Well he's a former pro so that's all the problems solved going by some of the previous comments from folk on here
Indeed. Before you know it, he might start listening to advice from former pros and employing former pros as coaches. He may even set up a scouting network. We can't have that.
Jings, we'll be having former pros turning up before we know it saying that he can't stand "fannying about at the back". But, hey, what would he know about it...

I was in the Cappielow Main Stand that day and it was to the Main Stand that he bared his erse (pretending that he was adjusting his shorts).4 cracking goals i remember with Bubbles the best of the lot
Norrie McWhirter tugging Paddy Flannery jersey only to Flannery trying to knock his head off
Jim Dick barring his arse to the Unwashed after scoring
Quite a decent day
Jim Dick produced some quality moments of comedy over the years.
Back on topic, Hetherston was a fabulous player.

What, the place where the lowest first time buyer interest only £35,000 mortgage rate is an initial 2.05% (rising to 4.99%) which would be £60 per month?
Edit: To add question mark. Don't know why, he doesn't know what they are for.
Says the man who doesn't know how the public debt is funded...
-
You have clearly misunderstood it then because as slarti says £42 per month on £35,000 is not 0.5%.
Go on, do the maths.
Oh dear...
-
You should probably stop the daft assumptions as well.
You should probably keep to the one line posts however.
Cos if you posted anything more, like oaksoft and Ernie, everyone would know you were clueless (which you clearly are)
-
No, you grow up!What the hell are you wittering on about?
How can asking a question be a disgraceful comment?
Grow up FFS.
Having a chuckle at "The Inbetweeners" is one thing, to act like in real life is another...
I suppose its the least we can expect from a lecturer who spent his entire Xmas evening posting on this forum about his work life balance!
I also love your logic that if you personally aren't in possession of the facts then "its of no consequence"!
This isn't the first time you've defended Cooper's actions and you've also repeatedly defended Old Firm sectarianism in the past.
You need to grow up FFS!
-
In other words, you have totally fcuked up!You two are on the wind up here aren't you?
Surely!
-
Link to newspaper article:
The BBC should not be paying tributes to someone like this.
-
He knows fine Ian , he's just attention seeking again !
Truth about Cooper is that he was very much overrated and if you were to check back in games v us over the years he didn't contribute that much. In fact he didn't get a game very often against us , particularly in the pre-Souness years ! Very much a meh player not really that worthy of any tribute !
Indeed.
79 to 86, Cooper wouldn't even have made the St. Mirren line up.
Peter Weir was a far better player and so was Scanlon.
Oaksofts comments are a disgrace
-
Very surprised you don't know about the Fitzy scandal given your a Saints fan of mature years.
Its not the first time that oaksoft has jumped to defend the Old Firm without knowing all the facts...
He seems to delight in defending bigotry, sectarianism and hatred.

