David Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 Not too sure about him to be honest. He's nearly thirty, and has had a pretty erratic career for the past three years or so, seeing five clubs in that period. I'd prefer we went for someone a bit younger that may provide some sell-on value down the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mightywellscott Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 We might not be in a position to be too picky and also McCall hasn't done too badly with his signings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finlay Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 .....and perhaps, if true, the clearest indication yet that Jenno is offski. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Dog Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 When Kenny Black said "we'll know by the weekend" (re. Jenno) did he have any particular weekend in mind? Seems the boy likes to keep us waiting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 Is johnny Hayes not available on a free Aye, and he'd do the business for us, but sadly out of our price range I think. Enjoyably, Aberdeen announced they'd signed him last week, which he subsequently rubbered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Wellfan 2k7 Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 1340144569[/url]' post='345920']Aye, and he'd do the business for us, but sadly out of our price range I think. Enjoyably, Aberdeen announced they'd signed him last week, which he subsequently rubbered. He said on twitter that he hopes to sign for someone tomorrow, or at least have it sorted so he can tell all his loving followers. As you say, he's not signing for us.

siebsbarmyarmy Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 Reading that article I think we should change the title to 2012\14 Outs thread. Doubt we will see much happening inwards at all. Would we see an influx of signings if the clubs vote Yes re a Newco? I severely doubt it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobey_Dosser Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 Wish him all the best wherever he goes. Outstanding performer during his time at the club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welldaft Mk1 Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 Wish him all the best wherever he goes. Outstanding performer during his time at the club. He has stayed longer than we expected, but it would be a sore one for him to move on when we are in the Champions league. Probably for him as well to be fair. The delay is that he is probably hoping for better than Portsmouth and Peterborough who have been quoted as interested. Problem is we cannot wait forever. It is a dilemna for McCall, does he force a decision or bide his time and hope for the best. Only consolation is he takes a few weeks after summer to get back to full fitness. If that is any consolation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuwell Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 Thought he would have got an offer from better teams. Best of luck to him for the future. TBH he only stayed last season because of the betting thing or he'd have been off last season. Pity he didn't get a better team, it could have persuaded others to come up for a couple of seasons.

joewarkfanclub Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 Surely we could sign him on a short term deal to play in the Champions League, with a clause he can go for free if and when a better club comes in for him? Not like hws gonna be cup tied wherever he goes..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewarkfanclub Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 i would disagree with that. I think that if he is not willing to commit to a 1 year contract (which is awfully short anyway) then we should not be bending over backwards to get him in for the champions league games. We will survive with or without Dont disagree. We will survive and we will replace Jenno eventually. But the chances of getting a replacement of equal quality in between now and Champions League deadline are pretty minimal. I know we are unlikely to progress in the CL but I would like us to give a good account of ourselves and at have a go at least getting Europa League Group stage. For that reason I think a short term deal could suit both parties. Jenno gets to play Champions League before moving on before the window shuts and we get the benefit of one of our most influential players to have a real tilt at doing something historic that could make a dent in the hole in our finances.

What happens if Jennings breaks a leg or snaps his achilles like Saunders during one of these games and is out for the season? We wouldn't extened his deal as we couldn't afford to keep paying someone we couldn't play & Jennings would be left without a contract and with no income for a lengthy period of time. Not to mention no club to pay his medical bill. It's a nice idea in theory, but it's too risky and sadly not a goer. Jennings either signs for another year or he leaves.
