Think we have brought in another squad player when we should be bringing in experienced guys to get us out the position we are in.

An interview with the lad is on their website, appropriately made at Cliftonhill after he made his St Mirren debut in the BetFred match against Rovers. Click here to see the interview!

Yeah cos there is hundreds of them willing to come and play for nothing. Also how do you know he’ll be a “squad player” and not a young guy who can “get us out of the position we are in”

Also how do you know he’ll be a “squad player” and not a young guy who can “get us out of the position we are in” I never said there was hundreds out there who would come and play for nothing. It’s just my opinion that I think he will be a squad player as we had been struggling up top in Oct/ nov and the manager didn’t want to give the young laddies a chance then so what’s different with this laddie.

Euan East, Jack Breen, Sean Fagan, Jason Krones all 20 years or younger. But you’re right the gaffer doesn’t give young laddies a chance.

2 of them are 19 so of course it means something. Sean played a lot of games in the second half of last season... guess what age he was, I’ll give you a hint. The same age as Nick.

Well that’s my opinion on the situation so I’m sure time will tell if I’m right or wrong. He never gave the 2 boys who had been doing well way the reserves a chance when we couldn’t score goals so I honestly don’t think he will give this boy a chance.

Fair enough, we all have opinions, but you can’t say the gaffer doesn’t give youngsters a chance, he didn’t give a couple who you felt he should have and he must have felt he shouldn't. It’s as simple as that unfortunately. He, like you, has an opinion too.

I understand he has an opinion aswell and I hope he does give the lad a chance as we haven’t been very solid at the back so fingers crossed.

Everyone's entitled to their opinion and all that however you can still slate folk who are "great managers in their head"!!

Reckon albion1980 has deep pockets to fund all these "experienced" players wages too?
