To be honest, I have had guesses in the past, but never made anything up. I'm no crossword clue compiler, just trying to put a few not-s-cryptic clues out as to the identity of the guy who is signing today.

:D

Wasn't suggestion you TBH, but if you read over these type of threads, and I do for a laugh, they are 85% made up, regurgitated mince.  :rolleyes:

It's a player who will hopefully help put a long distance between us and the chasing pack. Just hope there isn't any unusual weight of expectation on the boy...

Took a while to work out :huh: think I have it now good exciting addition if i'm right just watched the goals he scored for both teams he played for in Scotland , love one of his gymnastic celebrations after he scored that kind of celebration will have our fans smile from ear to ear.

Given the statement of intent by the chairman on the subject, I cant for a second imagine any scenario where Ross & co would believe signing Hippolyte would be a progressive option, looking towards bringing in players of premiership calibre. This diving dud barely gets a game at the bottom of the championship.

Transfer fee being paid by SMiSA. What a gesture from them :)

By all accounts he is being brought in to coach the kids at street stuff on their acrobatics.

Isma was a known diver. 

I love Isma.

Always caused us problems when he played against us. I'm not comfortable with players who are cheats, but considering his previous clubs, there's every chance that this was being actively encouraged by the coaching staff. I'm not naive enough to think that St Mirren players aren't playing for fouls or running down the clock from time to time, it happens at every club, but Livingston and Falkirk as clubs seem to be masters of these sorts of underhanded tactics. 

Hopefully he sorts himself out playing for us, learns some professionalism and improves as a player. He certainly has talent and he's a tremendous athlete. Could be a great signing if it works out.

We've lacked a good diver since Shuggie Murray was in the team.

 

Shame he  wasn't  still here.  He could have shown him who to do it properly.  

 

Welcome and I hope you've got miles in you.

Wish we were announcing signing Craig Sibbald too... but now I am being greedy....

If I were to be greedy, I would still quite like to see a defensive midfielder sign. I appreciate that Hill can play in this area, but it would help with squad balance if we signed someone up who is established in this position.

I see that Paul Paton has been released/mutually consented by St Johnstone. Can't say I know much about him, or whether he is any good, but know he plays in this position.

Can see him rolling back up at tannadice mate.

Would be a decent signing though.
