Cagey Posted December 28, 2019 Report Share Posted December 28, 2019 2 hours ago, R.B.B:- Adz said: Absolutely but I think both are young and level headed enough to realise that one more season at Saints where they are pretty much the first names on the team sheet will bring longer term benefits - especially with Kennedy now in the Northern Ireland squad which he values very highly. We can’t compete with Aberdeen or pretty much any English team above the conference but we can still make our top earners offers that aren’t to be sniffed at. If Tommy wants to finish the rebuilding job he has started then keeping guys like Holt and Kennedy is important. Not concerned about losing Holt as he would command a decent wage & not convinced we couldn't get better. Maybe even an opportunity for another McCann to come through.

I think Tommy still see’s him as an important part of the squad and I can’t see who would offer him a contract on decent wages anyway. We must move Callaghan and Vihmann on if we want to resign Holt and Kennedy. Danny hasn't even been in the squad the last few games so doubt if he has a future with Saints.

Jad Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 Think Danny will be let go. Disappointed with that but Tommy hasn't had him even on the subs list for ages. I know that this time of year isn't great for Danny, anniversary of his best pals death etc . If you look back at the game where Stevie scored it was Danny's ability to see Stevies run & his perfectly weighted threaded through pass that helped get that goal. He has ability but sadly isn't getting a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cagey Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 Think we should loan out May to Alloa or Dumbarton in the hope that he can find some confidence ,goal scoring form & fitness. Abernethy Saint 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, let's loan out our third highest scorer, and second highest scoring striker, to a part time side in the 3rd tier. A tremendous idea. blueheaven 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not trying to justify anything, I'm saying we're a team who barely score, so sending our third best goalscorer out on loan to the third tier to play against sides like Clyde is an absolutely mental idea.

Rob Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 Personally I dont think we have a single player that is better than our level. Not meaning this as a negative. I would think the reason they play for us is because our level (lets be generous and say mid table premiership team with a modest budget) aligns with their abilities. I would think any team at a higher level thinking about signing any of our players must be thinking of them as squad players. Half our team has played for bigger clubs but have found their level with Saints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, well put, we have a classic saints team right now. a) Few up and commer/youngun's who we will sell or lose due to wages b) some past players back, as they know we have a good system and they will get to play c) a bunch of squad players that generally operate well at our level, but not higher. Depending on the rub of the green, we can come 5th/6th or bounce near the bottom. Wright generally is doing a good job with a scarcity of resources across the board. Broons won't take the club any higher than this....its who we are right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havana Saint Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 If it wasn't for Hendry scoring goals I would be more concerned. Kane and May are really struggling to find the net. That shot from May today from outside the box was just bizarre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end, the first time shot almost looked like it was in slow motion. It was so weak. Honestly, I used to have dreams where I playing football but I could never connect with a ball properly and it would go trundling off my foot every time. Stevie May is a living embodiment of that dream right now. garydavidson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cristo Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 Are the Holt and Ralston loans over now or are they til the end of the season? Both have improved greatly with each game and will have a huge part to play in the next stage of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy Posted December 30, 2019 Report Share Posted December 30, 2019 With the knowledge that, one way or another, Swansons wage is off the books come May, we'll surely be wise to move some of that towards Kennedy. tucker and Havana Saint 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
