shull Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 The start of what will be a difficult and exciting campaign. We can be promoted, of that I have no doubt. Jack will sort it. Very hard match to start with against a Team who will get lots of cheap free kicks due to the diving and cheating from Loy, Miller and Hippolyte. However, we will overcome St Mirren 1 Falkirk 0 Crowd 5287 PREMIERSHIP HERE WE COME Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St.Ricky Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 The thing I most hope comes true Shull is the size of the crowd at over 5,000 Not losing would be a good start to the campaign. Winning would be even better!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eastlandssaint Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 A poor recent home record in this fixture. Hopefully get a point on the board right away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billyg Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 They've always got a grit about them that we don't possess just now. Fearing the worst ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pondsman Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 After the last two performances I'll settle for a point against a team that's likely to be challenging towards the top of our league. Hopefully we'll have some of our injured players back by then and a bit more fight in our bellies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then they went down to ten men and I thought we would beat them. Then they went down to nine men, and I nearly creamed my pants at the thought of a St Mirren captain lifting the League Cup above his head while 35,000 of those cnuts shuffled out of Hampden staring at their shoes... then we fcuked it up. Those fcukers should have been put away and sent home to count the cash in their latest EBT envelope. Was Hammarby bad? Damn right it was. Nothing I have ever experienced watching St Mirren even came close to how bad I felt exiting Hampden after that 2010 final. Not Hammarby, not the Gretna away cup defeat, not the ball through Billy's legs defeat at Dens, not even seeing the bib strip for the first time.. I genuinely thought that 2010 defeat was so crushing it could set our club back for years. That's why 2013 was so sweet - a mere three years later we consigned memories of 2010 to Room 101.... we righted a wrong, won the goddam thing.... and in style too. A come from behind thrilling final 3-2 win. A classic final with great goals. Sometimes I still don't believe it. That's not the St Mirren way. To suffer the ultimate kick in the baws to one of 'them' but not to suffer forever and a day regretting our implosion? The stuff of dreams. Hammarby? Bad enough, but not even close to the stomach churning let down of 2010. Looking back at Hammarby, we were crushed because we fcuked up in European competition. That's where we were, playing in, and expecting to win in, European competitions. Christ, I'd take a 'Hammarby' every season to be back at that level of competition.

shull Posted July 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 Hammarby wasn't any worse than losing to Livy or Thistle in our last 2 Games. BEATING EDINBURGH CITY WAS WORSE THAN HAMMARBY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything you say above is true, yet I can honestly say that I felt worse walking out of Love Street after the Hammarby game, than I did walking out of Hampden after the Rangers game. Maybe it's an age thing. I took football far more seriously when I was young. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
