Migz to stay?

[Dazzza]

Hope so, thought he was one that was heading for the exit door.

STEFANI Miglioranzi insists he wants to retain the tag of Town's longest serving player and fight to win favour once again.

The midfielder has been offered another year at the County Ground and would like to extend that by a further 12 months, based on appearances.

That is still for further discussion but the New Yorker says this is where he wants to be.

The last month has been tough for the 28-year-old, the midfielder finding himself on the sidelines as the survival scrap hots up.

For a man who has been a regular' for most of his four seasons at the club, it's not easy to deal with.

Not that Miglioranzi is a prima donna who takes the view that he is above being dropped.

No player is happy to be out of the team but the former Portsmouth man is both philosophical and honest.

He said: "I haven't played well enough to be a mainstay in the team.

"I'm kind of disappointed in myself for that.

"I want to be part of the fight but sometimes you have to take it in your stride.

"It's a tough position to be in, I'm not used to it and as I said, you have to get on with it.

"Fortunately I've had some good people behind me to get my head straight and point me in the right direction when I've needed it."

And there is no question of him now looking for the exit door.

He said: "I do want to stay.

"From my understanding and a contract offer having been made they (the club) want me to be here so there should be no problem.

"I had the letter from the club, pretty much around the same time as the other lads.

"My agent talked to them about tweaking it (the offer) a little bit.

"The money they offered was fine, it was just an issue of an extra year if I made a certain number of appearance, stuff like that.

"I've left my agent to it so I can concentrate on the football.

"I haven't heard anything back."

At least the midfielder can count his blessings on the injury front this year.

He said: "Fortunately, I've remained fit for the majority of the season.

"I had an ankle injury at the beginning of the year but it's been clear going apart from that."

Deputy chairman Mark Devlin said yesterday: "Negotiations continue with a number of players on the contracts front and I'm due to meet for further discussions with their representatives next week."

when on song is a great player,unfortunatly to rare an occasion recently.not bothered either way if he stays or goes

[yeo]

Wish he'd fuck off personally.

dead wood.

[PHIL!!!!]

Really hope he does stay as he is an awesome player when on form, and yes it has been rare recently, but i'm confident he will once again find his form.
Stick him at centre back with Ifil, i reckon, as he played some of the best football we have seen from any centre back this season, when  he played there not so long ago, this season.

[Arriba]

ifil is poo,wish he'd leave frankly

I think he used to play sweeper for Pompey so it's a good shout.

Like to see him get a few games there as when he has he was quite good a season or so ago.

Defo one to keep, one of our best players

Its a position he has played before, he played sweeper when we played Pompey a few pre-seasons back....Turbo scored a stunner.

Plus he played centre back at Rotherham (was fucking awesome, didnt get any credit because Evans was even more awesome) and the latter stages of Yeovil....goals conceded.....0

[Spud]

On his day he's as good as anyone in this division but unfortunately he has one good game and 3 shit games.

[Duncan_Shearer]

He is shit and should fuck off.

[FlashGordon]

Cant believe what some people are saying, surely the people saying the negative comments are just provoking a reaction?

This season hasnt been his best, agreed but when he is at his best he is awesome almost untouchable, again agreed that he doesnt have enough of these games but for one of our best players to be called shit is bit stupid i think.

Even tho he hasnt had enough good games this season wud def say worth the risk of having him here next season!

[yeo]

Nope we cant afford passengers next year.

[Bennett]

i think he has maybe had hid day. i'm terrified at who will end up in a town shirt next year. i think iffy must be to offer pook a new contract  

[sonicyouth]

keep up bennett, pook's already signed.

[Bennett]

i didn't say if he's accepted it did i? he offered him one and the fucking alkie accepted. so ner
