    I once sat near him in the stand at Accies v Saints game at Douglas Park (old).
    He can swear at a level that makes Malcolm Tucker sound like Daniel O'Donnel.

    i I like the way you write, you put commas before words instead of after words. It's a good trick, it looks neat.

    uhura got a reaction from Spam_Valley in Danny Lennon   
    Danny was a poor manager. We got lucky a couple of years ago with Gonsalves, thanks to him we got to a final, won a cup and he got a few of the goals that kept us up. He turned up as loan player and I'm sure Danny had no say in his arrival. Like most of us I'm sure he'd never heard of him or he team he came from.
    Our league performances that season were for the most part terrible. We dodged the drop because Dundee were completely out if their depth. Remember they finished the previous season with a points total closer to the team at the bottom in the league than Ross County who won it.
    Lennon lucky with Gonsalves? Consider a year later, another loan player - Djemba Djemba turns up and is put straight into the team for a cup tie.He is clearly not fit, he can't run. What happened before that game? Was he not given a fitness test? Or more worryingly and I think this is more likely, he was given a fitness test, he failed it and Danny picked him anyway.
    I'm sure Danny is a nice enough wee guy but he is not a premier league manager. Remember our defence of the league cup, beaten in the first round at home by a team from a lower league. That was much more typical of Saints during his time.

    Peter Houston. We should've have gone for him a year ago. If we had I'm pretty sure we'd have dodged the drop.
    It's the right option now on the basis of better late than never.

    uhura got a reaction from Al Bundy in Aint This The Truth   
    For as long as Stewart Gilmour has been there the policy has been the same right back to sacking Tom Hendie and appointing John Coughlin. They've all been duds - check where they are now if they are still in the game. Who is the last manager we have had who has achieved anything as a manager either before or after being with Saints.
    After nearly 20 years this is the current board's legacy - an inability to recognise a football manager.
    If you are reading this board members and disagree with it, then prove me wrong - get in someone who knows what he's doing before you go.

    One of my favourite Saints game memories was the Morton - 3, St.Mirren - 6 match on New Years Day 1977. Lexy Richardson slotted a fabulous 25 yard top corner effort. It's just a pity there were no TV cameras there.
