    My daughter is attending her first game of the season with her friend. Both are heading along to the panda club for the first time ever.

    My wee boy is also heading along to the panda club and both of them can't wait. Between them they have about 7 or 8 St Mirren kits and we were sussing out who was going to be wearing what strip on Saturday.

    I am not sure if it was the sweeties she had brownies tonight or the thought of seeing Lewis Morgan in action that was getting her so excited.

    Anyway they are both looking forward to the game as is their daddy so let's hope we put on show and get a great team performance and a fine home win.

    I think we might see our biggest league win of the season on Saturday.

    St Mirren 4 QOS 1

    What a great time to be a buddie.

    Is it Saturday yet?

    Good luck taking girls to The Panda Club, I took 2 girls there before the game on 6th January, they lasted 5 minutes before the boys had both of them in tears.

    Got to be a good chance of an away game to one of the "foreign" teams.

    I make it roughly 1 in 8 chance. There is 4/15 or 26.67% chance to get drawn against an 'interesting"  team, Wales, NI or Cove. Plus the 50/50 chance of them being drawn at home makes it about 1/8 chance to be away to an "interesting" team. That would probably come down a snotter if they still keep the NI teams apart. And presuming that Linfield are allowed to play at home on the 7th/8th after NI playing on the 5th October. 

  3. For anyone that is really desperate, bet365 has the Clach game listed as "live in play" that means a pretty decent real time live text update, along the lines of, Buds attack, buds dangerous attack, shot on target, goal, shy, corner etc, pretty decent option if you can't see it live, and you don't need to be logged in to get this service.  

     

    Oh aye and a nonsense price of 1/5 for a Buds victory

    I paid £8.99 the other week when they played Raith which covered me for a month.

    Overall, better value than St Mirren TV.

    Even for this game, still decent value when you consider traveling, admission etc.

    Leaves plenty for beer. :rolleyes:

    Really? I was 66.47 GBP for the season, that sounds better value than 8.99 a month?

  5. Born in Sunny Govan, a buckie bottle throw from Ibrox, moved to Brodie Park area from Kilbarchan when I was 9 months old, my first Saints memory was Oldham in The ASC in 1978. Was a season ticket holder from teenager (82 ish)to when I went to Oz backpacking in 97. Once had a run of 175 home games without missing one. Almost had a full home and away season one year but my brother had to get married on a Saturday!!

    Now been in Atyrau, Kazakhstan for the last 10 years, watch St. Mirren TV when I can, kick offs at the wrong time usually, 7/8pm on a Saturday night, family to be fed, pubs to visit. 

    Miss the Jolly Beggars bus, some funny drunken times on that bad boy.

     

     

  6. Sportingbet had Hearts (wrongly I agree) at 17/4 to beat ICT on Saturday, I managed to get a fiver on , the buggers refunded my fiver a few hours later with not even an email telling me. I know there is "boardmarkers error " rule in betting shops if you get some daft lassie signing for the wrong odds on a line but this is the first time I have ever seen such a mistake on line.

    I was at that game too and also remember the bother in the ground. This was my last Scottish Cup run before leaving to Jersey. Think we beat Falkirk in the next round after a replay which I couldn't make it to for some reason, but I remember going to the quarter final at Tynecastle the week before I left. We got tanked 4-1 but I'm sure Campbell Money either got sent off or carried off early doors and it was the days before sub goalies.

    i left Paisley the following Saturday and the next Scottish Cup tie I attended was a little game in May 1987.

    Possibly because the Falkirk replay was the next night, the only time in my memory we have played 2 first team fixtures in 2 days (outwith friendlies)

    Seem to remember a trip to Methil in the cup in the mid 80's maybe, it was a freezing cold day and a goalless draw, won the replay though. I'd take a repeat.

    I just posted this to FB, " Had to check wiki for the year (turns out it was '86) but the rest is from my memory of when we last payed East Fife in the cup. Think it was Jim Rooney that scored a last minute equaliser at Methil, then Stevie Clarke scored one of the best goals I remember seeing at Love Street in the replay in a 3-1 victory. "

    You might also be able to stream the game, VIP League is normally the one that i use. Also game is on bet365, just create an account and deposit £5.00 and you can watch it (small screen though)

    Not according to my bet365, bet 365 usually have the Alba games but not usually if it is just the club sites, like SMFCTV or Falkirk TV etc. 

  10. I remember years ago a Daily Mail journalist did an article about his experience of a vasectomy and afterwards he was in a lot of pain so he went back to interview his surgeon. The surgeon came out with the surprising statistic that 5% of men would experience quite a bit of pain for a considerable time afterwards and in fact in some cases it could be permanent. The journalist asked the surgeon why hadn't he been told that and the surgeon said that 6% was the pivotal figure for advising patients in advance if there was likely to be on-going difficulties afterwards. I'm sure that's all improved over the last 35 years or so since that was written.

    About that time we were playing KIlmarnock at Rugby Park and we were waiting in The Croft for one of our mates. He turned up late, not looking too well, but we jumped in the car and headed up over the Braes. The guy who had kept us late was a bit quiet but asked could we stop for a pee and we did because everybody had had a few pints (including the driver- how things have changed) The fellow who had been late then told us he had had a vasectomy the day before and he showed us his tackle. My God, what a mess! I've never seen the likes before or since. His member and balls were as black as your boot and he was virtually in screaming agony. Why he went to the match I'll never understand. Talk about love of St.Mirren. He had to go to the hospital for ages before he was out of pain. He was badly swollen too and he said to the doctors could they take away the pain but leave his cock that size. Don't know if they did.

    My boots are brown.

  11. Now Pts GF GA GD

    Killie 38 39 56 -17

    County 38 42 61 - 19

    Well 35 37 61 - 24

    Well win 5-1 versus us is 100/1

    Killie lose 6-3 versus Thistle 5-3 is 400/1 and 6-2 is 500 so say 450/1 for 6-3

    County lose 1-0 versus Hamilton is 10/1

    So its

    County 38 pts 42 62 -20

    Killie 38 Pts 42 62 -20

    Well 38 pts 42 62 -20

    Last game County and Killie Draw 1-1 as do Well. 1-1 draws are generally 5 or 6/1

    Bet the odds are less than winning the Lottery!!!!

    so approx 21m/1

  12. Aye it was Uist I was looking for, also remember we were almost in Kuwait in 1987/8 too on a free weekend but that fell through.

    I had a programme think it was Kilkenny v Buds with Tony Fitz on the cover, from the days when we used to go to The Republic of Ireland too.

    The most north I have ever seen the Buds was Balintore. And in one NIrish tour Ballinamalard, Derry City, Lurgan and Newtonards.

  13. Following on from Manchester a couple of weeks ago got me thinking. I am 44 and in my life time I can recall the Buddies playing friendlies in places as diverse as Africa, The Caribbean, Finland, Brazil, Singapore, Isle of Man, Western Isles. Does anyone have info on the African games, like what countries were they in? Also where exactly was the game in The Western Isles, mid 80's as I remember Chalmers scored.
