What sort of money to GTFC offer? Obviously, by coming out with this statement, you know what Summers and DC have been offered.

Strange that Pearson was given no time at all last year to weigh up the options it was a case of "sign here , no, good bye then" but these two are afforded all this time , what a difference a year makes .

You're assuming that's what the hold-up is.

With Shaun wasn't it the other way around? That he was the one waiting on whether Town could offer him something and he got to the point where he couldn't wait any longer so moved on?

We are all making assumptions on DC and Summers, but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to work out they have other deals on the table and are weighing up their options, which in any walk of life any person would do and we would all do what's best for ourselves and our families.
Got to say it doesn't always cone down to financials as you only need to look at macca and his reasons for staying with us.
Whatever the pair of them decide to do we should respect their decision and either get behind them if they stay or wish them well for the future because the one thing I will not condemn for is lack of effort or not giving a toss if we got relegated last season because I honestly believe they were 75% of the reason we get to see league football again this season.

The squad will start really coming together July 1st when new contracts are awarded.I think we are in for a much better season with whatever players we have and certainly we will see some much better football.

Or a different manager. One that would appear to have more 'man management' skills in his little finger than the last manager had throughout his whole life !!


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

He clearly had an offer already on the table that was good and didn't want to wait on a manager deciding if he wants to keep him at the club. It seemed like Slade was focused on bringing his own guys in, but was struggling to get his first choices. Pearson just didn't want to wait around to see if he's second of third choice.

I thought the story was Slade wanted to keep Pearson but needed rid of Boyce first to do so. But Shaun didn't want to wait any longer not knowing if he was going to receive an offer so took the offer already on the table from Wrexham.

Has Collins signed? There is an article on the OS front page "Danny Collins Returns To Town" but the link does not work....

Nothing on Twitter yet either.
