    It’s been obvious to me and I’m sure many others far more qualified for a few seasons that we don’t score enough goals but nothing positive has been done to make things better.
    We keep signing defenders on loan never strikers. The only striker was Olaufe and he only stayed about a month.
    Not signing a striker ready to go before Europe was a shocking error.

    Things are dire at the moment. Things need to change fast and our midfield needs an overhaul, but Callum has earned the right to sort it out and given funds in the window he will hopefully do just that. We've had a dire run of injuries and sold two linchpins of the side.
    First port of call should be to send Crawford and any of the loanees not up to it packing!

    Peak 2021 internet when a guy on a football forum somehow manages to find a way to link a striker not getting a game to "woke snowflakes".

    There is literally so much wrong with that statement on so many levels that I’m not even going to bother trying to reason with you.

    Oh god. I'm over all the "struggling to adapt to Scottish football".
    What in the world makes Scottish football so special that it requires 5 months of training to comprehend? You can learn Chinese quicker. I could build an IKEA wardrobe quicker.
    I'm f*cking over these "woke/PC/ millennial" b/s excuses- it sounds like the bollocks politicians say when something goes tits-up.
    Instead of actually stating what the problems are, just use a generic, all-encompasing, non-offensive to the LGBTQI community & snow flake statement. "Struggling to adapt."
    It's not rocket science. We play defensive, counter, use flanks, direct ball, forward press.
    It's physical. Run a lot. Put tackles in. Head the ball. Make diagonal runs. Overload flanks as required. Pretty straightforward.
    What exactly is the f*cking problem??? English? Who gives a f*CK. Half the players in the league don't understand shit.
    Just say it! Having trouble tracking back? Positional sense? Work rate? Attitude?Teamwork?Heading? Tackling? Gender queries?
    I'd fully support him (do anyway as want him to succeed) if CD just said... He's struggling tracking back/ pressing and we're working on it.
    Fine. No more smokey mirrors. No more fricking speculation about game time. It's only fair to Eetu & we'd understand.
    End of rant.

    Disappointing end to Hendry’s Saints career.
    His goals practically kept us up or at the very least out of a relegation fight. I’ll always be grateful to him for that. 
    It’s a shame it didn’t work out as by god we need a striker who can score!

    We can however be a breeding ground for Canada, Malta, NI and any other forward thinking nation that can genetically tie a player from Saints to their nation!
    **Edit** Zander of course is Greek, tying back to Alexander the Great, and literally means defender of men. He'd have to oust Odysseas Vlachodimos though, but a solid number 2.

    Scotland squad: Goalkeepers: Craig Gordon (Hearts), Jon McLaughlin (Rangers), Liam Kelly (Motherwell).
    No Zander what a disgrace. Easily the best keeper in Scotland but He picks his favourite Gordon He selects McLaughlin just to have Rangers players in the squad, he does not even play regularly, he did the same with their full back last season. He choses Kelly not a patch on Zander.
    Zander should tell him where to go if he comes crawling back. It almost put you off supporting Scotland

    Absolutely mad. The in form keeper in scotland. Still the right side of 30(just). Could have years ahead of him as a Scotland keeper, and yet they go for a mediocre rangers second/third choice. What a disgrace.

    Griffiths is a sad sad person who seems to have issues and who, so far as I can tell, does absolutely nothing to help himself.  He knew exactly what he was doing when he walked over to kick that flare towards the stand, a view shared by a number of Dundee fans  who now want to see the back of him.  He is on a slippery slope and it is not going to be pleasant to watch his demise, 
    The guy who threw the flare just did something daft in the heat of the moment but to me it was very unpleasant to hear a group of Saints' fans hurling vile abuse at Griffiths which had nothing to do with football.  We should leave that sort of thing to the fans of clubs who are often mocked on here for just that sort of behaviour.

    Article in Daily Record re Jason Kerr where he said:
    "It was important for me that St Johnstone got a good fee for me.  I was never going to force a move.  I'm glad they got money they can use."
    "It wouldn't have felt right going to another Scottish club, I couldn't have done that to St Johnstone after all the success we had.  St Johnstone is all I've known - its my club"
     
    Well said young man and you will be welcome back anytime.
