Double Winning St Johnstone FC Thread


Recommended Posts

The Courier linking us to 18 year old Ghanan Aaron Essel. Has been in the full Ghana squad already, currently plays for Bechem United in Ghana. 
 

Wikipedia reckons he's played over 60 first team games at club level already. 
 

Yes please.

Scott Burns saying Essel, along with a Ugandan Allan Oyirwoth, were over training with us towards the end of last season, but we're not progressing with the latter. 
 

Enjoying this new approach to transfers. Certainly better than giving the dads army crew 2 year deals.

Obviously I know nothing of the Ghanian lad we're being linked with. 

Will they get work permits? It's more difficult than ever to get one. 

Would have to appeal to get them as they'd rejected first off I thought. 

FWIW Essel has the same "GBE score" as the winger United are looking at, so if they get a permit for him then there's almost no chance we don't for Essel considering age/international cap situation.

Seen twitter rumours of that last week. 

Seems insane 😵‍💫🤷‍♂️

They sign a decent amount of players from Scotland don't they? If Kyle McLean can be a top end player in that league then Ballantyne can.

Going by the Motherwell thread at the moment hopefully our new American overlord is more on the saner side of the scale…….

If it's any consolation we scared that one off just by telling him the figures involved. Absolute chancer.

Aye. I'd be absolutely terrified if our new owner was spending time on this site tbh, especially with how his entire plan seems based on Caledonian Braves set up (sell your club to American investors who are bored, create an app so people can vote on club decisions).

And get his crappy media company to make a documentary....

While getting the fans to actually put in more money than he will. It's a farce but you've still got no righters on his side because "he seems a good honest guy as he's posting on P&B". It's a shit show and hopefully the well fans see through it.
