First team captain

First team captain (9/14)

  1. When I first heard that news I thought it was the Celtic player of the same name, but have to say I wasn’t familiar with this player. Dreadful accident for such a young lad.
  2. Agree, that’s why I don’t bother watching nowadays.
  3. Not particularly interested in the tennis nowadays but a brief look today brought back memories of watching glorious sunny days on tv whilst looking out at the rain through the windows here. Traditional July weather in this country. 😂
  4. Richardson signed from non league as well as Oseni. I was mainly generalising but unconvinced of the likelihood they will succeed. Latest signing today I put in that category. We need a goalie and a centre forward desperately.
  5. I’m rather more concerned with the recent trend in signing, or borrowing, players from lower or even non league in England. Not just by Saints it has to be said. It reminds one of the Stubbs era when he assumed that the standard here is so low that non league players from his own country would suffice here. Similar to what I think the new rangers manager is going to try. As for a goalie, I dread to think who we are going to sign or borrow.
  6. Had assumed he wanted to return to Ireland but liked him as a player and think he will do well in the English third division.
  7. Is it mandatory to sign reserve keepers on loan from lower league English teams ? A new keeper every season, for one year, seems to be the norm now. Presumably there are no decent stoppers from the several dozen teams in leagues below us.
  8. Me too. Very nice helpful staff, all done in a couple of minutes.
  9. Not bothered with the highlights, just listened on radio in garden. After such a great recent run, albeit fruitless, it feels hard to take. Our poor home form mid season likely sealed our fate but the last few weeks have made up for that. Well done to the team.
  10. We are long overdue a win against Celtic, Saturday would do just fine and maybe propel us into a euro place. Great performance last night, the first ten minutes excepted. I still want to know why the third goal was ruled out. 😠
  11. Missed chances cost us winning, at least two sitters. Game changed when Mc Menamin came on, keep him for the next game. Rangers goalie was hopeless but the no 49 was good, didn’t recognise him. We definitely need a goalscorer up front and whilst Mandron has a bit of football in him, the other one cannot even control the ball , far less score. Nevertheless a draw against Rangers is usually decent. A win next week would be good.
  12. Ah, patronising Celtic fans, how kind of them. Must be just me but Ayunga in my opinion is slow, has poor ball control, rarely wins a header, is easily knocked off the ball and this season has scored 3 goals, one of which was an own goal. Sorry, but well out of his depth at this level.
  13. As good as he is, Stephen Robinson has a blind spot when it comes to Ayunga. Genuinely cannot understand this announcement. Am I alone in this ?
  14. Great achievement in reaching the top six, no disputing. The performance was pretty nervy though and at one point it looked like Ross Co were more likely to win. Battled on, however, and it turned out fine. One observation, Olusanya was very poor and looks to have chucked it waiting for his big move. Might well be a hit in the English fourth division. The relegation scrap is one well worth avoiding for the nerves, I genuinely wouldn’t have fancied that. It seems more or less impossible to advance from sixth position as others are so far ahead but who knows. Well done Saints. 👍
  15. Great, if unexpected result. Weather rather spoiled the match of course. Five goals and none scored by a forward though. Kind of sums up our forward line. Killie look a shadow of last season and are in a bit of trouble.
