Players under contract

I saw on HTFCs Facebook page that quite a few managers and scouts were expected last night. This got me wondering if we have any players on a contract so we would get some kind of fee if they did move. I believe Ashmore and Evans already turned down moves which tells me they aren't. What about the likes of Gibson or Yates?

I'm fairly sure Gibson and Robbie Bunn are.

I understand (and may be completely wrong!) that we have about half a dozen players on contract. Who they are though, I have no idea!

Apart from Gibson- he’s under contract because he scored about twenty goals pre-season and Paul Smith locked him in a room with Snapper until he signed one.

Good spot! I did think Jamie Lucas would be one!

'Did' or 'Didn't'?

I actually did. He seemed to be the big signing in the summer, and was probably earmarked to be the main striker.

When Monty came in slightly later, even Paul hinted that he was a bit of a risk and there were comments about his commitment etc. But that has been a risk that definitely paid off.

It’s hard to know what you’re getting sometimes- a feeling I know well after buying a Scotch Pie at Corby for £2.50.

JC? Are there any others Liverpool are likely to smash the British transfer record for?

I stood in the back of the queue longer than I saw the first half of the match. The catering was appalling for what was a healthy but not huge crowd.
