I think you might safely remove Guy Finkler from the list by now
So there could be a pretty big clean out next season? Seems like all the players we'd want to hang on to are expiring, and then all of the players we'd want to get rid of have 2 year deals still!
Bugger meant to take him out but did get Vidosic. Waiting to see if we lose Lowry, Watson and Abbas

I don't know, that Burns guy looks alright.

Except for him. AK, Krishna, Paracki, Ljujic all on one year deals..
Doyle and Fox are also worth holding onto.
Does anyone think we could lose AK?? One of the league's top scorers playing for the bottom ranked team on a one year deal... Anyone have any inside information on how he's enjoying his Wellington experience?
Goal are reporting that the club are trying to get rid of Abbas, Lowrey, Watson and Rossi. Possibly might decide to terminate Watson, etc contracts early?

I don't believe he's posted any TV listings on Trademe yet.
We've got his mate here now so he might feel like staying. Also seems to be a fan of the coach.

He is a real star for us, and people recognise him on the street in Welly.
He would be just another face in the crowd if he turned for that revolving door, Melbourne City.
Hopefully after the last few years of the life of a football nomad he'll want to stay somewhere for a couple of seasons and be settled.

And Wellington has better pinot and craft beer than Vilnius
Vilnius is a beautiful city. All the baltic country capitals are great.

I rate Fox but his constant injury issues are very worrying.

That is very true. I have a soft spot for both Riga and Tallinn, seen them before and after 1991.
Yeah, we seriously thought about buying an apartment in Riga after the financial crisis where they more than halved in price. I was working from home at that point and we could have spent our winters in Europe hanging out at the beach in Jurmala, etc. And also got a good return renting it to all the tourists when we weren't there.
But then the company I worked for started to struggle and I thought it might be prudent to find a corporate pleb job in town.
3 players (one of them must be a overseas player.) need to be released at the end of the season.

Haven't been watching too much Weenix, only highlights each week - jesus Singh is a class above the rest. Is there a possibility of any of those guys getting pro deals with us? And if so, who?

I hope Ollie White sticks with it and keeps improving, just so he can be called up to the NZ U23's one day.

McGarry has a pro contract, for a few more months anyway.
Along with Whyte, Willem Ebbinge and Liberato Cacace are probably the highest rated of the lot that were at last year's U-17 WC.

Cheers guys, I remember in the games that I watched Whyte and Wood really stood out for me. Cacace was great at the World Cup I thought

Might need to add Ollie Whyte to this list

He's so good, they named a team after him.
#WGTN have opened talks to extend Roy Krishna’s contract and ward off attention from other clubs.

Yes please. I hope Roy retires at the Nix (assuming we do not fold)
He deserves as big wages as he wants, no other player gives more and tries as hard. Nothing but love for Roy, he's in the same tier as Ifill in terms of club-legend status, so lets treat him like one
So for all those that say he is unhappy and looking to leave, what do you have to say now?
How does the club opening contract talks disprove that theory?

As an exercise, if you were [an A League club] looking to sign an overseas player - would you prefer Roy over someone coming from the lower reaches of the English game or from one of the minor leagues in Europe?

Roy should be our highest paid player or at least in the top tier
