A few days later Butterfield was in the paper talking about how he couldn't get around the park as he used to. I was in Newcastle a few weekends ago and went along to see Gateshead play and Butterfield played well playing number 10 behind a striker. They beat Ebbsfleet (who were shite) 5-1. Still managing to get himself decent transfers as they are top end of the National League. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theyellowbox Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 Yes to holt for me. Gives that bit of bite in the middle we are needing. Known quantity given he has been in the league lady season and as saints fans, we all know what he can do anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sh*teAndMuck Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 Funny how Brian McLaughlin makes no mention of the fact he is a former Saints player. Just Hearts, Livvy and Rangers mentioned. Standard. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted August 30 Author Share Posted August 30 Robert Thomson saying Holt is signed and we're likely to sign an experienced centre back after the window closes 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real Saints Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 Considering we only have one left-back and zero satisfactory goalkeepers in total, I have no idea why Levein is so fixated on prioritising another central defender. Anyway, Holt is a good signing and possibly the missing piece of the puzzle in an outfield sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PauloPerth Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 Holt is the one I asked for weeks back. Just a sensible consistent reliable signing. Does nothing spectacular. But can pass, tackle, get up and down the park to support strikers and track back to defend, can keep a shape and do the job he’s asked to do. A steady proven centre midfielder at our level. Good signing if it comes off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJFCtheTeamForMe Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 (edited) As others said the other week we were always going to sign combative type player for in the middle of the park based on how we play. There will be those who moan no matter who we sign but it seems most are reasonably fine with this one. Really concerned about Rae though Edited August 30 by SJFCtheTeamForMe 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PauloPerth Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 Someone mentioned him recently, but I wonder if Remi Matthews would consider returning, or if we considered asking. He’d still get his massive wages from Palace but get to have a kick about at the weekend with the lads. f**k it he could even train down there half the week. It’d keep him match fit and agreed recalled if one of their keepers got injured. He was a fairly consistent unspectacular keeper last time for us, and if there’s no one else out there available I’d take him back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real Saints Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 The St Johnstone Banter page are absolutely fuming about this signing. Starting to doubt my initial opinion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 Holt is one of those very 'meh' signings that no-one will get excited about but adds something massive to your current midfield and will be invaluable for the likes of Essel to learn from and is such a typical, steady St Johnstone signing that'll see you safe IMO. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
