I'll leave it all to JG he's done pretty well so far, I plan to spend the close season smoking opium with my cronies...

Where Did It All Go Wrong - Top 6 target
Bud the Baker replied to faraway saint's topic in General St. Mirren Discussion
We're really up against two clashing clichés on this issue Over the 33 games whilst not always playing well or grinding out results (the last minute loser at Pittodrie back in October springs to mind) we did well enough to get to last Saturday with the situation in our hands. To counter all this it often comes down to which team handles the pressure situations better and twice this season we've come up short, against Livi in the Cup where JG left them in their comfort zone too long and on Saturday where I wouldn't blame JG for the players ballsing up the marking at the crucial free kick. -

How High Can We Finish This Season ?
Bud the Baker replied to shull's topic in General St. Mirren Discussion
No, the worst situation is where we need 42 points to avoid 11th spot. 7 St Mirren 40 8 Dundee Utd 39 Win 1 = 42 9 Motherwell 35 win 2 = 41 10 Ross County 29 Win 4 = 41 11Kilmarnock 28 Win 5 = 43 12 Hamilton 27 ******************* Accies games against Well & Utd. would be irrelevant in this scenario. We currently have a 25 GD advantage over County but the ultimate, ultimate nightmare would be us needing to beat Accies on the final day to avoid a play-off spot. -

I think he had been provoked prior to the game. But yeah he responded just like yer average BAWA forumster - with class and dignity... **************** Does Stubbsy post on here and if so what is his alias? -
Hamilton v St Mirren Sat 20th March
Bud the Baker replied to faraway saint's topic in Matchday & Travel Club
Lumping high balls to Brophy won't help him. I really rate Tait but his crossing is atrocious. If we play one or two wee guys up top we should be playing it on the deck to the team's strengths. Height isn't the only factor nowadays it's reading the game and getting into position first, that's how Accies got the vital free kick yesterday, first into position and let the big defender clatter into you. There is some merit in what you say but the allowed level of physicality is much reduced from what it was 20 years ago. We do need a front pairing that compliment each other - FWIW I still prefer the old big guy/quick guy combo... -
Hamilton Accies v St Mirren Scottish Cup 3rd Round
Bud the Baker replied to shull's topic in Matchday & Travel Club
April 3rd - our next game? Is this Covid season will the game go to a replay or is it to be decided on the day? ...and as I said elsewhere this is a must win game/tie now - so now pressure guys. I believe we're a better team than Accies and just have to win this game to avoid the possibility of the season ending on a downer. -

Morning after and looking back on the season there's been more good memories (beating both cheeks) than bad but the bad ones (Livi s/f, yesterday's draw) have been gut-wrenching. The Livi game I put mainly down to JG who left Livi in their comfort zone for too long but yesterday was just plain bad marking and the blame has got to be put on the players. As for the rest of the season I expect us to finish 8th and would consider it a big disappointment if both Utd. & Well overtook us but the main games have got to be the two against Hamilton - especially the cup game, by hook or by crook we must win that one! -
Playing the man again - absolute jibberish, from the self declared "Smartest man on the Forum" very disappointing. Nice to see you & Sue forming a tag-team, I'm struggling to thing of a more suitable pairing --neither of you have mustered a relevant argument today!

My prediction is eighth behind Utd. -
Was thinking that - how many in uniform, how many in replica tops. 🤔

Ain't nobody more middle class than you Cap'n - what's it like to hate yourself? 😉 ....and be continuously wrong for 12 months? 😉

That's two threads you've posted this "fact" in - just to be pedantic it's only 2 as Accies, Killie & County can't all win all of their remaining matches... -
How High Can We Finish This Season ?
Bud the Baker replied to shull's topic in General St. Mirren Discussion
Certainly shot ourselves in the foot this season, I think that if we'd handled the Covid situation better, not losing all three keepers and then having to play 5 consecutive midweek games in February we'd probably have picked up that extra point. That said we've got to fight to retain 7th place as both Utd. & Well could go past us. Heads up and we can still make it a decent season... -

Remember the days game used to finish at 4:40pm. -
Just pointing out you'd conveniently forgotten the racist aspect to the story but that's the oaksoft I've come to know and love... Apart from that I can't see anything relevant, just deflection - and a lot of it for someone who "couldn't give a shit".

One Conservative MP said "Love the flag or leave the country" a clear racist attack on Munchetty conveniently overlooking the fact that it was her white, male co-presenter Charlie Stayt who initiated the joke, there's a Culture War going on whether you choose to believe it or not. Nuance is clearly lost on you, but what era do you think Andrew Neil and his soon to be launched Alt-Right news channel (GB News) want to push us back to? It's a constant struggle over many issues, economic & social, but I was cheered up by the victory for the little people over Uber the other day...

It's the old "will we replace him with someone better" conundrum - at 30 I think he's worth a new year deal.

Just catching up on the news after 4 days at work and am amazed at the Naga Munchetty/Union Jack furore - not her biggest fan but this time I'm on her side. Prob'ly shouldn't be amazed though as it been clear for the last few years that "the Left" are losing the Culture Wars and that society is going back to the Victorian Era double quick style.
