Facts better than speculation. Are you expecting TW to come out in the media, say he thinks they're shite and he wants them punted? Cant think of a single manager that would do that. garydavidson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His contract ends next Summer and the loan runs until then, his St Johnstone career is over, and hopefully Falkirk (who are apparently paying some players a fortune) are picking up the majority of his wage. Shame how it worked out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucker Posted September 4, 2019 Report Share Posted September 4, 2019 McMillan was never given a proper run,the only time he played was when watt arrived and played number ten role, until Kennedy took over, thought the lad was never given a ten game run like Kane,we will never know now, hope he goes to Falkirk and smashes it,if Tommy doesn't like you,no chance unfortunately Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had an unlucky start getting taken out by goalie when he looked good on his first start. Didn't really get a decent run when he returned from injury to reestablish himself. Interview in Falkirk Herald but no mention of enjoying his time at Saints. PauloPerth 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garydavidson Posted September 5, 2019 Report Share Posted September 5, 2019 A few names were being flung about on here when we were looking for a right back, interestingly Hutton didn't get any offers from Scotland: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49587918 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He mentions that he was refusing offers of training with clubs, just wanted to turn up and sign so still obviously full of himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's similar to managers who say they'd be interested in a job and all the club needs to do is call him. Well if you're that interested mate, you call them! I doubt they'll knock a chunk off your salary because you got the finger out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucker Posted September 6, 2019 Report Share Posted September 6, 2019 Ando to Raith for the season, thank you Mr st Johnstone for the memories, you were the best one on one tackler I have seen at saint's in thirty years of supporting, unfortunately saints are now really lacking experience at the back,see how it works out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we'll be after a left back who can play CB, so he fits the bill... Wish Ando all the best, shame how his time here has ended but it always has to end somehow.

He hardly played since he signed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheYellowBox Posted September 7, 2019 Report Share Posted September 7, 2019 On 8/20/2019 at 11:10 PM, TheYellowBox said: He will sign next week, with McMillan's contract being ended by mutual consent. The talk of a loan deal is a non starter, but serves a purpose that it indicates that Saints are still interested in May. Don't think for a second that Tommy doesn't use the media when he needs to. Would expect Anderson to go too, depending on Gordon showing he has fully recovered from injury. Tommy will also need to do a repair job on Kane's confidence. Feel for Kane as when he came back from QOS, he looked full of confidence and hungry, but that seems to of evaporated over time. He is suffering from not having a proven goalscorer alongside him. As predicted, Tommy feels that Kane needs a confidence boost and he is right. May is the main man up front, but we will need Kane over the season and great man management from Tommy to highlight the work he does. However, I'd rather we had moved Kane on and brought in another experienced front man. I know we are looking for back up at left back, but it wouldn't surprise me if we brought in a more senior striker in January. I suspect the work over the next few months will no focus on contract renewals. Who should we keep, move on and who still has the Jury out?
