 Chris Kane
Topic Originator: CrossPar  
Date:   Thu 5 Dec 09:30

Looks like he is out again this Saturday. McPake saying he has a chance means he`s definitely out. Decent player as he is, a club can`t afford to sign players who are hardly ever fit. Especially when he is our main striker.

Maybe you are right and that`s why McPake has been heaping so much praise on McCann so that the focus is on him if Kane doesn`t make it.

No way is he playing. Always the same when McPake says ‘touch and go’ etc. probably a big doubt for the Rovers game as well.

Really good player but our over reliance on him considering his injury record is crazy.

I`ll be delighted to be proved wrong but I think he`s missed more games than not. Astro not being a factor. He played at Hamilton and Airdrie.

Out of the 7 games he has missed 4 have been astro surfaces (Airdrie,Raith, Livi, Falkirk) .

His stats are 21 starts and 1 sub appearance and not in the squad for 7 since signing. He misses 1 in every 3 games on average. Scoring every 847 minutes last season and 825 so far this season. He hasn`t been prolific since joining but the team does seem to be worse without him. We have only won 1 game (Dundee united 3rd March) without him in the squad probably our best player but doesn`t exactly take much as the stats above shows.

Geez likely missing again!!! Will he make 20 games for us and if he does how many of those will he have even been match fit for?

Just as well we have a capable striker to replace him……..oh.

The drop off in quality when one of our top 5-6 players don’t make it is massive. I say top 5-6 as the reset of the team are not great and are constantly in and out of the team anyway.

According to the report on COWS Kane`s injury isn`t to the calf that has given him trouble over the years, it`s the other one! For that reason the manager thinks he has a chance of being available at the weekend.

He has featured in 9 out of our 15 league games so far this season, scoring 3 goals. Thats really the only stats that matters. 60% feature rate with a 33% goal rate per game.

Is that a good enough return from our top summer signing?

Regardless of where we train I`m confident he is one of if not the highest paid we have and he will probably miss 20 odd of our league games. If we go into January and give Mcpake money to spend we only have ourselves to blame.

At the end of the day, when McPake signed Kane he would have known it was a gamble, but it was obviously a gamble he felt was worth taking. I think we would all agree that a fully fit Kane is an asset to the team, so McPake was probably right in taking that gamble if he felt he couldn’t get as good a player at that time.

It’s looking like it’s MAYBE (still early days) not going to pay off, however if he can contribute 10-15 goals this season, then maybe McPake is happy with that and would take it. It’s hardly a Rangers, Daniel Prodan situation (I’m showing my age now) but it’s obviously one that’s frustrating for everyone concerned, probably none more so than Kane himself.

As for his earnings, that’s been the player and the club, some signed it off as affordable, but the club and everyone knew what they were getting when he come in.

If Kane isn’t on a lower wage with a decent appearance top up then we’re getting what we deserve. We knew all about Kane and possible injury’s from the season before where I have no doubt he saved us from the playoffs.

So going on Kane so far and that he’s likely to be our top goalscorer this season despite only making 60-70% of our games he might score what 7-8 goals. Is this a good return?

Only hope is the new manager gets a fit Kane and we’re set up better to supply him. He’s one of the few players we have who regularly performs at championship level.

`Only hope is the new manager gets a fit Kane...`

If Kane is injury prone, how exactly would a new manager change that?


Excellent point, we`re lumbered with him.


Maybe so but the complaints are about his availability which speaks volumes about what most think he brings to the team.

It`s a pity we`re not `lumbered` with a few more who could bring his nous, commitment and experience to the cause. If he`d had no history of injuries he`d probably still be playing in the Premiership.

If he didn`t have an `availability` issue we probably would not have been able to sign him. It`s a bit of a conundrum.

He`s only of use in limited bursts, I stand by "lumbered". On top of that a pretty meagre return for a striker.

Probably because his ability speaks for itself but featuring in less than 2/3s of league games this season is starting to make him look like a poor signing overall.

What was your point? That you’d rather we had players like Kane who fall intentionally or that we should see him as some kind of hero for doing so as that’s how the public perceive the two players you mentioned?

Personally, I’d rather players didn’t have to resort to play acting to get a free kick / penalty etc.

See him as a hero ? Where did I say that ?

My point is, just because players fall down with the slightest touch, it doesn`t mean they can`t be `better` players (your words) than they already are. It`s all part of the modern game now whether we like it or not.

He`s trying to give the fans as fair an opinion as he can about player availability at the time he is interviewed. At the same time he doesn`t want to completely show his hand to the opposition. It doesn`t matter what he says he`ll be shot down on here.

