squeezeboxson Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Decent signing that and can only agree with others above. Very happy to see him get a big move (in relation to the rest of his career). We signed him from a Uni team and he just strolled through every Match. I would say from what I seen over his years with Alloa and Livi, he was always improving. Think he is a much better option than Webster actually... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
optimistic Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Also very good at covering the back line, when his fellow defender's have pushed forward, and likes to chip in with a goal or two, excellent player, good luck to him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergie's no1 fan Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Sounds like the kind of defender we were hoping Cheesy would become. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunning1874 Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Pretty much the only defender Livingston had worthy of the name this season. Solid Championship player, good signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djchapsticks Posted June 2, 2016 Author Share Posted June 2, 2016 We're away to Hamilton and Livi in the cup instead of Edinburgh City and Ayr. Haud me back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waspie Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Not much pace but otherwise an excellent defender. Reads the game well, strong in the air, puts himself on the line when required and a real leader. He made the decision to go full-time last summer but I think at 29 top flight clubs felt he was too old to get a chance at that level. A bit younger and it would have been different. Was a shame that after turning down ft a few times down the years then taking the plunge, that he landed at Livingston. Great for him to now get an opportunity at a proper ft club. Good luck to him.

ulysses Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Rae hopeful of another signing next week, with a deal agreed in principle. We're also looking for a left sided player, another keeper, and some more strikers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djchapsticks Posted June 2, 2016 Author Share Posted June 2, 2016 Another 5 signings expected according to Rae. One of whom will be arriving next week as long as we're not beaten to the punch. I'm assuming he'll be a quite important and higher earning one as Rae says that completion of the deal will clear the way for 3 or 4 more to follow. Smaller squad but with higher quality is what he says he's going for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomas Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 We now appear to have signed two players in Hutton and Gordon that haven't been absolutely slated by every other fan, this is giving me an unnerving confidence for the season already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Parr Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Every time I look it seems St Mirren have signed some big b*****d or another. A fair enough approach given they came across a little wet behind the ears last term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthBank Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Quinn, Hutton, Gordon, Sutton - all over six feet. Only Clarkson is under that height at 5ft 10in. Makes a change from the squad of midgets we had last season. Edit to Add: And Naismith, Baird and Webster are all over six feet - the tallest squad in the League?

Coventry Saint Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Anyone know if/when the Sutton rumour is going to be confirmed? I'd love to see it happen, he'd be great at this level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glenburn bud Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Anyone know if/when the Sutton rumour is going to be confirmed? I'd love to see it happen, he'd be great at this level. It seems that once he's negotiated a severance package with St Johnstone then a deal can be done. Some speculation that it's note over the line as of yet.

Coventry Saint Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 For Div's sake it had better get over the line. He's just waiting on the Argentinian takeover to complete before signing on the dotted line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
