and the managers say should be final in any club , if SK didnt want him hed be on his way.

neither should be anywhere near a time with aspirations to improve.

😁 Got mine yesterday just before the announcement.... to be fair their process for the new digital option was first class, absolutely seamless, now in my google wallet.

yeah but these offers may be made on the basis that SK wasnt able to keep all the ones he made offers to stay.

if everyone offered has resigned the big reset / rebuild wouldnt be on , SK would be happy to go again with pretty much the same squad which I find baffling. .

i have no objection to McGinn im pleased hes signed, it its all the rest

as someone mentioned on twitter we offered contracts to nearly every defender that could only muster 3 clean sheets all season. Thats a worry for me.

Dear Christ we've offered Mugabi another contract. What a waste of limited funds. I know it's all opinions and others will think different. My only hope he refuses and gets a better offer.

no great surprise he reminded me of stuart carswell in many ways and was never going to breakthrough just like Carswell, might do a job in the lower divisions

If Mugabi ends up at Dundee Utd his agent should win an award for the best con in history.

mathematically yes , ability and performance wise it was never happening, however its all about opinions if you think that squad would serve us well next season id just need to respectfully disagree.

that Motherwell team was never getting into the top 6 as it proved to be. When you defend like a pub team you dont get the rewards.

top 6 will only be a hope if we get shot of 75% of that squad. That squad will always keep us down amongst the dead men.

dont forget the utterly inept efforts in the Cups....

i really hope you are right

to be fair how can the manager legislate for some of our comedy gold that passes for defending. He cant so he needs to move on the regular culprits. Im relieved that will probably be Mugabis last ever game for us. As big a bomb scare now as he was when he first signed for us. My worry is , if rumours are true, we've recruited Obileye who on the basis of what Ive seen is worse.

correct if anything that should surely convince some that most of that squad need moved on. They will always keep us 9th/10th. SK has a real opportunity to clear the decks and rebuild. My fear is he offers contracts to most of them when he should be showing the door to more than half.

Nicholson and McGinn and give SOD something linked to the coaching side , for me the rest can all piss off. Oxburgh is an unknown but if the manager thinks hes a good replacement for Kelly then Yes. I actually think Kelly has only kept his place because the manager didnt want to ruin his chances of a place in the Euro squad.

100% correct some of our results do blind folk to the fact we are a pretty ordinary bordering on poor team. That squad will always fall to the kind of levels seen tonight.

you are right we can win them all but I dont care how anyone dresses it up that squad will always keep us fighting down at the wrong end of the table. Fundamental changes need to be made in the summer.

the media team have a thankless tasks , very often they have to sell an upbeat message of the back of utterly honking performances when fans dont want to hear it.

likewise

if im being honest i really dont know how we managed that. it was an outstanding result but the performance was not alot to shout about , however its a results business and we will gladly take it. Craigan saying on the radio he doesnt think theres any chance Bair will be with us next season.... wonder if thats a punt or he knows something

Fair point but I still believe there is a lot of room for improvement in the defence. Some of our defending this year has been brutal and teams didn't need to work hard to get goals off us. The amout of goals we lost from corners and set pieces was frankly laughable at times. Of course others are free to feel differently just how I see it.

"Our problem defensively this season has been losing a relatively small number of goals per game, but in almost every game" ... so does that not suggest we need to concede less goals thus getting more points from games that we narrowly lost or drew. I think it does. Sure you can argue if we score more the net improvement could be the same. However I think that's a seriously harder ask than cutting out some of the comedy gold goals we gave away.