The biggest annoyance is how many games he misses. Especially when our options as possible replacements are either academy players or not good enough. We have a big chance to take points off a side also struggling and to miss a player who has been absent a fair bit already is a concern.

We have played 8 games without him and only won 2. It shows that we clearly don`t have anyone else close to his level as a replacement. But if he misses on average 1 game in 3 ( before last week`s game). Then is he worth it ?

We signed him based on McPake`s signing strategy, SJ fans warned us, they were correct.

Wee Eck St Johnstone fans warned us when he was on loan that he’s feked and will not play games and we’re half when they got rid of him and he signed for us…it’s obvious our medical examiners had a bad day in the office giving Kane the all clear for us to sign him….given his history I wander again if he was a cheaper option and a gamble…didn’t work.

See Wee Eck you come across as a poster who knows his facts so you tell me if I ever said the club was heading for administration…
You ask a question with “was it you” so you don’t have a clue if it was me which I can say it was not then sate I posted the most irresponsible posts ever seen on the forum which I did not.`


Alter Ego, if you say it wasn`t you who made that post then I accept that and apologise for suggesting it was you. I obviously misrembered. That doesn`t mean I take all your posts seriously of course!

As you say, let`s hope Chris Kane plays tomorrow and contributes to a good team performance.


Depends on the team selected by the manager

Kane is another waste of a wage.

The whole club is a shambles, not one player worth keeping in that squad. They are all miles off it.

I think ANY decent manager with (possibly just as importantly) a decent 1st team coach to work them in the training ground all week, would get more out of this bunch of individuals.

There is zero discernable style of play to break teams down.

Otoo will probably move on in the January or summer if we get a bid for him but as for the rest of the squad they aren’t championship quality.

A few are past it, some are injury prone and the others are just out there depth in this league.

This squad would walk league one again as that’s their level but championship is a step too far.

A whole rebuild is needed.

Geez da no 1 we’re almost on the same page at the moment.

A number of these players are not good enough, a large number. Mcpake next gig will be in league 1 which will suit him as he knows how to build a decent league 1 team.

We have quite a few players in this team that is mcpake hadn’t signed them or kept them they wouldn’t be in this league.

I’ll say it again, mcpake told us how to judge him when he was talking about McCann.

“When we first came into the club, we watched this player and both myself and Dave said, ‘if we can’t make this player better then we shouldn’t be coaches’. “

They were spot on.

Bullying him? He’s a full time professional footballer, if he’s bothered about what is said on internet forums it’s another aspect that will stop him going any further.

And it wasn’t a dig about McCann, it was a dig about the management team and how they have had zero effect on any of the players.

McCann offers nothing. How many headers did he win today and how often did he hold the ball up. Polar opposite to Hamilton for Raith won the majority of headers and kept the ball up the pitch.

McCann is a willing runner but is largely ineffective.

So out of 17 league games he’s taken part in 12 and missed 5 completely.

Looking deeper he’s started 11 games and only finished 2 of the games he has started.

He’s played 825 minutes of a possible 1530. So has managed 54% of the total minutes available, safe to say for at least some of those minutes he’s not been match fit and working back to fitness.

That’s just not enough, we don’t have enough championship level players so when he doesn’t play he’s badly missed.

Football is very much a squad game now, and lots of players are substituted - either for injury or by the manager`s decision, very seldom by the player`s own choice.

However, perhaps it`s also safe to say that he WAS match fit for some of the minutes that he didn`t play, and it was the manager`s choice to substitute him or not bring him.on.

When? I can`t see I`ve ever seen that. Even with young boys making up the numbers or when we`ve had 2 goalkeepers on the bench I`m pretty sure each sub has went for a stretch.

Not much of a stat considering half the pitches in the league are astro.

I don’t think astro is the issue as we train on one everyday.

I get the frustration with everything but I don’t really think over analysing whether Kane warmed up or not really answers any questions or even asks any questions. He’s a senior pro, it’s on him to warm up. If he was never going to play, he was never going to warm up. He’s obviously not fully fit but hopefully he’s in Greenock on Saturday and it’d be better if he helped us to 3 points. Probably more important to get something out of the Morton game than the Grangemouth game if we are being honest

Mcpake pretty much admitted that Kane was only ever going to get a 5 minute cameo if we were chasing a goal, singular.

I don`t have a problem with that, who was he stoping being on the bench? Briggs was the last player who was available to play to make a squad, on the 5th of October. No other available player has even made the bench all season.

I`d be pretty confident in saying if subs are stripped they generally warm up. This definitely is the first time I`ve seen it that an outfielder player hasn`t warmed up during the game.
