    Thatcher was a c**t and hopefully she's being slow roasted for eternity in hell.
    Not that I believe in such theological non-entities, but she did.

    Sutton will never start a game under Jack Ross unless there is an outbreak of illness or injury that decimated the squad. I doubt he'll make bench tomorrow.

    Fair play to you Jai, you don't give up. But it might be quicker to get your agent to get your name round the clubs, it must take you ages to post on all the clubs fan forums or is it just us you want to play for?

    Mykey reacted to beyond our ken in The Politics Thread   
    the problem is, as i suspect you well know but just like an argument, that many of us have either been in this situation or know someone in the same boat.  We don't consider statistics, only the evidence of our eyes and ears which is difficult to quantify in the argument you have tried to forge.  The real question is, is it right that working families have to subsist on this level pretty much forever?
    I have several work colleagues and other people close to me who have what are considered good jobs, but because of the difficulty of getting started on a mortgage are fuly extended on that front.  in previous decades, you could do that, reasonably safe in the knowledge that the mortgage would become a shrinking proportion of your outgoings and that the cycles of inflation, interest rates, fuel and energy prices, etc would be the swings and roundabouts of many preceding years.  That just doesnt happen any more.  For those starting out, you have a an existence rather than a life to lead.  And for a large number, it just doesn't get any better, unless some spectacular life event occurs that raises you up.  People have been brought up to believe that if you work hard, behave well and don't give in then it all gets better.  the proportion of the population that can enjoy that is diminishing.  The cream is all being hoovered up and Thatcher's (and others) desired underclass-those who exist only to consume and survive in order to benefit the more privileged- is coming to fruition.
    You can budget your way along, but life becomes a grind.  Some respite is needed.  If you work, then you deserve the odd spoonful of cream but the sharp elbowed middle and upper classes are having none of that.  Every advantage in life seems to be sliding inexorably toward their demographic.
    To narrowly focus solely on the cost of food in the context of food bank use is just an argumentative trick that, frankly, shows you and bellside up for what you are, attention seekers who feel smug when they push other peoples buttons and who trot out information that suits their agenda, even though they know that it paints only a part of the picture.
    There now, you have been indulged.  Respond if you want, I won't be reading anymore argumentative pish from either of you.

    I might be wrong but I assume since he's been training with us for a while that Jack thinks he's better than Sutton. I think it's Sutton that'll be back up to Duffy and Reilly, or that Sutton will be mutually consented

    Mykey reacted to Drew in Daniel Lennon - St Mirren Legend   
    My abiding memory of Danny was when he turned and looked at the crowd after Newton scored the third at Hampden.
    That was the mark of the man. It wasn't about Danny Lennon, it was about St Mirren and the supporters. I'm sure he took a wee moment to be very proud of his achievement and well he might, but at that critical point, it was about more than that for him.
    I thought that was a remarkable moment. He is a humble man, and I was so delighted for him to have taken us to that final and won it for us.  That is also why I was so utterly sickened by the way he was treated at the end if his tenure. It wasn't the fact that his contract wasn't renewed, it was the manner in which it was done. So very shabby.
    Danny Lennon absolutely deserves this honour. A very decent human being, and the man who gave us all cause to be bursting with pride to be St Mirren fans again. I walked into work on the Tuesday (having taken the Monday off for additional celebrations, etc) and felt 10ft tall. Superb.
    Thanks Danny

    Am I the only one who thinks this is an antiquated, nonsensical waste of money and, even if not, that it has been devalued anyway. Just look at the names on the honours list. Ed F'n Sheeran? MBE? I'm glad I am a Scot who doesn't feel the need to pay homage to some unelected hanger on.
