Every goal Shaw got for them was in the Championship, and he hadn't scored at all in over a year before coming here. Good info and shows the differentiation.

Considering that even if we sign Brophy and A.N Other we'd have three fit strikers available. There's a good chance that youth will get a look in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brophy's a couple of years older and obviously played more games, but he has 46 Premier goals as opposed to Shaw's 16. Definitely been more consistent over the years, although there's the usual question with a couple of spells out injured. Think one was a broken foot, which could obviously happen anytime to anybody we bring in, but more recently a thigh problem. That's the January sales for you, I suppose - if we're even after him....

Wellfan91 Posted January 31, 2024 Report Share Posted January 31, 2024 Hearing Brophy wants to come as he wants a move back to Glasgow, no surprise Adams is reluctant to let him leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretzel Posted January 31, 2024 Report Share Posted January 31, 2024 St Johnstone are about to sign a striker from the Northern Premier League, delving way down the tiers in England for talent. I feel quite calm about it all as it's not unusual for us to get many bodies in on transfer deadline day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to their offiicial site, they already have 8 (first team squad 27 players in total). As far as Brophy goes, does Derek Adams just want shot of him or will he rail at the player signing for a very close rival? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's absolutely shocking. tbf mate i'm quite happy with that we have some poor players on the wage bill atm. Ideally I'd keep Casey Mcginn Miller Davor Spittal Bair Gent permanent And maybe Kelly if he starts performing to the levels we know he can consistently wait and see on the new signings.

thewelllfan Posted January 31, 2024 Report Share Posted January 31, 2024 Also am I missing something Brophy is exactly the type of St we need quick good movement and a decent finisher would probably help Bair aswell as it gives him someone to flick the ball on to 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pretzel Posted January 31, 2024 Report Share Posted January 31, 2024 I know the forward position is more pressing atm but I see Danny Wilson is on the verge of joining Queens Park, he might have been a decent addition to shore up the back but then again we have plenty options there.

We do not offer deals players will jump at. We offer deals that will get someone when their agent has no more spinning to do. I e. Last minute of the window. Mind when SK took over the same pant wetting went in on the January window and we signed 8/9 players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Stall Posted January 31, 2024 Report Share Posted January 31, 2024 Not a kettlewell boo boy but if we cant sign 1 striker in the window to replace/compliment or even give competition to the only striker we have (who was signed as a 3rd option prospect) then that is another black mark. Granted, some of that may be due to others at the club but its a shambolic state of affairs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yoshi-1991 Posted January 31, 2024 Report Share Posted January 31, 2024 Spending the window clearing the dross options we had in order to make space and free up cash only to sign heehaw would be up there as one of the most embarrassing things weve done in recent times.

MJC Posted January 31, 2024 Report Share Posted January 31, 2024 Jack Vale confirmed. A forward, which we need but his goal scoring record is unimpressive, to say the very least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wunderwell Posted January 31, 2024 Report Share Posted January 31, 2024 Google says. What is Jack Vale doing now? He is now producing (and starring in) several dramatic and comedic films in the family and faith-based genres. Fir Park sounds ideal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
