Rascal Posted March 28, 2022 Report Share Posted March 28, 2022 We know that a lot of player movement takes place but Saints seem to have provided a number of players to other teams in Scotland. Hibs have 3 and Dundee have 3. Aberdeen look like they might have 2 come the summer. Any others in our top league? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Arthur Blair Posted March 28, 2022 Report Share Posted March 28, 2022 The SPL ceased to exist 9 years ago so any current players still playing it would need a TARDIS or a DeLorean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes indeed. Thought that might draw a point of order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopCat Posted March 29, 2022 Report Share Posted March 29, 2022 Off the top of my head only the Old Firm, Aberdeen, Motherwell and County don't have any ex Saints in their squads. You've already mentioned Hibs and Dundee: St Johnstone MacPherson Dundee Utd Liam Smith Livingston Sean Kelly Hearts Ross Stewart Probably missed a few too.

Hibs have 4 (McGinn, McGregor, Magennis, Doyle-Hayes), as do Dundee if you include Adam who was on loan from the deid club (Mullen, McMullan, McGowan, Adam).

Had forgotten both Magennis and Adam. Any at other clubs in the Scottish Premier League at the moment?

Rascal Posted March 29, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2022 Looking ahead to next season we could have a whole eleven playing with other clubs in the top league.. That surely has to be unusual other than for Celtic and Rangers? Or am I wrong and it is commonplace? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either, collectively we have an eye for talent and they move on to bigger clubs, or, we are sh!te at holding on to players of worth, or, Both. I know which side of the fence I'm standing.

Post Bosman makes it easier for players to move on. The fact that they are still playing in the top league after moving on shows that they were in demand. Being able to move them on during their contract and getting in some money in return would be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rascal Posted March 29, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2022 Add in John McGinn and Kenny McLean and we would have some team. Nudge down a league and there is Naismith at Killie and Broadfoot at Inverness Cally. Whilst in England and abroad we can add even more.

In case anyone didn’t understand the question. Would any of the players mentioned get into a Saint Mirren team . Naturally this is addressed to forum readers. Hope that helps. Jings. Otherwise I would be talking to myself and only one person on here constantly posts then answers and then posts. Still… it’s all fun.
