Saints v Celtic, Friday 14th September
TPAFKA Jersey 2 replied to Eric Arthur Blair's topic in Matchday & Travel Club
Most important thing for me about tonight is that we look like we have a defence again. Looked really solid and loads of spirit being shown with bodies being thrown in the way of shots etc. Sure you could argue that it feels like a bit of a missed opportunity and perhaps we could have been a little more adventurous in the second half, but after the guff we’ve been treated to so far this season, I’m certainly not going to complain. -

If he isn’t signed and registered already, is it even possible for that to happen in such a short time window? I know not of how such things work. -

If it’s not been announced by now, surely it’s unlikely? Playing tonight I mean. -

Nope. Well not according to a Celtic supporting colleague at work who said he is now available for selection. -

Apologies if it's been brought up before on this thread, but does anyone think that Brendan Rogers would be enough of a see you next Tuesday to let Morgan loose on us tonight? -

Nah sorry to disagree with you Ricky. I couldn’t give a monkey’s who are the champions unless it’s St. Mirren. Also, unlike you, in the same era, I looked forward to playing Aberdeen a damn sight less than I did Celtic as I’m pretty sure we beat Celtic a helluva lot more times than we did Aberdeen -

Whilst I accept that Celtic are Scottish champions and that the match attracts a big crowd, I do baulk a little at some of the sycophantic pish about “these are the nights you dream of” or “this is what promotion was all about” nonsense. Maybe it’s because I come from an era when we gave the likes of Celtic a reasonably regular scudding that this sort of patter gets my goat a bit. -
Oran's pick v The Board's man?

I’ll have you know I’ve only been out for a wee meal where I consumed no more that a gin and tonic and maybe a bottle and a half of wine. Jober as a sudge. -

That’s a fairly decent panel. A likeable h u n a likeable Tim and a genuine neutral. -

Unlike FS, as a general rule, I quite like your patter Poz,............but that was utter gash. -
Oran's pick v The Board's man?
TPAFKA Jersey 2 replied to Lord Pityme's topic in General St. Mirren Discussion
So it’s the role that’s providing the continuity, not the person in it? OK I get that, but Aren’t they two completely different roles? In which case, why would the incumbent TD (whoever that me be) necessarily have the skills to take over a managers job? I guess the reason I don’t know the answer to that question, is because I don’t think there’s been a single person yet who’s been able to articulate clearly what the role of a TD is! -

TPAFKA Jersey 2 replied to Lord Pityme's topic in General St. Mirren Discussion
I don’t get that though Div. Why does creating a TD role provide continuity? What if the TD is doing a shite job and needs to get sacked? Why are we assuming that it will be the manager who would be getting the tin tack? In fact if Oran is in as Manager and Gus comes in as TD, I know who my cash would be on (if any) for doing the shite job. -

You have completely lost me with that gibberish? First of all I’m not sure what format you view this forum in, but the one I use the thread title is in big bold lettering with the author below in much smaller, fainter greyed out font. Your attention is drawn to the title long before the author. In fact the vast majority of the time I open a thread title without even noticing who the author is. My point was that I can usually tell yours by either the negative or incendiary tone of the title. The gobbledygook in your second para is lost on me? Something about saying your post was pointless which I didn’t do. Perhaps you meant something else. Perhaps if you’d written it in English it would have been clearer. -

Spot on Elvis. In the same way you can always tell a Ricky thread from the title, you can always tell a LPM thread too. -
Welcome back, Gus MacPherson.
TPAFKA Jersey 2 replied to Eric Arthur Blair's topic in General St. Mirren Discussion
I have no personal issues with Gus in relation to his time with us. He did a good job and then went stale, so it was time for a change. My issue is twofold. 1) I’m not convinced our club needs a Technical Director role on top of all the other roles. 2) If it’s decided that such a role should exist, then I don’t think it should be performed by one of our ex managers. -
Welcome back, Gus MacPherson.

Cheers Wendy. Saved me a reply. -

You said strikers not attackers. Arguably he had 4 strikers on the park at one time, Rasmussen, Fortune, Keane and Samaras, but that was only from the 75th minute onwards. McGeady was an attacker, Ki was an attacker. It’s perfectly normal to have 5 or 6 attackers on the park at the same time, especially late on in a game when you’re getting gubbed. -
Welcome back, Gus MacPherson.
TPAFKA Jersey 2 replied to Eric Arthur Blair's topic in General St. Mirren Discussion
Don’t know if I’m missing something, but I feel dead against this. I want OK to run the club without interference from anyone, let alone someone who was previously our manager. Just feels all wrong to me. Time will tell. -

I’m a fan of Drew, but in fairness that was pretty funny! -
Just had to edit the above for absolutely atrocious grammar. Unfortunately it’s preserved forever by the swines that quoted me!

This is more like it!! Looking back my 1am post seems a trifle ranty and over the top but my general point still stands. That negative Scottish attitude gets my goat. I thought last night was a really positive performance. As ever we gave ourselves a few hairy moment with sloppy passing but in reality MacGregor had to make one save of any note. Scotland on he other hand totally dominated the game, created umpteen chances and with better finishing or less last ditch defending by Albania we would have won even more comfortably than we did.

This thread is a f**king embarrassment. No wonder we became the first country ever to reject independence when we are populated by such a bunch of self loathing cunts. we just comfortably disposed of a country who have qualified for a major tournament a damn sight more recently than we have and who have given plenty of decent team a hard time, yet it seems the vast majority on here sound like old firm, entitled twats. I f**king despair.

Just googled it. We had 12 guns while they had 10. The 6 mortars might have swung it for them mind you! And by the use of “we” above, I do not presume to have decided everyone’s political persuations, just my own. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Culloden
