I am not surprised McGuire has been loaned out, the surprise is the level of the team he has went to, with respect to Kidderminster I would have thought Barry could have played at least in a Division 2 team in England and Championship team in Scotland, I wish him well and hope he can get a better team by playing in National league.
He was rated by Alexander, and was doing pretty well in his system (for wuat its worth) before he got injured. Then we started wanting midfielders to play football again, so there was no place for him once he got back. He is also injured a lot.
Oh, he is also two footed.
I agree that we offered some weird extensions under GA, which seemed to be more about who did the dirty work that GA wanted, instead of how good they were.
Taken from St Mirrent Site:
"Due to no broadcasting cameras at the SMiSA Stadium this weekend and no PPV being permitted, we are unable to show Saturday's match live on St Mirren TV. There will, however, be live audio commentary for international and UK based subscribers."
Doesnt look great :(
Good points well said we are almost there with the cashless society and it wont be long till the photo ID 🪪 is here for everyone.
Well we have photo ID for work, Drivers licence, passport, and soon for voting.
Good points Grizzly. We are heading for a cashless society but we're not there just yet. Some older folk do struggle with modern technology and as we've seen over the past few months some websites are far from user friendly. We need all the support we can muster and older fans, many of whom have been to Fir Park for donkey's years shouldn't be sidelined impatiently.
I think it's a tricky one. The buying in advance deters people who say last minute decide they want to go to a game. Also although a lot of us apps ...online purchases etc , not everyone is technically savvy so needs to be fair to everyone.
All clubs do this so isn't just a Well issue
Good luck to him. It's like the opposite side of the Max Johnston coin.
Barry was at the club for over a decade, came through the ranks and re-signed at 22 when perhaps he should have been cut free. Quite similar to Cornelius who I believe we offered a contract (in terms of age and not proven to be good enough) .
Learning - players who are better than our level know it and likely to leave rather than re-sign. By 22 we should know if good enough.
The chances are
The really good players will leave before 22 ,we will get some cash for them, either development fee or Turnbull style.
Those not good enough will want to stay and we need to be a bit more ruthless.
We need to find more of the Hammels, Lasley's who are good enough but not too good.
Not easy , we could do with a gaffer who''s good enough and not too good to be lured away. Here's hoping SK is that guy.
