Shankland & Gallagher


Recommended Posts


Thomson is passed it and whilst the two young lads may become players they have a handful of appearances and goals at a reasonable level. We need a new striker during the window, our lack of threat up front is our biggest weakness as teams can push right up and have no worries about what happens if they lose the ball.

We've got one!!!! we just don't use him in the right position, and its stevie mallan. Play him in behind the one up top, the lads got everything, reminds me so much like Shaun Maloney, I just don't see mallan as a midfielder.

Totally agree mallan playing a number 10 shankland 9 and Gallacher n McMullan out in the wings

Missing goody that bit of experience and his prescence in the midfield influences some teams

Defo think Thommo will start as his face was ripping when he didn't get on the other night

Millars a brown nose when it comes to thommo

Dougie Imre scored 3 goals in 39 matches at St Mirren. As soon as he left he tripled his strike rate at Morton and he's doubled it at Hamilton Accies.

John Baird scored 1 goal every 5 matches at St Mirren - not bad for a St Mirren striker, however he's now scoring 1 goal every 1,7 games.

Gary Harkins scored 1 goal in 15 matches at St Mirren. He went to Oldham and improved that strike rate to 1 goal every 4 matches and 1 in 8 at Dundee.

The only player in recent times that has bucked that trend is Kenny McLean and he's just one goal short of his best season at St Mirren having played 10 games less than in his best season at St Mirren.

It's clear the problem at St Mirren is tactical and its down to successive failings in management whether you want to look at Gus McPherson, Danny Lennon, Tommy Craig, and now Ian Murray. Its time for a manager who gets the side playing without fear and in a far more positive and attacking manner. Neither Murray, or Alex Miller for that matter is likely to have the team do that and to blame Shankland, Gallagher or even Thompson for their lack of goals when the supply is utterly useless is frankly absurd.

Even McGinn is proving prolific for Hibs in comparison to his days with Saints
