I saw McGovern play for Saints at Gretna 2 seasons ago- and he was the reason we got stuffed. No communication with back 4, hopeless under a high ball, and clueless as to where his own posts were. Not a great aquistion, but cheers for MacLean!!

luggy'sback(2goal) (U10744304) posted Jun 17, 2008 st200, why do saints seem to have keepers on loan all the time? Can't they sign one for real? posted Jun 17, 2008 Ok did you not think your defenders may have been pash? Also you said yourself he came on emergency loan and played 1 game. How is the Goalkeeper supposed to communicate with defenders he doesn't know and hasn't spent anytime knowing? Personnaly I have slightly more faith in the Celtic youth system than the Sainties back four. Although don't you worry if theres one man in Scotland who can get the best out a young player its Tangerine Levein

SmithyTheArab - Andis Shala is my hero. He's a sexy beast and his name sounds super cool! (U8317395) posted Jun 17, 2008 Which Scottish kid is this goon? McGovern's Northern Irish and Shala's German. Looks like your name is appropriate! DUUUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRR!!

djjoeysaint (U10959325) posted Jun 18, 2008 Think it's great to add young talent to an ever growing and impressive squad. Levein's done brilliant for us, let's hope his choice in the 2 lads are the right ones. We need another decent striker to play up with Noel Hunt. Let's hope we can get the money now to bring Willo Flood back for good!

At least if players come to teams like St.Johnstone on loan and they are guff then unlike the oldfirm who snap up decent scottish talent and they are paid xgrand for doing nothing but sitting on the beanch getting splinters in ther backside or they are in teh stands. With loanees then if they are guff then yuo can send them back to their feeder club who pick up the wages for them to do nothing.
