He wants to stay, Callum wants to keep him, but the money just isn’t there to offer him acceptable(in his eyes) terms. To be fair looking at how Callum likes to set up he is a bit part player at best so never going to get the big wage. I can’t really see him being a 90 minute striker anywhere to be honest a good finisher yes but needs a particular team set up to work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t really see him being a 90 minute striker anywhere to be honest a good finisher yes but needs a particular team set up to work Have to agree. I really like Melamed and he's given us some great moments in his short time at the club, but Callum's biggest successes have all come from high energy, fitness and pressing - that's just not Melamed's game. I wouldn't be at all surprised to see Melamed go somewhere else and score a bucket-load of goals, and I'll be delighted for him if he does. I just hope he doesn't do it for one of our rivals. skivealive 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny B Posted May 28, 2021 Report Share Posted May 28, 2021 He will score, he netted 5 goals in 18 appearances good average for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

south inch Posted May 28, 2021 Report Share Posted May 28, 2021 21 hours ago, garydavidson said: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/57268896 Rival clubs will have to break St Johnstone's transfer record to prise midfielder Ali McCann from the double cup winners, chairman Steve Brown says. Brown also insists that Callum Davidson, the current manager for whom Blackburn Rovers paid a record £1.75m in 1998, is "happy" at McDiarmid Park. Saints' chairman admits there has already been interest in the players who won the Scottish and League cups. "If Ali is going to go, it will be north of that figure," Brown says. "There's been interest - Ali in particular, a Northern Ireland international. If the right offer comes along and a player wants to leave, which is another thing you have to take into consideration, then we will sell, but it will be at a price we are happy with." Excellent from Steve, Hootsmon suggesting interest in Ali is from Celtic. This might point to him being a Celtic fan, he certainly gets abuse on the Rangers* fan forums. We all know how the OF work, in will come a derisory offer followed by another offer with an extra bag of sweeties added or some dud they are trying to get rid off. Meantime they hope to unsettle the target. Steve is doing the right thing warning them off before they even start their nonsense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will be open to being poached in the Dec/Jan transfer window. Saints need to urgently secure their assets by extending their contracts. Of the out of contract players and looking to the future , ( from who I've seen ), albeit from about 2 years ago , Ballantyne , Hamilton and Northcott possibly could get their contracts renewed. Not seen Steele , Robertson looked like he could make the grade , thereagain haven't seen for a while. Think their was a bit of a fallout about his attitude, which hopefully has changed . The rest is anyone's guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy Posted May 28, 2021 Report Share Posted May 28, 2021 Yeah article with Davidson up. Conway is leaving. MOH "close" to signing a new deal, offers made to Tanser and Brown.

rik2304 Posted May 28, 2021 Report Share Posted May 28, 2021 Can't have any complaints about the input from Conway. Involved in some very important goals and wish him luck with whatever happens next. I'd give MOH another year to see if he can build on the bit of form he was finding towards the end of the season. Booth is our first choice IMO and Tanser should be offered a deal accordingly if Callum sees fit. But I am not a fan.

Tanser would solve the problem we have with cover, as Brown. Not a massive fan of either, but on the basis we know what they offer, they're relatively risk free. I'd imagine Saints have offered them a fairly low-ish wage, 1yr deals. Tanser's injury puts any move away very much in the balance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which I am sure he will get elsewhere in this league. If he is close it will down to salary (possibly less money) and as I said 2 or 3 year contract will not be 1 year.

Saintdunc Posted May 29, 2021 Report Share Posted May 29, 2021 Conway served the club well in his time with Saints and is a League Cup winner. He scored some goals as well. Part of a legendary side, but part or no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cagey Posted May 29, 2021 Report Share Posted May 29, 2021 Conway played his part in our great season. Not surprised he was allowed to leave as his lack of pace was negating his effectiveness. Hope he gets a decent guy down south. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mainstand Posted May 29, 2021 Report Share Posted May 29, 2021 Interesting to see if Paul Sheerin tries to get anyone from Pert as his assistant at Falkirk.

Saints11 Posted May 30, 2021 Report Share Posted May 30, 2021 Great to see Ali scoring tonight for N Ireland. Just adds to the price tag should he see his future elsewhere next season. I hope he stays but I’m realistic enough to realise that should the “right” offer come along he may well be away. Just hope Saints are strong enough to tell either of the ugly sisters where to go if they make their usual petty offer Johnny B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both fit the system we play and I'd be happy to see them both back next year but part of me thinks we need to keep it fresh and get 2/3 in and out every summer just to get new faces in.

Brian Potter Posted May 31, 2021 Report Share Posted May 31, 2021 Hate to say it but the time is definitely right to be selling McCann. Double winner, NI regular, unofficial YPOTY. His stock can’t get any higher with us. £2.5 million plus sell on, international caps, promotion to Prem etc... Would be a massive deal for the club.
