Title: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: News Monkey on Monday, May 7, 2012, 17:00:04 Kennedy targets new deal
CALLUM Kennedy expects to sit down with the Swindon Town hierarchy to discuss his future with the club this week, and the left-back is desperate to secure himself a new deal at the County Ground. http://www.thisisswindontownfc.co.uk/news/headlines/9692324.Kennedy_targets_new_deal/?ref=rss Title: Re: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: No Longer Posh Red on Monday, May 7, 2012, 17:08:00 If, as I hope, that we sign McEveley he will be first choice at left back.
That would mean that either Kennedy or Cibbo would be the back-up. Interesting that Cibbo wasn't at the CG yesterday and now we get this story. Wonder if it's a coincidence? Title: Re: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: Swindon Please Win on Monday, May 7, 2012, 17:08:44 Cibo has quite a nasty injury I heard.
Title: Re: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: Gnasher on Monday, May 7, 2012, 17:12:03 I'd be very surprised if he's still here next season, even as a squad player.
Title: Re: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: bigbobjoylove on Monday, May 7, 2012, 17:15:59 We dont need 3 left-backs so if Mc is signing we dont need Kennedy.
I'd rather we kept Kennedy as understudy but some of the contracts are a pain. Easy to say in hindsight but too many 2 year deals given out last summer. Stuck with a lot of dross. Title: Re: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: DV on Monday, May 7, 2012, 17:20:46 Cibbo wont play again for a long time.
We'll need a third left back. Title: Re: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: pericarp on Monday, May 7, 2012, 17:22:33 What exactly happened to Cibo? ???
Title: Re: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: Arriba on Monday, May 7, 2012, 17:25:01 Not bothered to be honest if he stays or goes. Has progressed but not enough to be a major player. Wages won't be high but i think the board aint afraid to splash the cash.
Title: Re: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: DRS on Monday, May 7, 2012, 17:31:22 Think he will stay as cheap and adequate cover.As for the dross players they really are not on massive money i imagaine
Title: Re: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: Processed Beats on Monday, May 7, 2012, 19:16:33 Not good enough imo.
Title: Re: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: phelpsieboy on Monday, May 7, 2012, 19:18:08 As much as I like Kennedy, Cibo is a better option in my opinion.
Title: Re: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: Uncletrunx on Monday, May 7, 2012, 20:28:45 The big "if" here has to be Cibo's injury.
If he's going to be injured into next season, Kennedy might well be a good option as cover. However, if Cibo is going to be fit for the start of the season, do we need double cover? Title: Re: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: tans on Monday, May 7, 2012, 20:30:52 Am i the only one that thinks that kennedy isnt that bad?
I'd keep for another year Title: Re: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: DRS on Monday, May 7, 2012, 20:38:46 Looking at his injury record i wouldn't want to risk cibo as our only cover tbh.
Title: Re: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: Batch on Monday, May 7, 2012, 20:39:05 Kennedy was a bit of a mixed bag for me. Looked very good against Huddersfield, less good in other games.
If he was 19-20 I think we'd keep him. At 23 its less clear cut. Good point from DRS though. Title: Re: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: chalkies_shorts on Monday, May 7, 2012, 20:39:46 Am i the only one that thinks that kennedy isnt that bad? There's 2 of us. I'd keep him for another year. I'd keep for another year Title: Re: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: Arriba on Monday, May 7, 2012, 20:41:46 I think he's decent(great delivery at times) but not sure he's good enough for the next level
Title: Re: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: LucienSanchez on Monday, May 7, 2012, 20:47:14 Decent enough, cheap backup... I'd keep him, but if McEveley got a proper long term injury I'd dip into the loan market
Title: Re: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: otanswell on Monday, May 7, 2012, 20:54:37 Am i the only one that thinks that kennedy isnt that bad? I'd keep for another year For once me and you agree on something Title: Re: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: STFCFORLIFE on Monday, May 7, 2012, 21:05:40 Id release him and Cibbochi and get Ridehalgh.
Title: Re: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: wiggy on Monday, May 7, 2012, 21:12:12 Id release him and Cibbochi and get Ridehalgh. Nice thought but Ridehalgh isn't going to come just to be a back up. Kennedy would do just fine. Title: Re: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: Cibocchi_Is_God on Monday, May 7, 2012, 21:23:44 Not entirely convinced by Kennedy if i'm honest. He seems to be very average most of the time with a few very good performances to make you think that something is there. He has put in some brilliant performances such as Huddersfield at home & some woeful one's, Crewe away springs to mind. I want him to be good, but a distinctly average L2 left-back in my opinion, weak and constantly hoofs the ball and to be honest I cant really think of any one area he excels in.
Not knocking the guy totally, fair play to him for coming through the system and playing a fair few games, but IMO is the worst of our three left backs and would struggle with the step up. Not against having him as back up though as long as he remains on his current wages, or relatively low wages. Title: Re: Adver News: Kennedy targets new deal Post by: Coca Fola on Monday, May 7, 2012, 22:11:46 Keep all 3 and sign Ridehalgh too, perhaps sign Jamie Vincent for cover just in case all 4 get injured. You can never have too many left backs.
