billyg got a reaction from Desnold in Bt Sport On Virgin Media
I tried to switch from Virginmedia to BT Broadband but it would mean changing my E-Maill address which I need to keep for business reasons . I'm not paying a £15 connection fee on sky and a £12 monthly subscription , so they can blow it out their arse !

I would imagine the "big" players for Saturday eg Teale , McGowan , Thomson, Harkins , McGinn , will only get short run outs tonight. Don't particularly care if we get a hiding tonight as long as we don't start with a demoralising defeat on Saturday !

billyg reacted to The Original 59er in St Mirren Squad 2013-14
There was a time when clubs built their team around a strong number 1, no. 5 and no. 9. Build down the middle and create the artistry around a core of the team.
Last year we had a reasonable no. 1 - he made a few errors, but he also made a lot of saves that many would have conceded to become goals against - in overall terms a good goalie.
We had a great front line leader in ST, - glad he stayed fit and yes he is 30 something, but as long as he manages to stay fit he is a great asset as a target man - also an enthusiast for the side and must be great around the dressing room. Having a back up is probably worth it as the odds are against him having another year without a difficult injury.
HOWEVER - I said it time and time again last season we lack a commanding traditional Centre Half. We have a player in McAusland who blows a bit hot and cold, but in overall terms not the commanding player we need.
Goodwin is a stand in and also attracts the attention of the officials far too much.
McGregor - as much as we want him to be that CH, is completely untested at this level over a prolonged period.
As for the alternatives, Mair (who has been told he could go) is ok but prone to mistakes and Barron who had a bit of an in and out season last year, some good games and some howlers.
If I could have an early Christmas present it would be the managerial department getting their act together and realising that the goals against column last year was as much to do about indecisiveness and uncertainty in the middle that any other reason and they actively go out and find a good Central Defender.
If they could do that, I would have some optimism about the coming season, without that CH, - I hae ma doubts!

Basically , if you don't like some of the views on here then leave the forum , you really don't have to read them if they upset you that much. We are still very thin in a few areas in the squad , even a silly we attention seeker like yourself must see that !

Grainger done and dusted at last. I'm sure we've had a midfielder called Richardson before too !
