Buddist Monk Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Saintees claiming Willock was not what they wanted and that's why he's not back with them, while their boss mumps about how little cash he has to make any signings is cute. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read our thread, people have been saying for months we need a replacement for Chris Millar, you'll have seen yourself Willock isn't the type who'll sit deep and spray passes about, he's more about final third actions. A summer without Tommy Wright moaning about money is like a Summer without a July. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, just to clarify.. he's a player the fans and manager would happily see return to them, but because of the budget constraints you can only prioritise one position and that isn't the one Willock plays? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well yes, to a point. We've prioritised other players. We needed a CM, two wingers and a striker who could all start. We chose the two wingers and strikers ahead of Willock. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to say, it's not a verified twitter account and isn't connected to the club. While I'd be happy for there to be some substance to this, and there may be a kernel of truth to it, it's no different to the Rumours Mill on B&WA. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say it's a pretty damned accurate picture just that some of your fans don't wish to admit it! Bottom line? Brown(s), Wright, et al, have all done an excellent job with St Johnstone. I have no axe to grind here. Obviously I am of the opinion that you've been punching above your weight for some time now and a readjustment will happen and that the club to benefit from that will be us. We'll just have to wait and see about that.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll just have to wait and see about that.. Our "readjustment" was last season, when we were pretty dire and genuinely had an ageing squad, and the likes of Hibernian and Kilmarnock retook their spot in the top half. If you're expecting St Mirren to become top six regulars then you'll be disappointed. We took advantage of Hearts/Hibs/Kilmarnock and Rangers all either being out the league or weakened, I doubt that'll all happen at once again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon you'll be lucky to avoid the relegation battle. More so when Wright moves after getting annoyed at working with buttons. 44 minutes ago, RandomGuy. said: If you're expecting St Mirren to become top six regulars then you'll be disappointed.

Not recently. Anyway, you'd hardly call them a "big team". Sure they are top league regulars but don't have the spending power of the Edinburgh, Aberdeen and Glasgow clubs.

Yeah, we've heard that top paragraph for the past three/four seasons, I'm sure we'll survive. And Kilmarnock were under the "weakened" tag, second half of last season their form was league challenging, and they've not lost anyone of genuine note, Mulumbu aside. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
