    I was at Usher Hall for the first time tonight seeing Hamish Hawk

    Wonderful performance,beautiful venue It’s been a brilliant day

    🏁🎶🎵🎼🏁

    That would have been a belter. 

  3. Another belter tonight... Ex Silencers singer JJ Gilmour in a sold out hometown Coatbridge gig. 

    Normally Jinky doesn't sing many Silencers songs in his solo performances but tonight was called Breaking the Silence for a reason, with the bulk of the set coming from the 1993 album Seconds of Pleasure, which includes I Can Feel It with JJ on lead vocals.

    A great, appreciative crowd and a deserved standing ovation at the end.

  4. Great gig last night...

    Kim Richey in The Glad Cafe.

    Fabulous artist who had the capacity crowd hanging on her every word.

    Support was Carla J Easton.

    I also had a chat with Paisley musical royalty.

    Jill Jackson was there as she sang along with Kim on 3 or 4 numbers and Carol Laula was next yo me in the audience. Two of my favourite singers.

    Best advice I can give anyone is never to engage in any conversation or texts.

    Two reasons:

    Firstly once you answer or respond your number is deemed “live” and you will be targeted by other scammers.

    Secondly they can record your voice and get you to use certain phrases that may be used against you with financial organisations.

    You might have heard “my voice is my password” on some telephone banking systems. These scammers are always trying to be one step ahead and will use  significant resources to fleece as many people as possible.

    Give these scammers nothing. Rather than tell them to Fcuk Off - just don’t engage with them at all.

    Ignore all unknown numbers - send them to voicemail. If it’s someone you know or trying to contact you then they will leave a voicemail.

    Once you identify a scam number - block it immediately.

    You can also report these via ofcom.

    “7726 is a number that most mobile customers using UK networks can text to report unwanted SMS messages or phone calls on a mobile. The number ‘7726’ was chosen because it spells ‘SPAM’ on an alphanumeric phone keypad – that’s a handy way of remembering it.”

    https://www.ofcom.org.uk/phones-and-broadband/scam-calls-and-messages/7726-reporting-scam-texts-and-calls/

     

    Sound advice. Cheers.

    Hi Everyone, 

    I wanted to ask a question, Bobby Reid from the team in the 70s who unfortunately got a career ending injury is my uncle, and I was enquiring whether anyone has some old stories of how he used to play, what sort of player he was and if anyone has any memories that they would like to share about him.

    In a nutshell, one of the best defenders I've ever seen... and not just at Saints.

    He was one of my favourite players and I reckon a stick-on to be a Scotland mainstay for many a year.

    Solid at the back and elegant going forward.

    Tragic end to a very promising career. 

    A genuine Saints legend.

    I see Ohara is playing centre back today. If we play the way we played against the other half with a high block we could get something from this today 

    That was how Livescore had us line up, with Fraser in midfield.

    Is it not more likely to be a back 3 of Taylor, Gogic and Fraser or has O'Hara been confirmed as playing in defence?

    He has improved recently, just too late and too little 

    The guy is destined to spend his whole career on loan

    He has improved which is testimony to the coaching of Langfield... but he must have been sourced on potential rather than ability as it has taken quite some time for him to improve from an error prone great shot stopper to the kind of keeper we have had in recent years. 

    Maybe we have been spoiled after a really good run of keepers.

    The Blow Monkeys tonight at Stereo, sounding as soulful as ever. 

    Cool... That would have been a good one. I have their most recent album.

     

    I also love the support Xan Tyler. Saw her last week.

    if you go down the middle I feel you should always go high as if you go low like kiltie did there is always a chance for a tall keeper to still save with his legs. Still the better team so far but dont feel we have the same level as Wednesday night

    100% agree re the penalty.

    Three games in a week is hard going when your success is based on an intense pressing game
