This is it. Fans accepting the absolute clusterfuck is only going to make it more difficult for us to get out of the rut. Also not convinced the club are trying particularly hard. The signings we’ve made are about as lazy as they come. Old stagers released by Scottish clubs or who have previous connections to Scotland, or indeed agents in Scotland, and a loanee from millwall. Phillips hasn’t looked great the last two games, hopefully he’ll improve with games, but that’s at least someone we can develop and potentially sell on. Paying a fee for a 31 year old striker who hasnt been particularly prolific 2 days before the deadline stinks of panic signing to me. Speaking to Flaherty, I was given the impression there was something potentially more exciting in the pipeline (not through anything he actually said, just details of what he’s been up to). Hopefully there is and this is one of two signings we’re going to make up front. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJFCtheTeamForMe Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 There was a hint earlier in the posts about potentially being another centre forward. I'd expect on loan. Millwall got any loanees available? 🫤 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theyellowbox Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 C'mon, are folk honestly believing we'd spend £300k of a 31 year old striker?? There is much wrong at Saints, but they are not insane. if we've paid, say £50k, for a striker who was top scorer at the team that finished 4th last season, then it doesn't sound too bad does it? I strongly dislike his dad, but I can see the logic in signing Clark. We know he can score in this league, he gives us something different from the fit scoring options we have and all in with wages etc, it's not likely to be a hugely expensive signing. There is something of a Macca signing in this for me, similar scoring record, age and style of play. Ultimately, if he comes in and does the job, we'd all be delighted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle Posted August 30, 2022 Author Share Posted August 30, 2022 Matthews McGowan Mitchell Considine Wright Hallberg Phillips Montgomery Carey Clark Murphy I’d take a stab that’ll be our preferred 11 for the next wee while, after Gordon’s brain fart ridden performance against Hearts? I’d guess Spoony and Kane will figure in there when they’re fit again. Staggering the turnover of players in the team, longest serving player in that 12 is Hallberg who we signed in the last week of the January window this year. We are absolutely crying out for some pace, the current squad must be the slowest I can ever remember is having. Wright is the quickest in that 11 and MOH and maybe Bair are the only others who have pace in the entire squad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steviemay17 Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Can't find the exact stat, but if you take out his penalty record he scores around 1 goal every 6/7 games in the top flight, he's not exactly a proven goalscorer at this level 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked this, then unliked it just so I could like it again. I saw Eric Nicolson in a thread with someone today where he said he'd never criticise a player (Considine) for setting their sights high. Yet when we do it (and we aren't even, it's just we want more than 6 wins in 32 games and turgid, repetitive football) we are negative... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosgrove would be an excellent signing and would surely mean a change to a 3-5-2, I can’t see us signing two expensive strikers and sticking to a shape which only really allows for one. We’d then have Spoony, Murphy, Carey, Crawford and Kucheriavyi competing for 1 place in the team. I can’t believe Cosgrove is still only 25. Feel like he’s been around (and scoring against us) forever. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we’re going after 2 signings up front, it suggests to me that Kanes going to be out for even longer than January. still expecting a midfielder too.

Heavily linked with Killie. Probably will go there if he gets the chance. Reunite with McInnes... He's also been linked with Plymouth.

Valentino Bolognese Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Callum's a genius. He saw the disastrous impact of getting to the last day of the transfer window and losing valuable young players critical to the success of a winning team and thought 'there's no way I'm letting that happen again'. Mission accomplished. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSJ.84 Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Seen a couple of people on twitter suggesting we’re in for Louis Moult. Assuming that’s just because we’re looking for a striker and he’s available on loan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
