    Newton/Campbell/Teale coming on for Djemba-Djemba when he picks up his obligatory yellow card / is too tired and starts booting folk. Think D-D would be more effective in the middle rather than playing deep, especially while he's not match fit.

    The thing a like most about this signing is that we've signed someone of real quality, with ambition. It's clear that the lad is desperate to get into this Cameroon squad for the WC and thinks St Mirren is his best chance at it.
    In the past week, St Mirren have trended twice on Twitter - due to Djemba-Djemba, and #NoToNovo. Lots of fans/players/managers are on Twitter and you can be sure that we've raised a few eyebrows around Europe.
    It gives the club a new identity. Instead of being seen as a shite wee club - we're suddenly seen as a club with fans who stand together for a cause - and bringing in some decent names despite our tight budget.
    Well done the club in firstly telling Novo to GTF, and now bringing in a player with real credentials.

    Stunningly ambitious signing.
    It's a shame the usual bastards with an anti-Danny agenda can't come on here and give him a little credit for this.
    Whether this works or not you can't accuse Danny of not having a go at improving things.
    Between Adam, Josh, Wylde, resigning Conor and now Eric, this has been a fabulous transfer window for us.
    Add in Kello as well and actually overall Danny hasn't done too badly for signings.
    We've dumped a fair amount of shite and have brought 4 or 5 seriously good players in to replace them.
    I would still like to see a centre half but I don't expect we'll do that now.
    Just need some fecking league wins now and a good Cup run and by March we'll be talking about how amazing this season has been.
    Well we'll be talking about that once we've laughed our arses off at Lex, Duke, JJ, billyg, and a vast array of other whining twats who've wrecked this board for the last 9 months.

    Doakes got a reaction from Maximillion in St Mirren V Partick Thistle 25/1/2014   
    Personally I feel we're not giving Thistle enough credit. They closed down well and created a few chances. Draw was probably a fair result.
    As much as I want to like Danny, he doesn't adapt into a game whatsoever. Starts out with his gameplan and rarely changes it. Campbell would've had more joy out wide, or running at Mair as someone else mentioned. There seems to be a fear of making tactical changes, not good management.
    Another point. Why are our advertising boards so shit? Think 2 or 3 players ended up getting slammed through them yesterday. Someone is going to end up getting hurt.

    Not sure if there's anything going on off the park, none of my business if there is but the day of the United game he apparently came in in a right c**t of a mood. A mood that was unusual and aggressive and was noticed by a few. Woke up on the wrong side of the bed possibly.
    Goodwin was brilliant yesterday, If that Goody turns up most weeks then he's the first name on the starting sheet.

    Reckon I could comfortably catch a large-ish badger. Not sure how viscious they are though, could be kinda dangerous. A small dog is another option.

    Main problem with Scottish football imo. Kevin Bridges actually hit the nail on the head when he talked about the mental manager standing at the side screaming abuse at the weans.
    Should be all about technique, fun and learning to control the ball at that age. This "win at all costs" attitude breeds bad behaviours.
