I'm flying up from London for this game - first Saints match I'll be at this season.
Knowing my luck, we'll win - I'll decide I'm a lucky charm - and I'll then have to keep flying up for the games till the end of the season to keep the run of form going...
...or we'll get pumped 0-4.

Good news is that we can now concentrate on the league campaign...

FFS. Goodwin mistake for the corner,

Take it you're going Roddy? I will be my usual 35 mins late for kick off, no doubt...

There will be a few London based buddies watching the v Celtic game tomorrow in the Famous Three Kings at 12.45. Right beside West Kensington tube.

Warning though St Mirren can be bad for your blood pressure !
Ah yes - but when it's good, it's VERY good. 17th March 2013 for example!
Welcome to Paisley (from London!).

I think they're more fitted, but maybe I'm a year fatter!

See all yon fancy footwear, special socks, plasters, etc.......
Just how the hell did our ancestors ever manage without them.....feck me Charles Edward Stuart's army made it all the way down to Derby and here we are complaining about a 90mile walk.
They didnae sit in offices most days pissing about on the Internet...

I agree with all of the above. We did it in 4.5 days (20+ miles for 4 days) and it was a bit of a slog during the day, as we felt we couldn't sit down for more than 5 mins as we had to get to our booked hotel by night-fall. It was still enjoyable, but I would say 6 or 7 days would be ideal.
Getting a company to carry your bags would be a must, also. We passed so many folk carrying tents and fully laden backpacks looking miserable. A wee day pack with some waterproofs, water and sandwiches is all you need to cart around with you.
Make sure you break in your walking boots before you go - and also carry some blister plasters with you. I had some compeed blister patches with me and they were great. It's personal preference, but I like to wear two pairs of socks when walking - normally a thick hiking sock and a thin sports sock, and that seems to keep the blisters mostly at bay.
Hope you enjoy it!

Awful. No fight.

Once again, there will be a few of us in the Famous 3 Kings (right beside West Kensington tube) if you fancy watching the game in London.

For any Buddies in London tomorrow, there will be a few of us watching the Dundee Utd cup game at the Famous 3 Kings, right beside West Kensington tube. You're welcome to join us.

Awesome. Can he play centre half?

I was at Boghead that day for the 3-3 game. I was about 14 at the time and travelled to the game on my own as I couldn't persuade anyone to come with me! I remember feeling particularly smug at 3-0 thinking I could go back to Paisley and revel in the glory of being a 'real fan' - only for Bone to f*ck with the team and us to lose 3 goals in quick succession. Felt like a very bad defeat at the tiem, even if it was a draw.
Incidentally, was googling Eddie Gallagher to see what I could find and stumbled across this article about ex St Mirren players. http://wikipins.org/c/St._Mirren_F.C._players Interesting stuff - even if not fully up to date.

What about Mark Yardley. Legend.

Sad news. Stood beside him in a lift once, and he was massive.

Count me in!

Good shout, but our songwriter and vocalist plans to do a new version of 'Mirin'. That's the reason I've pulled it from Reverbnation and YouTube, but if it will get us some airplay, then maybe I should stick it back up.
What do you think?
Yes!! You'd get on BBC Radio 6 Music! How's that for exposure!
