er, no it won't!

If its getting weary for you then just don't reply! All players have some experience before they play for St. Mirren based on your Mark Fulton example! Yeh, Peter Weir was literally a one-off. Apart from Frank McAvennie. Your last sentence is both obvious and irrelevant! They were both instantly better than the more experienced players that they replaced!

That wasn't a UEFA decision

In what way is it not recognised by UEFA?

Yes, Fulton & Weir were good players - but they had no experience. Didn't you say that most players don't become good until they get experience? Johnny Dempster was a player who the manager obviously thought was good. He was signed because he had a lot of experience and that was preferable to going with the inexperienced Peter Weir. Back in 2013, we went into the second half of the season with 2 very young central midfielders with virtually no experience, Connor Newton and John McGinn. We won the League Cup!

I would disagree entirely. I remember all the way to 1979 when we signed an experienced winger called Johnny Dempster. We also had an experienced centre half at the time, Andy Dunlop. We had a very poor start to that season which culminated in us getting knocked out of the League Cup at home to lower Division Hamilton after winning the away leg 2-0 at Douglas Park. The response was to promote a young winger, signed from the juniors, by the name of Peter Weir. We also promoted a young centre half called Mark Fulton. Neither had any experience to note. Dempster & Dunlop never featured again. We went on to finish 3rd, our highest ever league placing. So dramatic was the turnaround that the poor start actually cost us the title itself. All I can reading is that folk want us to sign "experience". I don't care about experience. All I want is for us to sign good players. And players do not need any experience to be good!

We can only sign players with the experience they currently have! You seem to be suggesting that we use some sort of time machine to bring those same players back from the future! Given a choice between 2 DIFFERENT players, I would rather we signed the best one!

The key word you have used in your final sentence is “good”. Give me an good player, regardless of experience, any day over an experienced shite player.

Don’t agree The final defeat does not take away the enjoyment that was experienced at the moment of the preceding victories. You’re an older fan. I’m quite sure that the 4-1 win over Dundee United in 1977 is one of your most enjoyable moments and memories as a Saints fan.

Why an “experienced” centre half? Why not a “good” centre half? There are plenty of experienced centre halves about who are shit. I’d rather have someone who is good, regardless of their experience!

No, we just need quality And just cos you’ve never seen these guys play doesn’t mean they aren’t quality!

He’s made someone look foolish for sure But it ain’t doonhamer!

Rogers and Kpekawa?

But not as often as faraway’s wife when I pop over for a visit

I dread to think what you get up to on your laptop. [emoji12]

As do all our rivals, so no net gain. All it does is increase the gap between them and us.

There are no circumstances where I would wish our Glasgow neighbours well!

Best football song ever was Vindaloo

Local rivalries and derbies is a major feature in football. Most football fans do not want to see their 'local' rivals win. Its part and parcel of football. Its part of the entertainment.

Would we consider it a success if our colts beat the first team in the League Cup final?

With opening a coffee shop itself! Why not open a Chinese takeaway instead? Or a restaurant? Or a mini market? Why don’t we sell second hand cars as well?

How?

FFS, football clubs opening coffee shops! [emoji23]

They haven’t left yet so no, we’re not short on numbers, especially if we have trialists in addition
