My all time hero. Has provided some of my best memories in the game. He was twice European footballer of the year, been an international superstar but he signed for MY club. 2nd division Newcastle who had struggled for years since relegation and showed no hopes of improvement. Playing in a half finished ground when money to rebuild had ran out. The stuff of dreams and his winning debut and goal v QPR in 1982 still one the best days of my life. My daughter and I were lucky to meet him at his Breahead place when we stopped off on the way to a saints game. I wore a retro 80s nufc top and who seemed like a random woman came and introduced us to the place. When we got talking she revealed she was Mrs Jean Keegan and promptly brought the great man over. Fantastic! He spoke about all sorts of things. How he remembered wearing that kit and asked if I could remember a silver away version which he said they found it hard to see each other in. He told us how he had been unhappy in his latter days at Man City, saying he had one or two awkward players. Onto the taking part in the course he had at Braehead. There I was trying to boot balls in the direction of some upright figures when a voice appeared from behind me. "Go on Geordie. Get your foot under the ball". My hero coaching me which only made me worse as lost any composure I had. A great experience and he signed my shirt before we left. Still treasure that shirt all these years later. Love the man. Thanks for the memories King Kev 💔

Nob of the day award yet again. 🤣🤣🤣

Eating my words on McLeish for today at least. For every call right. Went long when we had to which was the thing I felt was missing prior. Nsio was fantastic - good signing. KP done good too, however, Jake Young coming on today wasn’t in my bingo book lol, for some reason thought he was likely to exit. Well done team and manager today. I genuienly hope I’m constantly eating humble pie.

Enjoyable to look at......................

So, 6 points from 6. No doubt from teams that will probably struggle this season but there's been a few who had us down as certs for relegation, some rockets suggesting the club were gearing up for the Championship. 😜😜😜 As I said, last week, this will probably be a season of ups and downs so every point we get will be critical come the end of the season.

We have been the better team so far so if we are in big bother Falkirk and St.Johnstone are totally screwed, keep taking the happy pills mate they may work one day

Managing to come up for this one, looking forward to it.

Oh take me back to Love Street, back to my happy place back to the ground of glory, those golden days of grace where every cheer was thunder, where every game had thrills and heroes lit the terraces with passion pride and skill Take me to the north bank, to hear that wondrous roar ten thousand voices rising loudly, and twenty thousand more the saints go marching in would echo strong and long a sea of black and white as one, united in their song Take me back to 1980 Anglo Scottish cup in hand five past Bristol City, pride was sweeping through the land with Jackie Copland leading, standing tall and proud a captain of true courage, saluted by the Paisley crowd And further back to 1926 when history was first made the Scottish cup to Love Street came and legends were displayed with Bryceland’s strength and Lapsley’s class and Gemmell’s helping hand they carved their names in silver bright, the pride of Saint’s great stand And more glory Scottish cup days, when dreams would come alive 59 and 87 the Saints would still survive Through battles fought with heart and soul through grit and sheer belief they brought the silver home again to joy beyond relief The legends grace my memory, their names still shining bright like Aber, McGarvey and Stark on those electric nights from Bryceland through to modern days, their spirit’s still the same a tapestry of glory years that built the Saint’s great name Do take me back to Love Street where my heart will always stay through every high and heartbeat, it never fades away for though the years have moved us on, those memories remain in Paisley’s soul, forever proud the Saints will rise again.

Good performance yesterday and a step up from the Dunfermline game. Team selection was much stronger and new signings really showed up well. Thought we got away with it a bit in the first half but still had chances. Second half all saints and should have scored 2 or 3 more. McGlynn thought they dominated second half. Really ! Really like Nsio in midfield, adds physicality and looks a box to box player. Sule needs to find a finish but really promising. Not quite sure what the story is with Young but looked decent when he came on, maybe a future at SMFC after all. For all the talk of academy players didn't look a great deal different from previous seasons. Maybe Douglas, McEvoy will be introduced gradually but at some point they will need to grab their opportunity and be difficult to take out the team.

Yeah I'd like to see Young get a run of games because I think there is a player in there and he just needs more game time.

I thought we played some lovely stuff at times today, a fully deserved win and should have been by a bigger margin.. Love it how a win makes your Saturday night beer taste so much sweeter.. well done all..

