Mr Optimistic

Watching women's fooball is the equivalent of golf fans watching a pub outing to Barshaw Golf Club. To be fair though the shootout was the funniest thing I've seen on TV in quite some time. Ive seen 7 year olds strike the ball better.

Penalty shootout was comedy gold.

One word. Brutal! So much for a reaction. So we have lost Boyd Munce, Hemming, Alebiosu, Olusanya, Taylor, Kiltie and Elvis. Not managed to replace ANY of them yet with even the same quality never mind better. Goalkeeper will cost us goals EVERY week in the SPL. Looked like a deer in headlights when the pressure was on. Cant believe we will start the SPL campaign with him as our No. 1 and the lack of quality is there for all to see. Only Mandron got pass marks tonight. Just need to hope that there are at least 3 or 4 incoming and ALL are better quality than we have at the moment.

It's a strange one isn't it? Played 104 minures for us and didnt start a single game. You have to assume that Robinson didn't really like what he saw and the decision was made to get money back and free up a wage. Even James Scott was coming on before him!!!

Exactly. No business gets everything right, but someone should have seen this storm coming. As you say, learn lessons and move on.

Typical of your 68,000 posts on here. Don't discuss or debate the issue but get personal. Pity because I'm guessing you know something about how disability and loneliness feels. Have a great night. Oh and for the record St Mirren admit, in a very long statement they made an arse of it!

Ok keeper for me sums him up

Looks like St mirren felt the package was too high and decided to look elsewhere. He was an upgrade on Balcombe but there will be just as good out there without that price tag.

As predictable as it is tragic. 68,000 posts, yes SIXTY EIGHT THOUSAND🤣, on a St Mirren forum and I'm the sad one?🤣 I hope being on here and behaving the way you do helps with whatever issues you have going on in your life. Have a great day.

The really sad thing is that in your wee world I honestly think you believe that.

Is it a family trait that you are unable to write 2 coherent sentences? Just about 'suns'' you up😄

There is no point trying to have sensible debate or conversation on this forum. The forum crackpot manages to take EVERYTHING to his level. Litlle wonder there is hardly anyone left on here but him and the other nutter.

Agree with all of that. Lord Clark also said some of Macmillans answers 'defied belief' No winners, all so unnecessary and at HUGE cost. I'm guessing the bill will run to 6 figures. But who is paying?

Sorry you have read it wrong. The judge decided there WAS defamation. He could not have made that clearer, but accepted the defence put forward from Wardrop and his legal team.

I thought the ruling was due sometime in June but I could be wrong.

Its like Groundhog day watching St Mirren at home. Lets be clear. Hearts were absolutely terrible. St Johnstone are awful, Motherwell the worst they've been for years, Ross County hopeless, Dundee bang average and Dundee United are poor....and theyve all managed to beat us. First half last night was best weve been for a while but only because of Olusanya (if he doesnt play we NEVER look like scoring) While I will never doubt this teams effort the lack of any technical ability is frightening. Fraser spends the whole game kicking or heading the ball into the Paisley sky, Taylor comes out of defence with the ball looking good only to get to the half way line and give it away and the least said about the midfield the better. Even the easiest passes aren't being made. It really is brutal to watch. The only saving grace is that the standard is SO poor in this league we may manage to survive. If we do it needs a clear out and far better recruitment. Not a SINGLE player signed this season has improved us and (apart from Olusanya, who sadly will be away) there isn't ONE player I'd be disappointed to lose. Hibs, Old Firm, Motherwell and Killie to come... apart from Rangers 🤣 difficult to see where our next points are coming from.

Do you think Taylor could explain to our midfield what an assist is and how to go about it?😉

Our only saving grace is that if you forget about the old firm and Hearts and Hibs (who both seem to have found some form) the rest are as bad as we are.

Ellery Balcombe, Oisin Smith, Declan John, Elvis, Alex Lacovitti, Roland Idowu, James Scott, Dennis Adeniran, Van Veen, Brown and Rooney... ELEVEN of them who brought nothing, or very little to the party. If we finish bottom two this recruitment will be the reason and the blame for that only falls at one mans door.

Can't you read? Not what I suggested at all... 'The rest are not good enough' 'the team lacks any real quality' and 'it will be down to appalling recruitment this season.' would suggest I dd not single him out though I think him getting a 30 month contract was a terrible bit of business.

If we finish in the bottom two (and without any quality signings, that is where we are heading) it will be down to appalling recruitment this season. Three ended up in court and have not been replaced and the rest are simply not good enough..team lacks any real quality. I mean what did James Scott do to get a 30 MONTH contract? Looks like we put all our eggs in one basket. A 20 year old from Palace (via Cork City) who has been a pro for about 5 minutes and hasn't played at ANY decent level. Beggars belief.

I thought the first half of the season he did well but was poor in the second half and wasn't unhappy with him not returning. Time will tell and I really hope I am wrong. First impressions (at Parkhead) I'm sure you will agree were not good. That said, the goalkeeper isn't our only concern just now.

Don't think he improved at all, infact think more and more errors crept into hos game and became unwatchable at corner kicks and free kicks into the box. Unfortunately we've replaced him with someone just as bad. The Celtic performace would have been funny if it wasn't so serious. Loan spell at Orient was a disaster and eventually replaced by a 21 year old. This from a fan..... 'He not only cost us 7 points in 3 games ( he only played in 10) but he caused havoc in our defence with his constant mishandling. Every keeper makes mistakes but in my view one of the worst keepers ive seen at orient in 75 years'... another said 'nice guy, terrible keeper' Not exactly a glowing report. Surely there must be better out there.

This is a council spending £52 million on a Museum (if it ever opens) saying it will be a world class tourist attraction. Can't even get the basics right. Laughable. RC full of people on big 6 figure salaries who are absolutely hopless and accountable to no one.

...and not a SINGLE arrest. Proof if it was needed that Police Scotland let Old Firm fans roll into town do what they want and roll back out. St Mirren have done a fantastic job getting them down to having just one stand. Wouldn't it be brilliant to find a way where they dont get any fans in our ground at all?
