Kyle Cameron is the new St Johnstone Captain.

 

I believe Kyle Cameron may surprise some of our fans with his capabilities and leadership as a captain. I get the sense that he was aware of the impending changes and that prompted him to consider leaving. Some fans might be upset about his decision to leave and accuse him of being sulky about losing the captaincy, but in reality, he has devoted much of his prime career years to the club. I wish him nothing but success, it’s heartening to see him doing well.

It’s a strange transfer, but I can see the sense in it. St Johnstone obviously wanted someone to lead their team. Giving him the armband makes me think he will eventually join them permanently. Otherwise, why make him their captain? I also think Notts should have tried to get a small fee for him. I bet they’re paying his wages, but if it doesn’t work out, it’s doubtful he will come back here, especially after what he’s said.

I saw a quote from their manager describing KC as 'quick'. I like Cameron as a player, but quick? Don't think so. 

 

Cracking goal. Read a few muppets on social media losing their head, making out Kyle Cameron is a cracking defender after scoring against.... Brechin City of the Higlands league... with 1000 watching on. 

Yeah, the fact he was made captain straight away tells you the quality of the players already there clearly isn't great. I'm not trying to be disrespectful to KC here, I hope he does well there, but their manager only saw him play a couple of friendlies, not even fully fit and thought, "yep he's levels above these guys and I'll be starting him every game!"

I'll be interested to see how he does once the season starts, it's very likely he'll have a few good games and few terrible ones because the the Scottish Premier League is really odd in sense that that gap between the top and bottom is huge. It's like having a league with 2 Premiership teams, 2 Championship teams, 2 League One teams, 2 League Two teams and 2 National League teams...
