Radford Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Just close the doors now if the manager addresses his priority position with the signing of Joe Cardle. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re either paying him a small fortune or he had nothing better, including us. He’s got more than enough ability to play higher than that though. I’d have liked to sign him, but not massively upset. He never really found a position in our team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A sad confirmation we can't compete financially with clubs down south. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radford Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 I was never sold on Williams and I think signing him would have been a case of settling for. I think we need to try and find a player that will have a more discernible impact on the team. He was young though. How much the manager wanted him will be interesting though. Could finally see the silence broken if the manager gives the chairman both barrels! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our last game of last season was the 12th of may and I think Tommy gave an interview the week following that match. It’s now the 12th of June and we’re nearly a month without any team related news from the club, aside from the new contracts of Tanser, Anderson and Hurst which were clearly held back to fill the period where we’ve had no news. Cant be many clubs - part-time or full-time - who have had so little output from their clubs. It’s becoming a farce. Edit: Williams was a good player but not a player I’m devastated to miss out on. If we sign some pish like Cardle I’ll be pretty annoyed right enough. Edited June 12, 2018 by Kyle 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7-2 Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Forest Green play in a town the size of Crieff. To say they are a rich man's plaything is one of life's great understatements. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real Saints Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Swanson or Habran, please. Also heard that we'll shortly be announcing the arrival of former Liverpool and Ross County striker David N'Gog. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also heard that we'll shortly be announcing the arrival of former Liverpool and Ross County striker David N'Gog. I FMd Habran the other day and he's in Belgium now, can't see him being realistic. Swanson will be at Hibs next season. Big worry here is we've maybe spent the past few months focusing on Williams, and maybe missing out on others, although that's just RG speculation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Positive, sometimes. Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Only reaffirms how little we appeal to players. Often had this debate with fellow Saints fans who bleat "were a consistent top 6 side". Lets face it, players couldn't give a f**k about that. All about money. People will blame Tommy, more will blame Brown but the reality is we simply cannot complete financially and are not an appealing place to come and play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
