I thought Hamilton continued to profit from McCarthy and McArthur from transfer deals after they left Wigan , likewise I THINK Barnsley profited considerably from John Stones going from Everton to Man City
-
Good Luck to him should he move on, lets hope we use whatever monies we receive wisely thanks Melmac , with that in mind , it makes sense to move him on , but we could be a bit weak for our cuptie this weekend
-
As a matter of interest , what happens if Jason picks up an injury that will keep him out for a year , Do Ross County have to pay him his basic wage for the next couple of seasons ? If that's the case , it makes total sense to make sure your next few years income are taken care of .

This wouldn,t surprise me , Barnsley are in good financial shape , have sold players for good money in the past , so it would make sense for them to buy a few youngsters in the hope that one or two of them could be sold on for a profit . That used to be the St Mirren way back in the day

Dunfermline V St mirren (14th January)
MenstrieSaint replied to proudtobeabuddy's topic in Matchday & Travel Club
Thinking we will do well today , with fitter faster players coming in , hopefully a fitter faster centre half , a fitter holding midfielder , and a faster striker , also meaning we have better quality on the bench . think I might just make the game today -
Hoping that if Baird's to go , it will be on a loan deal that will involve us getting Callum Waters

Pal Fjelde - Norwegian midfielder/centre half
MenstrieSaint replied to Stu's topic in General St. Mirren Discussion
he looks supurb , just the kind of player we need to link the defence to the midfield , thinking I might make the game tomorrow -
he must have played in just about all of Dumbartons games this season , he,s relatively young , and getting a second chance of full time football , so I,m expecting a hard working strong running player , who could maybe come on as a sub , when the midfield is tiring or when Sutts has ran out of steam and bring a bit of energy to the team , so initially I think he would be a great replacement for Clarkston in the bench , and with full time training he might be able to develop a better player and a first team regular , hopefully he will be a decent signing

What about that Paul Simon song. You can call me Pal -
The new signings are giving us options yo play three or four different formations , quite happy with how JR is shaping the squad
-
Well you called the Shankland one correct , wonder if where Stevie Mallon is off to , and hope we get a decent fee for him , hope we can keep hold of Baird , but maybe send him out on loan til the end of the season . Happy with Storie and Loy coming in , monies from Shankland , Hardie, Walsh, Hutton and Naismith could allow us to make a couple more decent signings in key positions and give us better shape
-
Read Barnsley got something like £7 million from the sale ofJon Stones from Everton to Man City , so it would be no suprise me if they improved their squad
-
Was at old Trafford yesterday and that version was played before the game
-
If we drop down a league , which is looking more likely each week , we need to have five or six experienced players , five or six young players , and probably five or six players who are experienced and successful in the lower I leagues , we can afford that squad with our budget next year . we should focus on initiatives that keep prices down and bring fans in
-
Totally agree , also hope this allows Mallan to play further up the park , and also get the best out of the other midfielders , maybe if it works out we may get him on loan again next season .
-
Having a bit of fun here , and I hope I,m wrong , but supposing we are just keeping Stefan McCluskey hanging about in case we get a bit in for either Morgan or McAllister
-
The opportunity to move on is still there , we just need to get thus season over , hopefully a Great Escape this season will set us up nicely for next season .
-
I think the fact we had too many strikers worked against us , not just by leaving us short in other positions , but also by not allowing a decent striking partnership to form .
-
Big McQueen was talking about Love Street 1970 , which was the same as Love Street 1960 , Love Street 2000 was not a bad ground , but we had to move , and I think we will eventually benefit from the move

The battle to avoid relegation
MenstrieSaint replied to Eaglesham saint's topic in General St. Mirren Discussion
Get us a left footed left back , a central defender that can also play in central midfield , and an striker who can also play in midfield , which would give us a bit of versality , younger versions of Goodwin , McGowan and Lappin will do nicely -
Allows left back
-
Lots of material for a nice witty song , hope he,s a decent player
-
Its basically cheating isn,t it , Hibs as well , both have decent sized enough squads , and under 20 squads to bring players in from , both must be real desperate for promotion , I wonder what will happen to either if they don,t go up. Reckon Hibs will have to sell to survive , not too sure about Dundee United
-
I was thinking ( perhaps niavely ) the location would suit a certain type of company. For instance , I,m always getting phone calls from companies that can offer me better electricity / gas deals , cheaper mobile phone deals , cheaper motor insurance , cheaper life insurance ,cheaper broadband etc , and in some instances I,ve used these companies and saved a couple of bob , I,m also sure the companies themselves have made a few bob out of me , I,m sure a company offering these sorts of services , and other similar services could do well operating out of the club shop , and make money more often than just a few afternoons a year.
-
You maybe right , but give it some thought , what sort of business would work well there ? A business which everyone could be a potential user , but one which St Mirren supporters would use , because some of the profits would go directly to the club .
