Good news for City fans today as it was announced that Brian Deane (35) and Billy McKinlay (34) have decided to stay with us this season and accept an extra year's contract.

Micky Adams, speaking on the official site, said:

"Both of them did a great job for us last season and we still believe that they've got something to offer at this level.

"We are all too aware that we have a small squad and therefore we need everyone on board.

"We need to strengthen the squad, not reduce it."

McKinlay and Deane join Paul Dickov, Matthew Heath and Tommy Wright who have already agreed new deals.

Gerry Taggart hasn't decided what he's doing yet although he did say at the end of last season he'd like to stay.

Matt Jones is training with F"£$%^.
