Will DK Act NOW?

[B.W.]

OK... we are safe now... so...

Will DK sort out Wendy's contract now?

Will the board act proactively (for once) to protect our key assets by signing the players that are out of contract that we actually want to keep, e.g. Bas, Bertin?

Will we finally offload the deadwood?

 

[Withdean Wanderer]

I'm thinking someone on the board doesn't like Wilkins, or there wouldn't have been a delay

 

[B.W.]

You could be right there... but, we do the same thing every summer... we are far too slow to sign the players out of contract who we want to keep... we are far too slow in finding new players... this season, with our mid-table mediocre finish, we have a chance to get ahead of the game... the big question is... will we do so?

 

[Tony Meolas Loan Spell]

Trouble is with our board is that they do not learn lessons from history.

 

[B.W.]

Agreed... although I hope they do this time... we really do have an opportunity here to build the squad to one that can seriously challenge next season...

 

[Icy Gull]

If he's got any sense he will have legged it back to Spain until mid summer when it's so hot he'll probably come back to the UK and get on with sorting out the contracts. 11th hour is the way we do it here, no need to change now

Mid table mediocrity will do next year when we've lost the cream of this years squad and replaced them with the newly signed youth teamers.

 

[Napper]

dont be stupid , DK is a penny pincher and will leave till the last minute as usual.
Our summers wouldnt be the same without large amounts of bullshit

 

[Icy Gull]

I have no idea what's going on in the background but I wouldn't blame DW for touting himself around if DK hasn't made it plain he intends to extend his contract and give him some funds. The man deserves better than being hung out to dry like MM was.

I would like to see Deano offered a new contract now. I fear that DK wants Micky Adams to return. Micky is an Albion legend but I don't think one should return to places of past success.

 

[NS Herald]

I think some people think too much.

Yes we would all (most people) like to see the DW situation sorted out asap but just becuase it hasn't happened yet doesn't mean there is anything sinister going on.

DK would be very foolish to deliberately delay the DW situation longer than necessary and to be fair Deano is pretty new at the job. If we had 6 points less would people be in such a hurry?

Have patience people and chill.

However if we do lose Bertin and co because of any unnecessary delays then burn him

I think it's just frustration born of everything at this club being done at snail's pace.

That's what i'm thinking - although i'd like to see MA back. Director of football, anyone?

Your expectations are far too low...

... but MM deserved to be hung out to dry, IMHO...

But... DK's track record on this is fcuking awful... how can we chill-out when history shows we are always, always too fcuking slow?

Awful being?

Micky Adams or Peter Taylor or Steve Coppell or Mark McGhee?

 

[Stinky Kat]

more to the point will Kerry get his testomonial

He certainly deserves it. Quality delivery for the opening goal and I can't see why this is still being delayed.

Hope he is still an Albion player when it does finally happen

 

[Jimbo26]

I don't think Wendy has the clout to bring better players in for next season. I hate to say it but I think we will finish mid table again next year.

One thing that has impressed me about Wilkins is the players that he has brought in.
