AW saint Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 We will have to replace Strain, Carson and Baccus. I expect all 3 to leave before end of August. This is going to be a long few weeks waiting on money coming in to get replacements in 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given it's the middle of the summer holidays and there are other things on, not surprising. Added that we've played terribly in the last game, treat them as pre-season friendlies and it's against a team we played last year too. I just really have little interest in the group stage and I'll make my mind up on the day -suspect many others will too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MenstrieSaint Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 We moved on high earners and I'm guessing the guys we have brought in are on less wages so I,m thinking at the very least there will be two more signing until others move on . So I'm thinking Strapp and Pressley incoming . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved during that time when Morgan was so influential and devastating to other teams they'd either try (and sometimes still fail) to rugby tackle him or just stand there helpless as he powered past them. That 18 months spell where we stayed up then won the league is probably my favourite time watching St Mirren. Morgan played a huge part in that. Strain is still a great player though and I expect him to move on before the window shuts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AW saint Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 McMenemin injured already ffs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintmurn Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 (edited) McMenamin injured but should be back soon. Looking unlikely we'll sign anyone other than the striker (unless others leave or Robbo can convince the board). Lennon clearly still training with us too.

Shuggie_Murray7 Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 (edited) Robbo pretty much confirms that Carson will be away. So for me, a GK, LB and one more ST and I'd be happy with the squad. I would be surprised if all 3 of Olusanya, Jamieson and Offord are all here come the first league game. With another month to go of the window, there's plenty of time for comings and goings. I'm comfortble that the management will have targets - other than the mentioned forward - in mind and we just have to be patient. I'm delighted there's no rumours or hints at who else could be coming in. The business should kept totally under wraps until it's official. I think a massive section of the support just has to chill out a wee bit, be patient and see where we are come August 31.

Stan Bo Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 Why would we have Strapp and Marshall in training if we were done with our business? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Div Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 The recruitment this Summer has been really frustrating, I think everyone is feeling that. We've firstly had to recruit a goalkeeper, unexpectedly, because of the Carson fall out, and the general feeling, and this is no harm to Hemming, is that the current first choice goalkeeper is not as good as the one we've lost. I don't think that's hugely controversial. Then we've re-signed Chilli D, who was superb first part of last season, but who certainly tailed off a bit towards the end of the season. McMenamin looked a great bit of business, only to then come in and be played at LWB in his first real game, then also got injured. Nahmani also looks a good signing, but that then took about 5 weeks for him to arrive, and he's nowhere close to being fit to play. And we got Mandron, who, let's be honest, looks fairly underwhelming. Then there is the "exciting striker" we were promised "in the next day or so" a week ago, who is still not here. In between all that we've played two games against lower league opposition and lost them both without scoring a goal. You can understand why folk are getting agitated. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
