Moving house and having a clear out.  I've got a signed ball from the 2013-14 season and a programme from the last game at Love Street if anyones interested send me a message.

You know in the early 2000s Hamilton were in administration, the Third Division and ground sharing at Clyde? All sorts went on that would have affected current and future fan bases at the time. As dire as they may be to watch, they’ve earned their place in this league. Unfortunately like Paisley  and most of Scotland, their town is infested with either glory hunters or deluded muppets who believe their 6 year old club is going for 55.
Well done to those Accies fans who did bother to turn up. I’m not surprised that they and Livi have the smallest supports in the league, with the way both clubs have suffered in the past couple of decades.
Out of all the reasons not to go to watch Saints away at Accies, this will be the worst reason out there.

Well done to St Mirren today. You can probably tell from my username that I'm a Hibs fan. Thought your team were a credit to your club today, worked their socks off and there was also no shortage of quality on display, particularly from Morgan and McGinn and to a lesser extent Mallan (IMO anyway). More than deserved your point, an argument could even been made that you lot deserved to pick up all three but hey ho, I don't think any of us particularly care now!
Also, massive credit to the St Mirren fans today. Filled the half of the stand you were given and made a hell of a lot more noise than the likes of Hearts and Rangers who bring double the numbers but about 10% of the noise. Not heard an away support like that at Easter Road in a long time.
If you could keep that squad together and add another couple decent players I think you lot could definitely win that league next season. When you lot beat us 2-0 you were probably the only team to have beaten us this season that actually deserved to. Whether you'll be able to do keep them together is the key but then again, with the job Jack Ross has done I'm sure he'd manage to replace them fairly well.
Good luck next season. I hope and expect to see you lot back in the SPL very soon.

Who celebrates finishing 7th in a league of 10? Not St Mirren and nor should we!
 
What we celebrated at full time today was so much more than a point. So much more than finishing seventh having been bottom for the vast majority of the season.
 
What we celebrated was the preservation of history in a Lazarus style rise from the dead.
 
Truth be told, had we ambled through the season in a humdrum fashion and finished seventh this season, most fans would have been venting displeasure at best.
 
Instead, almost 2,000 of us stood shoulder to shoulder when not hugging one another, applauding a set of players who gave their all for the cause.
 
Credit to the Hibs fans at this point. This was THEIR party, but for a few moments, they respectfully allowed us to gatecrash it.
 
St Mirren FC is 140 years old.
In 140 years, Saints have NEVER played outwith the top two divisions of Scottish football.
 
I have supported Saints for around 40 years... Almost a third of the clubs existance! I think that entitles me to be passionate about them.
 
I have seen more lows than highs, more misery than celebrations... But when we DO celebrate, us Buddies know how to savour the moment... We have usually waited decades for it, suffering in the meantime.
 
Right up until the final whistle today, one more goal by Hibs and Saints would have faced a relegation play-off.
 
Worse still... Against our Manager Jack Ross' last team Alloa, currently managed by cup winning captain and Saints legend Jim Goodwin.
 
That thought alone was a painful one.
 
So... When the whistle blew, we were partially celebrating a hard earned point away to a very good championship winning side in Hibs, but we were celebrating so much more.
 
Relegation COULD have meant people losing jobs. COULD have resulted in us going part-time and spending unknown years in the doldrums.
 
We were celebrating the preservation of 140 years history in an escape act that Houdini himself would have admired.
 
We were letting the players know that we truly appreciated their efforts and know they gave their all.
 
We were letting them know that for 95 minutes today we were going into every challenge with them and were willing them over one final hurdle.
 
In a team filled with teenagers and youngsters, the inhumane pressure they have faced up to and overcome is testimony to the leadership of Jack Ross and his inspirational Captain Marvel Stephen McGinn.
 
We were celebrating their coming of age and the potential birth of something that hasn't excited me as much since a young manager called Alex Ferguson got me addicted in the first place!
 
No. Nobody should celebrate finishing seventh in a league of ten.
 
I hope we never do!
 
Slainte.
 
 
 
 
 
 

McCall... sits down to a takeaway fish supper tonight, ponders inability to even draw, much less win, against a team who had their keeper sent off after only four minutes.... shakes head, dunks a chip into curry sauce tub... remembers they also missed a penalty... throws fish supper in bin and lies down in a darkened room.
Yogi... sits down to a portion of fritters and a single sausage... ponders the league table at Christmas. Thinks about the job vacancies he might have applied for... mind flashes back to Stevie Mallan's goal and shipping five that might have made a difference... throws fritters in bin and heads into garden shed for a greet'.
Ross... opens a bottle of chilled fizz and contemplates a fortnight in Orlando.
 
Ach, fcuk it...I'm gonnae' celebrate too. Do, do, do, de, doo... Andy Dorman!.... Super Stelios! Etc...... 

I think a wee word is due for Gordon and the board tonight. It was a huge call to sack Rae so early in the season and to appoint JR when there were more experienced candidates available. Absolutely vindicated now.

Really tough game to call.  Who knows how Hibs will approach this, they've not had anything to play for in their last two games against Raith and Ayr.  Yet they've won them both, doing us a big favour in the process.  You think they will take this one at least as seriously as they did the previous two, perhaps even more so given the huge home crowd that's going to be in Easter Road tomorrow.
Couple of Hibee fans on PNB seem confident they'll win, and why wouldn't they be.  I think we'll do enough to get a wee point though.
1-1
 
 

Spot on mate, currently sat in Jersey Airport en route to Edinburgh, beers flowing and not due to get into Edinburgh till 08.30 tonight, could get messy 

Most excited i've been for a saints game in ages...more so than the league cup final...i think....looking forward to a full house, big away support, loads of singing, sunny day, saints staying up...confident of a point at least.
