 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Davidson improved massively as the season went on, especially after the turn of the year. Probably need to do better than that as 1st choice if we are in the Championship next season, but it's not a disastrous signing by any means. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paco Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Davidson improved massively as the season went on, especially after the turn of the year. Maybe it was that month off he got himself after the Airdrie red card! We will, surely, see at least one new centre back. And someone we’d expect to start at that. Davidson as a back-up is fine but the Davo/Bene pairing was abysmal at times in League 1 let alone the Championship. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SanStarko Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Two more re-signings at three o'clock. Hopefully one of them will be Matthews. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumswall Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Davo had a decent second half to last season. I'm not too fussed that's he's staying on but I do hope we're signing someone to start ahead of him most weeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TxRover Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 I think McKay is a better choice than Miller if we only keep one of them. Can play more positions and is the better back, but if we keep him and Mendy, can we afford another CB? I do wonder if Miller could transition to winger. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
