Popular Post Broon Posted June 4, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 4, 2016 Tam Scobbie is exactly the type of player every club needs. Need a left back? He'll play. Need a centre half? He'll play. Need a midfielder? He'll play. Need a goalie? Tam will do it. Need a player to get totally wasted after a great Euro performance and spend a night with the fans celebrating? He'll do it. Important penalty in a Euro game? Tam will take it. Honestly, he may have his limitations but you can't fault the guy. If you asked him clean the bloody toilets for Saints I'm sure he'd do it. I also think it's easy to remember his mistakes but who remembers all of his last ditch, goal saving tackles? He puts it on the line every time he plays. St Johnstone are where we are now because of the Tam Scobbie's, not because of fancy, flashy footballers. ex-montrosesaintee, nickyg, Cagerf and 47 others 50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rik2304 Posted June 4, 2016 Report Share Posted June 4, 2016 The whole defence was shaking at the start of the season and Tam was making a few errors. However. He's generally very dependable all round and scored a lovely winner at a crucial time against Motherwell which he seemed delighted with.

RandomGuy Posted June 5, 2016 Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 Keep that rubbish for that other site you love so much.It was a joke, obviously.FWIW while I agree with the sentiment about it being Scobbie-esque players who have helped us to where we are, I'd also add that in the past our reluctance to move away from such players is also what drags us back down again.

Melbourne Saint Posted June 5, 2016 Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 TW will know too well what Scobbie brings to the team, and dressing room. If he stays, its for good reason. If he goes, it's because he believes someone better is available. Most players are on holiday, so nothing much happening in next week or so. Thank god we got Alston signed up early.

bankfoot saint Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 If Paton signs I take it that will be all our business done unless we move someone on. It's going to be a long transfer window Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 If Paton signs I take it that will be all our business done unless we move someone on. It's going to be a long transfer window Tommy said 3 or 4 more before Alston signed. Add Paton, so we've got '1 or 2' more to go.I'd guess Dow (or someone similar) and a striker. Maybe a centre back I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al C Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 The good times could only last so long. The signing of Paton marks the start of our decline. It's been great while it lasted. 541ntees 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
