Believe me, age and old injuries eventually catches up with us all.

Quinny has played for years with ankle issues, towards the end of last season he picked up a persistent hip injury and was only half the player.

If finance allows, I'd love to see him join the coaching staff etc.

[Sneag]

Good luck to him in whatever he decides to do, but he let us down big time more than once last season with his ridiculous on field tantrums.

[Staghammer]

It was quite obvious to me personally speaking that the rigors and demands of a season where fixtures piled up towards the back end of the season took its toll on his performances. Can a player at his age now meet that demand again plus contribute in a constant and consistent way to the side, only the man himself can answer that

[Oladamber66]

Dont agree with letting us down.... he’s a player with passion and gives us 100% as well as having bags of experience and
a Motivator on the pitch... but age I'm afraid is not on his side ... i think he might have another season in him Hopefully!?

6 game ban for being over passionate did let us down

[1970Stag]

My worry is he's holding out for a 2 year contract which will leave us saddled with another player past his prime.
There are better younger cheaper faster players out there.
For such an experienced player, his ill discipline costs us points last season, as it did throughout the team.

[Oladamber66]

Ok fair enough ..but over zealous and poor decisions from refs don't help ... but he did more good than bad over the season

Don’t see why that would be the case, he signed a one year deal last summer.

Because we've been handing out much longer term contracts since then?

Don't believe that this is the case, I was told by a player that earlier in the season he was considering retirement at the end of the season regardless of what happened, ie promotion.

My only thoughts are that because of the way it all ended at Wembley he may stay another season, if he still feels like he can contribute in rotation with the likes of boateng.

Therefore I believe he is probably still in discussions with his family as to whether to retire or give it one more go.

Regardless of what happens he has been a great addition and I wish him well.

[Stag95]

Hope he stays, he’s been very good for us. However there is a hotheaded side to him that I can’t imagine Clough is a fan of.

Not to players of his age we haven’t.

[oldweststander]

There isn't great deal of sentiment in football.

The most Quinny could expect is a one year deal, as Perch has accepted, injuries add a different dimension.

[cassellswasmagic]

Milner of Mansfield!!! Give him another year imo. It’s more than just his ability, it’s his presence on and off the pitch.

[CassellsCap]

Hope we keep him another year. Quality player that can play a big part even if only in 30 min spells. On a tough night away in middle of winter his football brain can change a game with one pass... it’s a long season and even ten games from quinny can give us that extra experience when needed.

[stag324]

How many games did we win when he wasn’t playing?

We need him and Macca together down the left

[BH_Stag]

I hope he signs on for another year, but don’t want us to feel compelled to start him every week without fail. We have plenty of good options in midfield, and you could see it was starting to catch up with Quinn towards the back end of the season after playing nearly every game when available.

If we were more selective for his games I’m sure we could get some top performances out of him again.

[James]

Listened to an interview with Mark Bonner talking about Wes Hoolahan at Cambridge.

He talked of the need of finding the balance between him being their best player, and him not being able to play every week. Think we've got to do that with Quinn. He's probably, ability wise, our best player and definitely worth his place in the squad. He can't play every week as he did last year through injuries etc. Think that's why we've signed Boateng and maybe looking at others to cover when he's not there as we definitely had a dip in performance level when Quinn didn't play (especially with McLaughlin).

A lot of recency bias going on this thread with Quinn, he was our best player for a good third of the season. He's still got loads to offer.

The question is, does he beleive he can still offer it?

We can say what we like but at the end of the day it is his body and his family.

[geoffhill]

He will make a decision soon I expect.If he signs for another year he won't expect to play every game and probably won't be fit enough.I like him in the team for his experience and heart.Very similar to Jamma but a far better player.

[broomo]

Calm down lads and lasses.

Monday.

[Sedgwick]

Forgot about the 5 subs rule.

Keep him, absolutely being able to bring him on/off and still having subs, keeping Quinn fresh as possible for longer will really help us.

Definitely, no doubt about it we are a better side when he plays.
