antrin

A troublesome mental image, with all that flour flying about...

Hmmm... Better? "AntriM"? One can never find a spelling Czar when one is in direst need.... Serves me right, mind ye! ps dunno how any tickets have been sold.

Too late , HSS. IF SHE PLAYS HER CARDS RIGHT, SHE'S MINE, ALL MINE.... P

They're like a transaction in which one participant offers a sum of cash commensurate with the amount of money whereby the vendor eg a football club believes it fair exchange for the value of the match available to be viewed by the purchaser IE a spectator. warning: the above has hee-haw in common with any diddy cup game, especially against a U20 team. I'm Unsure if this helps....

She probably was the Wummin that picked the numbers. her work there, is done.

Sorry, DJ.... I think you're confusing the deid club... with an entirely different new club, sevco, with absolutely no history that could possibly be asterisked.... a new club that was somehow finagled intae League 4 a few years ago, by the corrupt Scottish football administration? Sevco've not really won anything worth asterisking yet.

The team may well be worthy of support - but not PAID FOR against apprentices of a wealthier club than St Mirren who have been allowed into a diddy competition (ahead of much more deserving football clubs in Scotland) by the corrupt leaders of the corrupt Scottish Football establishment. Why would anyone but a mug want to reward them and their schemes?

Roll up, roll up! £10.00 a mug!

To be fair the SPFL must be seen to be consistent and punish clubs without fear or favour, just as they are soon to announce that all the games played by Rangers before it died will now be deemed 3-0 defeats for every game in which Rangers cheated and fielded players who were being paid undisclosed wages. Shame about all those fake titles and cheating cups that will have to be asterisked in the record books... but fitba is a sport that, like all other sports, can't be allowed to let cheats win. Level playing fields and all that.

I was about to agree with you... then I noticed you'd typed "hit man" not "shit man".

Yup. I agree - when I was posting I was thinking that, too - but still believe the idea that downslope exits with a sudden mass outpouring being implicitly unsafe had to have a bearing on them eventually thinking, "We ought to have barriers, just in case.". The Love Street slope was never as steep as the Ibrox end - also, how many times do St Mirren score a vital last minute goal? Also, St Mirren fans stay to the bitter end.

Oooooh.... You ARE naughty! but I like you....

No, bazil, there's already too many wee ones - Reilly, Smith etc. what's missing is a target man. or woman...

After the Ibrox disaster, it was recognised that such exits were implicitly unsafe.

This self-denigrating, highly amusing article about himself is well worth a read... https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=2507&dat=19821014&id=bMNAAAAAIBAJ&sjid=CqYMAAAAIBAJ&pg=3525,2671170

Great writer, good guy, good Buddie. (Didnae know he was that auld.... He never acted it...). I first encountered him in The Hoop at Notting Hill Gate. A Saturday evening, just after we'd got back from watching Arsenal or Chelsea. Another Buddie came in with his paper and we were checking for the results. Gordon Maclean Williams interrupted us. "excuse me, can you tell me the result with a Scottish team - St Mirren?" he was obviously a good guy. after a few pints he made excuses, had to go home. He returned soon after with his wife who wasn't so wildly enthusiastic, IIRC. met him a couple of later times, when he was affable and supportive of what I was doing. Shame he never made it to the f3k. his They Used to Play on Grass has mention of St Mirren and has the visiting team in aBus going up Causeyside. despite what the Guardian article says, his magnificent From Scenes Like These is set not in Ayrshire but in the farms and fields surrounding Feegie, where the airport, motorway, Rootes and Pressed Steel (Phoenix park) arose. GMW did very well for himself, despite being 'educated' at the JNI....

Fast response, ptbab! hope ye can run as fast... http://www.phoenixalehouse.co.uk

BBC Alba in the Phoenix in Academy St & a great selection of ales....sister pub to the Castle Tavern.

Like it.

I was just agreeing. You said you were coming round...

Aye. You're round.

Well... Either you were right or elvis was.

Kinda silly...? Since when was 1-1 a pumping?

So if you play for sevco but miss with your excessive force, then it's just as legal as paying underhand wages to get stars playing for you as long as you don't get caught at the time? Neither, I guess , are ungentlemanly conduct or against the spirit of the sport... If you are sevco.

Johnstone burgh, Threave, Renfrew, Fort William are all teams that would benefit from a genuine competitive match against Saints. Hearts U20s bifuc?! They're just not worthy of seeking St Mirren supporters spare shekels, nor needing a chance to showcase themselves. Those other examples are. if anyone - not just anyBuddie - if ANYONE pays to get in to watch a game against U20s, then they are - purely and simply - MUGS.
