But then you see him sort of with the inexperience coming through.
he started to crack a little bit you heard in his interviews you looked at some of the games people were talking tactically and that's all a learning cover of course it is because that's a giant step he took plus the fact the responsibility to keep St Mirren in the league now he achieved that and you have got to give him all the credit in the world I like the way he speaks I like everything about him
I think looking at St Mirren last night, it's a bit of a job to get them going again.
I looked at a few of their players and I wasn't impressed.
I wasn't impressed with them at Fir Hill.
I thought that Fir Partick could have probably taken a couple of chances and put them under severe pressure.
But I don't know how St Mirren are going to look at that, whether they're going to say yes, OK.
You have to get rid of a few players, you've got to then recruit, bring in your own players, bring in your own style of play because he's sort of a, at the beginning everybody was giving them pat on the back, oh he's changed this Steven Robinson style of play and he's let the players go and do a little bit more freedom, oh it's looking great and then all of a sudden they're nearly relegated.
So there's a fine balance.
So for me, if I was St Mirren, I'd look and think, has he learned enough in this short period of time?
When you're talking to him, you'll probably understand that.
You'll look back at his interviews, look back at some of his decisions he's making and you're thinking, right, but he kept his there so he deserves the opportunity.
They're big questions for a board and they've got to be answered because St Mirren can't find herself back in that position next year.
Craig, why do you want him to be the captain?
Because he was the captain of Hearts?
make that option but yeah I'm not listen I think he's a fantastic signing I think he's a brilliant player I think he's added so much to his game as well apart from goals but he's a big big game player for me put the ball in the box and when it's needed he'll step up and score but I'm not buying into this let's bring him into Rangers and make him captain right away I'm not saying that he couldn't do it the reason he was a captain was because he was the biggest player at their club and
Derek McInnes went in there and the first thing he had to do was convince him to stay at Hearts because his contract was up they were stopped then he was going to go to Rangers so that chat of look you're so important to me you've got to be the captain of the club and whatever this is a different ball game for me because as much as Craig's saying yeah make him the captain this is the first sign of the summer transfer window you don't know if Rangers have got to bring in a
another big leader from another club that you think right okay he should be the captain all I'm saying is look could they take that responsibility 100% I've no doubt in that because I think that's what the guy can do but I me personally I would bring him in
I would look at the next one that's coming in, the next two or three, see who I've got, decide my captaincy and let Laurence Shanklin just go and play and score goals because let me tell you now, if he plays most weeks, keeps himself fit and Rangers get the right service, he will certainly score goals.
No, you can talk about... People will maybe throw in a wee argument about Butler, goalkeeper.
