  1. It would also bring our average age up to the mid twenties.
  2. If we wanted that we would be better to go back to Danny!
  3. Good start for the new coaching staff down Ibrokes way. McDowall tells the media that he's only following orders. (Where have we heard that before?) He's just passing on the word from the board. Then goes on to say, "There's not a whole load I can change because everything Ally was doing was with my backing." Hmmm. 12 points soon to become 20 then?
  4. For them to make a profit selling on players, those same players need to show their worth on the field of play. Ergo. If they're successful, so are Saints. At least in the short term.
  5. I think that a bit unfair Drew. They don't owe anything to the newsagents.(Unless this lot did it too) You're thinking of the other mob that are DEID!
  6. http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11781/9321913/uniteds-mcginn-bid-rejected Ye cannae trust that article. They've even got the wrong man in the picture. That's Richard Brittain!
  7. Shocking. And many more injured apparently. My thoughts go out to all concerned. Puts everything else into perspective.
  8. Strange how taste vary. The first series of Being Human USA was, for me, far more entertaining than its British counterpart.
  9. For me, it was nothing to do with bad luck. Bad luck is when your striker mistimes a tackle and fouls the opposing player as said player makes a legal challenge for the ball. Bad luck is when you hit the crossbar and miss. Bad luck is when your left wingback IS just offside and scores. Bad luck is when your player gets fouled in the box and the keeper is inspirational at the resulting penalty. Being cheated is something more akin to what I saw on Saturday.
  10. Goodwin was fantastic on Saturday. Not only on a personal playing level but also in encouraging the youngsters. More than once I saw him talking to Mallan and McLear in a seemingly positive manner.
  11. Shouldn't that be, "How do you get that Dig"?
  12. I think we're already doomed for at least the play offs. I hope I'm wrong but I feel Saturday was a watershed. No matter what we deserved it's what we got, or, more to the point, didn't get, is what mattered. Given that. It was refreshing to see us play high tempo and with guts and determination. Dare I say it? We seemed to have shape and direction. The young lads that came in were exceptoional, GT was Lennonesque in his appreciation of the support, (though a bit more articulate ), and the crowd backed the team to the hilt. Ignoring the result it was the best I've felt at a Saints game in months. I would like to see a fresh face in the dugout but I'm not sure they will change the outcome this season.
  13. Is Somers really resurrecting this old trick again? His statement reads: "In these past 12 months, I have been surprised at a number of things. Firstly, the highly negative aspect of most of the media reporting regarding Rangers. "Secondly, because it is clear to me that a stronger Rangers is good for Scottish football, I have been very disappointed to realise that outside of Ibrox, there sadly still exists a great deal of anti-Rangers feeling, perhaps (although I hope not) even in the football establishment." Get that drawbridge back up David!!! I wonder if the seige mentallity will draw in the desperate bluenoses!
  14. Obviously depends on the sort of referee we get. That was the difference on Saturday as, as far as play was concerned, we almost murdered Murderwell!
  15. The only way for the fans to take back their clubs is a choice they won't make. Stop investing in TV games. It's a catch 22 situation.
  16. I may be wrong but, from where I was sitting, it looked like the Murderwell player went in two footed with studs showing. As for the rest. The officials, for me, did fine. Except for: Sending Thommo off. Missing the No. 15's many other misdemeanours. Missing the ball crossing the line. Missing the penalty. Missing the foul on McLean before they scored. Ignoring a multitude of fouls by the Murderwell and letting them waste time. I'm sure I saw the ref getting on his bus home. It seemed to be draped in some strange maroon and yellow design. I'm really proud to be a buddie tonight. Not one player took anything off that park today. If there was justice we would have won that game. Edited to add. The young lad McLeary? looks a real prospect. Get him locked in.
  17. I think this was the friendly but it was still a great day at the seaside
  18. All Teale is doing is putting his vision forward. Who's to say he won't help bring those loanees in even if he doesn't get the gig?
  19. Unfortunately for Marc his 100% recently has equated to 10% for a decent centre back.
  20. It took a while, and a silly quip about my pseudonym to come to this conclusion? Really? I expected more. The reason we have "mostly poor players" was due to the manager who the current custodians, you regard so highly, put in place. Ergo, Shdull. It is as likely to be those you admire who put our club on a slippy, non returnable slope to oblivion as any potential "outsider".
