tree house tam Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 1 hour ago, RandomGuy. said: Why waste everyone's time though. He was apparently approached by Hibs in December, so why was he still telling TW last week that he wanted to sign a new contract with us? It's not the fact he's leaving that's annoying, it's the way he's gone about it, yet again. There are faults by both parties here. It would've been good to keep him but if Saints (not just TW) really wanted to, they would've got it tied up ages ago. Same goes for Swanson if he really wanted to stay. Look on the brightside Random, we can afford Scougall now 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Costanza Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 A few people suggesting over the past 24 hours that this rumour is true. I'm confused here. If they didn't want to give him a contract extension then why have they, em, just given him one? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently he hasn't played much over the past two months despite being fit due to it, for one reason or another. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hasn't played much due to the form of Craig and Paton I would suggest..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie_B Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 In our hands now. My initial thoughts are that four points should be enough, particularly if any of those points are taken from Hearts. They have a huge opportunity to put pressure on us the way the fixtures have fallen though-wouldn't be surprised if we were level on points after the next two games with us having two hard away fixtures and Hearts looking to take victories in the last games in front of the old Main Stand at Tynecastle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No fans yet the team still rise to it and get you into Europe. Top drawer and quality business. Just find more fans. Why?

That's my thinking too. One more win and avoid defeat to Hearts and we're there. What would be the possible countries we could travel to? Hopefully not Armenia or Kazakhstan or that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Which countries are in our region? No idea. It's apparently split into North, Central and South "regions" though. So you'd expect it to be the Scandinavian countries. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 As if confirmation was actually needed, Tommy Wrights confirmed Swanson has signed for Hibs. Hes "keeping his thoughts to himself" on the matter, for now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Swanson to say it's family reasons fair enough, but he should've had the decency of admitting months ago instead of taking the piss. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that what he's said? As you say though, his reasoning for joining them isn't an issue, it's the way he's acted 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radford Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Supporters look for loyalty but I think most realise it's in hope rather than expectation with footballers. There is no excuse for dishonesty though and Swanson repeatedly paints himself in a bad light on that front. Steve Brown has already rebuked his claims at Xmas time and if he has led Saints up the the garden path again, I hope the club/manager come out and call him out for it. Even fans of other clubs are pointing out how it looks from the outside. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he plays you kind of feel like he owes us a big performance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
