EdinburghLivi Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Sibbald to Dundee United according to Daily Record. Surprised they went for him after his fitness issues last season but think he is better than a lot of their midfield options. Good move for him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not very saintsible at all really. St Mirren would love a top 6 finish, we've had 2 since coming back up, something they can only dream of. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 (edited) The loaned players really cluttered up the squad last season and likely took playing minutes away from Sibbald at times. Sibbald then left us due to lack of playing time. Soto, Chukwuemeka, Lewis and Williamson contributed very little. While Bailey was great, a direct result of accomodating him was Mullin wasting a season in the tier below and the afore-mentioned Sibbald issue. I'm glad loan signings aren't being prioritised again this summer. Edited July 11, 2022 by FreedomFarter 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad loan signings aren't being prioritised again this summer. As much as I'd agree with the idea that loan players can disrupt the squads, Sibbald's lack of game time last year probably came down to his own fitness and the arrival of Shinnie. Given how little Chuwuemeka and Soto contributed, we'd have been as well recalling/keeping Hamilton and Mullin with Nouble back in January Can't say I'd be too upset at Stryjek leaving and I don't think having McCrorie/Stryjek rotation situation again would help any CB pairing. He's a decent lower half Premiership keeper, however it's clear he won't coach the mistakes out his game Edited July 11, 2022 by The Wrong Car 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thruthenight Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 I got the impression that Sibbald really struggled to get back to his best after a nasty bout of covid. A fully fit Sibbald is a starter for us IMO, but it's been more than a year since he was fit. Calculated risk for United if they sign him, but probably worth it as there's a quality player in there. Sibbald always came across as a good guy, hope it works out for him. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad loan signings aren't being prioritised again this summer. As I recall there was the suggestion that we got players like Ben Williamson on the proviso of guaranteed playing time. I suppose a parent club has the right to expect that if they're continuing to pay 100% of the loaned players wages but shoehorning players like Williamson straight into the team ahead of the likes of Jacobs; Mullen; McMillan and Sibbald did have a negative effect on the team as a whole IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIVIFOREVER Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 (edited) Aye Sibbald has asthma and took a long time recovering from Covid, he also got stitches in his shin from a tackle by Byrne when we played Dundee, injuries and illness dogged him all last season and he just didn't get back fit to get a run in the team. I wish him well if he gets signed by Utd, deserves a bit of break after the shit he went through last season.

Ludo*1 Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Wee bit of chat on our forum that we could be paying you lads a nominal fee for Jack Hamilton. Reckon there could be any truth in that or just nonsense? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Martindale said on Saturday that "players" (note the plural) had newly asked to leave due to concerns over their playing time prospects this season. One was thought to be the back-up keeper, Konovalov. I've no idea, personally, and I'd be a bit surprised but I suppose it's possible Hamilton was the other. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought it was both our keepers leaving, and us bringing one in. I liked Max but he's making too many fuckups now, having an absolute mare of a pre season and cup game tonight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
