    ged62 reacted to Lord Pityme in St Mirren v Morton 31st December 2016   
    C'mon Scott, I remember seeing Rae doing his conkers on the touchline willing the team to crack on and get the fourth goal. And despite ilfounded speculation i am no fan of Rae, but i think the decision to sack him so early, and replace with Jack Loss will cost the club a helluva lot of money. I know he is going nowhere soon, but when he does you can be sure the board who made the mistake of appointing him will be looking for others to pay the bill!

    ged62 reacted to Lord Pityme in Did Lee Miller Bite Jack Baird ?   
    If Miller had bitten him through his base layer itvwould have to have been one hell of a bite to draw blood through the material. What it does look like though is Miller wiping his blooded nose on Baird, who reacts like a numpty.
    if on the other hand as you seem certain Miller has bitten Baird then a full Hiv/blood test, and access if requested to a counsellor is the minimum the club should be providing in their duty of care to an employee. 
    either the club backs up these leaks, or deals with Baird appropriately

    As I said, if he did bite him.. it doesn't make Baird innocent, 2 wrongs don't make a right. If there is evidence to prove that Miller bit him then let the SFA deal with it it's not our problem we have a lot more to worry about at the moment.

    Here's me thinking the fans make an absolute marvellous contribution by.. 
    Purchasing Season Tickets 
    Or 
    Paying admission money game by game. 
    The Fans get fleeced enough.

    I was there and after Baird had his brain fart we proceeded to gift three goals to Falkirk. Maybe i am old fashioned in that when people say we are improving, i expect that to be reflected in goals for and points won. We played a bit, but we are terribly naive, most of our energy is wasted complaining about Miller and Hippolyte. Just what Houstin wants i guess?

    Jack Ross has to take responsibility that in the 6 league games he has taken charge of he has not managed to claim 1 point to date. I don't care that he inherited someone else's team and mess. Any manager or coach worth anything should be able to motivate and set up a team to pick up points in the games we have played in especially at home against Dunfermline & Dumbarton.

    I don't agree that our performances have massively improved in the league. Other than the Dumbarton and possibly Jack's 1st game in charge against Dundee Utd we have been 2nd best in all others.

    Do I feel he should get the sack in other circumstances I would say yes but we as a club have put ourselves in a position it would not be an attractive job to any decent manager out there due to the frequency of our change in managers in recent seasons. I didn't agree with the appointment of Jack Ross at the time I wanted Calderwood but we've made our bed we need to lie in it and the manager will be given time.

    People that think the January window will be our saviour are deluded. Where are the funds coming from?We are 4 games away from the half way point of the season and are without a win this season and are 9 points from our nearest team and 10 points from safety. It would take Championship winning form in the 2nd half of the season for us to get out this and prevent relegation and am afraid only the signings of Messi & Ronaldo would give me hope.

    Anyone got a spare £300 million?

    Mmm maybe because it is doom & gloom we're at the bottom of the table as you know. What's to be positive about that. Ok we got a player sent off but again no points. You batter in defending the club at every point. Then wait a minute you posted you will no longer attend games if we go down, can't mind if it was on this topic. You call me fickle [emoji6]
    I did agree with you though that we can't keep changing managers but something has to change. We all want what's best for the club, our opinions are just different [emoji6]

    You would, easily pleased then are you? The club is still a shambles. Last board made horrendous decisions, looks like this board have done the same. The position in the league says it all about the club as a whole.

    You populist lunatics have taken over the asylum. See how long your happy f**king clapping and "We'll be fine" lasts. The club is f**ked. Didn't take long.
    The only things missing from this being a recreation of 91/92 is Mark f**king Reid and/or Jim B*attie at left-back. If you are young enough to think "Who ?"....then imagine Jimmy Savile giving you a bed bath every weekend. Yes. It was a great season. 
    The new BoD had one big decision to make and by f**king God they have f**ked it up.

    You are correct. Technically speaking Jack didn't lose us the game but his incompetence shifted the momentum.

    You are making a fuss about nothing.  Jack Ross may be able to know players in the lower league having been there. We are a club not rolling in cash so why not use social media to get the word out there across the UK.  This is 2016 not 1972.

    Don't see a problem here? I'm sure they are using the traditional scouting methods etc and putting it on a social network for business and professionals is just a sign of the times in this digital world.
    I honestly don't care how we get the right players, as long as we get them.

    No way did Gordon put in 600 k he's borrowed it . Now there is a massive difference . Its most likely been a condition of the lenders that he got 1,000 subscribers . There is no contingency plan for this ( just like the recently published accounts ) . So the people who have signed up at the moment ( including myself ) will still be paying in future years ? Won't happen sorry as people will pull out for many different reasons . I will personally ask Gordon how much he actually put in . However he is under no obligation to give an answer .

    Shut down a successful youth scouting operation, sacked one of the best managers the club has had in modern times, hired some of the worst managers the club has ever had, failed to notice Rangers going bust, arguing to treat the new Rangers preferentially, verbally abusing other chairmen who didn't agree with this, proposing a league structure that would have seen St Mirren demoted, and running the new stadium into the ground all whilst picking the pockets of fans for personal gain.

    You also called for Stewart Gilmour to be brought back in to help - yet it would appear that he's one of the people who put the club in this state in the first place.

    So it transpires that the previous board left a club crumbling both on and off the park with no provisions for maintenance and renovation. And still some on here will defend them to the hilt and tell us they did a wonderful job.

    Been a great couple of days for the Tories and Unionists in Scotland.

    Most important has been the securing of skilled jobs on the Clyde for at least next 20 years, jobs that simply wouldn't have came to Glasgow had we voted YES. Great news for ordinary working Scots, their families and the Scottish economy as a whole.

    Then there was the romping wins over the SNP in council elections in Alex Salmonds seat in Aberdeenshire, yet more seats going from yellow to blue.

    Then SNP big hitter Alex Neil breaking the infamous party whip and admitting he and several other SNP members voted for Brexit. Cracks appearing? And finally destruction of 'Indy camp '.

    It's all coming up Tory, glorious
