  1. Permanent , "significant profit" for us and a sell on too ! Assuming he was unsettled up here ?
  2. Guitarist/Songwriter , Mott the Hoople and Bad Company RIP , previously in The Buddies
  3. The ad was first aired in Jan '71 , written by Cook/Greenaway , otherwise known as 60s duet David and Jonathan. It was then released by a group of American session singers and released over there before the New Seekers recorded it in the summer of '71.
  4. Can't be arsed reading it , but I know for sure that Wardrop is a walloper and the club have prospered on and off the pitch thanks to the involvement of Kibble .
  5. EFL Analysis can confirm St Mirren boss Stephen Robinson is of interest to Plymouth Argyle, and they have spoken to him about a possible move to Home Park However, we are told St Mirren are hoping to persuade Robinson to sign a contract extension to discourage the interest from south of the border and, in particular, Plymouth Argyle.
  6. Midfielder Killian Phillips joined St Mirren in August 2024 on an initial loan from English Premier League side Crystal Palace. The Irishman then becomes a permanent Saints player until summer 2026, with the club holding an option to extend for a further year.
  7. Buddies accept bids for Offord St Mirren have accepted six figure bids from Glentoran and Linfield for Kieran Offord. The Northern Irish pair have now been given permission to open talks with the 20-year-old. The Buddies have just recalled the striker from a successful loan with Crusaders. The 20-year-old is wanted by Glentoran and Linfield after his 14 goal haul in the league with their rivals. That has sparked a bidding war and Glentoran and Linfield were able to outmuscle Coleraine. St Mirren could make significant money on their academy graduate, with a six figure fee, add ons and European qualification included within the bid
  8. Tony Forde , experienced RWB from Wrexham , rumoured to be joining on loan , and signing a PCA. Played over 400 games , including Wolves , Rotherham and Oxford. Lost his place recently through injury and cant get back in.
  9. I'm not liking the Robinson body language , losing O'Carroll and Rooney has got to him big time , his recent recruits simply aren't up to it , the GK in particular. St Johnstone and Ross County are massive games now .
  10. Haven't seen that one before , The Blair and John Young ?

    SMISA Updates

    Kenny Lang has resigned from the Smisa board today , wonder what's going down ?
  12. Yeah , when Gowser was in trouble for police assault we stood by him , and it was mostly forgotten , but this is a different BOD and we are pushing the "community club " thing in a big way, we also had the bother with Basher and the dope. Who knows , but I hope it's not too serious and we can get him back in the fold sooner rather ta later !
  13. Another glorious failure , almost certain relegation from "A" and therefore no chance of sneaking in the backdoor to WC qualification.
  14. Ralston and Hanley , the two penalty culprits , should be nowhere near the squad , plus Clarke sets up giving Poland far too much respect , playing one up , remembering they are a shadow of previous Polish teams. Nothing to do with bad luck , more to do with a manager who is past his sell-by date !
  15. My gran owned a pub there in the 50s , the original Argyle Bar , I've never seen a pic of it , but that could be it , half way up , the white front.
  16. There's something far wrong when you see TNS , Larne (Andy Ryan ex Airdrie hat-trick) and HJK (Lee Erwin, 3 goals in play-off round) all qualify for the group stage !
  17. Not liking the fact that SR singled out Richard Taylor when he mentioned getting players on new contracts. That suggests that , unsurprisingly , there is interest in him this window !
  18. Phillips to complete his move from Palace before the weekend , hopefully a loan defender and a forward too .
  19. Anyone who thinks he's been bad for the club need to stop listening to the empty heads like Wardrop. Gillespie , working with Lasley and SR , has been a shot in the arm over the last few years and will be a huge loss !
  20. Interested to see how this plays out. SR rates Gillespie and always gives him a mention when we manage to bring in a player that most think is financially beyond us , including the new contract for Gogic. Added to that , will Gillespie still have some involvement with Kibble ? If so will Kibble have to sell their shares if there's a conflict of interest. Last thing we need is off-field matters affecting the recent upsurge on the field !
  21. It was a foul , defender had eyes only for the ball , and Jefte barged him off his feet. His 5th foul btw , he can't have any complaints.
  22. Maybe , but I would really hope that those "within" the club do see that we're nowhere near where we were last season , with this squad I think Top 6 would be out of our reach !
  23. I see we're rumoured , along with Aberdeen and some English clubs , to be interested in Sidibeh of St Johnstone. Unlikely we would get him , but I think it shows the realisation within the club that we're going to have to bring in more players of a decent level if we want to maintain top six status !
  24. Brann are odds on favourites for the match tonight , which says it all really. Rangers or Celtic aside it's a rare occurrence these days for opponents at the Smisa to be odds on with the bookies. Let's hope we can keep it alive for the 2nd leg ?
  25. O'Hara injured and out of the game !
