Mainstand Sweary Mob Posted June 24, 2023 Report Share Posted June 24, 2023 A goalkeeper coming in? Yep.I take it we are deciding that big Peter should go out on loan this season for 1st team/make or break experience then? This can't be for No1 spot as Carson has been great.

northstbuddie Posted June 24, 2023 Report Share Posted June 24, 2023 (edited) Perhaps the club have a standing arrangement with players considering signing for St Mirren that they will sell them on for a quarter of their market value so that they are not stuck in Paisley longer than necessary.

Shows we are the show case and stepping stone the player was promised and we make some money rather than no money like seasons in the past. Each year we then look to increase this initial amount with the increase of gradual quality of players.

Ethan was tremendous in the first half of the season and was pivotal to the way we played. Here’s hoping when he’s up to speed that Boyd-Munce can get to the same level.

The transformation of Ethan’s game this season was a joy to watch. Under Robbo he developed a confidence in his ability and despite his age showed great maturity in decision making. Had he stayed to the end of the season I have no doubt that we would have finished higher in the league. We won away at Aberdeen in February after he had left to take us above the Dons but we kinda fell away for the remainder of the season with a lot of inconsistency with results. I really hope Ethan goes on to have a great career down south. Sadly (even this season) despite how well he played there were idiots in our support verbally abusing him to which he reacted. ETA: agree about Boyd-Munce Looks a good signing for us. Edited June 24, 2023 by Albanian Buddy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was certainly the talk at the time but if so , why hasn’t he been playing ? I haven’t seen enough of Boyd Munce to form an opinion but for us to take up the option on his contract , I’d hope the gaffer knows what he is doing 🤞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would they fall out? If he is to go it is for money and we look for a starter. We have done well in GK so I'd not worry. I feel it's likely rubbish. We are looking to loan out peter for more time to see if got it. Loan in a number 2Sent from my Pixel 6a using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appreciate the update - all "ifs and buts " - but you would think if we are to bid any higher that would indicate someone would definitely be leaving for a fee ... Maybe Keanu 🤷🤷 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
