  1. Where have I said I believe it?

    I 100% believe that my mate was told this by a player. The player might have been talking shite,

    Two unsubstantiated claims in the one post. 1eye.gif1eye.gif1eye.gif

    but why would he makes such claims to someone who isn't remotely interested in football, much less St Mirren or Hearts? That's not to say he wasn't at the fanny, though.

    The fact that you cannot differentiate between me stating that I am absolutely clear that a player made this claim, and that I believe his claim, is indicative of a typical lack of understanding on your part.

    "Something I have little reason to disbelieve."

    Where did I say you had believed it? lol.giflol.giflol.gif

    You clearly have some desire to believe it or you wouldn't be CONTINUALLY spouting fairy stories. 1eye.gif

    Lack of understanding? bye1.gif Just because you can't admit you have a desire to believe isn't my problem, quite obviously yours.

    An absolute howler. bangin.gif

  2. Granted, that is what I conveyed. This is incorrect. I was a bit pished when I typed out the initial post. The correct account is as posted earlier today.

    It did come directly from a player, however, and I am 100% clear that my mate didn't make anything up. As such, it makes little material difference.

    Aye, anyway, as I indicated earlier, you KEEP saying you are not one way or the other, yet you standby these unsubstantiated versions? 1eye.gif

    This indicates you believe this version, which is beyond belief. bye1.gif

    An absolute howler on this subject.

  3. At the current rate up of sign ups I reckon we will be heading towards 700 signed up by the time the public meeting comes round, and with a big push by all like-minded buds, I think we can kick on from there and get the 1000 signed up in May.

    Come on 'Yazz' sa-aints'

    I think you are being amazingly optimistic.................at best.

    As of yesterday morning 526.

    Numbers have really dried up.

  4. *sigh*

    I've already told the story.

    Close mate of mine worked with former player. Close friend (who knows nothing about fitba....maybe even less than you) brought up discussion he has with former player on night out. Latter talking about playing days, claimed that several 'Celtic minded' members of the team agreed to throw the match, him included. I'm not naming the player as that implicates my mate in breaching a confidence.

    I later had a chat in the Scotia Bar with a guy who is mates with a few members of that team - including one who regularly drank in said pub. I brought up story, assuming he would laugh it off. He didn't. He effectively backed it up.

    I really don't give a flying f**k whether you think I'm making this up. Ask yourself this, though, why would I make it up? Attention seeking? I'll leave that for others to judge.

    It doesn't bother me either way. It was Hearts' title to lose. They blew it.

    Hasn't it occurred to you that this "mate" and other "mate" (two mates lol.gif ) could either have been told a half truth or even a load of shite to cover up the fact we got humped?

    Even that these "mates" could the have slightly misunderstood or added to this story for effect?

    I'm in no position to say if the game was thrown or not, only that it's improbable for so many players to "agree" as a group and others not kick up such a fuss it would not have become public knowledge at the time.

    You say you have little reason to disbelieve, leading me to think you quite like the idea.

    I prefer to think it's a load of shite.
