DJs Contract.

Riddler waiting to see what money is left in the kitty after signing all the new players. Also his wage will be a target for agents to try and get their clients. Time before Christmas to deal with this

As others have said we can only guess if anything has been mentioned behind closed doors but if not we need to be dealing with this now.

We all know what happened in the past when players are entering the final 12 months of their deal.

What exactly is that supposed to mean? All players have off days but let's face it DJ is genuinely 'on it' more often than not. Add the points made in the OP and it's a no brainer from me to extend his contract.

Doesn't just have off days. There are games where he goes missing. All depends on what is asked of him and how the team set up to play. .

I think what he's alluding to is inconsistency. I've been critical of him as he drives me mad some games.

That said I would absolutely offer him a new contract although I would guess he's already one of the top earners & will probably want an increase on that. Guess it depends how far the Club are willing to go.

Thanks couldn't have put it better. Can proof read all my post please 🙂
 
I guess whatever the situation PNE will have its limits and if he wants to exceed them what happens then?

It also depends on if he actually wants to stay and/or if anyone makes an offer for him.

I could be wrong but did he not want to move on last time (Rangers?)

I don’t doubt the club will want to keep him, lets hope he wants to stay.

Id guess DJ is thinking more along the lines of a 3 year contract. Id offer that too.

A 3 year extension? So effectively 4 years on new money? I'm sure he'd snap that up. I'd say a 2 year extension (3 years on new money) would be the ideal position for club and maybe player.

It does make me laugh though, years back we were all screaming about needing more creativity in midfield yet when DJ tries to make killer passes or passes that would result in goals (usually in tight situations) and it doesn't come off he gets hammered for it.

Him and Whiteman should be in the midfield and fit the others around them.
 
A new deal (extension of 2 years plus his current 1 year remaining as I mentioned in my OP) would take him up to the summer of 2025 and with that, 10 years and a well deserved testimonial.

Talking of which, any news on Hunts Testimonial?

Stuff usually leaks out (talks ongoing/not ongoing) but we have heard nothing either way.

Seems a bit odd.

Hope you're right of course! 👍 🙏

I hope I'm right as well mate. We've made this mistake before you'd hope we'd have learnt from it.

Can't exactly remember but when him and Browne signed their new deals everyone was convinced that they were going to be leaving and then it just happened. I just can't see Ryan Lowe not wanting to keep him.
 
We may as well retread the same DJ arguments. Yes, great ability when he’s on song, yes, he can sometimes go missing for weeks or months at a time. On balance we should probably be looking to extend his contract as I feel we’re probably better off with him than not.

Likely he’ll be looking for a decent signing on fee and payday so he won’t come cheap - difficult decisions will have to be made, again!
