    bigjerseybuddie got a reaction from willig in Super Saints V Hearts Top League 29/12/13   
    Let's use the negative press(which has kind of overshadowed a terrific result against united) to motivate the team. We must be doing something right if other managers are whining about us. For too long we were ever so nice to visiting teams, giving them great facilities and a wee present of three nice points. Not any more! Let's show the rest of this league we won't be bullied by anyone.

    McNamara has been quoted in the express as saying that Danny told him that he felt Goodwin was being singled out by refs. Now call me naive but shouldn't those kind of conversations between managers remain private? Dundee united have handled this whole affair appallingly.firstly bleating in public about our player(s), then using footage from a video which is supposed to be used for training purposes ( I'm assuming we gave them permission to film from the stand which would have been done in good faith) lastly to openly discuss what is said behind closed doors shows a total lack of respect for our football club. Mcnamaras now saying he didnt want to see anyone sent off! All this just because they lost a game of football. It's never been st mirrens style to court controversy but we must highlight the disrespectful manner in which Dundee united have treated our club and it's facilities. Of course Goodwin shouldn't have done what he did, but jeezo utd need to have a word with themselves over this. I only wish the cup game was next week as I think we have, for the moment, really rattled them.

    McNamara seems, by accident or design, seems to have deflected any discourse on the actual football and turned it in to a debate on how St Mirren's team of thugs tried to kick his young and gifted footballers out of the game.
    Disappointed, but not surprised as most managers tend to try to deflect blame away from themselves and their players whenever they suffer a bad result.
    What is galling though is that the media are starting to buy in to this, and instead of talking about a great game of football they seem to be concentrating on Goodwin in particular, and Saints 'roughhouse' treatment in general. With comments like "Saints were again lucky to escape a red card as Marc McAusland slid in hard on Gary-Mackay Steven at the start of the half.", and calling it 'ironic' that it was United that went down to 10 men. (I'm sure if that HAD been a red card tackle, United would have a multi-pass slow mo of it on YouTube by now).
    What is 'ironic' is that there was only one player ordered to leave the field for a blood injury after a 'coming together' - which he got booked for complaining about - and it wasn't a United player.
    In our last two home games (against ICT and Hibs) we saw systematic roughhouse treatment on McGowan and McGinn which was miles worse than anything Goodwin or anyone else in black and white did yesterday, but despite winning neither of those games Danny didn't come out and moan about it.
    Sometimes I wish Lennon would highlight these things, but I guess being petulant and partisan should be more of a 'fan' than club approach.
    So, as Ron Burgundy would say... "Stay classy Danny!"

    Just read mcnamaras comments. He's been unprofessional on two counts. Firstly to comment that an opposition player should have been sent off, secondly to justify his comment by stating that Lennon took him off for fear of Goodwin being red carded. None of his feckin business why another manager subs a player. I'm not a great fan of losing with dignity and I accept that interviewing a manager after a stuffing is journalism at it's hungriest, but he needs to learn to keep some thoughts private. Our Danny can be a bit too diplomatic at times but he would never embarrass himself or the club in the bitter way McNamara did today. Can't wait for the cup game which now has extra spice given today's proceedings. I also read that there was some heated exchanges on the touchline. Let's hope our Danny and our jim have got under the skin of the united coaches.

    A lot of praise is heaped on uniteds young guns which is fair enough but what about our own? Two goals from youngsters in a high pressure game after two poor results is really saying something about their ability and aptitude. Add to that two goals from a man who works for ninety odd minutes and is at the tail end of his career. What an example to have at our football club. Lastly, Danny made a big decision today to take off Goodwin. It seems he was heading for a red card, however it still meant a significant change to the team. It was a good decision under pressure which is something Danny has had his problems with. Not today! Well done one and all! COYS!

    Whatever the result this has the potential to be a cracking game of football and I truly wish I was there to see it. Dundee utd have got some exciting young players but so have we. In the few games I've seen, John McGinn has the potential to go to the very top. His style and attitude remind me of players in years gone by. He is the kind of player I would include even when he is off the boil, he has that bit of magic you might only need once in a game. You might have gathered he is my favourite saint at the moment! Anyway, back to the game. If we win this tomorrow it would be a huge confidence booster for us. I just worry that if utd score the first goal our heads will go down which seems to have happened the last couple of games. Let's take the game to them, score first and we are on our way! COYS!
