saint michael

I hope he stays for the Celtic game at the weekend 😂

Is that their window of opportunity

Isn’t Cairney out of contract there too? Haven’t seen him for a while but strong and good leadership

It has zero impact what the fans think so they will continue to do whatever they like with our club. This club is almost unrecognisable for me. look at how the fans at Rangers are reacting to Martin after just a few games. We all knew the same continuous promises of jam tomorrow. If Solak is so upset as we heard about on the pitch performance why is he not stepping in now because the same is happening with this new mgmt team

Look at the out of contract players. Could make a decent side out of them. Offer short term contracts and spend a year truly investing in future team

So just to sum up. We have known we are down for months, Spors has been identified as the messiah that will turn around recruitment and many changes were mentioned and so far we have signed quarshie, Long and Downs…. But do not worry there is still a week to go where all the fantastic signings are coming in and the type of player we will sign is not reflected by those signed so far….hmmmm

So he has studied the english market now for 6months and George Long was the answer to the gk question… thank goodness we have such razor sharp minds on our recruitment

Because it gives Spors more money to waste (😂 probably should add this )

Would be hard pushed to do worse

I would settle for 1 first team gk

It feels like to me that the commercial aspect of the club is overriding everything else. I know it’s always been in background and so it should but now drives the outcome: question order feels like 1. Position needed 2. list players with possible potential and more importantly resale value 3. Align fit with what we want to pay 4. check on availability and salary with agent 5. Put in low offer to test out and see who on list becomes real possibility 6. Buy the one we can All fine if we have a stable core to the team, but unless experience comes within £ target we buy without. We do have exceptions like Ramsdale but that feels like a desperate last step to go in this direction and not really aligned to their approach

Agree and maybe we send the board with them as they seem as thick. Good bonding exercise

I don’t think Still would be here if he didn’t control team and shape. He clearly is starting to recognise how poor the team is at doing anything right, and that they seem to have an inability to learn from what I see. Biggest problem for me is that we continue to think we are geniuses in who's being targeted and bought. There seems to be a real inability to learn on this front too as we continue to buy players for a future that never arrives

What part of Downs game gives you hope so far?

But if that’s happening Downs says to Manning….get the fucking ball in mate…don’t just carry on doing it

Shouldn’t be impossible though CC. Think we all look for crumbs in the hope of improvement. Cant fault the loyalty and resilience.

The guy is shocking he walks around, doesn’t understand a strikers movement fish out of water. Thank goodness we didn’t pay much for him

We’ve got the clowns we could go full circus

He picks the team and he trains and coaches them. He is culpable of how we play and results. Playing Armstrong as centre striker as an example is same shit different manager

Yeah I agree. It worked well at wolves until they walked away from it. I don’t think this window can make the difference it needs. As you said, the slide is well and truly on

I just don’t trust they know who to buy. This insistence on buying players like Downs who they think they will make money on without considering how good they are NOW. Rome is burning

This is not going to be pretty against the blue mob

Seriously. How much has this team cost us.

They have all week to practice breaking down a defence and how to defend as a unit and still they can’t do it. Shows where the problem is

It’s soooo depressing watching saints these days. Oh I yearn for some normal footballers. This team is absolutely useless. Same old story crap gk and defence. A midfield who can’t create and insist on passing it back to the Cb or Fb and then forwards who don’t run or shoot or read the game.
