I would be gutted if he left.
He wasn't expected to get in to the first team and could easily have been a fadeing mid-season signing that wasn't deemed worth hanging on to at seasons end.
Willie Bruton and Vinny Sullivan are prime examples and they (well the latter anyway) are established premier players.
Leon has developed with every game imo.
He's definitely more of a right winger (something we need) and has a good attitude owing to a spell messing around with no name teams whilst going to college etc.
He is among a group of players who've been offered standard renewals (e30 extra basic and considerably improved bonuses).
However, the others had existing properly negotiated CCFC deals. The likes of Softic, Kelly and Carroll were happy to retain a salary slightly improved in full-time ball.
McSweeneys initial contract was probably like a long-term paid trial to see if he was up to full-time professional standard.
Thus, offering the generic minor pay-rise is a bit lousy in his case.
He's right to want a further improvement and he could get it elsewhere.
