  1. As if I would be acquainted with anyone who earned his living as a lowly security guard. Minicab driver level. How dare you.
  2. Our last two league games (Hibs and Motherwell) could have gone either way. Both were winnable but both finished in one goal defeats. Have we just run out of luck or are we on the slide ? Tomorrow's game has now become a must-win for us and a glut of injuries are mounting up at the wrong time. It's crucial that we don't lose the first goal against Ross County as they will probably resort to backs to the wall. We need a fast start and the first goal.
  3. I fear we are going to 'St Mirren' it again this season. What appeared to be a straightforward run-in to a top six place is in serious jeopardy because we've bottled it against shit opposition. All so familiar. Very frustrating but not unexpected.
  4. Aged 82, after a short illness. Born 1 million years BC as well. R.I.P
  5. Against my better judgement, I decided to weigh into a St Mirren victory tonight, usually the kiss of death for us ........... and to compound this foolhardiness I screwed up my bet, accidentally betting us us to win without conceding a goal. Please accept my apologies (in advance) for jinxing our chances tonight.
  6. This is a big game for us, in fact the success (or otherwise) of our season will be decided in our next three games. Motherwell, Ross County and St Johnstone, all beatable, and 9 points from these fixtures would have us on Easy Street for the rest of the season.
  7. Sad to learn that, the wee chap was a real diehard. Thanks for the update. I'm sure I saw him wearing a kilt at a game. He looked as if he'd snuck away from a wedding to watch the Saints.
  8. I actually think our throw-ins are better than they were. Strain's corners have been howling though, easy meat for opposition keepers.
  9. Is the wee guy still with us, John ? I can't remember seeing him at a game for years ?
  10. Even with our (probably) injury-depleted squad we ought to be good enough to win this one. My principal concern would be the weather - the Hibs game last weekend was a reminder that form can be trumped by the elements with the howling wind clearly affecting our game plan.
  11. Don't they have heaters in minicabs nowadays ?
  12. PM one another ? Just a thought
  13. Great goalkeeper for St Mirren. A twist of Fate that he played against us in the 1987 Cup Final. R.I.P Billy
  14. This thread is missing the elephant in the room. Where the f*ck are you Elvis ?
  15. A League One club is probably Ethan's best opportunity to establish himself as a regular starter down south, rather than festering in the stiffs at a bigger club. If he can do well at that level then maybe better opportunities may open up for him later (and for us too ££££, depending on the add-ons clause).
  16. Well done, but agonisingly close to a clean sweep.
  17. Sadly this evidence also highlights how dire our away form has been, only 5 points won.
  18. Greg Kilite, FFS. Vacancy at the SMiSA Stadium for a spell checker ?
  19. Another one is 'early doors'. What doors ? Whose doors ? How early were these doors ? What occasion were they early for ?
  20. 'Back in the day' is another one that grates with me. What day ?? Anyway, back in the day when everything sold in big shops had a price ending in 99p, I hated being told by the assistant, "... and there's your one pence change." One pence !!! Arghhh. It's one PENNY ya moron, pence is plural !!!
  21. Not yet confirmed on either club's official website.
  22. The commentator was correct. You have listed the Darvel substitutes.
