Unfortunately for SWFC this means EVERYTHING stops. Next to no decisions are made without the main man here. No kit release, signings or even replacement tea bags. 24 minutes ago, joelswfc said: As frustrating as it is, this is 100% the truth. I'm sure a few things are practically ready to be announced, but it won't happen 'til the Man Man arrives. Really 100% true. Well if I was working at the club now and I had to wait 3 weeks to be allowed to dip into petty cash for some more tea bags. I'd be fuming!

trev Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 I dont think Downing is what we need tbf, maybe 4 or 5 years ago. Still, as has been said, he is the sort of player Carlos likes, probably an upgrade on Wallace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Instead of wanting players like Downing who have been there done that, I really want us to go for some young exciting talent that still want to make their name in the game. The same way Huddersfield did with signing people like Brown and Mooy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting fact about Mooy, he was brought over to england as a 14 year old by Bolton, then got released when he was 17/18, guess who the manager was who released him?

If you mean that tweet with the coloured dots the first 2 were white & blue. That could mean us. Then there was a white dot & a black dot. I said in the other thread that I'd seen he's potentially signing for Swansea which would explain these dots. So maybe we are talking but not made a bid whereas Swansea have done.

I know a few St Mirren fans, he had a spell there and they can't believe how well he's turned out, they thought he was bang average.
