    Most clubs with decent youth academies never get to 7 youngsters in their first team at the same time because some are so good they get sold...
    Over a decade in charge and Longwell has brought in the square root of f**k all in transfer fees.
    Its been an unmitigated disaster.

    There is no doubt that this is a direct result of the BOD appointing TC.
    However I'm not so sure GT is the answer. The 10 men argument doesn't stand up for yesterday we had 11 men for 70 plus minutes and never threatened Samson's goal.
    We need fresh blood and new ideas.

    Ironic that Killie's clincher today was scored by one of the young boys who Longwell let go!
    Let's get in a proper head of youth development as well as a new manager.

    No, I don't think they have read it Stuart.
    St. Mirren have offered way more than 51% of the shares in the club in the 3 previous share issues.
    The fans had the opportunity to buy into the club then - and the club was on its knees at the first share issue.
    But every time, the fans ignored the share issues. They just weren't interested.
    God knows why anyone thinks this would be any different.

    For me, what makes this goal extra special is the fact that the boy deftly won the ball in midfield himself before starting the run.
    What happened after that is good but the ball winning makes it extra special.
    Definitely up there for me.
    The likes of Scanlon & Beckett's goals were spectacular and are also remembered for winning us games against C*ltic.
    But I like the goals where the player beats a few guys before scoring, eg Mallan's goal and Yardley at Cappielow. As mentioned by someone else, Scanlon did this on more than one occasion.
    For me though, the 'Bone on his own' goal is also a belter as he also runs from his own half, outpacing what is arguably the greatest ever defence in Scottish football history, before slotting it away. I'm pretty sure that win 'goal of the season'.

    That was a great goal in a great game.
    But Scanlon scored many great goals as he was very capable of a mazy run and finishing with a curling shot
    He done it time and time again
    On the other hand i witnessed a last minute winner against the deceased club where a player went on a mazy run and finished with aplomb.
    Totally out of character as he was mostly rotten

    John Sutton's winner against Motherwell in THAT game was a thing of sheer beauty. He's running backwards, out of the box as he hits it flush on the volley.
    Nothing touched young Stevie's goal though. I've probably clocked about 2,500 youtube views of it on my tod!

    If Longwell gets the gig as assistant manager then we may as well shup up shop now. That would be a complete joke.

    I've only been to one game and to be perfectly honest I don't care too much either way whether Teale gets the job or not, but where your argument loses credibility is when you talk about St Mirren playing superbly against Motherwell and where you talk of a good performance against Celtic whilst saying Celtic could have scored 10.
    A good manager should be able to set up their side to defend well, as well as attack. It may just be that the club really does need new defenders but Teale still hasn't managed a single shut out in three games. In the Motherwell game, I think you are getting carried away. It was a spirited performance from 10 men against the third worst side in the division but for all that St Mirren didn't really threaten - offside goal apart - whilst at the other end McGinn fell asleep and McAusland, again, lost Sutton in the six yard box.
    Jury is out.

    Folks are questioning why we offloaded the sublime talent that is Harkins.
    Yet how shite was he with us?
    I am not prepared to judge Ball or Caldwell on what has passed as they were on a hiding to nothing playing up front for Craigs team.
    Too early to cut loose potential.
