Tylluan Posted June 11 Author Share Posted June 11 Callum Paterson may be a wanted man He's on Barnsley's list after they got knocked back by Notts County for offering a ludicrously low amount for Langstaff. Also Hearts are expected to come knocking if, as expected, they lose Shankland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I get that sense too, I didn’t think he would be but as we’ve discussed his positives and negatives to death in here, he almost makes it impossible to ignore him. While it maybe a prerequisite for some that players should run their blood to watter, he’s the epitome of that AND the team player all in one. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradowl Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 Get ready for the meltdown on social media. Disappointed a little but I think we should be looking for better, his goalscoring record is quite poor for a midfielder. 2 goals in 77 appearances for us and he's almost 31 years of age. We probably offered him a one year deal whilst Oxford might have offered him a 3 year deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owling_Wolf Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 Whilst I completely understand the argument in favour of trying to trade up from Will, that's really knocked my duck off. Really like the lad: a great attitude whilst playing, celebrating and going the extra mile for those less fortunate. I have really enjoyed his time with us. Good luck to him, obviously: he absolutely deserves it. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a dismal comment, IMO. Why do you think it necessary? What if he didn't want out, but the offer he received left him little choice, or he was told that he wouldn't be expected to start? All common or realistic happenings in football but hardly deserving of that nastiness towards a class act. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoylandOwl Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 It’s a little gutting to see him leave in that, he had a big impact last season, his form oct - xmas was excellent, and coming back in towards the end, excellent too. That tackle at Blackburn, epitomised him. Committed, put his body on the line, for the cause. Yes we can get a better player technically, and I hope we do, but we’ll do well to get another one in that position with his heart and desire. Off the pitch, absolute role model professional. I did think he’d be more of a squad player, and that’s probably what would be right and maybe that’s what DR did, so perhaps could be why he’s left. Good luck Will, you’ll be remembered fondly 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laceups Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 All the best Will. Thanks for your time with us and the effort put in. Good luck for the remaining years of your career. If we want to kick on we need to upgrade and space needs to be made to bring them in. It’s the right time for all concerned but he will get a warm reception at S6 next season hopefully. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will agree on your last point, though more what Vaulks does off the pitch should be the norm with players not the exception. The "fuck off" wasn't aimed per se at Vaulks, its just a generic aim when players choose to leave. They are no different to any other employee leaving an organisation. Perhaps I am simply a hard nosed employer, staff come and go, some I like some I never did. But I don't bemoan their lack of loyalty or buy into their displays of it. It always makes me laugh when fans cite it, then you ask what they are up to "oh I moved from Smiths Eng as Jones were paying 50p an hour more" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrolMong Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 Vaulks has been a really good signing. Was good in League One and good last season. Don’t blame him one bit if he wants a bit more security long term, and I don’t blame us for not wanting to offer him a long term deal. We need to get our average age down and bring in athleticism. Its clearly going to be a significant midfield rebuild for next season which I am all for. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
