I presume he meant for the last 2 weeks only

Nothing too inspiring in there. I guess it’s difficult to get too excited about dropping to L2.

With regards to the players in negotiation, I’d give them a call over the weekend, get them in Monday for a one on one with Kenny and tell them they can let us know on Tuesday if they’re in or out.

The new boss is in, no need to piss about anymore.

Talks very open and believes that we can push for the top of the division

Must admit he doesn’t strike me as inspirational but you can’t argue with his record.

That’s not how these things work. According to Matt Porter a player has 28 days whether to accept or decline a contract from when offered

You are 100% correct RedDwarf. There are lots on here, particularly the younger element, who think they know it all, but it's older folks, who have loved and lived a long time, that know the most.
Well done for putting that whippet snapper in his place

Best qualified I said.
He didn’t strike me as inspirational.
I hope he shows more passion on the training pitch.

The players in question were offered new deals on 11th may, so if you include the day they were told of the offer, leaves 17 days to make their minds up one way or the other.

Sure.

Where is this info coming from?

We’d have to be idiotic to leave it that late.

11 May 2021 — Amongst the players released include many of the 2018-19 National ... Offered New Deals ... Academy Players – Offered Professional Deal.

What happens if Kenny Jackett doesn’t agree with offering new contracts to Vigs, DJ , Wilko etc ??
And if he wants to keep some of the released players.........I’m assuming Jobi and ML made these decisions

Cheers. That must be the last day they can offer officially. They would have known the terms a long time before that

Well being as that information was made official by the club on 11th May 2021, I can only presume that the 28 days spoken of would be starting from that very same day of 11th May 2021.

What a load of ageist claptrap.

Some of the most tedious and nonsensical football related b*llocks I’ve ever heard has come from the wrinkly mouths of old duffers.
