Wouldn't rush into a new deal for Sinclair. Will be 33 by end of contract so would be better to see what shape he is in then.

Best finisher at the club and one who is capable to create something from nothing. No brainer for me.

Yes he might be poor at times but he pops up with moments of real quality. Also with our budget who would we get that is better.

Probably an impact sub 2022 but still definitely worth having in the squad unless he drops off a lot by then.

Yeah, I thought we were a bit quick in sorting out a deal for Huntington. I like the lad a lot, but when you need to keep your squad down to 25 there’s no room for sentimentality. With regards SVDB he looks to be good cover for CB and RB and the way he’s going could quite easily nail down that right back slot.

But were pne and have a good reputation for looking after our players. Its whybso many ex pros always speak well of pne. I think the club and fans alike would love to see hunts get a testimonial whether he's in the squad or not 👍

Impact sub?
Unless we recruit our wide attacking options won't be exactly great.Can't see Gordon being back on loan.
Maguire?
Harrop?
DJ/Browne /Riis if you're shoehorning.
Barky/Potts unless they go in summer .Even if they stay Potts is showing he's better in the middle.
No brainer for me Sinclair gets an extension.

I did mean by 22/23 in fairness. A 33/34 year old with a lot of miles on the clock is unlikely to be a starter week in week out for many Championship teams. I'd imagine he will be a sub more regularly by then, perhaps he'll prove me wrong.

However I was agreeing with your ultimate point, he gets a new deal, even if his role is beginning to reduce.

With regards the players we brought in in January.

Wiseman: This lad is quality and will be a top player for years to come. I’m thrilled we got him and I agree with others that he looks ideal captain material. I think Pearson has jumped ship too soon as I think Pearson with Wiseman further forward would have been huge.

Sinclair is one I would understand them delaying and assessing the situation over the summer.

He’s clearly a big earner for the club and at his age it’s worth taking our time over rather than tying ourselves in early.

He will be here next season anyway as he will probably see out his contract here regardless of any extension. And yes we will need to sign a winger this summer if and when Gordon goes back.

I get the sentimentality of a testimonial but should people earning 3 or 4 hundred quid a week really be asked to top up players pension pots who've been earning 10k a week. If he said he was donating all the money to charity then fair enough.

I think the generally 'done' thing now if for the money to go to a charity. Although testimonials are less common these days as players move around more than they used to.

Not Hunts, he stays at the back and heads/twats away anything that comes near him.

Thats their choice though isn't it ?
 
Hunts is a legend people, let's not forget his Wembley goal and the pride he always shows the shirt, he knows he is not going to start every week and is now a bit part player, but name me one current PNE player who gives more than Hunts when he crosses that white line!! As I said LEGEND, never gonna set the world alight or play it out from the back, his scope is half way line clearence or row z but when you know that he has those limitations you just have to love him if only for his commitment, effort and love of PNE!! Here endeth the sermon!! Lol 🤣🤣
