Ended up selling it to Honest Saints Fan for a small fortune too. Genuinely the best thing I've ever paid for. I couldn't give a f**k what Macca gets up to in his last few weeks here. He is a beautiful man and can do no wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian McColligan too? Those were the days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7-2 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 58 minutes ago, Skyline Drifter said: Probably! He did well for us before he went to you though. In the immediate aftermath of John Connolly moving from QoS to St Johnstone he tried to unsettle a few of our players and entice them to follow him to Perth, failing with attempts to get Steve Bowey and Eric Paton in particular to move. Eventually a pre-contract offer to David Bagan was accepted and, rather than keep relatively quiet on it as most clubs do, St Johnstone had him pictured in the main stand waving a St Johnstone scarf above his head on their website in January, six months before he was due to sign. It was a pretty obvious deliberate attempt to unsettle the relationship between player and existing club and it worked. Bagan moved a week or so later rather than wait to June. His position with us was fairly untenable by the way it was done. Still, much better relationship between the clubs since then to be fair. St Johnstone made up for everything and a whole lot more by allowing Stephen Dobbie to join us, never mind the successes of David Weatherston, Derek Holmes, Mark Durnan, Zander Clark, Jason Kerr & Chris Kane (and anyone else I've missed) since. That's not good. I shall allow you the rolling eyes on this occasion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tree house tam Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Our average age will drop dramatically next season. That'll be three 35 year olds gone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted April 17, 2018 Author Share Posted April 17, 2018 That's rotten news but probably the most easily replaced of the 3 stalwarts going with Clark already on our books. This summer truly is the end of an incredible era for Saints. At least 3 cup winners going and no confirmation on the future of Anderson and Davidson yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Kane (2020) Out of contract; Mark Hurst Ben McKenzie Keith Watson Steven Anderson Scott Tanser Blair Alston Chris Millar Murray Davidson Callum Hendry Greg Hurst Loans Expired Matty Willock George Williams Denny Johnstone Leaving the Club Alan Mannus Steven Maclean 14 first team players signed up for next season, 10 out of contract, 3 loans expiring and two players definitely leaving the club. Bearing in mind we're now more than half way through April, the club have got a busy few weeks ahead. Of those out of contract/who's loans are expiring, we know that Tanser has an offer on the table (he confirmed it in an interview a few weeks ago), we're interested in making Williams a permanent signing (confirmed by the manager) and that the manager mentioned that he expects Hendry to be here next season when discussing our striking options ( in this morning's Courier). In the same interview, Wright noticeably doesn't mention Denny Johnstone so you have to assume he wont be offered anything. Millar and Watson have previously been told they're free to find new clubs and I don't see that changing - both have been in squads recently but neither have played many minutes. No real idea what's going on with the rest as yet. You're killing me, St Johnstone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7-2 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 That's a pity but understandable given it was his choice to go home. Wanted him to stay but it's not too bad when we've a little conveyor belt of keepers on the go though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurst had potential a few years ago, don't know how he's been doing lately though, should be good as cover at least. Tommy will be cumming in his pants at the budget.

RandomGuy. Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I think Hurst struggled out on loan tbh, I'd be a bit nervous about him being second choice. Totally understand why both Mannus and MacLean are leaving, still hard to take though, they've been key players for a long time now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifespud Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I wonder if that's why we're keeping the signing of Mark O'Hara under wraps? Either that or we're trying to avoid McCann throwing another tantrum. Please be true, please. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All depends if Clark can play 35 games a season, if he could I'd go with a youngster. It's a big gamble but Tommy has said this is the summer for change.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
