Dr Christmas Jones Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 Fvck me, if Midge was scoring, and doing what he does best for the team do you think he would still be with us. He runs his heart out,breaking up play and always available for a pass.If he was also scoring goals from midfield he would be playing Championship/Premiership football. Some folk need to get a grip.

Dr Christmas Jones Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 Im hoping our strikers can score more goals than our holding midfielder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie_Beatson Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 Im hoping our strikers can score more goals than our holding midfielder He's only ever played maybe a dozen games in a central role. I agree with what you say his positives are though. The negative for me, however, is his pass completion, which is chronic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOODLUM65 Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 Do they pit the fitba news on Page 3 noo a days ?? Naw your thinking of a pair o' strikers. This thread is about an on loan winger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pish....I agree he has his attributes (as I said previously)....but 3, yes 3 assists is woeful.....no matter what position you play. There are probably goalies out there with more.

Edstar101 Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Robbo has scored more , probably has more assists , but i know which midfielder i would rather have in my team . Don't get me wrong, I am not saying that Midge doesn't do a job or that I think he is a total waste of space. He is a great wee player for us, but for somebody of his ability, those stats are poor. It's not even that he is a sitting midfielder, it's just he seems to get a nosebleed when he reaches about 20yards from the opposition goal. As long as the forwards and other midfielders are scoring, having a player like him is okay. When your team needs goals or the forwards are getting little service, then it is a concern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al C Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 In total he's scored six goals in about 130 appearances for Saints. Three in the cups (2 against lower league teams) and three in the league, and none in 85 games. Is that just SPL games? He scored a couple in the first division from memory, definitely one against QOTS away anyway in 3-3 draw towards end of our massive unbeaten run. According to Soccernet he's only provided three assists in the last three seasons as well. I'm not going to pretend his stats will make fantastic reading but don't think Soccernet can be relied upon as gospel, certainly for assists. Assists are not generally recorded other than for Fantasy Football purposes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al C Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 He scored against Brechin in the Quarter final of the Scottish Cup. That can't be far off 2 years ago now. Kissed the badge after doing it too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think he is a great player to have in your squad, but not starting every week. The lack of end product of any kind is so frustrating. stanley saint 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave mc Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Didn't he get an assist when he played in vine for winner v killie? I'd say it was,he beat a couple of players,then slipped it to Vine,although Vine took a touch first,so that maybe discounts the assist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
