  1. Clearly knows how to finish. A fallow season and AC injury in the last couple of years, but he wouldn't be signing for St Mirren otherwise.
  2. Jackson worked his socks off, but didn’t strike me as particularly confident in front of goal. Our style of play didn’t help, though. Far too often he had to receive the ball with his back to goal, shake off two defenders, and try to create an opportunity - all on his own. No wonder he often ran out of steam when presented with chances. He had to work too hard to make them.
  3. As everyone else has said, really feel for Cooke. He clearly has a right good attitude, and got his head down to earn his opportunity. What a kick in the baws for the lad.
  4. Oh aye, don't get me wrong, I'm not wringing my hands over him having scored a couple of goals. He looked rank rotten when he was here, and we are well shot.
  5. I agree, though would add that at least we don't need to bloody pay them off if they are duds.
  6. That would do. Folk bemoaning the use of loan deals seem to forget that this is the market we have operated in for many years now, as have all clubs. Some have worked, while others haven't - pretty much the same scenario with players on contacts.
  7. This time last year we had enlisted half a squad of Stubbs' duff jobbers, and were debating the merits of Kenny Miller signing for us. For me, despite the glaring deficiencies in our current squad, we are still in a better position now than we were back then (albeit I am saying this with the benefit of hindsight). It was always likely to be another tough season, such is the market we are operating in. As things stand, there is still scope for us to add a sprinkling of decent additions to the squad, so let's just have a bit of patience and assume that Jim and others at the club know what is required and are busting a gut to get them in.
  8. Good interview with S. McGinn here: https://planetradio.co.uk/clyde/sport/football-news/st-mirren-skipper-mcginn-pleased-there-has-been-no-panic-in-the-transfer-market/
  9. I'm reading that we currently have a first team squad of 12 fit players. Is that correct?
  10. The way things are going, I'll be happy if anyone - literally anyone - signs.
  11. Cheers. So clearly difficult to categorise. That can be a good or a bad thing depending on how you look at it.
  12. What type of player is White - bustling target man? Penalty box striker? Good in the air?
  13. Jordan White from ICT now being rumoured. 16 goals last season, and their top scorer according to Wikipedia.
  14. Monday isn't signing day. We're saving them all up for a bumper Thursday or Friday
  15. Aye, not seeking to demonise Gilmour and Co. Just keen to ensure the account is accurate. I wouldn't have wanted to be in their shoes at that time.
  16. When they took it out to the Main Stand, about 80% supported their position.
