McCoist to meet Wallace to discuss summer signings


Recommended Posts

Are we sure this list is right? Little was looking for a new contract recently and so was moshni.

 

Much like Black, who is also contracted till 2015. They are on 2 or 3 year deals and sure look to extend these beyond that period. Of course, all such debate carries the notion that their contract end is nigh and the papers sure make it look like that. Until people read the fine print ...

Our problem is that nobody will want many of our players and those in demand are most likely none that we would like to lose. You would hope that we can arrange some sort of loan-agreement with an low-key English team and send a few youngsters and fringe players there for half a season or so.

 

That's a bit of a depressing read if I'm totally, completely, brutally honest.

You're not buoyed up by the massive size and strength of our "bloated" and "unnecessary" squad then?

 

There's about 8 or 9 players in the squad who I don't think we need at all, but only 3 of those 8 or 9 players have contracts which end this summer.

 

Add to that the fact that you can count the number of exciting on players on less than 5 fingers and it's a recipe for Prozac abuse.

We have a defo first team squad of 21 players up there. Some people still play with the youngsters, a handful are injured. McCoist has roughly 18 first team players for selection right now. IMHO, that is not too much. We could shed up to 8 (sell/loan/free) of that total list above in the summer without weakening the side, but I assume that e.g. Hegarty and Perry are not in a hurry to leave. No ill feelings untowards them, but neither proved last season that they are good enough for us and this season hardly ever played due to injury. Shyte happens, but I reckon that neither would have been first choice had they been fit. I can't see Hutton getting a new deal either.

This is the worst part for me. Add up what these guys have contributed and then think about we need to pay them all for ANOTHER year is just quite frankly shocking mis-management (by whoever agreed their contracts).

IMHO, Foster has become this season's Black. He sure is not top notch, but neither is he utterly woeful.

 

I thought he played quite well against East Fife. He's not that bad.
