If St Mirren or Hamilton or Ross County were bottom of the League would there be a proposal to change the setup? I don't think so. This proposal is because it is Hearts. Relegate them, Utd come up and the play-off is between Hamilton and ICT as the League positions show. Leave as is.

I am hearing on the grapevine that the plans for next season involve the following.
14 team Premiership. A championship and separate North and South League 1s.
The Premiership split after 24 games into a top 8 (SPL1) and a bottom 6 with the bottom 6 being joined by the top 2 in the Championship to form SPL2. Trophy for the winners of SPL2..
Home and away matches post split. 

Hope I’m wrong but I’ve got the fear for Wednesday, they are finally starting to find form whilst we shite the bed continuously. Gonna be a shit fest of a game. We need to stop being so nice to opposition and start showing some fight. 

If we play like we did in the first halves away to Hibs and Motherwell in the Cup, we'll be fine. If we play like we did against Aberdeen we're doomed.

Not sure if we have the fighters in the squad ,too many loan players that might not have the stomach  for a relegation battle

Not quite sure that the soundtrack is appropriate, but a lot of the photos are good.
 
 
 

No, this is the only picture of Westmarch that exists.

You can see the footbridge of St. James train station above the goal at the far end and the "Dummy Railway" embankment running from there to behind the grandstand. 
This means that Westmarsh was on the piece of land between the current North Stand and the railway embankment.

Green line is Greenhill Road, red line is Murray Street, pink line is Clark Street, purple line is McKean Street and the blue area is the current stadium.

Same view today...

 

According to Pinterst.com, this is an 1950's photo of Paisley....

So you’d rather be ruled by an Etonian who has no understanding of what it’s like in the real world, who sold you Brexit as something wonderful while moving his assets back into the EU, who owns companies that down the line far enough are proven to keep their money in offshore accounts to avoid paying tax, than see your country make decisions for itself like the majority of the entire world does.
Right...

What a pile of wanky pish...

I have to keep reminding myself that you are a fellow Saints suffer , but my god you sure have a twisted view on ur country

What a pile of wanky pish...

“Honking” doesn’t begin to describe his performance. I don’t think he was biased against us and he certainly wasn’t the reason we did not win last night. He must have seen their keeper carry the ball outside his box before their goal - he was only yards away. If we can’t trust officials to get the fundamentals right the game is in a sorry state.
Over to the Compliance Officer to take action over the Famewo assault.

Why hasn't Newlands refereed any Celtic or Rangers games , yet he has now officiated 3 of our games and 3 Ross County games ? This cant be coincidence. We are being used by the SFA to give these idiots game time.

Selection... our fault.
Inability to pass in the first half... our fault.
Lack of pace and movement... our fault.
 
now. ref for both teams? Maybe on paper. That went beyond incompetency though.
Obika booked for a nothing challenge yet the guys who assaulted Flynn and Famewo stayed on the pitch.
Penalty was, sadly, a legitimate call... but he could hardl;y wait to award it!
He was inconsistent and let Accies away with some terrible tackles. Gave us very few of the free kicks we legitimately deserved.
If he ever referees one of our games again, it will be a travesty. He has an agenda and nobody will convince me otherwise! CHEAT!

Why are we continually being used as a guinea pig for breaking in inexperienced referees? If you have a look at the games this tool has refereed, its plain to see he is not trusted to ref high profile games.

Old School as f**k.
Shirt tucked in, shorts pulled up, black boots.
Clears his lines without a fuss. Looks confident. Just looks like an old fashioned bread and butter centre half with a bit of composure added in.
Looks like a find. More like this boy, please.

We now know we shouldn't fear any of the top 6 as we are capable of soaking up pressure. Need to work on the counter attack part as we don't quite break quick enough and that final pass has to be spot on in this system. Would also like to see us trigger a press a tad earlier as opposed to right on the 18 yard line. We could do with not giving away silly fouls around the box - this can totally undo all the good disciplined defending we do for an hour and sell the game as we seen today.
Would've liked to have seen Obika left up for more of an outball - having said that we seriously restricted Rangers so defensively our tactic worked.
Now onto playing teams around us, will be interesting to see how we set up against them, we should have nothing to fear.
Refereeing as always thoroughly inept and sided towards one of the cheeks.
Final point, with UEFA closing part of Greyskull this week hopefully the SFA will act on the singing we heard for 90 minutes, along with the customary pitch invasion we've came to expect. Get them playing behind closed doors until they can act as normal members of society.

Okay happy now 

A few Saints in this line up. 2 looking at a different camera [emoji23]

Don’t think it’s been mentioned but Goody’s decision to give Magennis the armband rather than Paul McGinn is a master stroke. McGinns a leader regardless but giving Magennis the captaincy means he knows himself that his standards can’t slip and he needs to maintain the level that we know he’s capable of. Right wing, left wing and central mid yesterday. Outstanding performance from him yesterday. Expecting a big season from him now.
