I bet TC is delighted to get a pay off and be shot of this job.

I'd like to see us bring back Gus Macpherson.
Seriously.

We could maybe get them if we sold a few more premium bonds?
(PS - note - this is also a stupid question... )

They don't need to pay him off. They can put him on garden leave.
Yet another very angry and lengthy post that is total nonsense.

TC and previous managers get the blame for failing to find us players in the key positions of centre half and striker but if the youth system was working properly then the managers wouldn't need to.
Over a decade of Longwell in charge and he's failed to find a centre half or a striker or indeed a single player that has gained us a transfer fee.
Yes, Tommy Craig should go.
But so should David Longwell.

Totally agree windae cleaner.

Both Craig & Longwell need to go.

There's no scouting system i see of
Picking up old firm rejects seems to be the way
You the one who slag the wee boys you say that run the younger teams
When i see plenty of our ex players involved with P&D teams
Ricky Gillies,Barry McLaughlin and Iain Nicholson spring to mind
Would be better if they were involved in our youth system

We sat 29th in Scottish football in the Cunningham era, the equivalent of sitting in the bottom half of the current third tier. Gates were down to closer to 1,000.
So we're not quite there yet...
Difference between then and now though is that our youth system / scouts found us quality players. That Cunningham side contained Bobby Reid, Bobby McKean and Tony Fitzpatrick. Prior to that we had sold Gordon McQueen, Ally McLeod & Iain Munro and after Cunningham left the scouts brought us Billy Stark, Frank McGarvey & Lex Richardson. Maybe only John McGinn comes close to that.
We are crying out for a quality centre half and a goalscoring striker. After more than a decade, why hasn't our much vaunted youth system delivered these players?

I have no managerial experience, no coaching badges to my name, very little tactical awareness, but even I fancy that I could do a better job than Tommy Craig as St Mirren manager. I'll happily give it a bash for £50k a year, as I think I could get more out of a squad with 5 current and former Scotland U21 players and 2 ex-Scotland internationalists, 75% of home games where we don't score, 0% clean sheets, 50% of league games where we have 2 shots or less on target, 73% of league games lost games.
Yours
Dibble

Yes, he did.
Which is what prompted his latest long winded angry response that no-one will read! :

Thank fuck the BoD DIDN'T sell to the fans!
The lunatics would have taken over the asylum!
I hope to god that St. Mirren never suffers from fan ownership.

What does the price of oil matter?
an independent Scottish government would just have covered it by selling premium bonds to grannies!

I remember the majority of Falkirk fans told us that Michael Higdon was shite.
And then the majority of St. Mirren fans told the Motherwell fans that Higdon was shite.
The guy who sat behind me in the main stand every week in Higdon's last season was continually banging on about how shite Higdon was.
The fact is that most football fans are clueless and haven't got a clue what they are watching.

The main Beath player being Darren McGregor... how we could do with him in the side just now.
And Michael Higdon up front...
Is it not a centre half and a goalscorer that we're currently missing?

The worry I have is our manager might weaken the team further in the transfer market. Just look at the quality he has brought in so far.

Stronger looking line up today with McGinn, Thompson & Osbourne back, albeit all 3 are just back from injury.
Why did we waste a wage - and probably a big wage at that - on giving Gary Teale another contract.
Surely that wage would have been better spent on giving a contract to, say David Clarkson?...

what a load of childish, pathetic nonsense maybe you need to get a new hobby and visit a different forum

getting yourself into this state over someone having an opinion about football is just stupid
you need anger management therapy oaksoft
