Your thoughts on trialist Radford ?

Even in a friendly against Nairn, I thought Stevie May showed he'd bring far more to that role behind the main striker than Clark does, if it's how they want to play.

Absolutely agree with @Radford.

Thought this last season too re Stevie May. Feel that with a pre-season and consistent games for May, Levein will get a chance to see May's ability and influence in this role behind main striker.

Although it was against Nairn, I think May scoring, and hopefully more goals during pre-season and League Cup, could see a confident Stevie May back- he is a confidence player, so here's hoping.

Connor Smith has many of my least favourite traits in a footballer, mainly though that he only moves the ball on when he's finished with it and that only usually happens if he can't get a shot off. Needs to be far more (generously) aware or less (ungenerously) selfish.

Trying to take the man on in the corner, whilst facing the corner flag, when Keltjens was open for the ball to be laid back was certainly a bold strategy.

Aaron Cocks, Australian who just finished a three year Scholarship at Brooke House College in England, represented England at school boy level earlier this year

Just wait until we play Raith then you could have cocks and dicks on the pitch! 

[Radford]

With the knowledge now that the trialist is probably only around 18 then he did pretty well.

But there has to be a serious discussion had about whether we can sign someone called Cocks.

Why? We have had teams full of them before.

[RandomGuy.]

Definitely looks like him?

Now I understand why RG was suggesting xhamster for streaming purposes.

FWIW he seemed to be on trial at Hull City recently too, he's down as playing for their u18s in May against Colchester (and he scored).

[The Saintee]

At least it's different to the recent history of signing fannies.

Just googled "cocks, St Johnstone" and got a video of the FCU fighting outside St Mirren.

Just think of the puns our media team could do though. 
 

“Hard Cocks tackle”

”Cock Extension”

”Cocks taken before ball”

Come on there’s so much low hanging fruit!

I’ll probably hold off posting my admiration for him though, should he be good.

Having our first team senior players fit at the start of the season can be the difference between another season fighting relegation and something a bit more positive.

 

It may well not have worked out last season for Maclean anyway, we’ll never know, but having to put out a team full of kids and raw trialists for the first month set our path for the entire season and led to his sacking.

Would be nice if we made some effort over who we bring in and how we train and recover to avoid a repeat.

[The Real Saints]

Judging by his highlight reel, this lad is clearly the Lionel Messi of schoolboy football.

 

We must sign him up immediately.
