  1. While it's good to hear rumours, as it shows we're actively working on targets, stories like the Scott Fraser one always make me nervous. We've seen County bring in a couple today and Dundee adding a defender from Everton. Done deals. We get a story that we're in for a player as he desperately wants to get back to Scotland but we haven't agreed any deal and there are still 'hurdles'. It could be that his agent has been a busy man and every team in Scotland knew his status already but half-expecting to see Fraser and Craig Levein grinning as Fraser holds aloft a St Johnstone scarf in the next few days.

    St Mirren fans will fill the South Stand and might be given part of the POD Stand. They'll also buy up tickets for the East and Cooper Stands. A massive away support. 

    I saw the highlights of their game at Livi and they looked as if they had sold out at least a couple of rows of seats in one section. Drove the crowd up to just over 2,000. To be fair though it was scheduled at an unusual time, 3pm on a Saturday.

    Its a pity that a good keeper like that is sitting watching not playing, equally as good as Carson, Randolf etc its a waste of a career but money talks

    A wee look at Randolph's career stats suggests he's had a similar gig at West Ham then Bournemouth for a couple of seasons too. Not exactly played many first team games.

  4. Over the last 5 or 10 years we've been told that a good few of the teams at our level have struggled to compete with National League sides when it comes to signing players. It looks like the English FA are planning on changes to non-league players contracts (including the National League) that will restrict the wages clubs need to pay them when injured. Wonder if that might make a few players reconsider their next career move if there is a risk of dropping to a hundred quid a week if they pick up an injury.

    Should be a CB in soon 

    I see Scott Burns tweeting that Josh Kerr, ex-Celtic and Brighton centre-half has terminated his contract with Bohemians in Ireland. Also played for Airdrie, comes from Coatbridge. 

    A possible as a backup?

  6. Another sign of a lack of leadership at the club? We need strong characters on and off the field, instead we have players complaining about the fans shouting at them. We need coaching staff and senior players pulling everyone together, feck it, if they feel hard done to then use it as a motivation to instill a seige mentality, don't moan about it on social media.

    I've spoken to another few fans who are close to chucking it for the season at least, especially after Saturday. The players might get their way and be playing to even more empty seats before they know it (though since they struggled in front of empty seats during the lockdown season it might not be any better for them).

    Just checked it out Big Dykstra was in goal for his first start, game to remember.

    Aye, I remember one of our fans asking one of players (Maskaant?)  what the keepers names was during the game and then telling people round about he'd said it was Simon. Simon/Sybrand, sound similar I suppose.
