  1. Great game tonight - everyone was on top form. Closest a game has been - an injury time winner! Bit sickening to be on the wrong end of that goal, but stuff like that happens. I think everyone was knackered by that point. Roll on next week!
  2. Bang on the money. Paying off Imrie and co. has cost us dearly.
  3. The text replies haven't been working for me either. Tried it this week, and went on to check who else had accepted to find I hadn't accepted the invitation! Weird...
  4. There is no budget left to sign anyone - on emergency loan or as a free agent. Case Closed.
  5. Will be interesting to see how everyone reacts after last weeks game! I'm sure the players who had an off game last week (myself included) will be out to prove people wrong! Very much looking forward to tomorrow!
  6. Gowser should only be played just behind the strikers, in front of the sitting midfielders. He's the kind of player who feeds of scraps, and isn't suited fora striking role.
  7. 100% disagree. Against Thistle, in the first half, we looked the most threatening going forward when Goodwin got the ball in the middle of the park and charged forward. He should start at CM.
  8. Defenders were out numbering us as well at points, don't forget that. For a good 15/ 20 mins I was up against 2/3 defenders myself. But yeah, Gareth's post summed it up well. We didn't have a proper structure to the team - should probably work out a formation like the bibs done yesterday. We were quite narrow too - all the bibs goals pretty much came from the wings (thought Chris and Fraser were excellent on the wings for the bibs). Bad Start + Heads going down = Drubbing.
  9. I don't even know how to begin explaining how shite we were. First game back for myself, and I was rank rotten - don't think I actually made a solid tackle the whole night. Still, managed to score a hat - trick - should have scored more though. Our passing was poor, man marking was hopeless, tracking back was awful and we were caught out of position too many times. (Sound like St.Mirren here.....) Woke up with a lovely egg - shaped lump on my head after Div's Bruce Lee attempt at a clearance....cheers.... Motm for bibs: I'd give it to Ewan. Motm for non-bibs: Gareth worked hard the whole game, so he is deserving of it. Oh well, on to next week.
  10. Would love to have an Under Armour kit. I have the spurs home top from last season, and the quality of it is brilliant. Regularly play football in it, and thus have to wash it a lot, and there has been no problem with colours running, printing and sponsors coming off or any pulls on it. Best quality top I have ever owned - a massive improvement on the season before's puma effort - which was shocking - went grey, pulls all over it etc. Would rather stick with JD than Puma!
  11. Back in the fold for Wednesday! The break on the sidelines was horrible...
  12. Dwyer is away back out on loan at Orlando, as they made it to the Final game of the league (after play offs etc). Final was tonight and he scored a Hat -trick as Orlando won 7-4. Good wee player, but still dubious about the standard of the American Leagues!
  13. There's an anniversary event planned, by a company that I work for. Still working stuff out with the club, but regardless of their input, this event will go ahead. All under wraps for the moment though...
  14. Is there not something about across league transfers? That you can sign a player from another team if their window is open? I can remember something to do with Anzhi and QPR last year over Chris Samba...
  15. Sat two rows in front of that arse in W6 giving him abuse. Bang out. The boy has literally just come on the field - I think it was his very first touch when he started the tirade of abuse. I'm very sorry that we didn't sign Lionel Messi - next time have a think. he was in earshot, think that's going to do anything to help his confidence. Absolute joke.
  16. Pretty Confident about this game - surprisingly. Going St.Mirren 2-0 Partick Thistle. I'd go with this Squad: Cornell Caprice Mair McGregor Grainger Goodwin Teale Newton Harkins McGowan Thommohawk Bench: Bahoken, McAusland, McGinn, McLean, Reilly, Dilo, Dillon. Likely Line up? Cornell DVZ Goodwin McAusland Grainger Teale Newton McGowan McLean Harkins Thommohawk
  17. Bonnes nouvelles ! Bienvenue sur St.Mirren, Stéphane !
  18. Danny Lennon will be forever a part of St.Mirren History. He historically won us the League Cup - and for that, I thank him. But enough is enough. His first season with us was disastrous. Stayed up by the skin of our teeth. The following season was the best I have seen in the top flight as a St.Mirren fan - as sad as it may be. He brought in the big guns and strengthened our extremely weak team. That season was only good for us, because we played players in their natural position, and had a spine of experience in the team - Samson - Mair - Goodwin - Thompson. IIRC, we went on a downwards slide from about february that year, and it feels like it we've been in it ever since! 1 League win in 2013 is shocking, and our League campaign last year was woeful - he could've been sacked on that alone. Messing around with players positions, and following that campaign, releasing players with out adequate cover is unforgivable. It's seriously costing us this yea - and he's the man who made that decision to release certain players. The League Cup win has kept him in the job tbh, and he has been running on it since we won it. Time to go Danny - thanks for everything - but your time is up.
  19. We're bringing in a Striker from the 5th tier of French football!?
  20. From what I was told from a few Killie fans I spoke to, they couldn't work out a deal. Contract was long enough.
  21. The estonian striker is Artur Rattel. Was on trial at Killie.
