Even better than my 3 for 2 Christmas sock deal I got!

Superb news that he'll be here for the future. Is he even underrated anymore? I think everyone knows how important he is for the way we play and he's arguably improved this season too.

 

 

This is how Notts should be handling contracts, we're performing well and morale is probably at the highest it has been within the squad for years. At these points, you get your best players nailed down with good contract lengths.

Yes, not all players will agree to extend their stay but when you leave things off, they're bound to be tempted elsewhere.

If we accept that we might only get a few years out of a player, without selling the club's ambition to players, then I just feel it shows a major lack in that department. Yes, Notts extended Cal Roberts deal when he was here, but more players haven't - with that common "I'm focusing on my game and performances right now." Personally, when I read or hear this, I assume the players have already decided to leave.

Well done Notts for extending Matty Palmer's stay! He's a brilliant asset and someone we can further shape the squad around.

matt palmer extending his stay is a positive bit of news, technically hes solid at this level and will only grow in his importance as we push to return to the football league.
