div 13,501 Report post Posted July 17, 2016 Signed on loan from Rangers until Jan. Can play wide left or right. Fits the bill for what we were after. Good signing IMO Sent from my iPhone using Black & White Army 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Saint Garf 805 Report post Posted July 17, 2016 Can't say I remember him to be honest. Read on Twitter he played against us on the opening day last season. Feedback seems to be good though, sounds like what we need. Welcome to Saints Tom! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matthew_irving 17 Report post Posted July 17, 2016 Best part of all these signings ( sutton excluded ) is they are all under the radar. I can't remember one person mentioning Walsh's name COYS 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stuart Dickson 4,266 Report post Posted July 17, 2016 Yep good signing. I remember him playing in quite a few matches for Rangers a couple of seasons ago when Stuart McCall turned around Rangers performances to get them to the play offs. I think I'm right in saying he came on as a sub in both play off matches with Motherwell. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hambud 3,136 Report post Posted July 17, 2016 Because we need good players who would not otherwise come here? I guess it depends on how good he is. Last season we brought in and played Paul McMullan and then did the same with alex Cooper. Neither offered much but did stop us playing our own youngsters which may have helped or curtailed their development. I guess none of us will know exactly what affect those two signings had on Lewis Morgan. Did it annoy and demotivate him or motivate him to work harder?

faraway saint 28,989 Report post Posted July 17, 2016 Just had a chat with a Rangers supporting mate who rates this boy highly. We're not in a position to refuse this sort of deal, haven't been for many years and ultimately results are what matters. If he plays well AND we're winning, the slight "stealth" moans that have already appeared will disappear. The majority of supporters are reasonably content with the way the manager has built our current squad, time will tell how long that will last. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Makes you wonder why many clubs have taken St Mirren youngsters on loan over the last few years. Oh, I know... those clubs got the services of decent players with something to prove and both parties gain something from the loan deal.

Sonny 8,656 Report post Posted July 17, 2016 Why do folk keep banging on about Lewis Morgan's chances? If Morgan is good enough to be in the team then he will be. If he isn't then he won't be. As has already been said when we sign young loan players from other clubs they invariably get a start before our own. Morgan could have had six month's more experience under his belt if we had not played McMullan instead. Do not think many would argue that Morgan looked at least as good as McMullan but never got half the chances to play. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
