fazman1977 Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 Paul Paton could win the club fancy dress competition if he came as David Coulthard.His heed is a perfect square. Shibbydoo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.B.B:- Adz Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 Has he signed yet or did the club u-turn when they found Bev Callard chained to the front door of McDiarmid Park? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smarmy Arab Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 Picture this: our poor form had continued and the rut we found ourselves in had proved too much to over come and we were dragged into a relegation battle this season... No Premiership team would have touched Murray Davidson because he was part of a relegated squad.. If Kilmarnock had failed to beat Falkirk in the play-offs and gone down, would Josh Magennis, Craig Slater and Greg Kiltie be considered unworthy of gracing Mcdiarmid park as they are clearly not good enough for the Premiership... But we did pick up our form, and Kilmarnock did beat Falkirk I hear you say......So, I assume by your logic, Jason Cummings and John McGinn wouldn't have the ability to keep us in the Premiership next season because they were part of a team that COULDNT EVEN MAKE IT, to the heady heights of the Premiership, nevermind being there to get them relegated. Wow! As a general principle, one player should not be held responsible for a relegation, and take it from me, Pates was one of the few with pass marks last season at Tannadice. It was not his fault that we could not hold a lead.......it was not his fault that the manager played a dumbf*ck formation every week......it was not his fault that our strikers missed chances every week......it was not his fault that the chairman is at war with the board/fans/press/his family.......its not his fault that the fans are at war with the chairman/other fans/the board.........its not his fault that the manager signed a clutch of players to pull us out the sh*t, none of whom had any experience of Scottish football. (except Gunning......need I say more!) If anyone has a doubt about Murray Davidson, it would be nothing to do with and imaginary relegation it would be everything to do with his injury record. Your next hypothetical scenario, had Killie been relegated Josh Magennis would not be good enough to grace McD? One of the few SPFL players 'good enough' to grace the Euros....but not good enough for Saints? Same principle, Magennisis is not to blame for Killie having a pysh season. As for the dismissive attitude to Championship players, United picked up GMS from Airdrie, Danny Swanson from Berwick Rangers, Jimmy Gomis from Cowdenbeath, Andy Robertson from Queens Park and more.......but none of them good enough for Saints!

AthensSaint Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 If you are happy in signing Paton who is confirmed at spitting at fellow professional players AND has been arrested and punished as part of a sectarian attack then okay. Makes wee O' Boyle an angel when comparisoning. But if he is an improvement on what we have got and he doesn't threaten the cordial dressing room then why not. Jody Morris got all the same comments and he was an honor to have had as a Saintees. Tough one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jody ended up a huge signing for us and will be remembered for ever. Tough decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bev Callard Posted June 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Hayes said he didn't know if Paton had spat on him not that he didn't . The TV evidence was conclusive. This is very poor judgement from Tommy and Steve. I won't be buying a season ticket if this racist thug signs and I know I'm not alone. I am the voice of the voiceless .

AthensSaint Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Practically every potential signing from TW is accepted as good. Paton is certainly different. Nearly half our support who voted have said they don't want him. That mustbe a first. Bev Callard 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Real Saints Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Jody's quality as a footballer was never in doubt. He had a pretty impressive club history and on-field reputation, albeit tarnished somewhat by his off-field antics. It was clear that he'd almost certainly be a great signing at our level. Therefore, his personal life didn't bother me at all. And I don't recall it dividing our fans to this extent (not just on WAP). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
