Dillon Looking For Local Players

Last updated : 04 February 2010 By Charlie Oliver

Aldershot News reporter Charlie Oliver has reported that Shots manager Kevin Dillon has offered new contracts to Kirk Hudson, Louie Soares, Scott Donnelly and Andy Sandell and that discussions have been started with Danny Hylton’s agent and talks will be opened with Anthony Charles and Chris Blackburn, later in the season.

While the Shots boss does not expect many deals to be signed or rejected soon; he suspects players will wait to see how far they can take the side this season.

“It’s all in the players’ hands,” warned Dillon. “A number of other players, who will be out of contract at their clubs come the summer, have contacted me to say they would like to play under me at Aldershot. So, it’s down to the current players to do well.”

The report also states that Dillon will insist that from next season his players live in a radius from Aldershot ensuring that training is never missed. “A professional football game is a major event,” said Dillon. “Players have got to understand that.

"They must be fully prepared, work hard every day and never miss training. I could have taken any of them, apart from the back four, off at half-time against Grimsby, they had been that poor. I will not allow players to rest on their laurels.”
