ex-montrosesaintee Posted August 27, 2019 Report Share Posted August 27, 2019 Got excited when I saw new social media posts from the club today. Christmas lunches. **** me. Priorities clearly in order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cagerf Posted August 27, 2019 Report Share Posted August 27, 2019 Tommy’s email I have highlighted a bit about transfers this week. Wonder what it means? Dear Neil, It was another great away day at Easter Road on Saturday and another late goal for the travelling fans to celebrate. I think we were more than good value for the point and actually deserved to win the game based on our performance overall. To go away from home and dominate possession and create more chances than the opposition was really pleasing. Once again we showed great character to keep going right to the end after twice going behind. Of course there are things we can do better but I was really pleased with the performances of all my players. It's set down a marker now and I want to see the players build on that and continue to improve. I know what they are capable of and the squad should take confidence from the weekend's performance. The backing from the away supporters at Easter Road was first class and it definitely helped the players on the pitch. We need to bring that performance back home against Kilmarnock on Saturday and hopefully the fans will do the same and get behind us right from the first whistle. I'd also like to address the reports in the press over the past few days regarding Richard Foster. There was an incident in training which has been reported to the Club and the matter is being dealt with internally. In an ideal world these things don't get out but with the way social media is these days it can happen. Once the matter is resolved I'm sure there will be an official statement from the Club but until then I won't be commenting on it further. We're in the final week of the transfer window and hopefully it's going to be a busy one. I know there has been frustration about the lack of signings but we haven't been idle. We've been working hard all summer and the Chairman and I continue to do so. I fully expect there to be some movement this week to add to our already strong squad as we look to build on the progress that we made last season. Thank you all for your continued support - see you on Saturday! Best wishes, Tommy Wright St. Johnstone Manager south inch 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

541ntees Posted August 27, 2019 Report Share Posted August 27, 2019 I’m confused as to why foster would want to be 2nd choice rob at killing? so after this incident are we now needing a stevie may a Chris millar a goran stanic and a Dave mackay tommy did say it would be a busy week ahead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder what it means? r Excellent letter. That word "hopefully" again but I like "I fully expect". Also encouraging is the fact that the transfer references are all in the plural.

Linky Posted August 27, 2019 Report Share Posted August 27, 2019 People keep talking about Naismith. I can't see why he'd join us, considering he's a regular at Peterborough Utd. , their Vice-Captain, and be on a wage we couldn't compete with. There are one or two right-backs without a club at the moment who might be of interest: Alan Hutton, Adam Matthews, Paul Caddis... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Posted August 27, 2019 Report Share Posted August 27, 2019 Not denying that we need a couple of new players in but one of the biggest problems we have had going back to last season is a lack of confidence. As fans we can help with that, cheer the boys on. We've not signed our star striker but we've still scored 4 in 2. Far from the doom and gloom we maybe expected.

I'd guess Caddis is the only affordable one there, the other two will have been earning over £10k a week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very much depends on what they've got on the table just now though doesn't it. Someone or something is only worth what people are willing to pay for it. I'm surprised Hutton hasn't got something lined up already- he was still well liked by the Villa fans and although very much at the end of his career I reckon someone in the lower English leagues would get a good season out of him.

True, but depending on family ties and concern about going the whole season without a club, it’s always possible for players to decide to take a big wage cut at this stage. If I’m honest, given the time we take to sort deals, I’m expecting May, Holt on loan and that’s it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Paul Posted August 28, 2019 Report Share Posted August 28, 2019 I thought that Bulletproof was only at McDiarmid on a Tuesday and a Friday. Why are people expecting signings out with these days ? No rumours of potential signings at McDiarmid yesterday, so I am not expecting any further news until Friday.
