Or offer a manager a long-term deal.
The utter negative drivel people actually post, and believe, is astonishing. 

"We have protected the club and managed to get a good fee for Jay with a potential sell-on. We thank Jay for his service to St Mirren and wish him the best in his future career." 
Quote from the manager, a good fee, seems a fair statement to make and no need to go into detail.

Someone tried the Calum Waters thing on me 2 years ago and I bit like f**k and went off on one.
 
Fool me once... 

I thought a lot of them looked guff, Strain looked well off it and now look at him, key player and gets better every week.
Let’s see how this guy is once he is up to speed mate.

He’s injured and he’s hardly had a chance, the whole team were shite at the start of the season during the league cup group stage so it’s a bit premature to write this guy off just yet.

SR & DO 
FECKING WOW

McDonald is done and McNulty is absolutely woeful. 
 
Thankfully the days of scraping the barrel with players like that look to be over.

Mate. f**k off.

I disagree, if good people don’t call out bad behaviour then society is f**ked. Publicly denigrating a young football player because you don’t think he is very good is deserving of the ex Coventry dwelling fans comment.

@Sue Denim you're a f**king idiot.

Is Sue Denim the biggest twat to post on black and white army?

Great listen.

That won't be enough to win the league, sort yer numbers oot.

Aberdeen are so money now they're even paying our transfer fees for us. Goodwin is some guy.

Calm down 😂
As soon as McGinn was made available by Hibs, he looked to be a good fit for us. Of course he’s due a spot in this thread. I only visit B&WA for the speculation thread these days but it’s posts like this to initiate bickering that make it totally insufferable at times. 

You wouldn't choose rangers would you? So many get lost in their youth set up never to see 1st team football. Chance to go abroad, you would, wouldn't you?

Because the agreement Hibs made with us is that we get a 30% sell on of any transfer fee Hibs get for McGinn. We already made significant money when he went to Villa and another hefty sum when they went up, so we do get a cut of any clauses as well.
It turns out Hibs negotiated in turn a 15% sell on for any profit made on McGinn which means they are obligated to give us almost a third of their 15% sell on. Hibs chairman confirmed as much at their AGM 2 seasons ago.
In addition to this, there is 5% set aside in every transfer in world football for a solidarity fee to be paid to clubs that train a player up and the cut increases as the player develops.
In our case, we trained John from 13 (when the fees start to kick in) until 20 and are due 3.5% of any future transfer fee involving him. Hibs trained him from 21-23 and so are due 1.5%.
So for example, based on say, a £30m transfer, the money would be broken down as follows:
£30m transfer less £3m Villa paid = £27m profit. Hibs take a 15% cut of that £27m = £4.05m Hibs pass 30% of that to SMFC = £1.21m 5% of the 30m transfer is also set aside = £1.5m Hibs get 1.5% of that 5% = £450k We get 3.5% of the 5% = £1.05m Hibs make £3.3m in sell on and developmental fee St. Mirren make £2.25m in sell on and developmental fee  

Think McGinn is Gerrard's cash cow.  Needs money to rebuild his team. 

I think his displays against ROI & Ukraine wiped £20 mill off his value 🙄😂
