Absolutely stunned at that. Best record outwith Cosgrove over last 3 years bar the 2 cheeks. 29 league goals in 70 starts. Superb work but as always with Saints until you see him kissing the badge inside the stadium you always have doubts

Interesting JDH footnote

What a surprising start to the window if both Brophy and JDH commit long term. 

We look like it we're going in the right direction, that's for sure.

Maybe we are going to be looking looking closer to home in future as JG says in the article below.

Jim Goodwin loses key markets to Brexit
 

I actually don't believe Ireland is affected by this in terms of work permits.

All other countries though are now no-go areas for clubs like us.😫

Am I right in saying Brophy hasn’t featured much for Killie this season and if not why not? Just don’t recall his name being mentioned much recently, either as a scorer or on Sportscene or the like. 

He turned down a new contract I believe. Both him and O'Donnell were in discussions last  season to extend their deals. O'Donnell walked and Brophy turned down an extension to 2023 !

At least Danny Rodgers is putting his best foot forward backwards

If true and we can negotiate getting him now, it really could bolster the squad. 
 

we can but wish, but one more ‘creative’ player in the fold too would really propel us. 
 

I also expect to see a few go in this window.

Taking a step back for a second, it maybe shouldn't surprise us that we've beaten off Aberdeen, Hibs and Motherwell.

All of those clubs run at significant losses normally but this season they are probably already running significant enough losses that without fans, they can't afford to add to it.

I don't think St. Johnstone are more attractive than us and coming to us, he won't have to relocate.

A club like us, where we have no debt, are maybe coming into our own because of the pandemic restrictions. Maybe we're seeing evidence of a levelling of the playing field.

He's played 17 games with 3 goals this season according to Wiki.

For financial reasons cause by the virus, the club may have to wait till we know for certain what league we are in next season before offering new deals. 

Looking like i was well wrong   :lol:

Even if we don't get Brophy, at least we are making good effort to improve the team at the right time.

Maybe I’ve just got the fear given our track record with this kind of thing, but if Brophy signed a PCA yesterday as has been suggested, why wouldn’t it have been formally announced today?

Maybe holding off until they thrash out whether he can move now or not?

I rarely get involved in posting about new players, I prefer to wait and see how they get on, even then, I'm not overly critical of individuals too often as there's usually more to it than meets the eye.

The only reason I'm posting here is I believe this guy, Brophy, could be a great signing.

Reasonable pedigree in the top league, reasonable goal scoring record, again in the top league and we've heard of or seen him.

Not the usual 3 minute You tube snippet that makes many players look good. :lol:

He's at a cracking age and, given the right support, could cement out current position, or improve it.

Saying all that, if he fails miserably, I'll just say I posted this for the sake of it. :wink:

Morias away to boreham wood until end of the season, imagine that’s him done now with us, all the best junior, can’t fault your effort

Outside of Saints, his goal scoring record is pretty decent - just short of 1 in 4.

He was even doing that at League 1 level.

No idea WTF happened to him up here but I hope he finds his feet again at his former club.

Some players can handle it up here, some can’t, seeing he’s quite a strong fella you’d expect a bit more from him, always looked to cause defence trouble but final product and that one extra touched seemed to always let him down, wish him all the best!
