  1. Big mistake by the Government agreeing to allow 2,000 supporters to attend live football over the week-end. London going into tier 3. They already new last week that there was an increase in cases and still allowed it to go ahead. Don't think they took the health advice on this one. Watched Crystal Palace where they were packed behind the goal like sardines and obviously face covering was not mandatory. More comedy from Hancock to-night. Dear dear, said before don't believe a word he says.
  2. Your comments do not make a lot of sense. If it is "never be likely to happen again" but "if it somehow did". Anyway people like me who did lose money certainly have a different view from you on Banks and Bankers. Once bitten twice shy.
  3. Referee rightly correcting his error. He was on the Refs radar. Very bad decision not to have substituted even before half time. Thought Ref had a bad night. All the petty fouling and niggling spoilt the game for me, even McBurney standing all over the guy with the commentators saying he didn't mean it. I sure!!!! Did all this standing (or stamping) on feet only start this season?
  4. That vacancy was filled quick or she must be working her notice.!!
  5. Bob Paterson not a bad goalkeeper. At that time there was another ref. who also wanted the names of the boys.😡
  6. Willie Young. My a blast from the past Ian Byars , he was a butcher. !!!
  7. Gies a break as soon as as posted I new it was Pend. Given myself slap on the wrist. There is a few more, what was Kyles Dairy, diagonally opposite Whitehaugh Drive and entrance to Abercorn Bowling Club from Greenlaw Avenue.
  8. Antrim, thanks for comments. The "shortcut" was called a Pen which cut the corner of Lady Lane/George Street. The entrance/exit in George Street beside the shop led to a entrance/exit in Lady Lane. The co-op may have owned a fair bit of the property in that area since in this pen there was the co-op Joiners workshop and other trades. The building next to the Regal was their Garage where they kept the funeral cars and at that time the Parlour was (I think) beside the shop but closer to Lady Lane. Yes good long term memory but can't remember the last time I saw a good St Mirren game.!!!!!!
  9. Only thing you missed out from Lady Lane was the "shortcut" to George Street. I remember waiting outside 26 for my Grandfather. One of the few days he couldn't be bothered walking to The Bluebird in Causeyside Street. Was it Tom Smith the Butcher or the Off License your Gran worked in? Only other shop I can remember was Alisatair's the Dairy but that was maybe 54. Three Bowling Clubs in photo. Just to add to another debate , the Chinese Restaurant across the road from the Red Buildings must be in with a shout for being one of the first to open in Paisley.
  10. Has been available/allowed to take up new employment since 1st November. Bring him on.
  11. What I find embarrassing is our club captain, even in that capacity, not finding a place on the bench but days later manages 30 minutes for his new club. I take all Goodwins rant with a pinch of salt.
  12. Can't understand.................. Magennis on Hibs substitute bench to-night, six days after Goodwin moaning about lack of players to fill his bench.
  13. Maybe something along the lines of thank God they never offered me the job.😊
  14. Oops, seems to have forgotten to mention the signing on fee, company car, free meals, win bonuses etc. Nothing like pulling the wool.
  15. The other issue in the report shows the caring side of footballers.🤩 Derek McInnes says he has made a Financial sacrifice to go to Aberdeen. Hayes says he is foregoing some financial benefits but I bet it won't be down at a living wage level. Get real the tic wanted rid of him. What planet are these guys on.
  16. Great photo. Spent Primary six and seven in these building. On the right hand side but just out of the picture there was a row of tenements, the name of the Brae evades me where George McLean stayed. He was at the time of his transfer along Paisley Road West the highest transfer fee between two Scottish clubs at £28,000.00.
  17. What a photo, Antrim are you sure it is Love Street. Trying to trace my steps when I crossed the footbridge from Abercorn Street to New Sneddon Street but it is all a bit near the top of the photo.
  18. Problem solved. Continue this season from 12th March 2021. Doesn't look like there is going to be any football before then.
  19. We are not fan owned at this moment so no reason to consult Smisa or season ticket holders. The Board of Directors are appointed to make decisions. Why the rush to get a decision since IMO there will be no football played for a long time. Ann Budge just want's to get her way while the "iron is hot".
