    uhura got a reaction from Bud the Baker in Liverpool   
    When I did the stadium tour, admittedly a lot of years ago, their trophy cabinet included - let's call it - the St.Mirren centenary shield. 
    We played them to commerorate the centenary and they won it on penalties after a 1-1 over 90 minutes. 
    If I remember correctly, they were European champions at the time. Liverpool that is, not St.Mirren.

    On their fans forum, Falkirk fans are debating possible replacements and imagining Jack Ross is amongst the candidates.

    uhura got a reaction from slapsalmon in St Mirren's stance on SFA EBT   
    They also won two appeals, in fact the appeals they won were chaired by tax experts and the appeals they lost were chaired by lawyers. 
    Most tax experts regard EBTs as a "legitimate loophole" and thousands of companies in the UK have used them. 
    HMRC threatened loads of them to give them up and pay the tax they would otherwise have paid. If the final tribunal had found against the revenue, these other companies would have a case for going back to them and saying give us back that money we refunded. The cost to the public purse would have been huge. 
    And before any of you ask, I'm a lifelong Saints supporter with as much contempt for the bigot brothers as anyone else. That doesn't mean however that I'm not interested in the truth in a story that has been spun out of control.

    Last time we won our first league games of the season was 11 years ago. John Sutton scored the winning goal.

    What you're saying is that Saints has 1000 million supporters and all but one if them are better than that. 
    This is news to me, I knew I supported a good club but until now I didn't realise we were such a big club.

    The reason they changed the spelling to Led is that if they had left it as Lead people who were reading it wouldn't know if it was pronounced lead or lead.

    I like McEnroe. Have a read at his autobiography if you can, it's a good book.

    uhura got a reaction from BuddieinEK in 1976. .   
    I was there, really enjoyed it. We were two down and well into the second half and got away with a two two draw.  We were on a decent unbeaten run at the time.  
    One week later on New Year's Day we beat Morton six three at Cappielow.  For me, after all these years, still my favourite Saints game.
