Craigieboy86 Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 While preparation for the competitive games continues, so does recruitment for the challenges ahead. Five players have already arrived at Rugby Park this summer, and McInnes hopes to pretty much double that before the window closes and thinks the next few weeks could see fresh additions. “Probably still at least another four, maybe five,” he said. “We still need more speed, more creativity and better options at the top end of the pitch. “But we are working hard to try to make that happen. “We are trying to be really specific about the positions we are looking for and the profile of player and will try to wait as long as we can. “It is starting to get a bit busier this week, English clubs are starting to return back as well and I think there will be more players available over the next two or three weeks.” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cmac1869 Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 St Mirren seem to have a very reactive support, they have wee personal beefs with Motherwell/ Hearts and now Kilmarnock. Apart from all those clubs being bigger than them and more successful. St Mirren play a stunning role as the bridesmaid to the Top Six. Even out doing themselves in the last game of the season. They took a few of our players who got us relegated for first time in nearly 30 years and they think they are now big time. I don't mind St Mirren as a club and as relatively close by neighbours within the Prem id like us to have a bit more of a rivalry because after humping Black and White shite in Ayr last season we need a bridesmaid to fill that void. We are certainly not perfect as a squad but have some players who are good for this league. We will likely add another 5/6 starting quality in next month and we will see where we go. Many teams go down and struggle to come back up first time of asking, Just ask yourselves, Rangers, Hibs, Dundee United. Looking forward to a trip to Paisley soon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We won't make a better signing on or off the pitch this summer. Delighted he's back and involved with the club as is everyone on our forums. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derry Alli Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Has he retired then? I'd guess he'd have had a few good offers so it seems quite sudden to go from "I still have a burning desire to play" to "right, that is it I'm done." In just about 5 weeks? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy_K_97 Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Very pleased to have him back - you couldn't get a much better professional to get good habits on and off the park instilled into the youths. Rugby Park is a better place for having him around. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
