Seaside Nipper

Each to their own, personally it isn't worth the hand wringing and pondering imo.
Look forward, don't see what harbouring doubts about the Chairman really serves. I have had doubts about St Mirren's commercial capability and business nous for decades, the present Chief Exec's credentials are a joke, past chairman have come in for plenty blah de blah. de blah.We've all seen some amount of roasters in charge over our time.
 It doesn't change how I feel about St Mirren and the team year in year out.
Get the team out and playing some honest maybe even attractive  football, score some goals , win some games.
Feel more confident about Goodwin doing so going into this season, than I would have with OK. Seems others thought so as well.

^^^^^ apply that logic and ambition to 90%+ of clubs ^^^^
Every  club is a selling club given the right nos, such is life.
The pernicious side of all this is the any sense of loyalty and purpose is ripped up and you are doing well to get anything more than a single season where it comes together.
Can we just field a team of academy kids, yes, is it or would it be acceptable, NO
 
 

Whoa there, we can always hoof him again, especially if he is hot to trot, neigh bother. Too many folk on their high horse about this. No need for erm, long faces

Did I see a Swedish player get hit in the face with a ball from a header and had to be stretchered off? 

you forgot the #LAF

He's certainly proven he can talk the talk..................now the challenge begins.
"Cup runs, stability, minimal number of loan players "..................oooerrr

St Mirren and publicity........................even if its Red Top rag publicity.
I hear that the chef at the Spanish training camp complex that Saints are at was once was a youth academy player with Seville.................

Pleased this appears to be sorted.
Goodwin will have a bank of good will and feel good towards him.
Legend comes to the club.
Hopefully what he brings and what he learns is a sufficient journey for us Buds
Lets build some momentum and get into the season on the front foot, take no shit !!!!

I don't really wonder about it, ( due diligence, or the lack of ) the clubs track record by and large speaks for itself. I think some self awareness required about St Mirren, we're a provincial club that's not very good or professional about a lot of aspects of the 'football business'. I'm cynical, but realistic enough ( time served fandom and all that ) to know that all we can expect is now the mediocre that sometimes falls in our favour, we punch above our weight on occasions.
 We're more than a tad dysfunctional, we are a basket case to many, look at us across the last decade, new ground, must be ten managers, and quite a mixed bag  
Prior to that and we had our lot of the Love street era, well we had debt driven mediocrity , hand to mouth scrambling, then odd days in the sun, there was the odd case of the Germanic jewellery theft, the Spanish El Capitan, we were the last all Scottish team to lift the SC, we had the bibs, first team back in Europe after Heysel, a Scottish centre forward scoring a hat trick in an away leg of a European tie, we've been cited as racist abusing Ruud Gullit, we have one of the best away supports when the chips are down, we love adversity.............................. need I go on
Brilliant, surely a unique club, what's next

I'm guessing the club will say they've started receiving lots of quality applications already and not to worry by the end of the week 70 people will have applied. A few unlikely big names will be mentioned. Goodie will prefer to stick with Alloa and his secure part-time job outside football and continue working with a reliable chairman. In three weeks time we'll appoint Jim McIntyre and Billy Dodds... all of which will be announced in 4 weeks time on the official website.

What is his settlement, how would you know any details about that
Apparently OK didn't fancy it, things soured, GLS allegedly never was the greatest OK fan either
GLS and OK fell out
That's about it.
Nowt else remotely relevant................we move on

Hmmm, or in much redacted version, Kearney didn't fancy it after his wee induction to the league , decided nah, not for me,  I'm off. GLS wasn't going to work too hard to change his mind.
Strangely with Coyle, he was last seen bolting from Ross County, family and commuting doesn't seem to sit too well  ????  Coyle did an OK, except Coyle folded, packed it in, no suggestion of a nudge over although that was probably looming. He was terrible for Ross County
