Our back three will very much be a back five , we will have one forward , and will will create a few chances , but we are hugely dependent on our keeper having a great game . I would persevere with Dean Lynass with a view of seeing if he,s got it in him to be a first team regular. Much as I would like Jak to remain with us next season , he will no doubt have several offers coming his way . So no harm on working in plan B

Add to the fact that it was a horrible evening to be driving yo the game .

I think Saints would rather get as much money as possible for him from a club in England and putting wee rumours about is Saints way if letting teams know that he will be going this January . Kennedy to Saints as part of a player swop with a decent cash adjustment might suit both teams , but I'm thinking that Saints are now trying to create an Auction for Jamie . To be honest , I think now is the time to move him on , he's talents are wasted with the way we are set up and the way we play .

Bit in one of todays papers , I suspect St Mirren , player and agent are trying to entice a bid from the championship

It's all about opinions and not being hostile towards people who,s opinions are different to yours .

I think it will . It has a nice ring to it . Tbh I rather St Mirren and Fibble break their ties and the term Fibble just dies a death . So to a certain extent agree with you Baz .

Fibble , love that . Though I suspect the those working for Kibble won't. Those working for rival companies that compete for the same business as Kibble will be loving this terminology and how this relationship is seemingly developing. Kibble really shouldn't really be making enemies as it will just result in name calling petty accusations and there will be no winners . With that in mind , I think both parties should seek a compromise that allows both parties to come out the arrangement with dignity. And BTW , I'm one of the guys that believe the rumours to be true , and am concerned about the impact it could have on the team .

Can someone in the know please clarify how many St Mirren shares Kibble actually own ? Is it %27 of St Mirrens total shares or is it %27 of the shares that Smisa wished to buy to have ownership and control of the club? Is there a reason why %27 was the amount of ownership that Kibble agreed to buy ?

Providing services for vulnerable young people and invoicing local authorities seems rather lucrative .

Could be the most important AGM in years . An opportunity to stop the tail wagging the dog .

Could the club not call an egm and have one motion to bring in two more smisa directors and another motion that all the key decisions in running the club be taken to the vote .

Personally I prefer a group of St Mirren fans running the club as opposed to a group of people who,s business expertise is profiting from providing services to the most vulnerable young people in Scotland .

I think there will be teams wanting McGrath this season to help their push for promotion. Some teams will probably be touching base just now to try and get a deal done early. There will be lots of scouts watching McGrath in the next two ROI games knowing he us available relatively cheap in the next transfer window . I think we will get considerably more for him in January , than what Hibs were offering in September.

There will be top end Championship clubs in England desperate to sign McGrath. We could get quite a decent fee for him , certainly more than what was offered last transfer window . As soon as a club signs him and puts him on a three year contract his value will be £3 million as a current Irish International. Should the team get promoted that value would triple . Look out for Celtic offering sweeties .

I would hope with Ronan and McGrath then we try keeping it on the deck and using the midfield instead of going with the route one we have so far this season. These boys should be able to help get the ball up the park with pace. Excited to see this play out as hope we get it up Utd. Would even be happy if Flynn played in front of the back three and McGrath played further up .

Today might be the making of his 352 system with McGrath and Ronin playing in front if the back three and Kiltie , Brophey and Main up front . Hoping we get to see Miller today too .

Hopefully that could adapt to a 442 if required .

A free weekend means there's still time to get a couple of players in with pace . I thought we would have got that from the loan market. Happy with McGrath staying . If we are going to persevere with three at the back I would prefer McCarthy, Dunne and Shaunessey to be the first choice three as their height is a goal threat .

I think he will be fine. He,s played at a decent level and the fact that Wolves offered him a four year contract suggests that they see potential in him. I do though think that Jamie McGrath has played his last game for us .

Based on previous season we will have a few still to come in. I'm expecting two loanees and two out of contract players who have yet to find a club.

The way he is capable if strolling forward with the ball makes him a huge asset in a back three. Can't understand how he doesn't get a start .

Kelty,s experienced players must be really pissed off , getting beat by whats in effect our third team . Well done the youngsters. Can see a couple of them going out on loan .

Should have had Connor McCarthy on the right hand side of the three central defenders and Erahon playing next to Power in front of the back three . We should be defending better . Its going to be a long season.

Need to have Connor McCarthy back for this one. Hearts will be dangerous at set peices . Hopefully Hearts luck runs out , they certainly got the breaks last week .

Maybe Lewis Jamieson. He did well at Clyde . Very fast and works hard to close down defences . Well worth keeping an eye on Inverness,s results.
