No one in right mind that’s good would sign permanently . Yep. I really think we'll end up announcing three or four 20-year-olds on loan from English clubs on the last day of the window, because we can't get anyone else.

Linky Posted January 27, 2022 Report Share Posted January 27, 2022 To be honest, I hope we don't sign anyone else. I don't really want to see Davidson waste any more of the clubs money on useless players. He's going to sign no hopers on long contracts and they'll consign us to the Championship for the next few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gas Monkey Posted January 27, 2022 Report Share Posted January 27, 2022 There are so many things annoying me about Saints just now and here is one of them. Do the fans not get to know why E2 is not getting a game? For him not to be in the squad last night when May and Kane were is truly astounding, without explanation is infuriating. If he’s gash and we made a huge mistake signing him then tell us, it’s our money they are spending! If he can’t get a game ahead of May then we have truly signed someone worse than Adam Morgan and that takes some doing! Its the not knowing........ rickardo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linky Posted January 27, 2022 Report Share Posted January 27, 2022 Ok, we're desperate - ask Hibs for Hallberg, Gogic and Scott Allan. It's a better midfield than we have now. Bryson is out for so long, we might as well cancel his contract. Butterfield can't last a whole game. Craig ditto. MacPherson is bad, and one trapping of the ball against Hearts won't make up for this. Gilmour isn't ready yet. Davidson is still a quality player, but can't do everything himself.

Tricky6 Posted January 27, 2022 Report Share Posted January 27, 2022 Signing more players just to play them out of their position in this stupid formation Callum is determined to stick to is pointless….. Theres a real danger here we could end up like Dunfermline, Falkirk and Partick in recent times…suffering back to back relegations and stuck with a group of players out of their depth, hard to get rid of, who take a wage for next to no return!

Wouldnt say Davidson is a quality player these days but he gives his all and was the only midfielder to win the ball yesterday. Second half McPherson & Butterfield were passengers. In fact it was about 20 mins into second half that I said to mate that I had just remembered he was playing. First half he looked calm on the ball and found passed so it could be tired a bit. Midfield was crying out to be changed ,we have 5 subs and Davidson sat on his hands until replacing striker for striker with 3 mins to go.

Yeah,digging into war chest which will be required as we have missed out on League cup & Scottish cup crowds and we will probably be down over £1 million on league position money.

Only having watched him in the cup game I would say he needs a few more years on loan. Maybe not his best game though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted January 27, 2022 Report Share Posted January 27, 2022 If we have players out on loan and still paying a chunk of wages then probably sensible to recall. Could be more injuries and covid isolation to come this season and as we saw last night with Hendry, if they are capable and eager then why not.

I think they stated previously that budgets are always calculated on 10th place for prize money and going out in first round of cups. You would never budget on getting third or 4th. So budget wise wont be £1m down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is more logical, Max has been head and shoulders above the rest for Brechin this year, but the overall standard is brutal at times. He needs some time at a higher level. Genuine potential though, takes a mean dead ball (except in the televised cup game where his crossing boots took the day off!).

John Bonham Posted January 28, 2022 Report Share Posted January 28, 2022 That’s Hallberg signed. Should be a great addition and it’s another of the top targets in the bag. Had to be patient but brings a lot of what we need to midfield. SaintJet 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
