You can do that better by not visiting, or posting in, the John McGinn thread then. 

If anybody really thought we could threaten any of the top 6 this season they are seriously delusional.
The talk about competing today is a fair point, but Aberdeen will take 4 goals off quite a few teams this season, especially at home.
I've thought that the top 6, who are, in no particular order, Celtic, Rangers, Aberdeen, Hearts, Hibs & Kilmarnock, are streets ahead of the rest, and will hand out many a thumping to the other teams in the league.
Our survival depends, mainly, on what we do against the other diddy teams.
We've already beaten one, next week we have the chance to beat another. 
The level of panic after today, not a surprise as the usual suspects have been waiting on any opportunity to blame the manager since he was appointed, is amusing.
This season was always going to be tough, even if Ross was still here.
The club need the support they got last season, always easier to "support" when we're winning, for some.
We looked today what we are, a team who've just come up from the diddy league and are still in transition.
Can we survive, who knows, but the club deserve support as it's well documented the difference that made last season. 
 

I remember we got gubbed 7-0 at Celtic Park then beat them the next week in Paisley.

Hidings at grounds of teams like the Old Firm and Aberdeen are nothing new. Been happening for as long as I remember. We got gubbed at Pittodrie last season too.

It’s just part of supporting a team like us.

Now teams we've beaten are better than us. 

Bloody spell check

For me, Gallows humour usually has a bit of wit, self deprication and/or irony. 'Lol' on its own gives us none of that. It's the sort of rapid hit put down you'd expect from an Aberdeen fan lording it.

Enough for me, I'm off to bed

Niall McGinn injured in warm up .

Unbelievable the negative spin Baird gets -    yes he tackled a player and the ball broke to another, who had lost his St. Mirren marker and it led to a goal against us. I realise you say you like him, but all players make mistakes and some of these are costly....
Our new Man Utd star didn't do much of a marking job for the Gers 2nd goal?
Captain McGinn gave the ball away in the box and it could well also have led to a goal against us - though luckily it didn't. He's not getting pelters for that
Kpekawa had a block deflected that could have beat Sammy but didn't.
 
etc. etc.  Baird is a player who have been loyal and chosen 1st pick by all the recent managers - there is a reason for that - He is a really good player (Not perfect, but still improving - but needs the fans to value what he brings too - the dull stuff like defending, blocking, winning the ball etc etc..) Personally I think the one area where he needs to improve most is in his distribution of the ball - but surely Stubbs can help him there ?
 
I have no idea what Alfie may bring - but like you, will be delighted if he contributed positively...

St Mirren Football Club is delighted to announce the signing of Alfie Jones on a season-long loan subject to international clearance.
20 year-old Jones, who can play at centre half or as a defensive midfielder, joins Saints from English Premier League club Southampton where he recently penned a new two-year deal.
Jones is captain of Southampton’s Under 23 side and played 21 times in Premier League 2 last season.
Speaking on the signing, St Mirren manager Alan Stubbs said: "It’s probably one that came into conversations a few weeks ago.
"We’ve found ourselves in a position where we can move forward with it and we are delighted that Alfie has agreed to join us.
"He is a young talented lad who is ready for this next step and we are looking forward to seeing him. He’s six foot, he’s good on the ball, he likes to play in that defensive midfield position and he has played centre back, which is an added bonus.
"Southampton have fantastic reputation in terms of producing young players through their academy. We find ourselves in a fortunate position that we have managed to get the services of Alfie through the help of Ross [Wilson] and a few other people who have made it happen.
"In terms of fitness, he has had a number of games now where he is up to speed so he will go into the squad for Saturday all being well."

Happy to read today that we have tied down another one of our stars of the future Ethan on a long-term contract.

Good news. A future star ....
 
St Mirren Football Club is delighted to announce that Ethan Erhahon has signed a three-year contract extension with the club. 
The 17 year-old made his Saints debut last season against Raith Rovers in the IRN-BRU Cup at just 16 years-old. 
St Mirren Chief Executive, Tony Fitzpatrick said: "Everyone knows the importance our club places on youth and we are delighted to have Ethan signed up on a long-term deal. 
"In recent times we've seen the likes of John McGinn, Kenny McLean, Stevie Mallan, Lewis Morgan and so on get big moves and capped for Scotland. We've also seen Kyle Magennis make himself a fixture in the first team as has Jack Baird.
"Ethan has been in and around the first team and it's great to have him signed up."

Still makes me laugh that. Football fan humour at its very best. 

It's the way it's been constructed. 
Makes for a great atmosphere. 
Our Caley Stand was very steep. 

Honestly club need to make a statement on this issue
