Airdrie United (2002) v St Mirren League Cup 19/7/22
Saint@Johnstone replied to shull's topic in Matchday & Travel Club
If what you imagine is true, this equates to failure without consequences. I reckon it would take a delve into the Guinness book of records to find a football manager with a worse set of initial results than Robinson. Let’s not wait to rack up a few league defeats, because without a goal scorer that’s a certainty, it’s time for the board to own up and admit they made an awful choice. As for the players he has, Stubbs-like brought in, completely hopeless. -
Probably just avoid relegation, but entertainment value negligible. Incidentally, I take exception to your insolence, sonny.

Cowdenbeath v St Mirren League Cup 16 July 2022
Saint@Johnstone replied to Rascal's topic in Matchday & Travel Club
I only heard the result, but surely this confirms the dreadful mistake of appointing Robinson as manager. He must be dismissed asap regardless of any economic consequences. Whoever gave him the job ought to be ashamed. -

Never mind, there’s still the Scottish Cup and the relegation battle to keep us entertained. -

The Stephen Robinson Interviews Thread
Saint@Johnstone replied to shull's topic in General St. Mirren Discussion
Surely he has long since been found out ? Best to do the sensible thing and replace the manager at the start of the season before it’s too late. -
St Mirren V Arbroath, Sat 9th July
Saint@Johnstone replied to faraway saint's topic in Matchday & Travel Club
After witnessing the pathetic display in midweek, I will be giving this a very wide bearth. Saw nothing in the new signings, perhaps excluding Ohara, to encourage any confidence in the new season. My opinion on the new manager remains the same as previous. -
St Mirren v Northampton Town Friendly 5/7/22
Saint@Johnstone replied to shull's topic in Matchday & Travel Club
Well beaten by a faster, fitter team. Particularly unimpressed by the goalie, the guy on the right wing and Gallagher, of the new signings. A rather pathetic performance, but used to it by now. -
Meant to say, I’d no idea the player had been in prison. He was, however not good enough for Aberdeen.
-
The manager has already proved to be hopeless, no need to wait six months.
-
Seems to be a gap between 2016 and 2017, whilst at Livi. Another Aberdeen cast off. Probably another underwhelming signing by a manager who shouldn’t be there.

I notice now that Clarke has began to react very poorly in interviews. Strachan-esque in his demeanour and with similar insolence when asked a question. Having been given a contract extension in the middle of a bad run of games, it has been mooted that dismissing him would be too expensive to consider. Even ignoring the fact that most international managers usually fall on their swords after failure to qualify for tournaments, are we then to accept Clarke’s failure as being with no consequences ? Seems like the old “I take full responsibility for the results etc”, whilst continuing in his post. Now where have I heard that excuse recently ? Mmmm.

Got mine.

I rather accidentally stumbled upon the documentary last night on bbc. It was shocking to see and hear the conditions of those ex soldiers taking part. Wheat I remember about those days was the feeling of shame that a right wing government (just as we have now) was able to win an election based purely on a war. Not proud in any way of this country and those previously and currently “running things” . Shameful.
-
As it has now become the norm in this country that resignation is off the agenda, at least in football it’s possible to dismiss the person responsible. In which case, Clarke should be dispatched post haste. Quite a few in that team tonight ought never to be selected again. It’s not their fault though, that they are not up to the task, that lies with the person who selected them. Unfortunately that was the first whole match I have seen in ages and Scotland are worse than I had suspected. Literally, the international equivalent of Saints. Absolutely nothing up front and lacking fight.

Great to see STV showing the wales game live. -
Has Stubbs returned as manager .? Knew this would be the signing pattern with Robinson, we ought to have relieved him of his position before the seasons end.
-
Obviously you, hence why you answered. Grow up.
-
Both BBC and STV news bulletins have been giving extensive coverage of the fans arriving in Seville and interviewing ex players and their own sports reporters. Pity they didn’t bother to mention that NEITHER of them will be showing the match or even highlights. What utter hypocrisy. Billed as Scottish footballs biggest match in years and absolutely no coverage.

Abaadeen v St Mirren 15th May 22
Saint@Johnstone replied to Cookie Monster's topic in Matchday & Travel Club
Thankfully a dreadful season is at an end, one bereft of goals which is criminal. Genuinely only saw one good performance at home, the first win against Aberdeen, apart from that very little to enthuse about. Have very grave doubts about the manager and whom he will sign. I have a suspicion it will be English low league rejects, same as Stubbs. Might be wrong but I think he is very lucky to still be in a job after his awful start. I will get my season ticket as usual and like others, will have to hope for vast improvement next season. Fingers crossed. -
St Mirren v Livingston SPFL Premiership 11/5/22
Saint@Johnstone replied to shull's topic in Matchday & Travel Club
Best player was Gogic, who will be leaving. That game was hopeless, sums up the new manager. Hopeless. -
The guy is a trier, no doubt about that, but is too lightweight and is brushed off like a fly. Sorry but won’t be able to flourish at this level of football. Might be proved wrong but don’t see it.

How much longer do we give the manager
Saint@Johnstone replied to KMbud1877's topic in General St. Mirren Discussion
Just saw the extensive two minutes coverage. Robinson said the win was coming. Lol, deluded. -

Saint@Johnstone replied to KMbud1877's topic in General St. Mirren Discussion
Sorry, was bound to win a game sometime. No stay of execution. Just as an aside, why Xmes ? What about Paisley Fair, Guy Fawkes or Halloween . . Preferably now, in my opinion. -
St Johnstone v St Mirren, 30/4/22
Saint@Johnstone replied to faraway saint's topic in Matchday & Travel Club
In normal times and with a decent team , given our record against this team, I would predict a defeat. With this current team and manager, a defeat looks a certainty . No fight, nothing up front( as it has been for ages), and a creaky defence, I think it’s the play-offs for us. Miserable waste of a season, barely any wins or goals or entertainment. Rubbish. New manager urgently required.
