billyg Posted January 22, 2022 Report Share Posted January 22, 2022 Saw it posted on Twitter a week ago , by someone ITK , that he was working his notice and would be leaving for Tynecastle. I think we've already advertised the post ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linwood buddie Posted January 22, 2022 Report Share Posted January 22, 2022 We will end up with a trainee from the Kibble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Posted January 22, 2022 Report Share Posted January 22, 2022 (edited) How important was his role at the club will decide how much of a lost he will be. My view is he is easy replace and no sleep should be lost at him going. Edited January 22, 2022 by Tommy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maboza Posted January 23, 2022 Report Share Posted January 23, 2022 Was he not working in Pure Gym or something before offered him a gig? (Probably from Fitzy who first signed him?) Easily replaced I am sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cumbriansaint72 Posted January 23, 2022 Report Share Posted January 23, 2022 Not meaning to seem like a footy dinosaur but why does the game need a 'sports scientist' surely getting back to basics with good coaching, etc is more a priority instead of paying a salary for somebody to look at a computer then tell players what to do. As for the travelling Edinburgh to Paisley is hardly the other end of country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the travelling Edinburgh to Paisley is hardly the other end of country. Sports science is worth its place in the modern game. The constant monitoring of players during games and training allows the management team to assess players fitness and reduces the impact of injury. Mendes is going to a club with better facilities and better players. He will also be getting paid more. It’s a no brainer for him. Hopefully we can get someone in quick to help the management team. Having someone like Mendes who has a solid background in football is a loss moving forward imho.

Also, think of a St Mirren player wanted by Hearts, decent chance they'd go. Junior lives in Edinburgh and imagine like for like jobs, Hearts pay more. Why wouldn't he go? No basis at all for your claim as far as I can tell. Edit: Did someone not also show we were advertising for his replacement?
