    For me it's train. Love getting a few pints in the station a few cans on the train then enjoying a few local establishments frequented by other fans. 

    And a pint before getting on the train on the way home with a carry out fir the train,  a pint when you get off the train and then a few cans when back home

    Ideal day out 

  2. Just back from watching Glenvale beat 3rd placed Giffnock 4-3 to stay top of the league.

    0-0 at half time, Giffnock went 2-0 up, Glenvale came back to lead 3-2, Giffnock equalised and then a late vale winner

    Saw Barry McLaughlin there. Rumour has it he’s going to Giffnock…

    I estimated and since had it corroborated by someone that is more financially knowledgeable than myself, that the interest lost by SMISA over the 4 years to be approx *£2000, a small amount for an investment that will be recouped many times over by our club. 🫰

    *Remember, interest rates can go up or down. emoji6.png

    £80k over 4 years at 5% Pa equates to circa £8k interest 

  4. Going to Easter Road next Weds on the train for a few beers in Edinburgh. Looking at timings of trains home, could be an issue if game goes to extra penalty and penalties? 
     

    Last train to Paisley is at 12.15. Need to get train from Waverley at 10.45 to make that. Taking into account walk to the station, extra time and pens would mean no chance of making the the 10.45?

    Either leave early or Saints fans fighting for taxis back to Paisley?

    Any thoughts?

    Trying to be objective, why should they subsidise the rest of the league. 
     

    It’s the rest of the league that are currently subsidising OF. Without anyone to play, the OF would go out of business. The opposition aren’t getting paid their share of the money being made at Ibrox and Parkhead. No opposition, no money.

    Did you read the report or the scurrilous selctive quotes from it in the Express?

    The report concluded this on the physical measures (which included lockdown, in all it's forms)

    "3.1.2 Physical measures advised or mandated in August to December 2020 In the summer of 2020 the number of new COVID-19 cases across the UK declined. This was attributed, in part, to the effectiveness of the physical measures that had been mandated earlier that year."

    So, it was undeniably true that there was no evidence at the time decisions were taken to suggest that they WOULD be effective.  That is because there were no studies done in respect of COVID or these forms of lockdown in our society and noone has undertaken any studies into that scenario since then, not because there was ANY evidence to the contrary.  To suggest on the basis of this report, that the physical measures were not effective or needed  is just daft-the report states that they were an undoubted part of limiting the spread.

    Sweden didn’t lockdown and have had the least number of excess deaths in Europe

    Lockdowns have killed thousands in the U.K and millions worldwide, caused the cost of living crisis, destroyed the education of children, destroyed business, ruined lives, crippled the NHS, plunged millions into poverty worldwide, the rich have got richer and poor have got poorer. 
     

    And all of this was for seen, I stated it would happen from the very beginning

    I think we will need to close off the gaps at the back and be competitive in the opposition half for the full match to be top 6.  The better sides will punish the lapses at the back and will be both relaxed and confident coming forward if we are only a threat for 40% of the match

    We’ve gone into 2-0 leads in the first 2 games. The dynamics change in those situations. The opposition start going direct and commuting players forward and they bypass our pressing game.

    But last Saturday, as Hibs pushed for the winner, we hit them on the break to get the winner.

    Every game will pan out differently. Had we gone in 0-0 at half time or even behind, Dundee wouldn’t have gone direct, wouldn’t have pushed players forward, and we’d have continued to dominate.

    Another example in your head when your opinion becomes fact in your head... you have no idea if it was over the line unless you have a goal technology app that you can apply to Sportscene's coverage....or you are Frank Lampard who had a strong case that his was over line. I take it your convinced Hurst's wasnt over.... however Alex and Frank = no goal.... Geoff = GOALLLL and WC trophy...in other words ...its only a goal if its given

     

    .

    What does this gibberish actually mean? 😂

    Don’t know if I’m being whooshed, but you can watch the game on St. Mirren TV if you’re abroad. 

    International subscribers can watch it but that suggests I’d need to sign up and give a foreign address? But I’m thinking the address would need to match my bank details?

    But even then, it’s £60 for a year subscription, I’m not paying that for a game we’ll no doubt lose!

    I’ll just spend the game looking for updates online I think