You put it so nicely
It's just the common sense being shown by many on here is utterly wasted. The OP will write this up in his dissertation, like thousands of others before him, and yet still no-one within the game will pay a blind bit of notice. You know why? Cause football chairmen all over the country believe cutting prices doesn't work and they can't get their head around the fact that if their clubs stopped wasting money on failed projects they could actually develop the club within the local community and grow from there. When I sat down with Stewart Gilmour in 2000 he talked about John Boyle at Motherwell as though Boyle had lost the plot. Discounted prices, more expensive players surely that would all end in disaster. He was right, it did. Motherwell landed up in administration. The thing is that because that was the outcome no-one looked at what happened at the matches where gate prices were cut. I know cause I took both my kids and a load of their friends to a number of discounted Motherwell v Dundee United matches where the typical crowd for those games rose from around 4,000 to over 7,000. Many St Mirren fans will also remember that Fir Park had 9,277 fans in when they cut admission prices to £5 for the relegation decider on the 12th May 2007. Instead the Motherwell project is rolled out time and time again as to why cheap admission is doomed to fail, always forever amen. Yet that's simply not true. Some of the "new" fans that turned up at Fir Park during those discounted times have stuck. I know quite a few of them. Several are now season ticket holders, many more are occasional visitors. Cast your mind back to Motherwell matches both home and away in the Premiership v St Mirren - remember the large young team making all that racket......now have a look round Greenhill Road next time you are there. Where's the large volume of youngsters in Paisley?
Instead Gilmours legacy at St Mirren is an ever dwindling number of grumpy middle aged to well past retirement age fans who've gotten more worried about reserving their seat than they are about the clubs performances on the park and if the board do make a nod at discounted prices they f**k it up completely with bizarre promotions like this Bring A Buddy nonsense. I've gone way past fatigued on the subject. There's so much that could be done, so many lessons to learn from clubs all around the country, but this is St Mirren and no-one here can see beyond being handed a self congratulatory pat in the back for ticking all the boxes Mark Wotte and his band of shysters put in place.
St. Mirren have offered discounted prices on a number of games in the past and regularly hand out free tickets to local boys clubs.
Motherwell went into admin because they signed players on high wages on the expectation that success would bring in larger crowds.
Unfortunately for them, all the other clubs in the top flight did the same thing thereby cancelling each other out. Motherwell, Hearts, Dundee, Dunfermline & Livingston all ended up in administration, Killie have now negotiated a large debt write off while Rangers went out of business completely and no longer exist.
My recollection is that, at the time, you advocated that St. Mirren should also overspend on wages to compete with these clubs....

Summer football
Would run from January to December and see attendances fall IMO
-
A winning team is what will draw bigger gates.
Even if the stadium was indoors with central heating, cushioned seats and free entrance and a free pint it wouldn't increase attendances.
Fans will turn out in shite conditions and pay over the odds prices if the team is winning.
Winning is all that matters.
-
Thanks pal.
PS See ye on 12th March.
Sorry, nocando.
I'm going with Lord Pityme.
-
Any offer needs to be available to ALL fans.
Not just those with mates.
Its discriminates against faraway.
-
A more logical idea for starters would be that we fill out the west stand and then use a section of the north as an over spill, giving QOTS say half of the north.
Are there 2 sets of 'facilities' under the end stands? If not, then its not possible to segregate.
-
They can't segregate the main stand hence why it's never used for this purpose only west stand had this facility hence why it's used for this purpose
Why?
The main stand is effectively cut in two. There is no access between the 2 halves under the stand.
-
To me, this just seems like a type of 'corporate hospitality'. Only its cheaper and there will be more riff raff.
If it makes money for the club then what is the problem?
I have no intention of ever using the bar regardless of whether there is a membership or not. So its never going to be available to all punters whatever happens. Its only going to be available to people with alcohol problems.
-
No MSP or MP from Scotland from any party is in favour of leaving the EU.
How do you know that?
Just because the SNP wont allow its MPs and MSPs to speak freely doesn't mean that none of them support leaving...
Its also amusing that the nationalists now believe we are "better together" and are all unionists!
Hypocrites!

lol
My post wasn't in support of your viewpoint nor a dig at div.
The opposite in fact.

Do you sleep in your conservatory on a regular basis div?

The rantings of one very acute bellend, a very acute bellend indeed.
Don't be so harsh on yourself
-
Owned, you say? Involving some kind of calculation, perhaps? I'll stop there, you know what comes next.
Mmmm, replying to an exchange with oaksoft?
Are you the same person or do you just like hiding behind others viewpoints?

I am pleased to see that Jim Sillars is one of the few nationalists being entirely consistent and calling for Brexit.
I completely disagree with him but at least he has principals.
The SNP are beginning to tie themselves in knots already with their "better together" viewpoint!
Next, I await them campaigning on the same side as David Cameron and the Scottish Tories!

Oh, I don't know. SNP supporters appear to be quite happy with their lives...
Cock breath.
