Got to keep guys like Stoney, McQuade, Div and Ovvie in there. Local guys who know what it's like for the fans. As I said, all decent players willing to fight for their place in the squad. These boys have spent weeks on the sidelines through injury yet are proud to pull on the black and gold when called upon. That means everything to this Fifer.

its ok saying Mcquade must be giving a chance but for me something about him stinks...here's a guy who should have ripped 2nd division defences apart but 2 managers now have seen fit to keep him on the bench mostly, which means his attitude in training cant be that great.
i'm not an admirer of Bobby Linn BUT we looked a far poorer team against Airdrie without him...very 1 dimensional on Saturday imo(great away support BTW).
Brown,Campbell,Whtye,Cook(good player to have in squad)Durie,Sloan(hopefully in central midfield!!)Smith,Linn,Wallace,McCormack.

I think all said we have had a good go at things. I feel it is a real shame that Hissy didn't get more minutes in several games. Once again yesterday when he came on we seemed to have a little edge. He holds the ball up far better than our other forwards and as for yesterday Scott Daziel how he didn't get taken off at half time I don't know. He is murder, does not have a clue, touch or any pace. He should be playing on a Sunday. Hope the two gordons get some players to play with for next season. Yesterday with out Bobby and Ryan we didn't have many options. PS at the begining of the season I thought Sloany was pish but rate him now and was disapointed to see him come off yesterday. Only thing is he always looks tired. I just wonder if he is trying to do too much running during the week. Good numbers yesterday again, we must have one of the best travelling supports in the league. Hope Ryan gets a decent Club If I was him the only teams in the first next season I would leave the fife for would be Falkirk or Dundee. I think he would do well under Elvis at Falkirk with a lot of other good young players.

There's no room for contracts being thrown about for sentimental reasons. As much as guys like Stoney put effort in, he sadly doesn't have the quality to perform week in week out at this level, 9/10 his crosses/corners don't beat the first man and for a winger it's not good enough! Same with Ovy, as much as he is good header of the ball and puts effort in, I'd rather have someone with a bit of tactical knowledge, Campbell has been our best centre half this season due to the fact he reads the game well not because he's the biggest or hardest tackler.

1/2 Defenders
2/3 Midfielders
& A Striker if Wallace does leave.

If we can get quality over quantity we'll be okay. Next season I really really hope we put a bit of faith in youth, our youth system/team has been up and running now for what 3 years? surely there are guys who could step upto the 1st team now?

Fine, move on but which players are out of contract at the end of the season and who has signed for next season. Anybody know ?

I may be wrong zak but if ryans out of contract how do we get money for him even if he is under 24,we got him for nothing when he left airdrie!Like i say i'm no expert on the complications of our transfer rules

as long as the club offer him a new contract then if he decides to leave any club signing him must pay a fee. Depending on where he goes it would not be an insignificant sum either!

I have been reading the posts on who people want to keep, and there are some listing 9/10 players. Personally i think we are overdue a wee clear out of players just for the sake of freshening up the squad! Last year we nearly reached the play-offs, and when we managed to tie down some of the key men from that campaign all of us were delighted. However if we look at this year the same shape and same key players have not managed to build upon last years progress. Maybe its time to look toward fresh blood, rather than sticking to what we know and bitching about them underperforming every week

Good point.
Pre season most of us thought we`d win this league given the players we have.
Time for exodus to commence. Clear the decks i say. Get rid of the dead wood.
Keep 5 and move the rest on.
