January is a very quiet have seen it myself living here add in fuel cost for low volume customers then you are as well taking the yearly holiday rather than the summer months so me and the wife are going away to the sun for 10 day's. Really pleased how things are going have a lot of repeat customers which is great as locals get you through the winter. Will also be able to do a three day hygiene course in Glasgow that gets you a top rating in hygiene, for the shops that will be good , want a beer and wine license if you have every certificate possible it helps your case for a alchol license. Really missing watching Saints so thank God for Youtube for our highlights. Will be at every game out with my holiday. Feel we can really win this league.

turrabuddie Posted December 6, 2017 Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 Hearing Wilo Flood may be out injured for this game. I hope so as he always seems to get away with murder against us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faraway saint Posted December 23, 2017 Report Share Posted December 23, 2017 Opened up quite a gap between us and the 3rd placed team. In reality we can forget about any other team, bar United for a while. (Barring a total collapse and I honestly don't see that happening after our recent run of form) Should be a cracking game, and on the telly into the bargain.

Don't we get money for BEING on the telly which, I'm sure, will end up with us making more? Glad it's on the telly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will certainly reduce the away support by a fair amount, but with them winning today more of them than normal might appear. Someone said the telly money goes into the big kitty to be shared out at the end of the season to all the teams so shame if that is the case.

As you say, United should still bring a decent support, more so as many will be on holiday so coming through on a Friday won't be as bad as a "normal" Friday.

Mr Zo Posted December 23, 2017 Report Share Posted December 23, 2017 Can't wait for this game! Going to round up a few lapsed saints fans and non saints fans get them down to this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote It was mentioned that TV money for cup games is much lower now at £32.5k. The rest is now put in the prize fund for the tournament so you'll get more if you progress Courtesy of Thorizaar. We do indeed get money for cup games, so might be similar for league games. Will it cover any potential loss incurred due the stay away fans? Possibly.

Someone said the telly money goes into the big kitty to be shared out at the end of the season to all the teams so shame if that is the case. Seen on P&B that united have sold all of their 600 allocated tickets, with a further 1000 available on the night. With 600 sold so far, would hope to see around the 850-1000 mark which coupled with the money from TV, might not be too bad! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
