pozbaird Posted June 27, 2015 Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 FFS , Hes unbeaten as St.Mirren manager . some folk are never happy ! Fair point, but he cannot continue to simply hang onto his 'unbeaten' tag with a 0-0-0-0 record.... I'm sick of this. Spalding should go too. Anyone got Jimmy Calderwood's number?

Dave The Buddie Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 Wee interview with Murray here. http://sport.stv.tv/football/clubs/st-mirren/1323663-ian-murray-says-mirren-youths-can-reduce-summer-recruitment-drive/ = Struggling with getting any sort of quality in with our budget Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave The Buddie Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 I'm not yet impressed with Murray and hope he makes me eat my words. He seems to have changed his mind about how many signings we may require based on one pre-season training session and guys doing fitness tests. When he took over he said he reckoned we would need to sign 8 or 9 players and bring in some senior pros to help the younger players he was left with from last year's squad. At the minute we have 12 players in the squad after Gow and Thompson re-signed and Agnew was brought in. David Barron is coming in on trial next week after 18 months without a club due to injury, Gow signed for us before the summer after being without a club due to a long term injury. Thommo missed half of last season due to injuries. Agnew has been a decent part time player in this division and so you would hope stepping up to full time should mean he will improve further. I realise that we will probably keep adding to the squad until the window shuts and we will have to take a few punts and hope for the best due to our budget, I'd still like to see some full time senior players signed without recent serious or recurring injury problems who come from clubs of a similar status to us (Partick Thistle, Dundee, Hamilton, Killie, Falkirk, Raith Rovers) and am concerned that with their injury records we could easily see our senior players supporting the young guys from the sidelines rather than on the pitch. David Barron on trial. We are scrapping the barrel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stripey Posted June 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 David Barron on trial. We are scrapping the barrel I really hope that David passes the trial period with us and is resigned, in particular if he shows the form he managed to display prior too him listening to some misguided agent that managed to convince him he would have no bother in getting a club in the English Championship. With the player in the right frame of mind and his fitness levels being what Ian Murray wants, I would predict that he would be a success for us, mind you I also predicted that Gregg Wylde would be an outstanding success for us last season.

I was sure David terminated his contract due to his injury and decided to give up the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stripey Posted June 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 You are correct injury was a major problem for David, however prior to this David was advised by his agent that he was a player that would have no problem getting an English Championship side to sign him. The allure of playing for an English Championship team turned Davids head, that and his agent also convincing him he was better than he was. This was followed by spells of him playing in the 1st team for saints and then being out for the next game, till eventually he lost fitness and the confidence to play for us and unfortunately a few injuries later put paid to him playing for us again.

Frank McGarvey' wonky legs Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 Suppose Div Barron will be company in the treatment room for Gow and Thommo and our new Physio(possily part time?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTOF Posted June 30, 2015 Report Share Posted June 30, 2015 Quote from IM in today's sun. "He (Carswell) should be our last midfield arrival. We need to concentrate on other areas. We've got our eye on one or two that may happen quickly and another one or two that could drag on until August. We've been offered lots of players, but we've got to get the right ones and the budget is the most important thing. We don't want to waste our money early and then see something crop up when we've got no money left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronaldo Posted June 30, 2015 Report Share Posted June 30, 2015 As much as I'd like to see the Div Barron of a few years back, that just won't happen. I can't see how a player can go from retiring to playing again at a very decent level. Our budget is too tight to risk it on Div Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTOF Posted June 30, 2015 Report Share Posted June 30, 2015 Sounds like a measured approach. You've went down in my estimations for reading the Sun, however. Bad, bad FTOF! I know. As poor a newspaper as The Sun is, I buy papers primarily to read about the football signings/rumours etc. At the moment, The Sun is by far the best in that respect. Could be worse though; As I said elsewhere, I could be reading The Daily Mail,The Telegraph or The Daily Express. The real gutter press. It used to amuse me, at a former place of work, the ridicule that I received for buying the Daily Record. Didn't stop the same people asking to read it or reading it when they thought that no one was looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
