RandomGuy. Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Despite what's been reported to in the press, there is at least two players who's contract is up in the summer who have not even had one discussion about extension. One of them shocks me. No idea what brown is playing at leaving talks so late. I know hibs and Dundee have already been in contact ( it's not Swanson ) with one of them. If it really is Shaughnessy, I'll be gutted 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widge Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 If it really is Shaughnessy, I'll be gutted It'll be Mannus, which doesn't really bother me that much. I'd rather he played than Zander, but it's good we're giving him a chance to improve. Big Joe will sign again, as will the likes of Easton. The only person who's out of contract that there's a slight doubt about it Swanson. Even then I actually think he'll sign eventually. His wife will see to that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radford Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 His name was Anthony Petrilli. He left PSG's second side in the summer and joined FC Trelissac in the fourth tier of the French pyramid, which is the same level he was playing at. The club are struggling but he has 7 goals in 14 league game. Not sure he'll be giving TW many sleepless nights but factually he was indeed attached to one of Europe's top clubs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Doubt we'd be after Shaughnessy. Easton and Mannus - potentially. Even MacLean would be more likely than Shaughnessy as we are more than covered at CH. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His agent is from Perth and now works in France. As I said at the time, it was agent who was trying to get Saints to have a look at him at the tail end of the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even MacLean would be more likely than Shaughnessy as we are more than covered at CH. We're also apparently after Considine too. If that were true, I don't think the Easton thing would happen as I think that would indicate that Hartley would be more keen in finding someone who isn't primarily a left back but has the versatility to cover. Have a feeling Julen will be moved on, doubt Gomis will stay and McPake is a total unknown (I'm pretty sure his new contract must have contained a sizable wage reduction and was with a view to coaching responsibilities or else it makes zero sense) so there may be potential for a couple of defensive reinforcements in yet. Do agree though that it's unlikely since it isn't a priority at the current minute and we don't have a clear landscape. I'd also think that Hartley would go for at least one player who is maybe a bit more of a development option from down the leagues (maybe O'Ware or a McGeever type) as he may fancy himself to find someone with a bit more potential and long term value. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very interesting. Now f**k off back to the Dundee thread. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Woolshed Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Craig Thomson returns to us having played 21 games in League 1. Ready to have any impact for us or do you think he may end up out on loan elsewhere? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Craig Thomson returns to us having played 21 games in League 1. Ready to have any impact for us or do you think he may end up out on loan elsewhere? I'll no doubt get utterly hounded for this, but I'd rather we just negotiated his release. He's clearly not good enough and really needs to avoid becoming similar to Caddis. If he hadn't hit form when we desperately needing a right winger, he'd probably have left in the summer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of agree. Give him till end of season then if he doesn't shape up, release. May seem harsh but at a club like saints we can't have too many passengers if we're to maintain being one of the top 5 teams in the country. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radford Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Thomson can't play for anyone else this season as he featured for Saints in the Betfred Cup, so he's got a few months to try and show his worth. Suppose you'd need to know who has ended the arrangement but could be that Tommy Wright feels he can offer something, as he'll still have been seeing him in training most days? Although trying to bring O'Halloran back doesn't support that. Thought he was making an impact off the bench before he got his first start but never really kicked on and didn't take his chance at the start of this season against Brechin, when he was very disappointing. Would be surprised if he makes it at Saints but we've made mistakes in the past when not giving players a chance after loan spells. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Woolshed Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 I'm not adverse to giving him a go till the end of the season. He's different to the options we currently have so no harm giving him a run of bench games or the odd start. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perthsaint1977 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 He has something we lack, out and out pace. Looked good when come off the bench previously. Hopefully the 21 Games he has played has helped him become more tactically aware . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Center half Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 How does this amount of teams you can play for work out? is it two teams per season if so how can Scott Allan be looking at another team to be loaned to, Also Commons is another one? Joe Gormley can not play for any one else this season seemingly as he played for Peterbourgh and Saints. I must admit I thought it was three teams including your parent club.??????? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
