kni Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Hope Doolan is on that list... I've got a gut feeling that Doolan will be leaving Firhill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaggernaut Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 In today's ET Archie talks about it being hard to let Craig know he wasn't being kept on. Interesting that he mentions breaking the news to "trainees". Maybe no other first team squad member is being released? http://www.eveningtimes.co.uk/sport/sfl/it-is-not-good-to-talk-for-archie-123100n.20973525 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brodieboy Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 (edited) Can't see Campbell, Elliott or Scully being offered new deals. Weren't good enough for the 1st. The delay might be down to the off chance someone comes in for them and we're due some sort of compo Edited May 3, 2013 by brodieboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cup Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11095/8685296/ A piece on Sky Sports that some Championship team and McNamara are chasing Steve Lawless. Don't they know that Paul Slane is available?! Much better player IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Third Lanark Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 I know Welsh has at least another year but would thought he would be offered a deal, though thats providing the information in the newspaper was correct Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan100 Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 BBC Scottish football Gossip site said that Hibs were looking at Doolan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Arch Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Halsmen is off according to his Twitter. Sad when a youth player leaves but don't think he'd have got near an SPL team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jagsman Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 if team thought anything of them they would have got more matches throughout season am more worried about losing 1 of our star players at the moment also with further investment in youth development i believe that in a few years time our future will be bright Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kni Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 The Glaswegian says that Archie has offered Doolan a new contract. "The Jags have made new offers to out of contract players including Kris Doolan, Ross Forbes, Stephen O'Donnell and Stuart Bannigan."

Jaggernaut Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 I like the fact that Archie is letting the players offered new contracts know that he won't wait around for long on them making their decision. He wants to get the core of his squad in place sooner rather than later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Kenny Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Dowie not been offered a new deal according to Archie in the match preview. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Arch Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Dowie being released strikes me as being similar to Scott Robertson being released last year. Seems a bit harsh at the time, but if he goes and finds someone of similar quality to Muirhead then he won't be missed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggernaut Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Dowie not been offered a new deal according to Archie in the match preview. Interesting one. He did a very good job for us, I thought, and has been there (SPL) before; still only 30. The question now is whether Archie already has a good central defender in his sights, or is taking a chance on somebody becoming available at the end of the season.

Collins Out! Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 I'm quite liking this ruthless streak in Archie so far. I think it is what Britton and Whyte lacked when they stepped up to the management role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagsfan1963 Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 I wonder if McMillan will be offered a deal as he can play RB or centre back. Good signs that Archie knows what he wants and isn't looking to make himself popular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Willjag Posted May 3, 2013 Members Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Looks like he's prepared to stick with the Balatoni/Muirhead partnership so understandable in those circumstances. I don't think Dowie would be happy to be a reserve at this stage of his career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cup Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Dowie not been offered a new deal according to Archie in the match preview. Quite right. He did us a decent turn but he isn't good enough for the SPL. I hope Tena from Livi comes in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
