double deluxe Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Cheers, Kyle. Would be surprised to see Steve Banks not offered a new deal, player/coach or just coach. The young goalkeepers at the club seem to like him (based on interviews with Ross) and learn a lot from him. Agree with TRS re Gary Miller - would definitely offer him a new deal if he's fine remaining second choice. At this stage of his career he may look to move on though.

Kyle Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Press and Journal are reporting that we have signed Joe Shaughnessy from Aberdeen. 22 year old defender, can play right back or centre back. I assume that could mean the end of Gary Miller or Frazer Wright... possibly both when you look at the other options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cristo Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Just seen this on Twitter, more of a full back than centre is he not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Just seen this on Twitter, more of a full back than centre is he not? Aberdeen fans are saying he's too slow to be a full back and too weak to be a centre back! He actually fits the description of Scobbie in a lot of ways to be honest. Jim Spence reporting it's a two year deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ex-montrosesaintee Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Good player IMO, at both FB and CH. Pleased with this signing. Takes a decent long throw too, and considering how awful we are from throw-ins, that's a major positive. Dave Ferg 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abernethy Saint Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Would we take Nigel back? I would, if he could accept an impact sub role. The Real Saints 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume that could mean the end of Gary Miller or Frazer Wright... possibly both when you look at the other options. Interesting...can Brad McKay not play right back also? If so, you would think Miller might be on his way. Not sure about Wright, I thought the new guys coming in were more right sided. If Cleland is up for the Raith job, perhaps Wright can be convinced to sign up as player/coach? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PerthSeany Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 (edited) Would we take Nigel back? I would, if he could accept an impact sub role. I'd take him back. I was at times critical of his work ethic which won't ever change but with the ball at his feet he can give something a bit different. That something I think we need!

PerthSeany Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 younger Doesn't mean better though. I don't know much about him though. Miller isn't exactly an old unfit guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair Man 67 Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 I'd say that Joe Shaugh is a potentially superb signing for the saintees. As a Dons fan, I'd say that he was more than a little unlucky to be let go by DM. I reckon, having watched his development from a youngster, that he is undoubtedly best used in his natural position in the centre of defence. I don't often recall him letting us down in the first team. Does occasionally get turned a bit at right back but hey, so does Shay Logan. Stick my neck out and say that his signing is a real coup for St Johnstone and think he may have many successful years in Perth. Wish him the best of good luck, anyway. jhq, Coltrane, Pictdownunder and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rik2304 Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 I'm happy with the signing. Young and hopefully with a point to prove. I'm also happy that we are doing some early business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qwerty Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Could be wrong but I think I remember there was huge focus on shaughnessy when he first broke into the aberdeen team, a lot of people were talking him up as the next big thing, seems to have lost his way a little bit but I think will be a good signing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
