ontariosaint reacted to Russian Saint in Speculation Thread
Well said that man. I was ready to post similar after scrolling through pages of school playground comments.
I’m all for differing opinions and so on, but there’s no need for such childish behaviour from supposed adults.
I want to read about speculation (hence the forum title) regardless how far fetched, wishful thinking and speculative they may be. -
ontariosaint reacted to jaybee in Cammy Murray (Hall of Fame)
Just seem Cammy is being honoured in the Hall of Fame and wanted to say excellent, as he was a great servant to the club back in the 1960's and like it says in the blurb; he always seemed to be playing, I cant recall him ever being injured, they obviously made the Iron Brew stronger back then. Both him and Tony Connell at left back made a great defensive pair and played together (if I remember correctly) for a good few years. I think we picked Tony up from Third Lanark when they folded, he looked a bit like Jimmy Hill and had an almost identical set of whiskers and he was a damn good defender, just like Cammy. Hey ho memories eh?

In the 68/69 Season, under Wright we were undefeated in our first eleven league games leaving us high up the Division.
The final game in that run was 1-0 win over the Dead Club with Gilshan scoring the winner at a foggy Love Street.
43000 attended.
My first season.

ontariosaint reacted to Isle Of Bute Saint in Robbie Nielson
Nelson is a wee bit above himself but I don't really care Oran has class way above Nelson. Oran is a far better manager to pull off the January window with a fraction of what Dundee United spent shows we have the better manager.
To punch the air as Nelson did after extra time surprised me he had the game won he thought. Anyone know how what end penalties should be taken ? That was Mr Nelson's last excuse of the play off where the shoot out took place was not good for his players.
Dundee United tried every trick in the book to make it better for them. No Shed for us unlike last season , no drum , no flags.
Nelson was right with his comment Dundee United have woken up but not at the expense of the club we all love.
Had a great night in Rothesay when I got back so many well wishers telling me they were glad we are staying up and sending over drinks. Pub phoned me a taxi when it was time to go home. The driver Bob is a big Morton fan he came into the pub to get me and gave me a big hug well done he said. Even had my scarf out the window of the car going through Greenock, well you have to.

ontariosaint reacted to TPAFKA Jersey 2 in Saint Mirren v Alloa Scottish Cup January 2019
Unexpectedly attended the game today as I had to come up the road this week due to my wee mammy sadly passing away.
What a tonic that was!!
Of course there’s an argument that it was disgraceful we found ourselves 0-2 down in the first place, but you have to give the team a lot of credit for that comeback. Showed real character.
I commented to my brother in law when Kearney swapped Flynn for Cooke that it was a bold move, but it really paid off. I thought Cooke did very well.
Special praise for big Popescu who looks a real find. He won everything in the air. The keeper also looked very composed.
McAllister lifted us again when he came on. Looked very sharp.
S McGinn had a bit of a stinker for the most part today and Erhahon is never a left back. He got done several times today by their right winger.
All in all though, a great end to really shit week.
Thank you Saints!

Don't think there is much of a split on Alan Stubbs.
Most fans acknowledge that he was an absolute car crash of an appointment. By the same token though I don't think many of us complained too loudly when he was given the job.
Hindsight is a wonderful thing.
On Gordon, I'd always expect the Chairman to get some flak from certain supporters, no matter what.
Stewart Gilmour took the club out of the clutches of a con man, got rid of all our debt, got us a brand new stadium and a training complex. We won the Championship twice, and we were in the top flight for over a decade, during which time we reached two national cup finals, winning one. We also reached two other national cup semi-finals.
And he STILL got hate!

ontariosaint reacted to Dibbles old paperboy in January Exits
Perhaps next year when we do a 2020 calendar we could have Pick do team photos in January 2020 and printed onto stickers that slot in over blank spaces on the calendar printed and sold before Christmas.
Since May we must have seen about 25 players out the door with more to follow over the next 10 days or so.

ontariosaint got a reaction from John Gotti in St Mirren TV and Radio
Not sure if anyone can provide the answer (have failed to get a response from StMirrenTV, after 2 requests) is the game only available to view as its being played or is it also archived so that I can watch it later. My problem is that I cannot always watch it at 10am my local time. Thanks for any help on this...
