billyg got a reaction from portmahomack saint in St Johnstone v St Mirren SPFL PREMIERSHIP 6/12/23
Dare I say it , we're treading water , can't score in a barrel of fannies , this is relegation form , we're handing points to teams who were behind us in the distance !

If we can find our form , and get a result v the Fakes , then I think we will win comfortably on Saturday. Player for player , County aren't a patch on us.

What's that got to do with anything , that kind of scenario happens the world over ? That kind of attitude is why Todd and Corson were too small-time for Fergie , and the "we are all St Mirren supporters on the BOD" days are gone at most clubs forever. It was Gillespie who negotiated the deal to bring in SR , do you think it even crossed Robinson's mind that Gillespie didn't support the club growing up ? It's such a narrow minded outlook , much the same as Wardrop's , childlike even !

First one I can remember is the 1971 Scottish Cup replay against East fife I went to all 3 games,
On a different topic the first game I can remember being at was when Saints beat Rangers 1-0 on a foggy day in 1968. remember it like it was yesterday, I was more fascinated with the crowd than the actual game, They had all came to see their new hero Colin Stein 42,000+ but what sticks in my mind was every so often a small circle would appear in a part of the crowd as a fight broke out, happened so many times during the game {did anyone else see that}
Even as a 10 yrs old my thoughts were, and still are to this day it was a miracle there wasn't a major disaster at that game, No way should they have let so many into that game. we got very lucky that day and I'm not talking about the score, it was scary stuff,
Anyway just like today's Rangers fans, I watched in bewilderment { why are they leaving dad the games not finished } as they left in their droves round the running track long before full time spitting and cursing at the saints fans in the stand and the enclosure where I was
There's must be more on here who were at that game,

I remember you telling me that the first time we met was outside the Market Bar in Montrose,no doubt with a bottle of coke and a bag of crisps in hand
You got the details of that one?

That game !! I was in the Tudor lounge having lunch with my heavily pregnant wife. I wasn't planning on going to the game. Toshie was doing his rounds in the pub and asked why I wasn't going , I told him the situ re my missus and he said there were two spare seats , and he wouldn't charge for her. So we went , and when that late winner went in I got caught up in the celebrations , only to glimpse the good lady flat on her back on the terrace , but she was ok , and we won and just about guaranteed our survival ! 😇

To be fair, I care more about the individuals who seem to be hell bent on derailing the current workings of the club at every turn.

What's that got to do with anything , that kind of scenario happens the world over ? That kind of attitude is why Todd and Corson were too small-time for Fergie , and the "we are all St Mirren supporters on the BOD" days are gone at most clubs forever. It was Gillespie who negotiated the deal to bring in SR , do you think it even crossed Robinson's mind that Gillespie didn't support the club growing up ? It's such a narrow minded outlook , much the same as Wardrop's , childlike even !
