Tough for the Titans, but you’ve gotta be happy for Jamal getting a big payday. He struggled to buy boots as a teenager, and this will set him up for life.

Just saw an email from the club wishing all the best to the players leaving the club - Aaron Woods and Will Chambers got a mention as well as Billy Magoulias. I hadn't heard he was leaving and haven't heard where he is off to - does anyone know?

It was funny that they referred to others that had left with the following sentence:

"To Aaron Woods, Will Chambers and Billy Magoulias, along with the players who departed during the season for various reasons,"

Hitting SJ, Dugan and Chad* with an "I don't recall saying good luck"
*not sure if he fully fits the category or not

Billy getting a thanks but no thanks with Woodsy and Chambers.

Haven't heard Billy being signed anywhere but no surprise we aren't gunna bother retaining him. The game has changed to potentially make him more relevant and he still can't get a run.

I’m almost entirely sure its an attitude thing with Billy Mags.

Taylor about to sign a train and trial deal with the warriors.

Gone from 900k a year to now a 50k deal.

Was just reading that myself. What a drop in pay. The huge contract he was on, and so early in his career at the time, it ruined him. Too much pressure. Needed to grow into that type of high paying contract.

His days were numbered once McInnes was signed imo, and once Bomber got the boot it seemed like Hannay was definitely not a fan.

Good luck to the guy. He has it in him to be a fg player but needs to play for the right coach. He’s not a battering ram, but can be very effective when applying a specific game plan.

Gus said Cotric going nowhere. He also said Dogs cap is spent & there'd be no more signings so...

Not fussed we missed out on Burns, whilst he would have been handy it’s debatable if he would have been a better option than Connor or even a upgrade.
He did look promising some years back he hasn’t kicked on really, he has been unlucky with injury but surely we don’t need to gamble anyone else in our squad with recent history with injury.

I’d much prefer we offer a clear opportunity for those young guys coming through, the last two seasons haven’t help with them getting sweet FA game time in the lower grades so if we need to sign a journeyman for a season to tie us over till 23 I’d be ok with.
