AthensSaint Posted April 9, 2017 Report Share Posted April 9, 2017 The Saints Exiles have up to Saturday 5th May to register their vote for our overseas POTY award. Exiles we define as any saints supports living outside the borders of Scotland. I will start the ball rolling by posting my vote to Zander Clark. To keep Alan Mannus out of the starting eleven just shows how good he is. He has a bit to learn but by far the best young goalkeeper in Scotland and should be called up to the Scotland squad to develop his strong potential. We look forward to as many people participating as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broon Posted April 10, 2017 Report Share Posted April 10, 2017 (edited) Think that the way Alan Mannus has returned to the first team deserves recognition so I am therefore undecided yet between him and Zander. If Mannus retains his place until 5th May then it will be an interesting choice. I still think Mannus pushes too many shots out in front of his goal. A couple on Saturday required some great defensive concern to sweep up. He has been terrific though in the last 3.5 games and shows we have two excellent goalies. Would be happy with either lining up which says it all. Same praise must go for Tam Scobbie and Clive Smith too. We should be desperate for Ando and foster to come back but the defence has arguably been as good if not better without.

stanley saint Posted April 10, 2017 Report Share Posted April 10, 2017 have to agree with my Greek based compadre, Zander has come in and been brilliant for us. I do feel that Joe has improved us also. AthensSaint 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coltrane Posted April 11, 2017 Report Share Posted April 11, 2017 I'll give my vote to Clive Smith. Tommy got a bit of stick from the forum when he signed - but for a youngster had done an admirable job when needed. Carry on the good work Clive!! blueheaven 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

essexsaint Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 From what I have seen so far this season in Perth, on TV and reading match reports I'm going to say Liam. Thanks for getting the ball rolling on this Athens. stanley saint, AthensSaint and sixties saintee 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AthensSaint Posted April 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 do you exiles watch the games? Mannus has played 9 league matches and clive has played 2 No of course we don't watch any games. Most of us think we still play at Muirton Park and half of us can't remember where Perth is. Regardless, we still have great fun pretending that we love and support our team from afar. Hopefully that makes you feel better x stanley saint and The ghost of Jim Morton 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AthensSaint Posted April 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 (edited) It looks like some people want to do a 1. 2.and 3. So that is good, 3 points for first, 2 points for second etc etc. If you want to give just one name, he we'll get 3 points. The deadline of the 5th May is because Ghostie at his own expense, needs to take our Exiles trophy to get engraved in time for the POTY evening. The Exiles POTY trophy was bought by contributions by us exiles nearly three years ago and with the help of our treasurer, StanleySaint. Similar to Steve McQueens prediction league, you can alter your vote up to the very last day. As the previous post the trophy went to Allan Mannus in 2015 and David Wotherspoon in 2016. Also it would be great to have an Exile be able to attend the POTY evening to present the trophy on our behalf so any volunteers either by PM or on this thread would be grateful. I think last year we had TeamWork Express do the honors. Last of all, please try and post as it is great fun seeing and registering that we have saintees on all continents and corners of the globe.

babychunder Posted April 13, 2017 Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 I'll go for Zander too. I've only been to four games this season so far, but he impressed me in all of them. Joe the Throw also very steady so second place to him. Third I'll go for Danny Swanson, when he's up for it he looks like the one guy who can change the game for us.

Very similar to the one Monty uses for the Man of the Match polls. Well done. AthensSaint 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
