    I'm not really bothered who leaves i find a thread about basically saying some of our players are crap a bit off.  I'm just going to wait and see who we sign and look forward to the new season.

    scabbydug37 reacted to Isle Of Bute Saint in Notice of Player Reference | Adam Eckersley, St Mirren FC   
    Shull the Dunfermline player elbowed Adam first but gets off scott free. Adam retaliated with anger, yes that was wrong and was a red card. The question i ask is how the Dunfermline player did not get a yellow ? Would love to see the stats for this ref  when doing our games. Been written on here he is a Saints fan i find that hard to believe.

    Do you really think that any club will pay significantly more in January and then loan him back to us, when they can get him for peanuts in the summer?

    scabbydug37 reacted to Isle Of Bute Saint in Syrian Refugees   
    As it turns out London tube bomber  Yahah Farroukh visited his family in Rothesay im sure i have seen him before . Wonder now if some sort of security will be introduced by Cal Mac.                                                                                               In Rothesay there are two male hairdressers more than enough for the male population these two owners are very disappointed that A Syrian was handed £15,000 to open a hairdresser in the town the help did not stop there as gudiance and fast tracked by the council to get the shop open.   Two local hairdressers reporting their business are being affected.  Its hard to understand for outsiders the lack of money on the island due to high unemployment. Very few have full time jobs lots of locals have 2 to 3 part time jobs.                                                                                                                                                                               Next up  bakers , the island has its own bakery,  Electric Bakery producing Bread , rolls, cakes , various savoury pies deliverd through out the island to shops and cafes. Electric Bakery employes 10 full time workers. Mount Stewart sell Artisn bread to the public baked in house. Co-op also bakes bread  in house.                                                                                             Next a local restaurant owner took ill and put the Waterfront up for sale dropping the price to £80,000. No idea who purchased the Waterfront but now another Syrian has been given £30,000 to open the Waterfront as a  bakery.                                                              Bute has a small comunity the Scottish government seems to have a complete lack of understanding what a struggle it is for local businesses. Yet throw money at refugees to open two business to compete  with local businesses in a high unemployment area is astounding.     Yes we all know Syrian refugees need refuge and not all of them are bad. However there are plenty locals would cut there arm off to get £15,000 never mind £30,000 to go self employed.  There has even been a brand new mini bus purchased to take refugees to prayers.  Nothing here is not walkable . From what i hear think this will be a seat the SNP will loose sadly.

    IMO, we have a midfield problem although the 2 Macs are good players, there is a need for a 'Goodie' type of player. That would allow the 2 Macs to control the midfield distribution better

    Just about calmed down after yesterdays debacle and I'm not just talking about on the pitch. We were beaten by a better team. quicker. STRONGER. more desire in all departments than us. Apart from Sammy and Morgan the rest can hang their heads in shame. The fans put in more effort trying to get in to the game than Mcginn and McShane did on the park. Conceding 5 goals in 2 games is not promotion form. Jack and James need to sort out our defending. What Eckersley and especially Buckie were doing we will never know. Not blaming ref even tho he was hopeless again. As for Dunfermline FC organisation 0 out 10. absolutely amateur.

    Dunfermline were very quick to get in to tackles. They made zure Morgan had little room. They well and truly up for a battle. We did  not come close to matching their commitment , however im sure this is a stepping stone.

    That was poor apart from Suttons header which wasn’t even on target we didn’t even have a single strike at goal so I would say more than the defence were at fault. Dunfermline made lots of chances and buried three of them. The second one, especially, was a belter. We were left dead in the water and the Pars deserved their victory.
    I must confess I left early for the train and missed the red cards. I wasn’t the only one as a good few buds skulked away from the ground their pre-match confidence totally killed by that dislpay.
    I arrived home to find the fecking cockatiel had snuffed it. Daughters were snottering and blubbering. He died after full time knowing the Saints had been knocked off their perch at the top of the league. Not sure if that’s what killed him but he fell off his perch and he’s no longer pinning for the Fjords. He is dead, deceased, he has passed away. I hope to feck our title chances haven’t gone too.
    To appease my mourning daughters, I Had to arrange a fecking Budgie funeral and hide the fact I was more concerned about the Saints being knocked of their perch at the top of the league than the demise of the Cockatiel.  
    That was one pish performance boys. You need to get your act together or our title/play off/promotion chances will have kicked the bucket, ' shuffled off 'their mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisibile!!

    Our best player today was Baird, he did what he was meant to do the rest around him the more experienced players let him down by not helping the young lad out, midfield no where to be seen today left a bigger hole in the middle off the park than what was found on kilbowie road and up top no support given in my eyes, bullied all over the park today. The ref didn't help much in my eyes either a lot of strange calls like giving them a goal kick and the ball hadn't even went to the line Never mind over the line. But credit must go to the pars played really good and deserved to win from the off.

    The way to play against St Mirren just now:
    Keep Morgan quiet
    Play high balls over our central defence
    Dungfermiine did it very well today.

    Absolutely right mate. And you don't make a lot of money on a 2nd bus. it's not worth the hassle. Being a former convenor i know how hard it is running one let alone 2. But if people think it's easy I don't understand why you don't run your own bus. if there's enough punters. it's cos there happy for someone else to have all the hassle.

    It wasn't a forward pass, it didn't take a nick, it didn't hit off the saints player. It was played back by the saints player who got to the ball first. 
    It was onside and the ref, on this occasion  made the right call. 
    I'm well aware of the offside rule, spent 10 mins or so arguing with a stupid Jambo at the Scotland game on Monday who kept shouting at Griffiths as he thought he was offside at every goal kick  
    Don't know where you sit but it was funny watching the rage from people in the west stand who obviously had a different angle. Everyone around me in the family stand knew it was played back by a Saints player.

    It didn't hit off our player, it wasn't deflected. It was played back (forward from an ICT point of view) by our player. Right call by the referee. 
    I'm sure TC does know the offside rule, you're just being a bit fussy about his wording. I

    Sorry to challenge your opinion but I actually thought poor Willie C got unjustified stick from many of our fans today.
    A couple of very strong penalty shouts went against us, maybe a braver referee would have awarded them.
    But he can only be praised for over-ruling his assistant for ICT's second goal. He got pelters from dozens of fans near me in W2 but it was the assistant who got it wrong, Collum was dead right.
    Makes a change, he usually is a complete tit.
