    Swiss_Saint got a reaction from Paisleyporridge in Saints vs Celtic Wed 3/4/19   
    This forum is a barrel of laughs, did we play a weakened team, Yes. Does this allow for a refreshed stronger side on Saturday , Yes.
    If we had played a stronger side there is no guarantee that it would have taken anything but it would then be a tired side on Saturday when if we lose the same people on here moaning would be moaning that we should have played a weaker side  to save the legs.
    Some people are never satisfied!
    At the January transfer window we were 10 points behind 11th, we are now 11th and 2 points ahead of 12th, improvement has been made and will hopefully continue KTF

    So Bud how do Suggestions and accusations become SNP are a F**king disgrace? I can suggest and accuse you of many things but that does not necessarily make them true or you a f**king disgrace.
    I think all the parties are a f**king disgrace at the moment by the way as they are all running their own selfish party agendas rather than what is good for the UK (and by that I mean Scotland, NI, Wales and England) I just object to one party being vilified when they are all Sh**t

    Swiss_Saint got a reaction from Sweeper07 in St. Mirren v Kilmarnock, Monday 11th March 2019   
    I think the injury to McGinn before the game started would have had an effect on how we played as currently he is a better player than Mcpherson who replaced him. If Tansey had been available that would have been a better swap.
    I thought we had better chances than Killie just failed to take them either through missing the ball across the box or Findlay's defending who I thought was their player of the match.
    At the end of the day we were playing against a top 3/4 team and competed for 89 mins of the game where they were restricted to mostly long shots aside from the goal and the one off the post, we would not have managed that pre-January window so still positives from the game.

    Nice answer to my point there, pointless though
    Unfortunately we did indeed lose to Utd in the cup and the following is not a justification however we are a team at the bottom of the Prem playing second in the championship so morale boost for them and it was a tight game which could have gone either way.
    And of course lower league teams never beat prem teams .
    We will see if you are correct come the end of the season or I am right to have hope.
    Question if I am right will you still want OK removed?
    If you are right for me it will depend on the nature of how we go down if its the surrender that we have done in some games pre January then yes he should go but if its nip and tuck all the way to the end then I would say give him a chance.

    I love the irony of you using one game Aberdeen to do exactly what you accused me of doing  (oh look I can use smilies too)
    Me suiting my point of view, you really have the Irony stick out today don't you and yet you call me a fool!
    Ok lets look at the team in the Motherwell game - Hldaky and Popescu recent recruits , Muzeks first proper game yet a team still getting to understand each other, half the new recruits trying to find their feet with our game and fitness .
    If that is me trying to suit my point of view I point to the evidence of Jones who initially struggled to get up to speed and fitness of the Scottish game but eventually improved.
    Your point of view is negative and refuses to consider the last 3 games or look at the players who are better than what we had and have allowed Flynn to show that he is a player after all. I would also say that Baird is flourishing with popescu beside him and made some great challenges on Saturday and has been gaining in confidence and consistency this year.

    I really don't get where your low opinion of OK comes from, he inherited a team devoid of confidence, missing players who should have been brought in in the summer to take us from a championship squad to a Premier squad.
    He arrived and instead of going in gung ho he assessed what we had and managed to bring in 3 players to steady the ship and let us limp along to January with little or no hope of winning anything but getting us there with a semblance of morale.
    In January he along with the backroom team rebuilt the squad from the ground up and we are now seeing the fruits of that with a more solid defence, the best goalie we have had for a while and a midfield that Flynn has now started to shine in. But more than that he actually has options on the bench so that he can make changes during games to try and swing things our way.
    Case in point he saw we were struggling on Saturday so he took off the Duck and brought on Jackson, this led to the goal.
    We started off afew weeks ago 6 points off 11th and are now 1 with lots of points to play for so to write off a manager based on his games with the crud he inherited from Stubbs is IMHO unfair especially when you look at the squad assembled in the one window he has had.

    for those that think Livingston outplayed us sound like Holt would have been happy with a point and while Livi had more possession they did feck all with it based on the stats
     
    Quotes and stats from BBC I have highlighted Holts impression and shots on target we had 5 they had 1!!!
    St Mirren manager Oran Kearney: "It's been a while since I experienced a last-minute winner. It's a nice reward on the back of the previous two performances. To make those two points valuable, we knew we needed the three today.
    "Ryan Flynn's had a brilliant month for us; I don't know where he gets the energy from to start the move and then pop up to squeeze it in."
    Livingston manager Gary Holt: "It's not sore - it's naivety. It's game management and professionalism. We should just see the game out and it's something we need to learn.
    "The players need to learn that instructions given on the park need to be carried out to the letter. It's just disappointing that we've chucked away a good point."

    2 points at arguably the 2 hardest grounds out with Sellick and Sevco. Not a bad return. 
    But as you suggested,  its wins we need and especially against the teams directly above us. 
    March is looking like a massive month in our aspirations to stay in this league. Looking for no worse than 5 points return. Any more than 5 points will surely put as in a decent position to try and escape. 
    In Oran we trust.

    Things have been reasonably harmonious on the forum since the team started performing. It seems most of us are happy that OK is the man to take us forward or at least those who don’t are a bit quieter. Hopefully we are all starting to come together get behind the Manager, the Team, the Board and working hard to get Tony an OBE (Overtly Big Expectations).
    For those of us who were there the power of Unity was immense at Tyncastle. The 606, plus the extras in Hospitality, were the hard-core die-hards who go to most away games and together we shouted the place down. W7, who were behind me to my left, were in good voice and the much-maligned Josh was conducting them like a maestro. Well done but the rest of us weren’t exactly quiet either. The buds in the section to my right were also inspired by events on the park and started just as many chants causing the whole stand to join in the more well-known songs. The Unity was clear and even Graham Speirs commented on one of his blogs how St Mirren wouldn’t go down without a fight when their support was as passionate as the Buds. Even the Hearts fans we drank with after the game highlighted our efforts.
    OK says we won the battle of the fans and our support with the Drum was instrumental in the team keeping their heads up when hearts scored. We haven’t really seen that kind of Joint Victory since JR left and we can all blame AS but now the team are playing their part let’s get behind them and OK.
    I hope it’s not another false dawn. A glimmer of hope is usually followed by a pumping from Hamilton or Livi but something tells me we’re onto something good. Let’s all stick together and play our part on Saturday and every other matchday till the end of the season.
    Let’s get arses on seats so the team can show us the way and get our arses off them again with more goals. I just love a wee jump up and down.
    One Town, one Team, There’s only one TF.

    No you didn't, you asked what Oran had shown us, you asked for opinion there is a big difference, I gave you what you asked for there's a fact for you!
     
    Anyway as I said I do not think it is too late but we are getting to that point soon where it will be. Your opinion (Not fact, see the difference) is that it is already too late, my opinion is different that does not make me deluded just hopeful, perhaps you should look up some definitions in the dictionary.
     
    Here's some facts for you:
    We are 6 points behind 10th place
    There are 39 points to play for
    6 of the 39 points are against the 10th based team
     
    The league is not over till its over, do I think we can stay up? with our form up to now No chance. Am I hopeful with the new players and the improvements that I have seen that we can stay up? Yes I am.
