Connor is exactly right and I made the same argument about Cody. Someone said it was wrong to get rid as he has gone and scored goals for the Gills. He's scored 5 in 2 seasons for us, and may well have gone on to do so again if we'd retained him. Sometimes a different environment can have a huge impact on a player's performance....look at McGoldrick before he game here. In DS's case it seemed like he was homesick for life north of the border, so him staying would likely have meant just more of the same.

You can only make the decision on the available facts at the point at which the decision is made. On that basis, the one to get rid of him was the only one to make.

Besides, St Johnstone play at a standard that is barely League One anyway, it's a bit like Roy O'Donovan going off to Singapore as he did and getting a load of goals, doesn't prove anything.

Was it Swanson that when he signed & had his picture taken at Ryton he looked 8 months pregnant at the time?

There was another photo at the same time and DS looked about a million stone!!!

Swanson was a talent. I championed his potential this time last year. A big step up was required, it didn't quite happen. Glad he is doing okay!

It is amazing people bang on about, Baker, O'Brien and Reda....Swanson had more natural ability than all three. But it is clear, for whatever reason his focus wasn't right. Mental strength is essential to the professional sports person.

Know for a fact that Swanson had 8% body fat in that picture. Pressley wouldn't sign anyone with a body fat percentage of higher than 10% and I remember him saying what Swanson came in at at the time. People have always said he's been overweight but it's just his build.

He was just fat and generally unfit rather than injured.
So was Micky Quinn but hey what a player he was for us.

He's fat he's round he scores at every ground Micky Quinn Micky Quinn.

thankfully pressley isn't the manager now, as I wouldn't get in his squad

I believe this is reason he went missing.

Apparently the police took them away from the ground!

Arrested for impersonating a professional footballer. Could you more arrests tomorrow.
