In my opinion the only goalie since Campbell Money you could argue a case for would be Ludo Roy and I always thought he was a wee bit overrated. Ludo would probably still shade it for me though. Thomson, Gallacher and Kello for the short time he was with us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn’t putting Thomson as being since Money. Money was here well after Thomson. No way did Kello do enough to be considered better than Sammy, but Paul Gallacher is a good shout. I’d temporarily forgotten about him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hambud Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 Thomson, Gallacher and Kello for the short time he was with us. Kello's first period with us was good then we re-signed him amid rumours he was having to retire due to injury. On the form he showed after re-signing he should have retired.

Bud the Baker Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 Samson just shades it over Gallacher for me, both made it to the fringes of the Scotland squad. To find a better keeper you'd have to go back to the last millennium and the undervalued (at international level anyway) Campbell Money and the erratic but brilliant on his day Silly Billy Thomson. How wrong was this thread? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How wrong was this thread? Don’t disagree with your post but a bit harsh to say Gallacher got to the fringes of the Scotland squad. He got 8 full caps and was a consistent squad member for a good few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shull Posted April 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 Danny Stevenson was the best. Jim Gilmour was the second worst, just slightly more assured than Samson who will most certainly be freed at the end of the Season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigerian Panda Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 For me it’s either Money or Thomson .... before that you could say Donald Hunter was good enough to get us into the top division. Go back further then you have the arse hole who was past his best Jim Herriot ... before him big Denis who to be fair was good enough to play with Septic until he threw the ball into his own net! Others that have been in the sticks are decent enough we have had a few clowns and a few gems .. Les Fridge for his size was a good keeper and big Ludo was good enough until his head ruled his hands and he thought he was better than he really was! Samson for me is up there along with Billy and Campbell. Great save yesterday and he has produced some fine ones at times needed that shows what a keeper is all about. LC winner 2013 says it all! He got us there and lifted the Cup! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will continue to post whether he is here or not. You're getting obsessed. My opinion is he is not a great goalie. The Masses disagree. So feck. There has been lots of St Mirren players who have been poor. Again, so feck. Just an opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ged62 Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 Samson been great IMO. Did anyone else see the incident yesterday with him & McKenzie? I thought they were about to have a go at each other, both put their heads together, I was waiting for the head butt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shull Posted April 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 Thorburn and Connaghan were my first and they were decent. Herriot was poor. Billy McGann was around at the same time, he was short but competent. Then along came Danny Stevenson. He was great. Since then, we have not had many brilliant goalies but quite a few not very good. Alan McCulloch was shit hot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Posted April 15, 2018 Report Share Posted April 15, 2018 What a goalie big Sammy is. Joins that rare group of players who have won two trophies with the club. A place in the Hall of Fame is an inevitability now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
