We just don't do boring transfer windows, do we? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I hope Kearney is battering Lampard's door down as we speak. *If Jack Ross is still at Sunderland, I bet they'd go in for him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't want to spoil those memories and I'm not sure he's the sorta player OK will be looking for. 7 hours ago, Hendo said: Agreed, since leaving us he's been at more clubs than Leigh Griffiths on a night out. Good player but always thought his attitude could be better. 5 hours ago, flyingscot said: He's not really set the heather on fire at any club since leaving. Think we got the best of him! Hard to agree. He's been pretty much a standard goal in every 3 games since leaving us. Including at Hearts. He's definitely be a fantastic signing for a club of our stature. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think you can add in the very real possibility of Tansey throwing in the towel as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djchapsticks Posted June 3, 2019 Author Share Posted June 3, 2019 Looking at what is left in positional terms: That's 15 remaining. Kellermann and Heaton will surely not be here by start of the season and Tansey will be lucky if he kicks a ball again apparently. That would leave us with 12 (on basis that Gary Mac and Muzek stay). So from that 12, we'd add another 8 - 10 in close season to get to that magic number of 21-22. For me, we definitely need: 1 x Backup Goalie 1 x RB for cover (Hodson would be ideal due to versatility on both sides and can play in midfield if needed) 1 or 2 x CB 1 x CM (attacking) 1 x RM 1 x LM 2 x CF 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Already seen Burton Albion linked with him but he should be going to a top League One club or even someone in the bottom part of the Championship. Out of our range these days sadly. Shows how much has changed at the club that Carey and Isma left six years ago yet there's sod all people left at the club from their time here - both on the playing and non-playing side. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kennysmassiveego Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Is Tony back on the drugs ? I had a conversation with Brian Caldwell once who said that Tony “ doesn’t live in the real world “ when it comes to St Mirren . As a Killie supporter whose fans were , jokingly right enough , talking about winning the league last year , I understand hyperbole , but this is embarrassing surely ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fitzy is God. I would understand if he said something like this but the comment in the article quote is ‘This club is a top-four, at the worst, top-six club.’ History shows this doesn’t exactly happen often. It also puts unneeded pressure on the coaches, players and him as well. Edited June 7, 2019 by gannonball 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awful argument from the guy. All hail Stubbsy x None of our fans take Tony seriously. Personally I would rather have a chief executive who is a realist. We wont have a budget to compete for a top six place. Our manager might pull off a great achievement but that's an outside chance not one you would put on at the bookies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
