Oldfellow got a reaction from smcc in Plans for next season
The Aberdeen postponement is going to be the first of many due to Covid this season. There is no way this league will be played to a finish. The SPFL have crammed in even more fixtures than necessary including deciding to play the league Cup. There are very few free spaces to play postponed games. The obvious solution is to call the season now with us finishing equal third. Excellent season.

Oldfellow got a reaction from BuddieinEK in St Mirren as an employer.
All three Mcginn brothers have at some point been disloyal to the club by leaving to earn more money. Quite right too as they need to maximise their earnings given its a short career. Just as St. Mirren are quite right in releasing one of them when he is no longer of use to the club. Why keep a player on the books who isn't going to play? That would be mismanagement.
Remember also St. Mirren took on Paul and Stephen for a second time when both their careers were in trouble. That wasn't loyalty. Just good management.

I already have.
We won't see live football again this year.
Players will be out of contract.
Any attempt to complete this season would be with different players, ergo different teams.
I no way whatsoever a "continuation"!
My preference would be to declare the season null and void! It's what they would have done in 1939 when tv cash greed wasn't a factor!
Won't happen.
Second best option?
Finish season as it is with points adjusted to points per game played.
Far from ideal... But a legitimate option.
Beyond that... Corruption based on financial self interest! -

My concern with that is that we lose some players before the 8 games are played and Hearts and Ross County go out and splash the cash and leave us in the bottom two. I genuinely believe that if this season finished when it was supposed to we would have been above both of them.

Oldfellow got a reaction from jaybee in Coronavirus
So the Scottish government is setting up its own expert group which they say may provide different advice from the UK government. Just what we need at a time where national unity is so important. They've hardly managed to work with the UK government for a week without sliding into the our coronavirus is different from your coronavirus. Pathetic.

Oldfellow got a reaction from antrin in St Mirren v Aberdeen Scottish Cup Quarter Final 29/2/20
They will sell their allocation. Most of their fans that attend away games here live in the central belt. Always annoys me when they get praise for travelling so far to away games when the majority live nowhere near Aberdeen but not far from Paisley

Not missed by me at Livingston. No one bullying me out of my allocated seat, no drum and the atmosphere was fine. Only the result was crap.

Oldfellow got a reaction from shull in Motherwell v St Mirren Scottish Cup Replay 18/2/20
I wish tickets for all away games were of the sit anywhere variety. It would save a lot of misunderstandings and more importantly I can sit as far as possible from that bloody drum. I appreciate if a whole end is likely to be sold out specific seat numbers are easier to manage but how often does that happen?

Bought my ticket today from the St. Mirren ticket office. It just says sit in any vacant space. If Motherwell are selling specific seats it might become a bit chaotic

Oldfellow got a reaction from Copland 11 in Kirk Broadfoot
Is this the Kirk Broadfoot that was delighted to be back and wanted to finish his career with us?
Actually disappointed in his displays and never felt he was really committed. Having said that we cannot strengthen one of our relegation rivals and leave ourselves short especially with Paul Mcginn going.
