Shuggie_Murray7 Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Now that’s a Stephen. Robinson signing if ever I saw one. Just because Stephen Robinson is our manager, and he signed him. Am I right? 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Dons fans glad to see the back of him can't be that bad surely. You don't go from playing international football to being utter shit in space off a couple of years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because Stephen Robinson is our manager, and he signed him. Am I right? Nailed it. The Motherwell fans banter on this has been decent to be fair. It’s the close season, and a wind-up never hurt anyone. Three questions. Same as for any St Mirren signing… Is he better than what we had already? Is he carrying a really serious injury that put off bigger clubs? Does he look good in a badged-up training top in Ireland? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say one more midfielder and another defender and we'll be good to go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Now up to six ex-Motherwell players in the squad, has any club ever had so many ex-players of one other club in the history of football? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't go from playing international football to being utter shit in space off a couple of years. In his start at Fir Park he was the best central defender we'd had in years and years. But he was injured (or ill, can't mind) just before the corona halt, was below that level when football returned and got progressively worse - to the extent we were better with him out the team - before leaving in a dubious manner. If you can get him playing in the form he had August-December 2019 he's a truly outstanding signing but given that's a few months out of an average career, he's probably in the 'punt worth taking' category rather than a guaranteed addition of quality. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first meeting will seem like a testimonial . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, St Mirren are absolute fucking box office on here. We sign a player and obviously it's going to be big news and extensively discussed across multiple threads by fans of every club. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buttocks Brown Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 (edited) Put simply, it's Conor McCarthy (who had a relatively poor season) out and Declan Gallagher in. I think most St Mirren fans would have taken that 2 months ago, especially in the absence of any alternatives.
