We have, I believe, 11 players in the squad who’s contracts run out, or loan period ends at the end of the season. Whatever Robinson is accused off that wasn’t his doing. Little in the way of a surprise that he has started recruiting for next season already. It’s easy to see where friction would arise between manager and players as he sounds them out or them him on plans for the coming season. Jim had already shipped some out in the January window with more to come. This doesn’t excuse him or the players of putting in poor performances but going on winning or losing streaks seems to have been the norm for every team outside the top 3 and the bottom team. Consequently, the form guide based on the last six matches may not tell the whole story. Still worrying though as a fan.
Even allowing for all the above; it's never nice to see anyone sidestepping all fault even though they are in charge. In interviews he seems nervous and operates in extremes, ie ' brilliant play' to 'diabolical defending', Goodwin kept a fairly level head, I'm afraid Robinson does not inspire confidence in me, put it this way, I wouldn't buy a second hand car from the guy.

Good game for a neutral but comedy defending by both sides, Deano showing why he’s backup keeper, 2 howlers. Game still there, but feck me🙈
Have to agree keeper looks nervous, worried to death about maybe having to use his left foot and hasn't shown me he is worth his spot today.

You are spot on. Enjoy Ronan while we can. The lad is outstanding. He will surely have clubs queuing up to sign him.
I dont get the slagging of Jones he works his socks off and is quality we didnt have in the first half of the season.
Sorry; a quality player doesn't keep falling over when nobody touches him, a quality player tracks back and tackles (or in Jones case, falls over), a quality player has more than a one in 20 success rate in passing, dribbling or shooting, and finally a quality player is NOT Jones, he is an average to good player, a quality player is someone who can do the things that Ronnan did, not Jones ever for me, waste of a wage.

Think Brophy was on a hard shift, no decent balls to feet so had to drop deep, when he went long they passed short when he came short they passed long. He causes issues for defenders so I like him, he was unlucky not to score but I would love to se him and Grieve up front together as I think the two would work well

Can see why Jones wasn't getting his game at Wigan, he's been rotten since his goal against 🤫 was it Kelty
Jones for me is one of those that flatters to deceive, he had one good touch near the end of the match when he suddenly switched gear........afterburners on and a chance was created, other than that we got 92 minutes of him showing that he definitely has potential, but either chooses not to show it, cant be bothered to show it or simply isn't good enough to show it. Not someone I would waste a wage on, on the other hand the young man who came on and crossed for Ronnan to score should have been on much earlier, Robinson was LUCKY, not a tactical genius, simply lucky let us hope he is not one of those managers who sticks to his guns with players and or styles of play that aren't working, we have had some of them previously. Having said all that we won even though we barely deserved to, whatever his tactics were...........they were wrong.

I see on here arguments for and against bringing Jack Ross back to St. Mirren. But would he come?
If the club is looking at people like Naismith and Brown, that surely indicates a level of salary a good bit below what Ross would be looking for. So, could the club afford him?
I rather think salary really wouldn't be a huge issue for anyone that St Mirren are likely to offer the position to, I mean let us assume that we offer the post to a newbie such as Brown (yuch) or Naismith (yea), would it not be the case that given their relatively successful years as players, they would be financially secure enough to take a bit of a hit; wage-wise in order to gain potential access to a new career. As for the likes of Jack Ross or someone similar, the same rational ....re access to a new post would surely apply.

What about his zero managerial experience, do you not think thats important?
Don't see how you could want someone with no experience rather than experience managers like Ross/McInness/Lennon
Naismith has been in and around football for a long time, from his days at Killie through Rangers, Everton, Norwich and Hearts and god knows how many Scotland caps. He is a good team player who has fitted in wherever he has been and served under some fairly auspicious managers,............ now perhaps he is the sort of dunderheid who hasnae listened tae a thing that they telt im, ............ but I rather think the opposite is more likely, so for me he is certainly worth an interview, and we shall see where that takes us.
As for Ross/McInness/Lennon? Well I could live with Jack Ross, I don't think the board could though. McInness, sorry he doesn't rock my boat, a nearly man at best. And Lennon? Well like I said earlier, if it's Danny?, yes why not, I'm into nostalgia. Neil Lennon would be an absolute no no for me.

Steven Naismith is possibly a good shout.
He, (like Goodwin and unlike Brown) seems a decent character.
Ross is a backward step (for him and Saints) and he is unlikely to be motivated in the St Mirren job.
We are likely to go for a promising but untried candidate - so Naismith or Bartley would fill that bill.
Quite like the idea of Naismith. I am not hooked that the new man has to have a connection with us, more that he isn't tainted by a connection with certain 'others' for me that rules out quite a few in the blue and green bigot brigade.............not all, but a few. Naismith to me isn't tainted and he has played at a really good level and has always as far as I can remember come across as a reasonable, articulate and dignified man who would be worth an interview certainly.
I will be assured of giving the board my opinion when they ring me and ask.

I think if the club are talking to brown it will be as an assistant because they want lennon. Some may say we cannot afford lennon does he need the money prob pin money for him. But would much rather it was lennon who is proven and will demand results. Will have contacts also.
Dissapointed jim has left but I think it will be a really hard job for him. But he is gone and I won't be devistated unless St mirren board recruit someone unproven.
I would be OK with mcinnes or lennon. Don't want Ross.
Is it not funny how opinions differ, I would actually far rather have Danny Lennon back than either mcinnes or lennon and for me certainly; I would absolutely need somebody who gives a sh*t about the club as the very first and non negotiable primacy of employment.

Just watched the Joe Shaughnessy interview and am mightily impressed by his behaviour/ demeanour,, cool calm and collected, following the club (party line) even though I would imagine it's done naturally and not instructed by the club, he always has come across as a sensible chap. A left-field choice perchance?
-
not for me hopefully, is he no just as green as Rae was blue? and I hasten tae add I am speaking the divisive sense of two top teams nothing to do with religion or sectarianism

I agree on Sunderland. They lost out on the last game of the season. Then struggled after he left, but it wasn't working at Hibs despite a good squad and getting to sign a good number of players. Magennis fitness won't have helped but they underperformed on the park... so the buck stops with JR and his coaching staff and they paid the price.
Jury's out on whether he will ever return to us. Personally I think progress is more likely going forwards than backwards - but i do truly value where JR rescued us from...
JG contract extension along with Greive and Shaunessey asap....
agree entirely with complete last sentence re contract extensions, however have to disagree (equally) entirely re Hibs, he got them to a semi and they were in a reasonable position when boot came down.............all quite naturally in my ever so humble opinion.

one of the youngsters training with the first team squad, his energy levels are poor for a supposedly talented 'professional' player, he very seldom tracks back when he loses the ball and while he can cross a ball, you need centre forwards that are 8 ft tall to get to them. I would sonner have a less talented player who grafts; than someone who IMO is only ever going to be a 'nearly man'.
