Honest Saints Fan Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 Shoddy signing. It reeks of panic. And if he does well, he then goes back to one of our biggest rivals with a huge confidence boost. Pretty sure he is out of contract at end of the season.

The Real Saints Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 Doesn't stop United from promising him more first-team football and offering him an extension if he is a success at Saints.. I don't want to be negative. I just have a few United-supporting mates who have roundly slated him all season for being a liability. I'm scared to face them now.

mainstand Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 TTT how many times have you actually seen the guy? Still waiting on you actually coming up with any actual suggestions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PauloPerth Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 Also underwhelmed, never rated him at united and neither did utd fans. Didn't think it was a target man type we were after.. Thought it would be a pacey player who can feed off Maclean and get in behind and hopefully notch a few. Though if he's come in to give a different option from the bench like big chris and fallon were intended for, then fair enough. As Rik hinted at above, maybe the game plan is to be a major threat from crosses, with lappin added to croft and spoony who both put in quality deliveries, we might see a lot of that over the next few months. All the best to him, hope he does well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's going out on loan because they don't want to play him. He supposedly has had a great pre-season. The United fans on Pie and Bovril don't seem to be slating him, in fact they think he hasn't been given a chance due to being dropped to the bench so often. The fact folk are comparing him to Fallon is hilarious. He is nothing like Fallon. It is not a panic buy, Wright has wanted Graham for sometime.

Honest Saints Fan Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 Hopefully this signals Kane going out on loan for a whole season now. That would be smashing for his development and benefit both him and Saints in the long run! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep the money for a rainy day He's played against Saints four times in his career. Probably for a combined total of 100 minutes. 90 of those minutes you probably weren't even at the game.

franco Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 I don't see Graham as being a first choice player, instead i see him as an option to throw on if we are chasing a game so we can 'lump' it up to him. In that respect I think it is a decent striker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete1967 Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 How much is it going to cost saints in wages with graham being here on loan aswell as adam morgans loan compaired to signing a player permantly like ayina or deekman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jad Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 Not exactly brimming with confidence over this one. He has been pretty hopeless at Utd , this could be down to several factors including not getting a run in the 1st team. He did seem to score pretty well at Raith when he was there but this has not been the case at Tannadice. Just hope that a fresh start is what he needs and that Tommy can get the best out of him. My United other half has hardly stopped grinding since the news broke and previously had offered to pay his taxi fare to Perth ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inchcolm Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 Not good enough to get a game with UTD but good enough to for us! Do'nt think so. I know TW can work miracles but in my opinion even this is beyond his capabilities. So why did we take him on loan? It is because we dillied and dallied and he be the best of whats left out there. We need a targetman to allow McLean to move back into the link role. Come on TW prove us all wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TommyTurnersTache Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 So we don't sign a player on trial based on one dire performance but we do sign a player who has been dire for several seasons instead.

Honest Saints Fan Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 Didn't realise scoring 29 goals for Raith in 50 odd appearances was dire. Does that mean May was dire whilst at Hamilton and Alloa? The ghost of Jim Morton and craiginasaintsstrip 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommyTurnersTache Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 (edited) Lower league football in Scotland is ****in dire. Tart it up however you want, Kenny deuchar scored 800 goals in 200 games in lower leagues, went well for him at the top level didn't it Edited August 27, 2014 by TommyTurnersTache Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honest Saints Fan Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 Yes Kemny Deuchar was successful whilst playing for Saints in the Premier League. Did indeed go well for him. garydavidson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St Mikey Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 My pal is a Rovers fan and would love him back there. He has a cult status there scoring every week. I'd have rather kept playing Kane but if Kane goes out to a championship club for a loan period for the season it will help us next season.

Denzil Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 The missus is an Arab ST holder and says he's Championship standard. That's good enough for me. What the hell are we signing him on loan for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St Mikey Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 For all we know Deekman might have been utter mince last night. Graham is a different option. Still young and has a point to prove. Also,he obviously wants to be here so he gets my support. Lappin crosses! Graham scores! COYS! Someone told me Deekman was awful last night, hence no further forward with him.
