    Two years of lockdown?
    That is absolutely insane?
    In your fantasy world, who pays the mortgages and bills of the millions who will be out of work by then?
    Who puts food on their tables?
    What taxes need to go up and by how much to pay for all of this?
    What do we do with cancer patients and dying kids?
    What about those needing organ transplants?
    What about the 200 people per day dying of diabetes?
    What about all those lives? All to be discarded because of 70 UK deaths a day due to covid?
    When your grand plan is done you'll have well over 1 million young graduates turfed out onto a destroyed emplyment market.
    You are insane and fortunately nowhere near a position of responsibility as regards covid.

    The results are merely part of the problem albeit a big one. 
    I can honestly say that for the second half yesterday, I noticed myself doing something that I've been doing a lot more when watching these games on the telly. I switched off. 
    Not physically, as the game remained on til the end but I found myself browsing my phone, drifting away onto another subject whilst the hopeless commentator mumbled a lot of stupid platitudes in the background and I realised, I wasn't f**king interested. 
    Anyone who knows me from off of here, understands and knows that when I'm at a match, I'm usually one of those folk that the commentator is apologising on behalf of for the language. I attack every ball mentally, I live on the edge of my seat for the full 90 mins... always has been the case... even way back in mid 90s as a ball boy when I got 'booked' post match in the tunnel for calling the ref a 'f**king joke' under my breath as we trudged past him following a controversial loss. 😂
    Point being, at the end, if we win, it's a boost mentally but if we lose, when I leave I make sure I never let it affect me personally or my mood outwith the immediate hour or two in the aftermath of the result.
    But as I sat yesterday, I realised, we're so mind numbing that I had my face in my phone for the full second half, I didn't care to mentally will the team forward or even get frustrated at them for misplaced passes etc, as the team, frankly are f**king boring.
    Not just shite. We've seen shite in the past, more times than I care to remember, but absolutely devoid of any ability in the opposition half, a basic competence of getting the ball into area where we potentially might score. When we do get into the final third, we seem to have stumbled into it rather than carved out a chance. My main criticism of Goodwin teams is that there is no attacking intent or finesse, it's a horribly panicked mantra of  'get the ball forward 50 times, one or two of those are bound to have a lucky bounce and let us in for a shot' and it's absolutely painful to watch. 
    I'm not in the Goodwin out camp. Not yet anyway, but he's about 3 or 4 weeks away from being untenable. Even if the results do turn, the football served will still be the gash were subject to. I don't mind a team hunkering in and grinding out a result when the pressure is on but we should not be performing that way against teams around us. It's an eyesore and a total turnoff.

    I don’t give a monkeys about peoples thoughts on Òran If truth be known I don’t like the way things finished up,I’m sure there were faults on both sides and I’m quite sure that one day the truth will come out but the man is part of St Mirren history and for that I will post about him all I want
    Oran and his family were part of the St Mirren family and that should never be forgotten I hope the haters enjoyed their night in the house while the rest of us were out celebrating the penalty shoot out victory

    Hopefully just a 1 game ban as there was clearly no malice involved
    Dennis in next Sat please, and with that we can work on our shape.....
    Fakes have been very unlucky however they will miss Craig, for me, its an awesome start
    Still undefeated at home this year, already with an away win on poxy plastic, a solid defence and a new attacker itchin to go.... Obika already has 2
    Having watched some games i can honestly say NO team is playing well, Hibs have been rank and have 13 points ??
    Sevco may well bow to much needed finance , there is def something bad happening at Well, Livi have just signed Stokes...
    So again IMHO, plus marks to Saints , County and United who have all massively improved and the table reflects that

    For us long standing Saints fans 6 points out of 9 is some start, the shape is so much better now , the players are better, the coach only knows relative success and the board back him...……. of course we will have plenty of bumps, but having watched the dross from the Fakes v Sheep last night , i don't think we have much to fear as one thing Mr Goodwin is grounded, and the players are def giving 100% for him
    I will take a scrappy 2-1 and get into the top 3
