Mr Positive, sometimes. Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 (edited) Injury prone player with an ankle problems (4 ankle injuries last season alone) who simply could not stay fit whatsoever. Sounds about perfect for a Saints signing then. Again another player agewise past his best.

The only on under 30 is McCann, who won't be here long. 3 minutes ago, Mr Positive, sometimes. said: Injury prone player with an ankle problems (4 ankle injuries last season alone) who simply could not stay for whatsoever.

Radford Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 My concern with our transfer business is that it isn't progressing the club. The loans will be gone in the summer and Conway and Bryson, the most you are doing is milking the last little bit out of them. So a year down the line you still have the same gaps you looked to address this summer, plus any new ones. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With little or no current income and looking likely to stay that way for the foreseeable as a club known to very risk adverse it's somewhat expected from the club Cheaper loans and short term fixes to tide us over until the financial outlook improves. I can't see us willing to offer anything more than a single year deal nor the level of the wages we were offering this time last year which results in us shopping from the players "with something to prove" list again.

akuram Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Just need a big unit in the middle to win headers to knock down in the box and we will be ok. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Johnstone on social media in a nutshell. It'll probably never tweet again. That's pretty insane and inexcusable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Positive, sometimes. Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Looking unlikely but if McCann was to leave or have some time out the team injured. Midfield three of Bryson, Muzz & Liam. Pace galore. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute prime example of what goes on constantly at Saints and when the subject is brought up with the club it's met with mostly blunt denial. My personal favourite was going up to get a half season ticket a week before Christmas few seasons ago for a "gift". Walked into the ticket office and was told despite there being 3 staff members sitting in there. "Sorry none of us know how to do season tickets, can you come back another day?" One of them was Roddy Grant though to be fair so that's no surprise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally didn't as was unable to but someone else did on my behalf, so effectively yes. I used to sit on a fans forum thing which one of the board members who helped chair those meetings was one of them sitting in the office at the time. When I questioned it later it was met with "it's not really an issue". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can understand why they're doing this, but its a massive problem for further down the line. Even if we sign Bryson none of our current midfielders should be starting in 2 years (McCann should be sold for money). For a club who've built success on squad consistency, that's not great.

Theres one or two who, if you look through their timelines, have gone from fairly passionate football guys to just posting stuff like this... You've probably already clocked this but the boy I was talking about (Dougie Wright) did an in depth interview with Joel on The Terrace last week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