Going to be a good night in Seamill. 🍻🥂🍾🍺

Happy forum. Brilliant, let's keep it that way, someone lock the door. 😜😜😜

Good game from us , good signs and flowing football, thought pretty much everyone played well, Jake young looked decent coming on and I think this style of football suits him better

he was not a season changer but unless it is messi or Ronaldo then no player is, He was a good young pro who did not look out of place and played better IMHO than soe of our own players

All Sit no Com. There was only one joke which was repeated every coupla minutes - Linda saying something inappropriate like "I can see your mons pubis". Shame as I usually like Diane Morgan. Best sitCOM so far this year is Small Prophets which is still on BBC iPlayer.

Instead of SMISA wasting their time on nonsense like this they should be asking what the hell is going on at our football club? This from an organisation who decided to spend SEVEN GRAND on a replica league cup. Absolute Amateurs. There is no VAR in the Championship or league One so we will not have much longer to deal with it.

Watching what has happened its IMPOSSIBLE to think anything else. Honestly. We are in for nightmare season. Feel sorry for the people who forked out big money for season tickets to be served up sub standard appointments on and off the park. Apart from Gogic, Phillips and John not a single player of SPL standard. Chairman and CEO responsible for what is going to be an absolute shit show!

Brilliant post mate. ❤️

Bit premature, we won the game and that’s all that counts. Falkirk out this tournament now, will they get relegated too? Along with the fakes perhaps who are also out.

Let’s be honest though, conceding 3 at home to a lower league team isn’t great. I mean - we recovered it and edged it - but we look a mile of competing at Prem level. I hope I’m wrong - genuinely do!

Sometimes it's easy to get misty eyed about players from our younger years but after reading quite a few items about Keegan he deserves all the plaudits that have been coming from lots of people and clubs that he was involved with throughout his sensational career. Barring falling off his bike in Super Stars 😉 he was some player and an inspiration to many. Aye, rest easy Kevin, there's a lot worse out there. ❤️

It's time to try and save this forum - first step - a lick of paint.

Not quite sure what you're expecting. Almost a total change in personnel. A different approach. At the end of the day, especially at this time of the season, it's all about the result.

Sellic drawn against LASK in the Champions League

Deserved victory yesterday. Should have been out of sight earlier in the game and worried we might pay the penalty for wasting chances. Thought Idowu did really well when he came on. Dare I say I'm feeling a little more hopeful for the season ahead.

Not too much protest after it was chalked off

He will be back unless we win next 37

Irony alert!!!!

I've just signed a petition backing the UK’s football associations’ decision to boycott the World Cup if FIFA’s plans to sell it off to private investors goes ahead. Add your name too and tell them to stand firm under pressure! https://38d.gs/t2e-

It is mate, should I sneak in a half bottle? 😉

I've just watched him, Infantino, say football NEEDS more investment. 😂😂😂 Football NEEDS? I would suggest football is doing pretty damn good as it is without becoming a cash cow for investors with no interest in the game.

That is a section of the support though, hard to please and with expectations well beyond practicality. Nothing gets decided after game 1 but Falkirk may very well have the equivalent of that tricky follow up album after the excellent debut. The pressure is on them. McLeish has a plan and if we stay up with a hardcore of younger players then I’m all for the new direction. Robbo is the best Manager we’ve had but virtually no chance for youth which kept being farmed out then passed on.

Infantino is an embarrassment to world football, right from the fake peace award to that Trump ar$e kissing episode at the final. The world cup had Trump written all over it

A young player brimming with confidence and ability. Of course he was.

Another interview to slash your wrists to by our manager and they are only going to get worse. Don't blame him, Do blame the Chair, board and CEO for giving him the job when it seemed clear to everyone he was FAR too inexperienced for the job. Boys fitba to SPL manager in one move!!! I mean really?????

What an arse.

Terrible performance which cost us a seeding I’ve got the fear for the season ahead ☹️

You do realised that you have jinxed us if it goes to penalties today......

Not like you to not see the sarcasm in my reply to the post which may be irony or is it just a moan not sure myself

Hospitality suite wasn't open with windows and door shutters closed and don't normally get a ticket to enter, just name-checked on a list. Were they meant to be in the directors lounge or elsewhere ? Sound like a chancer.

It's not elvis, too many big words. 😉

Merely an observation and an opinion on what I’ve seen in the games since he took over. That first half was one of the poorest performances I’ve watched in almost 50 years following St Mirren (not exactly there for the glory am I???). I really hope I’m wrong about McLeish, but he strikes me as being stubborn with his philosophy of playing Tika-taka style, without players capable of doing so.

Kevin Keegan OBE: 1951-2026

A bit later but at least you posted on the correct thread.

The fact that they are letting him take them is testament to that

Deservedly so, poor dive, needs to do better🤣

Up the leg eh her drawers as I recall. 😉
