Taffin Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 1 hour ago, Allowayjambo1874 said: I do enjoy the football supporters skewed views on transfers, ‘release Amankwaa and free up a wage’. So we tell him he’s not wanted and he packs up and goes then, leaving behind a 6 month contract worth x amount? The reality is we may come to a deal but he’ll walk off with a large percentage of the money he would’ve been due so if you think of the economics of it the money we ‘save’ comes at the end of his contract not from the moment he walks out. The January budget is unaffected or even worse because of it. Appearance fees, bonuses, whether we lump sum what he's owed or amortized over the remainder of his deal could feasibly make a considerable saving or at least freeing up of cash flow. It's more accounting rather than economics. Equally it may not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out: Mitchell, Amankwaa, Djoum(refused new deal apparently)... Sammon and Edwards already out on loan. In: Naismith pre-contract(wishful thinking maybe), Extend the deals for Dunne if possible. Extend Haring, Uche, Souttar. New signings: Attempt to get Kamara from Dundee, and Stewart from Killie Thoughts 1) We shouldn't be giving up on Djoum unless he has something more lucrative lined up. I would ask him to come back to us and see if we can match what the other clubs are offering. Either way unless we are offered silly money he is with us until the end of the season - so why would we be keen to let him go? 2) I agree about extending Haring, Uche, Souttar should be the priority as these players are young enough to play for years to come or earn good transfer fees. 3) Naismith would be great but there is no point in busting the bank to get him 4) Amankwaa will leave I imagine. Possibly Mitchell too. 5) Centre back (hopefully Dunne) , left back and a left winger would be the positions we will target. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Famous 1874 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Would take Scott Allan. Not sure whether we’d be interested though. Much prefer Naisy up top so could get Allan in behind Naisy and Uche. Depends on whether Djoum is going or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jammy T Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 To be fair I’d be pretty hacked off if we didn’t coin in on an AFCON cup winner. We’ve got to profit on some players at times and Djoum isn’t indispensable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all seriousness though, Scott Allan would be an asset to just about any midfield in Scotland....great ability in finding the killer pass to unlock defences. Someone like him backed up by Haring would do some damage. Stick Naismith in an advanced midfield role with 2 wing backs, all supplying Uche and Vanecek...mouth watering. 1 hour ago, Rods said: Would like to see us get Scott Allan just for the wind up He was sitting in the Hibs end yesterday.

The priority should be getting Naismith on a pre contract, agreeing Jimmy Dunne’s loan extension and then like the OP stated, begin to dish out new contracts. I’d personally be trying to get Craig Halkett on a pre contract from Livi and push for Jordan Jones from Kilmarnock. Would not be surprised to see us agreeing a pre contract deal for Chris Cadden from Motherwell, although they will be due a development fee. No way we'll get Hallett.

Cruyff Turn Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Mitchell looks like he perhaps doesn’t want to be here and we’d need to replace him at left back. Jimmy Dunne may be recalled by Burnley as they are haemorrhaging goals and perhaps Dyche will want to give the boy a chance to step up after his immense displays here. We might have to look at replacing him depending on Souttars fitness but Michael Smith has never put a foot wrong at CB so it’s maybe a right back we need. We need a wide player imo unless Mulraney or Amankwaa find the baws to step up. Get Djoum, Naisy and Clevid signed up. I’d be looking to sign Chris’s Cadden as a solution at Right Mid/Wing Back in the summer. And a good solid goalkeeper, I’d take Bain from Celtic.

Bain is a big jambo but not sure Celtic would let him join us. Cadden I feel is inevitable, we’ve tried to get him twice before and now he is out of contract in then summer will see him head to the capital.
