What a reputable source? Is Nixon and Cross a reputable source? 

Reputably inaccurate if not a tip-off from the nameless one.

Conway set to put pen to paper to new deal very shortly..link provided in the Transfer link thread

Contract news: ?

Use of threads: ?

[JacknOry]

Lenihan is the one i want to hear about and then Dack. Hopefully we start moving in the transfer market once we have tied down the players we want.

If it's on lower wages than before, and a pay-as-you-play deal then I'm fine with it. He has a lot to prove after the last couple of seasons in my opinion.

I don't mind as long as there is acceptance on both sides that he isn't going to be a starter. I didn't like it last season when he had a run of starting games when everyone knew he couldn't last 90 minutes and would need to be taken off after 60 minutes. That isn't his fault and I don't doubt his effort and professionalism, its just a sign of the times that he cannot complete 90 minutes any more. It seems silly to me starting him knowing that one of our subs is already used up taking Conway off after an hour.

If he knows and the manager knows that he's a second half sub that can come on and use his experience then I'm happy with it.

As you say if he he starts that's a sub used up straight away. It doesn't make any sense to me. The guy is getting older and slower and we're playing at a higher level.

Any news on Pilkington?

So, let me get this straight, you don't think we should have signed Conway to a new deal?

happy that DG has re-sgined for another season. Would rather of let Conway go tho....Didnt look too great in league one. I think his age has caught up with him. DG would be a good squad player. Need some strikers in the door.

Obviously he doesn't.  However, it's what Mowbray thinks that matters. And if he wants him he obviously has plans on ways he thinks he can use him

I was joking asking him. He says it everytime Conway is mentioned

I must say that I am completely underwhelmed by the resigning of Conway other than as an out and out coach.

I thought I'd made that pretty clear. No. I would have thanked him for his service and allowed him to join another club. Re-signing him isn't a step in the right direction. Just my opinion of course.

Not happy with that to be honest. That money could have been better spent elsewhere. How many games will he start next season ?

Im very happy we re sign on a new contract

His experience and knowledge will be assest this season.

I agree, especially since we have 0 out and out wingers at the club. Will be a good backup/squad option

If we have 0 out and out wingers, that doesn't justify offering a deal to someone, who is a busted flush (my opinion , of course)

More likely an indication of budget levels and inability to spend on fresh players.

Josh Murphy to Cardiff, wonder if that'll see us in for Pilkington

If we had signed a 33 year old from another club on a one year deal people would be up in arms. I don't buy the leader/coach/experience/knows the club line that is being spun to justify his contract. I have seen enough of him over the last couple of seasons to know he simply isn't good enough anymore.

Agreed.I don't buy it either. Going a bit further, I am troubled by the decision and what it could imply....

It's funny that people are getting worried because Conway is about to sign a 1 year extension

Me too. Would we be resigning the likes of Conway if we had real money to spend ?
