Could have been part of his poor return. His experience alone would be good for our strikers. Pull this off it would be great for us. Sadly I cant see it.

He was as well, watched him training many a time and he did graft, really excellent till someone introduced a football and it was all downhill. 😃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wendy Saintss Posted July 5, 2019 Report Share Posted July 5, 2019 Not harsh at all. He's not been very good at Aberdeen and despite all his 'graft' he's produced hee haw. Hence why Aberdeen are trying to shift him. I'm not really interested in strikers that 'graft' all over the place, we've had plenty of them in past who weren't very good. I'm interested in strikers that score goals and Stevie May isn't one of them anymore.He’s produced hee haw cos they’ve played him out wide and not as the main striker, where he played when he made his name.They’re trying to shift him cos they have Cosgrove as their main striker now.He’s still young. Played as a main striker, I reckon May would score goals again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djchapsticks Posted July 5, 2019 Report Share Posted July 5, 2019 Main concern about May - aside from injury record is that he's lost a yard of pace as a result of the injuries. He'd certainly be an interesting signing but Tommy Wright confirmed he's went to his chairman to bring him back and the pull of his first club just might be too great.

And any striker who scored 20+ goals last season is well out of our price range. Signing players who have shown in the past that they can do a job is what we are after. Andreu is exactly the same type of signing. Unfortunately, it is the market that we have to play in.

No need to nag on about it, perhaps he could flourish with us in a stable environment? Take him out for a good canter every morning, lets see him vault some fences, cool him down with a bucket of water over the back and get him some nosebag. will be difficult to coral him down at the SDA, he wont want to be tied down, or led by the nose.

southsidebud Posted July 6, 2019 Report Share Posted July 6, 2019 The question on him being any good for us is moot now - if St Johnstone are in the race it's surely a no brainer for May Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santaponsasaint Posted July 6, 2019 Report Share Posted July 6, 2019 The question on him being any good for us is moot now - if St Johnstone are in the race it's surely a no brainer for MayBut sometimes going back especially to your home town team doesn't always workout. Hes a hard working player no doubt about that. But his goalscoring record since his early days has been poor. When he signed for Aberdeen I thought he would score a few.

Cornwall_Saint Posted July 6, 2019 Report Share Posted July 6, 2019 At this point in his career it’s about stepping down further and further until he remembers how to score again. I guess the likes of ourselves and the fake Saints are the next level down for now. He may have been out of position at Aberdeen, but that didn’t stop him getting chances, and more often than not he was very wasteful with those opportunities.

But his goalscoring record since his early days has been poor. When he signed for Aberdeen I thought he would score a few. Agreed but I still reckon he will see St Johnstone as a far better option.In terms of how valuable he would be for us, it seems he has had wildly different experiences at different clubs. If we got the St Johnstone May we would have won a watch, Aberdeen May not so much. I'd have been tempted to take a punt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kemp Posted July 6, 2019 Report Share Posted July 6, 2019 A lot of talk here but we all know May won't be signing for us. His agent has included our name in the press to help with negotations elsewhere. He will be looking for a bigger club, and if he can't get one then St Johnstone is the fallback option.
