Then he's not good enough for us.

My mother in law is an Ayr Utd fan. I completely agree

Nobody ever comes to my house. I have the kettle filled and ready. Sometimes it's just nice to talk to someone.

I thought it was the snooker thread until it was too late. I'm not really a practice what you preach kind of guy to be honest, I'm much better at glaring hypocrisy.

Why don't you marry Gogic....

Quite possibly felt in their fifties after watching the shite on show that night, Must have aged several years sitting through that

Signing Olusanya is only a good idea if someone else in the league is signing Rubi. He has not managed goals in the MLS, League 1 in England and our league this season. Signing him is no different to signing Lazetic and Yengi last season. I was not in favour of Robinson’s appointment and nothing I am seeing is changing that view so far. I really hope summer will prove me wrong and we won’t just try to recreate his St Mirren team in style and possibly personnel however, I suspect I will be deeply regretting my decision to renew my season ticket.

Don’t think he’d have me…

The Restore Party is just Reform on steroids. I know I go on about it but the mistake Rupert is making, is that he thinks Facebook bots are real. His pages have thousands of him praising his common sense policies He’s a senile racist wanker.

You must know my Brothers.

Frankly, Rico, I'm surprised you actively let this thread get derailed I'm sure there's a snooker thread somewhere

That's probably a fair shout. But that said, there are plenty of boomers on fezbook who use their real names and say incredibly stupid shit.

I don’t actually recall us trying to replace either of them properly for years. Certainly for goalie it was usually stop gaps and injury cover (and yes they were horrible in the main). Instead we took the easy option of new contracts and stuck with the status quo as making up the numbers was good enough for Milne. But hey, as the late queen once said, recollections may differ. I agree with your last paragraph which also describes Gogic perfectly, a guy who’s been a far better performer in this league than Olusanya will ever be. More Gogic types to steady the ship please, and way less Olusanya’s…

Lot of assumptions there Panda min. Wish I could feel so positive, but I just knew that was coming. I’ll be honest. They have got to be joking. The lad works hard and puts himself about - which is more than most of them have done this year - but there’s one small issue, he’s NOT A FOOTBALLER!! Seriously if this is the level we’re going for - backup or not (and I’d not be so sure on that one) - then we’re going nowhere. You think Hearts or Motherwell would sign that? Not a chance, and both of them have shown you don’t need to build a squad incrementally over time - one good transfer window with astute capable signings suited to your league and style can transform your team. Someone needs to have a word with Robinson, remind him he’s nae at St Mirren now and his budget stretches much further than Toyosi bloody Olusanya. Get a grip AFC ffs…

A fair point. I guess Olusanya is proven chaos, whereas those two are unproven chaos! Olusanya has the physique (height, basically) that Keskinen lacks against big centre halves, and Bilalovic seems to be quite weak and lacks the diligence to even do the forward role. Bilalovic looks like the type that has the potential to be good, but will probably never fulfil it. Unless he has an amazing preseason, I'd like to see him go somewhere in Scotland on loan for six months to sharpen him up and get him putting the work in. What's most frustrating about the Olusanya situation is that he, and none of the other options, are actually as good as Esther Sokler. With a bit of work, he could have been a great asset when playing two up front.

Keskinen could be far more effective at what Olusanya does if given enough of a chance. Especially if we're playing a 352 with no wingers, might as well use him there and leave whatever striker budget we have for someone who can challenge Nisbit for the number 9 role. Bilalovic also had a small handful of good games in the 2nd striker role earlier in the season and got a couple of goals out of it. Obviously the consistency was not there given his age and the level he'd been playing at, but another who's likely not to get a chance of playing on the wing every week that can be re-purposed.
