Both were proven in their day not now. And for the rest of the points given you continually berate our players who would you want in their positions. Did YOU expect to have more than 3 points from 12 given who we have played in our first 4 games?

Results dont back up the statement. We have played hibs rangers and Aberdeen all top 5 teams consistently and livi ( who we perennially struggle against) are you saying you honestly expected anything more than 3 from 12 out of those 4 games if so thats deluded. Just out of interest do you ever post positively about our team. You slate players left right and centre given our standing who would you have rather we had in their place this team is still gelling they will get there and apparently its not just the players fault you believe its also goodys fault as well as he is no good but interviewed well. Again who would you have had take over the reins ?

Im finding it hard to fathom why our club see the need to charge our own supporters more money than normal for this type of game nearly 3 times as much for u12s than any other game and also add money onto an adult ticket if you so happen to want to go to this and dont have season tickets what is the justification for this?

Edinburgh didnt get us knocked out the cup our failure to score 1 goal more in ANY of the games got us knocked out.

No we are not we are 4th top in a group

No why dont you apologise for your continous harping on about a football kit we all get the fact " YOU dont like it and initially it may have been an opinion now its just repetitive durge thus becoming a rant and a boring statement of utter garbage. There are alot of fans that do like it but cant buy it almost every post you put up in any topic ends up back at the strip agree with you on one things it is a fans forum but reptitivness is utter boring give it a rest

I emailed JDSports customer service and was advised that they had nothing tovdo with release dates and it was down to the sales team and "it looks like they are getting all the bigger teams shirts out first for obvious reasons" and that they hoped i understood. Utter ridiculous and a previous email advised i should contact the club !!!!

No i said i paid no attention to their squads of any of the teams i didnt say i never saw the game. Dufc were average on sunday but still had plenty to see dunfermline off. As for last season was a right off from almost day one to get as you say within 15 points of a needed total given our pre christmas efforys is somewhat remarkable as beforw mr inept( i know more than the fans left) it coyld have been 15 points from safety. AR is the man in charge and the management team and players have my support. As for higginbittom at a higher level championship is his level or more to so with the money he was offered. Fluffed it big time for both thistle and killie and thats coming from mates that follow both these teams. No team will need to win 25 games this season it will be a very tight league no run away teams for me

It was not edinburgh city game the ultimatley done us in my opinion its was the ayr games only winning 1 nil and then the calamity defending at hamilton albeit they are a premier league team but scoring 1 or conceding 1 less would hqve put us through. Against edinburgh we played decent football in the first half but it looked like they learned their lesson for 2nd half cutting out mallans freedom and defending deeper and in better numbers to stop the crosses from walsh and morgan

And how is he not talking us down saying dunfermline will finish above us we can not use last season as a guide we had a manager yhat was inept to say the least had no plan A never mind a b or c option when AR came in his remit was to ensure safety first and foremost which was achieved. Dufc have not looked great so far or have hibs in all honesty nor falkirk or raith and as for the soap dodgers well we know what they are. We will cone good for saturday too many knickerwetters on here claimimg to be realistic when the league season has not even started no one knows how we will percorm or how any other team will let alone try and predict teams will finish above us

Why are the so many doom merchants on here the league season doesnt start to this saturday but already people on here saying we wont do this we wont do that such and such will finish above us. No one but no one knows how the season will pan out once it kicks off i for one have not paid any attention to what others have done with squads in our league as i dont care i only give a toss about st mirren fc and how we perform in the league. You claim dunfermline will finish above ourselves and falkirk to say the least what makes you certain of making a bold statement like that they looked well short against an average dufc on sunday.we have a better squad than we have had in a couple season and i have faith in our players and management team to believe in my opinon the top 4 will be in no particular order st mirren dufc hibs and falkirk. Thoae who want to come and say we will be out with certain positions before a ball is evwn kicked and we see how we settle down on the first quarter need to get behind the team or find another saturday afternoon gig.( just my opinion) before the slating starts

Is there a particular reason we are still reading the same rant about the strip on a continous basis. You dont like it fine but stop the constant bleating about it

And how did he get it wrong we won 3 nil played some decent stuff first half but lost our way in the 2nd. We won 3 from 4 in the section and failed to go through by 1 goal

Why can we not just have the same as we had at love street in the home end behind the goal where there was a section at the top of the stand its really not rocket science follow the old tried and tested method that worked before

I know this has a thread but just want to say it is now seriously ludicrious that the launch is now TBC August according to their own website. Someone somewhere needs to sort these clowns out.

Is there any chance this mind numbing thread can be locked do we really care what an ex manager said or didn't say AR is our manager and we should get behind him and the team as clearly since taking over there has been an upturn in results with performances to follow. As wee Stevie mallan mentioned in today's evening times there is a wee feel good factor returning and his game has been helped no end by Rae so best we forget what went before and concentrate on the near future and what could happen under Rae in the remaining months of the season. Just my own opinion though

For a part time club avoiding relegation from the second top flight of Scottish football is success!! He walked from the club so no pay off And in my opinion we were never guarenteed to be in the play offs or promotion given the dross that took us down to this league or given that there were clearly at least 3 very good teams already vying for most of those positions so no he didn't cost us a season only half as AR is now working on his plans for rest of season to get us in shape for next season. And given at the start of the season there was a poll on here asking where we would finish from what I recall most said 5-7 so in that essence no promotion or play off

Before I reply I will say I'm not IM biggest fan or a fan of his at all really. But he done a reasonable job on nothing at Dumbarton. When he took over them he steadied and got a decent league position then following season done the same. To which they are still in the same league as us as it stands. In my opinion that's doing a decent managerial job. And if you can now tell me that in his position if a bigger full time club came calling with a semi decent budget and great facilities comes calling you would knock it back. Just as IM didn't and said yes to it. We found nothing to our very dear cost as we are clearly going to remain in this division this season. The bod made an error yet again but for me IM came to pass after publicly slating our own fans. Yes he got found out but any professional person in any walk of life would not walk away from a better opportunity in their profession if given the chance for me the only thing that it had cost us is we are 6 months behind where we want to be but now have AR in charge and doing a good job in turning us around for the better so roll on next season

I stand corrected long day at the office. Although what does amuse me as supporter of the saints 38 out of my 43 years. Why so many of our fans are fickle we are unfortunately where we deserve to be right now. We have been on a steady decline for a few years now with the odd glory year we have been here before and will be again but right now we are where we deserve to be. As st mitten supporters we have more defeat and failings against glory and winning runs. I don't generally post a lot on here but it really amuses me who somethings are just repeated constantly over the course of the different sections of the forum continuously.

Rae was in the job one whole day before livvy he would need to be the messiah to turn us round in that time. Patrick ah the premier league outfit far above what and where we are now.

And prey tell even if he did what has that got to do with playing for us. At least Rae is trying to address the non existent experience we have in midfield as goody is out. And in my opinion we won't have too many players fighting one another to come to us to play for the next four months that have their way around a football park with the experience we need right now to help stabilise the club and put us on an upward footing we right now need to take and utilise what we can and at least AR is attempting to rectify the dire straights we are currently in

At what point are Falkirk a smaller club than st mirren

Seriously what games have you been watching goody even thought out injured is still our stand out player of the season as it stands. Although given the imposters that pretend to be players in our squad that would be a given for me even a half fit Goodwin is head and shoulders above our current midfield crop
