Sounds depressingly familiar, although I have to agree I can see another McLean scenario arising.

Aye the squaddie as he was affectionately known, I'm sure there was a story at the time that the army fixed him up with a job at the recruitment office in addition to playing for us.

Yeah, while the article is probably news to non Saints, it's nothing we haven't known for years.Obviously we'll never know how much money was wasted on paying off Imrie, Harkins, Grainger, Caldwell, Marwood, feel free to complete the list. I'd wager the money wasted would have gone some way to helping us get Scott McDonald in January or one of Tommy's targets from his infamous piece of paper.

I always loved this bad boy, more white than black, proper no nonsense v neck and we were a great attacking team when we wore it.

They have to, they'd be playing a dangerous game if they don't.Going into next season with Teale in charge(or any other current employee of the club for that matter)would have a massive implication on season ticket sales. If Gilmour thinks the current criticism of the board is unfair...

Absolutely no point in bagging Teale now as any replacement would be temporary till the end of the season. Just let the season play out, only 5 games to go, thank feck. They should however be identifying experienced candidates to approach/invite to apply when this debacle of a season is finally over.

I'd agree, even Mallan and McGinn have been shite for the most part this season.

I said he cares. Which is more than can be said for Arquin.

What is that meant to mean?

As well getting Thommo on, at least he cares.

Does anyone have contact details for Gary McVie? I'd always considered him to be the worst striker I'd ever seen in my 35 years watching the Saints. I owe him an apology, Arquin has stolen the award.

Well, in answer to everyone's requests. http://www.saintmirren.net/pages/?p=42138

Getting the club sold to some forward thinking individuals would beat staying up or winning the cup.

Sadly for the first time in my 30 odd years supporting St Mirren that's how I feel.Why should I juggle things in my personal life such as getting babysitters, swapping shifts at work(which I've regularly done before)and ultimately spending money to go and watch the team when I feel that the BOD don't give a shit and sadly it's beginning to look like the players are resigned to the inevitable.

McGinn would do well to learn from Kenny, i.e if you want a move play out of your skin every week and get noticed. For whatever reason he's been poor this season, although there's no doubting he's got talent. If we go down, he'll be away, probably best for both parties.

Money was very unlucky to be backup when we had good keepers like Leighton and Goram.Unfortunately for Dibble, when he retired there was pish like Nicky Walker getting caps.

I'd actually forgotten all about Ball, which is a good thing.

Ok obviously the house analogy doesn't tie in 100% because a football club isn't a house, that's why it's an analogyMy point is, if after 5 years something is still for sale there's a chance it's overpriced.

I think that's part of the problem.If you were as desperate to sell your house as the consortium have claimed to be to sell the club you'd have dropped your asking price considerably if it still hadn't sold after 5 years.

I reckon with this spell out we may have seen the last of Osbourne. Never really looked fit to me.

Makes me laugh that Gus is constantly linked with a quote that Bobby Williamson made.

Yip, best to get another winger/attacking midfielder in.

So you'll be giving him a chance in that case.

Thinking back to when he 'shat' on us, Lennon foolishly blabbed to anyone that would listen that we'd offered him a contract.All Gow did was take a better deal with Motherwell. It signalled the end of Danny's diary on the official site.
