Like the second and third tops far more than i like the home one certainly
Are we actually going to wear the third kit this season though? I know alot of fans felt ripped off after purchasing the blue and red kit last year. We wore it in pre season and when we won the Renfrewshire Cup, but never in a competitive match.

You seem awful wound up auld yin. Relax, it's only a commercial. Away for a wee lie down, i'll teach you about the quote function tomorrow
That post was made with 9 games to go. Dundees death rattle occurred post split, go and dig out quotes from after they won at SMP. I can't be bothered personally.
I never said Robbo wasn't worth a gamble, i said it was a gamble which was unlikely to pay off, and so it proved. Danny made 6 permanent signings last season, they were Adam, Smith, Robbo, Guy, Puri and Parkin. 2 of them never played ( 1 of whom has been since sacked and the other released ) and the other 4 bombed.
Robbo was so bad he was punted out on loan half way through the season. Parkin was rubbish and was rightly released. Guys attitude and dismal performances have been such that he has been told he can leave the club 1 year into a 2 year deal, i suspect he may be the next for the old ' mutual consent ' treatment. Puri got one half of football at Fir Park before being hooked off and he was never seen again.
6 permanent signings, 6 total failures, that's pretty remarkable to be honest. It gets worse though, this pattern goes further back. During the 2011/2012 seasons he made 2 permanent signings, Imrie and Haddad. You guessed it, both failures, Imrie a very expensive one at that. That's 8 failures out of his last 8 permanent signings, utterly astounding. He hasn't made a successful permanent signing since the summer of 2011 when Thommo and Teale et all arrived.
Luckily, Dannys phenomenal success in the loan market and the emergence of John McGinn superbly masked his transfer market short comings last season. When i say superbly i am of course referring to the cup win, the failures of his signings to lend support to our core players was one of the mains reasons for our disastrous SPL campaign.
Gary Harkins is Dannys 9th permanent signing since the ' summer of hope ' in 2011. Let's all hope he performs a damn sight better than the previous 8, he certainly couldn't do much worse to be fair.

His career record?

According to that article Steve Simonsen is saying we have been in contact with him. Would be a superb signing and is one i tipped last month. Steve has just turned 34, so is pretty much in his goalkeeping prime. He has played over 50 games in the English Premier League for Stoke and Everton and over 100 in the Championship.
We obviously need two keepers due to Adam and Sammy departing so would like to see Steve brought in as number 1 and Letheren or similar being brought in as reserve.

Really don't like it. The yellow piping looks horrible. This seasons strip was a belter though, asking for two good ones in a row is probably too much.

I renewed my ST without giving the make-up of next season's squad a second thought. Not for one minute did I stop and think 'Fcuk sake, Carey, Samson, Gowser and Mair might not be there'... Nor did I think about not renewing because Isma, Newton and Dummet might not return.
Squads being broken up, players moving on, manager shuffling the pack - part and parcel of the game. I trust Brian Caldwell, Danny and Tommy to assemble a new St Mirren 2013/14.
In my view, a totally different scenario from the entire Scottish game being fcuked up the ass by discredited bawbags at Hampden trying to tell me that I'm getting a piss-poor 12-12-18 set up and if I don't like it, too fcuking bad.

We sign him on a years contract. We put him out on loan immediately. He sucedes during his loan and plays consistently well at First Division level. His loan ends, we release him.
What was the point in that?

CHEERIOTAEf**k CHEATING CNUTS !

Because if your reserve 'keeper is 18 years old your 1st choice 'keeper has less incentive to be at the top of his game week in, week out. Having a two keepers of equal ability brings out the best in them.
C. Smith and Howard had good seasons when they were battling it out to be #1. Gallacher was excellent in his 1st season when he was up against Howard, and was rubbish in his 2nd season when DL made it clear Samson was in reserve. Sammy had a good season up against G. Smith, and hasn't been as good this season when the other 'keeper, has been unavailable for various reasons.
Just my hypothesis, mind.

I'm genuinely surprised by the level of support for Carey. He's never done it under Lennon. He's not fit or quick enough to play on the flanks and he's not strong enough to play in the middle. He's had chances at left back, left wing and in the middle. He's never strung together 10+ consistent performances in any of them.
He's a show pony. He will give you 1 or 2 magical moments a season with his wondrous left foot. This, does not a football player make.
Danny's made the right call.

Asda LinwoodEldersliePaisley must be doing a roaring trade in Pampers today.
Dry aw yir scants.
We finished 11th, Danny wants to climb higher next season, so some have to go.
Trust our League Cup winning Manager.

Motherwell have a lot of guys out of contract, Aberdeen are shipping 11, Hibs are a one-man team, Killie are going with kids, Dundee United are (IMHO) a club on the way down, Hearts are a fcuking basketcase....
Too early to clart our nappies... KTF.

Far more likely. There's no way they'd pay money for Kenny given his current form.
As for Parkin and Carey, no surprise and both correct decisions for me. Neither of them has nailed down a first team spot despite numerous chances. Time to clear out the dead wood.

And only 29. Would take him back in a heartbeat, and going by his twitter he seems pretty keen too. Would be good foil for Thommo i feel.
