Mainstand Sweary Mob Posted June 29, 2023 Report Share Posted June 29, 2023 Still think it could happen if Linfield accepts our offer. But mean while Robbo will carry on looking elsewhere. Balls in their court.What does Linfield have to do with Conor McMenamin and Glentoran?Sent from my Pixel 6a using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but he did only appear for 11 mins as a sub in one game and was subbed after 15 at Rugby park when Erhahon got red carded . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougJamie Posted June 29, 2023 Report Share Posted June 29, 2023 If Brophy used his arse rather than his feet and head....he might get more goals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'd have a squad of hundreds and huge debt !!! The value of a good manager is not just deciding who to bring in but who to let go. He is in a better position than you or I to make an informed decision and minimise the risk And the manager stands or falls on his judgement.

Ronnie Posted June 30, 2023 Report Share Posted June 30, 2023 Did he ever do that against his old club when he played for us. Did he get a chance to do that??? 1 season Killie weren't in same league as us and this season his only start ironically was at Rugby Park(Had £10 on him for first goal) where Erahon's stupidity resulted in Brophy being subbed after 10 minutes.

magnus Posted June 30, 2023 Report Share Posted June 30, 2023 It would be good to get some confirmation from the Club on the development fee received for Jay Henderson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"We have protected the club and managed to get a good fee for Jay with a potential sell-on. We thank Jay for his service to St Mirren and wish him the best in his future career." Quote from the manager, a good fee, seems a fair statement to make and no need to go into detail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainstand Sweary Mob Posted June 30, 2023 Report Share Posted June 30, 2023 Why keep it vague?Why let people know how much money you have got for someone or in the bank? People can then hold out for more and make deals harder to make I'm favour for us as a club.Sent from my Pixel 6a using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CraigyBoy Posted June 30, 2023 Report Share Posted June 30, 2023 Neither Jay nor Brophy were threatening the Managers first XI.. With a 6 figure sum plus off the wage bill for EB and a useful development fee for Jay then from the outside it appears good business ... I wish them both well but if 2 players had to hit the exit then these aren't the biggest losses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guinness Posted June 30, 2023 Report Share Posted June 30, 2023 Probably did not demand full development fee. Fair enough to get deal done. Hopefully , if the boy does well , we make it up with percentage of any sell on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callum Gilhooley Posted June 30, 2023 Report Share Posted June 30, 2023 I think we should publicly announce to the last penny what we get from every transfer . It’s only fair that the employers & agents of any potential targets know exactly how much spare dosh we have when negotiating . 🙄. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can assure you we are not, you would be surprised. Do you think Robinson would of signed a new deal had he not been promised funds being made available, we are sitting nice just now.

Or offer a manager a long-term deal. The utter negative drivel people actually post, and believe, is astonishing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
