The Real Saints 884 Report post Posted July 15 To be fair to RG, anyone who is remotely familiar with the 'St. Johnstone Banter' Facebook page is probably aware that there would almost definitely be a backlash amongst a section of our support if Stevie May were to hypothetically sign for Dundee or Dundee United.

RandomGuy 2,728 Report post Posted July 15 (edited) 23 minutes ago, SaintJet said: Oh Calm Down! I'm not convinced May would be worth his price tag so lets move on. I think our manager will be prudent enough to have another striker in the frame and there is still plenty time to add to the squad. TWs strike rate with signing strikers is absolutely abysmal, if we miss out on May I highly doubt hes got some superb striker sitting as second choice.

Center Half 415 Report post Posted July 15 So according to an Agent (Alan Preston) players coming to the end of a lucrative contract if they have not signed for another club before the end of the contract date (In most cases 30th June) the club is required to pay them an additional Month salary? (31st July) Steven Naysmith, possibly Matty Kennedy last season fell into this category. So there is a chance of players moving after the 31st July.

RandomGuy 2,728 Report post Posted July 15 (edited) Not seen it mentioned, but TW gave an update on the injury situation today. Clark - Will miss Montrose, but should be back for County on Sunday. Anderson - Will be assessed but likely only fit enough to make up the numbers on the bench. Should be back for County game. Craig - Same as Anderson. Kennedy - Will miss Montrose and County games. Hoping to have him back by, at worst, the final group game. Kane - Will miss Montrose but should be back for County game. Gordon - Around 4 weeks until back in contention Wright - No time frame given. A suggestion on P&B theres been another injury in training today aswell, but they've not been named yet. Senior squad for tomorrow is now Parish, Sinclair, Foster, Duffy, Kerr, Tanser, Callachan, Davidson, McLean, McCann, Wotherspoon, MOH, Swanson, McMillan and Hendry. But if the poster is right, one of them will also be missing. Edited July 15 by RandomGuy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quotes from him today hes to sell one or two players until any signings will be sanctioned. We have 13 fit players to get us through the next two games, so clearly wont be selling anyone until after the County game on Sunday. It's being reported May will decide his move before the weekend, Dundee are the only club confirmed to have agreed negotiations. Join the dots. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Staying at Aberdeen as fourth/fifth choice is ending his career. Dundee are the only club offering him a way out. We've stopped, because we apparently have too many players.

Johnny B 89 Report post Posted July 16 Yesterday Tommy said "We had Liam Craig and Steven Anderson sit out training today. We'll assess them both tomorrow and I'm hoping they may be able to be named on the bench."

garydavidson 1,430 Report post Posted July 16 David McMillan is about the only guy I could think who is really surplus to requirements (based on his reported pre-season form) and could possibly be moved on.
