  1. No rejoicing but I think the stripes might look a bit different!
  2. Don't worry. I just heard one of their players on the radio saying they can take confidence from the draw against Alloa. Everything is fine. They'll walk the rest of the season after that heroic result!
  3. I'm an ex smoker of some twenty years but I don't agree with the overtaxing of ciggies or drink in a pretence that it's for health reasons. It's total hypocrisy to, on the one hand, condemn cigs and alcohol as demons then turn around and demand continuously rising income from the same devil. Put tobacco into the same category as amphetamines, barbiturates, codeine, cannabis, cathinones (including mephedrone) and synthetic cannabinoids. In fact there is an argument for making alcohol a Class C drug like benzodiazepines (tranquilisers), GHB/GBL, ketamine, anabolic steroids and benzylpiperazines (BZP). It will never happen but for as long as it's legal to smoke why do you think the state keep taking income from it? Simple answer. They need the revenue and I believe they calculate the financial effect of any rise in duty. Just enough to show they care and anticipating the same revenue stream from a smaller number of addicts.
  4. Nope. But I did do a poem for the semi final win v the green with envy mob!
  5. This is what the term "Pot, Kettle" was invented for. Edited to add. Watch the footage and I hope you appreciate the fact I got the players in order at the end. I was quite pleased with that. Cheeky Bersteward. FcKKnows?? Not all of my posts are shite. Most? Maybe.
  6. My wee bit. An Ode to the Buddie Heroes And so came the day, the team sheet read out, One change was made, from the Celtic rout. In came Paul Dummett, at the expense of Carey, And the first twenty minutes, were no less than scary. Hearts well on top, and a goal to the good, Missing chances, and hitting the wood. But still we clung on, and lo and behold, Our players stepped up and scored their first goal. Thompson flicked on, with Teale in full flight He waltzed past defenders, down on the right. A quick look around, and he sees it so plain, And passes to Isma, to be the hero again. With the crowd going wild, the ball’s in the net, And the pain of the first quarter, we start to forget. The second half starts. The whistles just gone, Another goal for the Saints. Thompson’s on song. 2-1’s now the score, and belief is abound, You could physically feel it, in the West of the ground. There was better to come, as the time ticked away, Newton passed to Isma, and continued the play. Goncalves flicked on, and in Connor stole, “Baw’s in the pokey”, Saint Mirren’s third goal. After Hearts got forward, and pulled one goal back, It was our hearts not their’s, that were having attacks Lest we forget, it’s not just goals that you score, To win a league cup takes so much more. Samson’s save, and a Van Zanten block, As we watched from the stand, the tick of the clock. The whistle blows, it’s the end of the game, Goodwin walks up, the trophy to claim. First Goodwin, then Samson, Thompson are there McGinn, Van Zanten, McAusland and Mair, Dummett, Newton and McGowan go up To lift that elusive, Scottish League Cup Carey, McLean, Adam,.. Parkin as well All get their chance, so proud you can tell Then Teale and Goncalves, outstanding we say They’ll all be remembered, for what happened that day Last but not least, it’s the managers turn, Danny Lennon lifts, the bright silver urn. And as each of them lifted the cup and turned round Tears were being shed, by all left in the ground. So the cup comes to Paisley, the first time it’s been, And throughout the town, were incredible scenes. All I can say, to the staff and the players, Is thank you for answering, all of our prayers! Oh for that passion now. Both on and off the park!
  7. Yep. But you still blamed the board while attempting to be humourous. I assume that an attempt at comedy was your intention. ???
  8. Really? I feel the Board have backed Gary by allowing him to improve the squad and paying the price by releasing what Teale thought was dead wood. Even to the extent of bringing in the central defender they seemed to have ignored previously. If we go down it will not be GT's fault entirely. His record so far is far better than what went before.
  9. Not me. My JEANS are only just big enough for me to get into!
  10. Feck me! I'm all for taking the p!ss out of the green mob but, come on? Experts say, in general, it takes two days to get over the effects of drink. He has four He was pictured at around 11.00pm. Hardly out on a bender. He wasn't involved in a fracass or seen attacking police. A picture doesn't tell how drunk he was. This is typical tabloid nonsense. Talk about a mountain and a molehill? Move along. Nothing to see here.
  11. Hope so. Though..... It will probably happen at around the same time
  12. I like the look of that team. Good engine and the strikers should be firing on all cylinders. Could steer us to safety.
  13. Apparently the incident was caught on Dundee unlighted footage so the SPFL are using that to illuminate them.
  14. And fought tooth and nail for that victory when it was required.
  15. No. You are correct. There is no such THEAD!
  16. Apparently it's only the bent ones you've got to be wary of! Edited to add. Maybe this post should be moved to the "Poor Rangers threads merged....." thread.
  17. Do you know what I like about M*rt*n? EXACTLY!
  18. That might limit the "singsong" as many of those who want to help the atmosphere are occasionally less than modest with their language. I can just hear it now. "The referee is a ............. bad boy!" If the west stand safe standing area was near the goal line it wouldn't impede anyones view
  19. Be honest. Ow long ave you waited to re-ash this one Bluto?
  20. Perhaps he prefers a more definite outcome than debating with a person. Frankly? I think the hamster's in with a chance here!
  21. That may be but they don't have a stranglehold on it. More fun to be had methinks!
  22. It appears the Beeb made a cockup of the weather forecast tonight!
  23. That "old school" it's hard to find a sundial that matches the floral shirt?
