For someone that doesn't like the tag you put a damn good case for yourself Well done just a pity you are so shy and retiring

I disagree. His development has gone backwards this season and from what I've seen I put that down to how he's been used. He started the season as first choice striker but was played on his own with no support so was having to chase the ball all over the pitch instead of playing the role that we saw him excel in last season. For me he played well in those early games, but as soon as May came back to fitness Hendry lost his place in the team because there was only space for one of them. It's basically been a struggle for him ever since. For most of this season we've adopted a system that quite simply doesn't suit any of the four strikers we have. May and Hendry showed last season that they can play well together, and I believe we'd have more points on the board now if we'd played them together in the early stages of this season. I agree with the second half of your post though.

My dad is still a season ticket holder at 86 attending home and away games last season having been through the Ormond era, the pre Brown era, the mcDiarmid years and having seen his team win first Scottish Cup. Used to be a load of older guys all standing behind the goals at Muirton when i was young and i think of all the dads he is the only one left. @dave mc will remember of these days

Nope There was a bit of a q wee break out between two sets of fans and our section was then out of the area that was originally half and half for toilets and pie shed So you basically had to walk towards there fans for food and a pee I walked towards this dude with helmet and what I remember as q black boiler suit type thing Any way he said "Where you going ya Perth b****** "I"'m going for a pie"@Said "You will need to get past me then "Said Mr Helmet " So I nutted him threw the visor part of the helmet which he invited me to do by lifting it up I struck him firmly to the ground to much cheers from Saints fans and another wee battle broke out.

Transfers are simple when it’s inside the same football association I’m sure, as all the documentation is already in place.

Not sure what to make of this thread to be honest I'm not really all that keen on the top Saints Fan tag or Legend, but of people want to discuss it fair does! Despite following Saints for well 50 years now I find it embarrassing,for instance I have a gift from Chris Millar with to Gav.Saints No 1 fan.While that's nice ,how many No 1 fans have the same kind of thing When it comes to length of commitment to supporting the team saw some games throughout child hood starting 72 and up till I left the forces in 1981 and in that spell also managed to See John Connolly and Jim Pearson at Everton and Birmingham From about 81 to mid 90s I hardly missed a game home or away, and if I did it Would be for a specific reason. I've therefore for seen the disappointing relegations and the joys of promotion,and even pipping Hearts to step up to the big League title as a part time team. At that time winning the Scottish Cup ,or even League Cup was a pipe dream We regularly got studded by Meadowbank and Cowdenbeath to name 2 teams and have even travelled on the team bus on occasion because we didn't have enough to fill one single supporters bus I have been on the pitch (Legally)Well ish!Dressed as a Gorrilla accompanied by Zoro(The fan) And I have,let's just say been a naughty boy at Palmerston getting the better of a QOS fan with a crash helmet on(If you know you know) I have had numerous players becoming friends who still keep in touch and some great nights involving players at Supporters nights I've witnessed some terrible managers and players and have even been a part of a small group who hounded one Manager out My walls are plastered with Memorabilia and I have a St.johnstone mug collection of about 50 and a badge and strip collection,which over the years has even been thinned down just to make more I have been filmed for TV more that once and on Sportscene (Tattoo)and been part of a Centre spread in the Daily record I could go on and on but thats just a snippet Yea I love St.johnstone to the extent I named my son Callum Fraser John Stewart,after Callum Davidson .I drink eat and sleep St.johnstone But ..Legend @@!!Na ,not for me In my time watching St.johnstone I would probably put the late Jimmy McLiesh forward as a nomination.

Before my time in Cleveland thank god .... ! New era now

Not being a great tackler. Not the best for a sitting midfielder.

Might be wrong but I have a feeling McInnes has played a blinder in getting Hendry. I'm going to predict that he'll do very well for Aberdeen. Just because Saints have wasted him this season doesn't mean another team will. I think the guy will get a big confidence boost from this move and when he's on the pitch he'll get more chances to score than he did at Saints. From McInnes' perspective, worst case scenario is that he's brought in a striker who'll be a useful impact sub (a role he's played very well for Saints) and probably isn't costing much. Of course it could work out well for Saints too. If he does well there we've suddenly got him firing on all cylinders for next season - either to come back in and do well for us, or head somewhere else for a much better transfer fee than we'd have got otherwise. If he does nothing, we won't really have lost anything out of it. It does arguably leave us a little short of strikers but I think the fact that we've swapped a striker (Hendry) for another wide player (Middleton) says everything about how CD sees us lining up more often than not.

Remember it well Mainstand, you’re right your dad is the only one left , of that wee collection of fans, all old guys that followed home and away, I remember your dad and you from the 70’s, more down than ups back then, but been great watching the last while

We are all legends but much as I loved Muirton and have lots of good memories of the place it really was absolutely awful at the end so anyone who endured it through the 80’s are slightly bigger legends.

......and the smell of pipe tobacco!

Sometimes they take the 'e' off the end of 'St Johnstone' too. I guess that's so they can give it to Livingston.

I could be wrong but I can see return to 3 4 3 with Conway coming back in for a Wotherspoon Kane Conway type but Kane may be rested for May to come in Don't see any changes to back 3 plan wingback s and probably Craig coming in
