LAUGH OUT LOUD sorry cagey I've been on the pop what I tried to say is that it's pathetic that he's signed for forest green south inch 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlickDT Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 Not overly fussed to miss out on him. I'd prefer us to base the side around Scougall playing centrally. He's a superior player to Williams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saintdunc Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 I'd like to think that Tommy and SB are going to pull a couple of rabbits out of the hat, and we will be surprised at the quality of the signings, but then I wake up and smell the coffee. dunkeldneil, tucker and Coltrane 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crieffsaintandy Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 Usual saints get your hopes up at the end if the season about the signings we need and then nothing happens, wright will come out one week and say need goalie striker etc then week after say not happening go with what we have. I thought with a lot of the bigger earners moving they would have a bit more to offer, maybe they will but not very inspiring at the moment. Not fussed by Williams, there was never much end product and not a patch on Swanson, need a decent centre mid, pacy winger, striker, goalie and still need a good dominant centre half.

Pat McGroin Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 He sounded really keen to stay. Word was that his Mrs loved it up here. I wouldn’t be surprised to hear that an offer from Saints didn’t materialise. Cagey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cagey Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 Was sure Williams wanted to sign. Think given a run & getting used to way the team plays he could have been a good part of the team. Not the finished article but can't see us getting anyone better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Main1 Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 I agree, needed a bit of work but think he could have turned into a quality player at this level, MOH had no real end product in his early days here too and managed develop him in to a decent player Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tucker Posted June 13, 2018 Report Share Posted June 13, 2018 Media policy is poor from saints, no updates on when players returning,how the pitch etc is going,looked at some second division websites etc and look more appealing etc, Have no issues with resigning players had hoped Williams might return looked okay last season, saints need a spark game changer a Templeton, Swanson player also someone of midge's quality to hold on to the ball as midge and Jody Morris did, Is Paul sheeerin free LAUGH OUT LOUD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ghost of Jim Morton Posted June 13, 2018 Report Share Posted June 13, 2018 Saints never made an offer to Williams.. Chairman still on holiday and not back till Monday when he will oversee the signing of ….. No-one of any note..

Correct Pat but it does not fit in with some posters on here who keep moaning about the Chairman. Perhaps they would prefer a "Marr" or a "White" type chairman!!

Quite the opposite. It was looked on as a good move at the time and I'm sure we beat Killie and another club for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry it went over your head.. The bit about signing horses ( Sutton, Johnstone etc) was not though. We always sign a horse last minute and this season will be no different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnstone not so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
