Yes, the decisions against us recently have been suspect at best and scandalous at worst, but we are playing terrible which makes these decisions even more destructive to us.
If we were a decent team, who were playing well and winning games, these decisions would go almost unnoticed. Unfortunately though, we are pish and it only takes one bad decision to completely sink us.
We are putting ourselves in positions where refereeing calls are deciding our fate.

If they "only post after we lose" then this season they must have sore fingers from typing.

Can see why Ross County released him.
He has ability but his work rate and attitude are a disgrace. If he has dived I hope he never plays for us again.
Ball has a better goal to minute ratio this season than he does.

If Arquin did dive instead of shooting then we can get him the f**k out the club first thing Monday morning.

I found this Stu:
The Mirren of Scotland, footballing outside Glasgow, manager Tommy Craig play before Belgium and club Hibernian of Edinburgh. Results pish were - Mirren of Scotland directors crazy give Craig job number one footballing person.
Fans 'sake fcuk' and protest Cheesy blame. Ball, striker - signed Craig, summer 'window of transfer' - plays bad. Fans 'fcuk sake' once more. El hombre handsome, Steve Thompson - painful groin, helping not Mirren prospects. Fans 'sake fcuk' - uno, dos, tres times. Much protest de Mirren in outside Glasgow.
Board directors - silencio from South African director boardroom. Stories fed Div - webmeister baldy. Consortium English 'sake fcuk' in electronic mail message.....

Scott Burns, who is a very good source of information on all things Saints, 1 minute ago on twitter;
That's good enough validation for me.

A lot of people seem to be jumping to conclusions regarding the "Argentinians".
An article full of "if's and but's" from some journalist and certain people are "losing their minds".
These guys have broken no laws or rules during their involvement with the Chilean Rangers. Yes, they have been investigated for some "not so normal" methods of football business, but like I said in a previous post, there's a big difference between being investigated and being found guilty of something.
Regarding the "community club" thing. Are you saying you will consider not supporting the club if anyone outside the Paisley area buys it? If so, I would start looking for a new club to support if I were you.

This week/month has at least shown every potential buyer just what they're up against. Leaks, being strung along, they can't be ambitious, can't have too many staff, can't have been investigated for anything and should probably get their story in the press first in a balanced fashion. Oh and they should hold a public meeting to discuss the offer they can't discuss.

Nobody is going to buy the Club to be charitable,anybody buying our Club is going to want to make money.

Good post.
A lot of people have already tarred and feathered the Argentinians based on one journalist interviewing another journalist. (is that how Chinese Whispers started).
I have yet to see in the press any official statement that the Argentinians have actually made an offer or advised on their intent for the club should they make the acquisition.
If we are waiting on a St Mirren fan suddenly appearing to purchase the club then wake up because that is not going to happen. If the club is to be sold then it will be more than likely sold to someone who is not St Mirren minded and is buying it as a business to make money. Lets face it the current board are hardly running it as a money making business. There is no leadership being presented from the current board. It appears they are only interested in selling the business. (which is quite ironic as they only own 52 % of the business. However that is a separate issue)

It seems to me they are quite shrewd businessmen.
There is a big difference between having been investigated for tax evasion and being found guilty of it.
As far as I can see, they haven't broken any laws. They saved the club from liquidation, reached a cup semi final and were challenging for the league title(which they have never won before).
Yes they seem to have made themselves some money from let's call it "bending the rules of the transfer market", but it doesn't say anywhere that they actually broke any of these rules.
With regards to the Herald story/interview.
BOD's are always going to have fans disgruntled by them. Our fans are a perfect example of this. Feck sake, we are constantly moaning about them.
I am prepared to trust our BOD to do the right thing and if they think the Argie's are right for us, then I'll give them my 100% backing.

Devils advocate here, pini did t go in and ruin a solvent club, he bought a club either from liquidation or admin, whatever bankruptcy is in chile. Are they solvent now? He got them promotion to the top league and to a national cup final which they had never won. In the interview the guy says the fans loved it at first then it went sour due to things like giving more of the stadium to opposition fans. Something we and others do here anyway when there is money to be made. Perhaps that's why this rangers mob in Chile are now solvent?
Is the moving players on without playing out of the ordinary in south America?

Not yet 10am and you're jaked in the gutter.

Like Tommy Craig when Danny was in charge, Teale has been in a managerial coaching role for more than six months now.
Our record in that time is honking. Any contacts used up and no further forward.
Need a clean sweep and new start, taking the long term view of next year or more in Championship.

When any guy, regardless of what club it is, is given a job, the first thing that must happen is for the team to win a few games. We have won 1. This might be harsh on Gary but i can see no good reason give him the job.

Did you watch today's game? The initial "inertia" when he took over has gone. We're back to the same level of drivel TC served us. Both have awful records. I'm not going to argue over percentages for who is the poorest!

I'd settle for Butcher's ICT record over 5 seasons there! One relegation (on goal difference) in his first 6 months, followed by a promotion season where they hardly lost a game, next season they finished 7th (higher than we ever have in the SPL) and then a few seasons in the top 6 where for some of the time they are as high as 2nd and go on some decent runs where they win more than 2 games at a time.
