Hopefully still hiring....

Early days.

Had hoped Offord would look the part today.

Scary signs even allowing for the fact it's vert early days for this squad.

Arbroath competently adopting the Premier division side role in our group.

Shame. I think with Gocic in the team we look like a side that will stay in this division. Whereas without him we look like relegation favourites.

Given the hype £125k looks weirdly low. Has to be something else going on. Maybe it's a new approach designed to cash in on sell ons. For years our top academy talent have decided to run down their contracts and Saints never really get to cash in. Celtic are good at getting multi million pound offers for their players - a 30% or more cut of a sell on fee might be the only way for us to ever secure a 7 figure sum for a player. The flip side is that we have just rolled over and the Old Firm have got back to picking off talent on the cheap as they can stick them in their Colts teams.

St Mirren need to lose the "perpetually skint" image. Pointless having a nice stadium, great training facilities etc if players and agents see us as a financial basket case. Better to be known as well run and a Club that looks after our employees.

Wondering if this is the year we move on long rumoured targets - Scott Allan and Mikey Johnstone.

Pfffttt tactics .......

Melon.

He is younger than I thought. Would prefer Stevie Mallon and Gogic.

Very worrying.

Based on his work at Motherwell he looked a decent if uninspiring appointment. However, he seems to have made half our team turn off and stop trying which might be due to contracts ending but the 3 at the back stuff is unfathomable. 4-4-2 with Main benched and we have a slim chance of staying up.

No probs bud. This team have my balls on permanent standy by for a firm booting. 🏳

Thanks you for small mercies.

Saints doing just enough to get beat every week.

Is it impossible to finish bottom?

Entirely expected outcome.

Inevitable and inexorable slide into the Championship.

Inflation.

Ha Ha. Hitler apart. Remember the context is previous St Mirren managers and we have had some howlers. This dude is still safely better than the relatively recent appointments of Messrs Stubbs, Craig etc. Shaky not yet catastrophic.

Are we up for a scrap? This team looks very similar to last season's gutless Kilmarnock - maybe worse as we dont have a goal scoring centre forward. We have flattered to deceive. We have too many players out of contract at the end of the season , others prematurely told they will be let go and as a result half the team now not giving a shit. Add to the mix a new manager who has got off to a shaky start. Worrying times ahead and another very tense finish to the season.

Oran Kearney different gravy to that shower.

Better spell for Saints.
