Radford Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Easton has looked good from since he joined but Wright said straight away that he'd need to work harder to get in his team. There's no doubt he's technically talented but he's maybe still viewed as too much of a luxury. He'll get a chance this season though. Up to him to take it.

Seems we've got a perfect replacement for Hasselbaink aswell now. Sign Clarkson as the usual haddy to replace Iwelumo and we're virtually there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real Saints Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 I know you're trying to troll, but theres no point taking much notice of our performance today, our team was filled with youngsters, back up or those coming back from injury. ..which is what I'm concerned about. For me, our starting XI is one of the strongest in the league. However, our squad seems to be sorely lacking in quality. This wasn't like the friendly against York in which we simply fielded a bunch of youngsters, most of whom will never step up to the first team. Our starting XI today was made up of a couple of first-team players, with the rest comprising of players who will be expected to step up to the plate when injuries occur. I know it was only a friendly, but it left me feeling very uneasy. The majority of these players simply aren't good enough or aren't ready yet. Having said that, I have to agree in regards to Dylan Easton. He was a class apart, as he was against York. He will get his chance, of that I have no doubt.

7-2 Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 He's quite clearly a tremendously talented player, hence why he's contracted past next season. Easy on the ball, strong for his size and a positivity about his play that's refreshing. I think he'll be getting game time with us before too long, especially if injuries strike like they always do. FFS...that long? That's at least two summers of wasted money. No wonder we're stoney broke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7-2 Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 700 Jambos there. Excellent turnout for a pre-season kick about. Hat duly tipped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifespud Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Offft takes something special to make a post containing 3 sentences and for all of them to either be incorrect, misspelt or just plain daft. So well done. Isn't the third one ok? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC92 Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Isn't the third one ok? The team that played Dundee contained only 3/4 first teamers. The first half team today was a bit closer to our strongest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Highlight of the match has to be the announcement of the subs just after half time "Saints subs are Mark Hurst for Steve Banks, and Chris Kane for Stevie May" ..... "Hearts changed everyone" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ghost of Jim Morton Posted August 3, 2014 Author Share Posted August 3, 2014 Just over 2000 fans and 700 of them hearts fans? That's an absolute disgrace for a testimonial. It's not often I agree with you but you are right this time.. Fair play to all that were there and those that were either working or away, but to those who just sat at home doing fuckall while the guy who gave us the lead in the cup final and basically answered our prayers had his benefit match, I say SHAME on you.. As for the Jambos fans.. CHEERS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 You disagree? The fans have been greeting about the chairman but would rather line his pockets rather than give one of your heroes a few quid. I dunno, can't really be arsed trying to think about it. Kind of wish I'd stayed away today though, my hangover was disappearing nicely until about five minutes in, I suddenly realised I'd autopiloted into my usual Main Stand seat which ended up being beside a swathe of 5 year old screaming children. It was torture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Up until about midday today, I wasn't going to this. Changed my mind as I thought the crowd numbers would end up being low after so many went to Lucerne and the two home matches as well as season tickets etc. I'm really disappointed but not particularly surprised the crowd was as low as that to be honest.
