Guest fabio Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Just a thought but if he has 2 years on his current contract won't we have to match or offer 3years surly not a 1year rolling contract Anyone know hiw long he has left at Saints ?
Brizzle Jordan Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 He has 18 months left at Saints. I think we will offer a 3 and a half-year contract. I asked the question yesterday to Saints fan and apparantley in his time there he has signed three 2 year contracts.
Guest fabio Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Thanks for the info I for one am excited about him. although Saints have no support and the spl with the exception of 2/3 clubs is championship football at best with no funding he has done a great job. so with 12-15 k support and a good team on paper with a few loans he could be the next big championship new comer . I hope so if he comes

I hope so if he comes I agree, we have good side going forward. If he can sort out a defence and goalkeeper who are solid with a leader or two we will improve. His biggest task will be shipping out the useless players at the end of the season to trim the wage bill and get a tighter knit squad.

I wonder if he'll be trying to sign any of his St.Johnstone players in January? My main concern is another influx of below par Scottish players.

That will be interesting. I guess his experience of playing in the championship and prem he will know if players are up to it or not. I guess for every Brian Mitchell there is a Charlie Adam. If he bought in some one that may not be the best footballer but could at least organise players on the pitch, that would be a step forward. We are missing a good vocal organisers, and have done for some time.
Isawjonshaw Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 I hope he does bring some in, hopefully they'll be hungry for it. Let's face it, they can't be much worse than some of the dross we currently have.....

My main concern is another influx of below par Scottish players. That's a valid point. I've put up with watching an old SPL hack at left back for years now, not sure I could take too many more.

Brizzle Jordan Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 I'd like him to bring along a Shaun Derry type player. Not effective with the ball at his feet but will definatley lead a team and command respect.
Hicksy-BCFC Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Just to add here - he hasn't signed, he is not confirmed as our Manager. We MAY still get someone else in charge!!
TRL Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Worst player I ever saw in a city shirt. But I believe his dad died around the time he signed, so that may have something to do with it. But he looked downs league standard

Hicksy-BCFC Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 We may but whoever we appoint, you wont be happy with. Dave Jones will get my approval.
TRL Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Dave Jones will get my approval. Thankfully not the boards
