    Free Entry On Remembrance Sunday For Armed Forces Personnel

    St Mirren Football Club are offering free entry to any members of the Armed Forces for this weekend's game against Ayr United. 

    The Saints host the Honest Men in the IRN-BRU Cup on Remembrance Sunday and any member of the Forces will be given a free ticket if they show their HM Forces ID card at the ticket office.

    The club will be joined by four veterans from the Erskine Hospital who will attend the match as guests and there will also be a minutes silence ahead of kick-off.

    Chief Executive Tony Fitzpatrick said: "It's important for us to show our appreciation for all the sacrifices our servicemen and woman have made throughout the years."

    Fair play for this initiative, however most people involved with the military will be involved with Armistice parades at lunchtime on Sunday!

    Think you'll find they left that ground about 9/10 years ago when they merged with Oswestry Town and now play in Oswestry, which is in fact, in England!

  3. TNS away....sums up the stupidity of this competition!

    The SCOTTISH challenge cup, featuring a WELSH league team who play in ENGLAND!!!

    Not that it would not be a good wee trip mind! Just shows how far the Scottish authorities will go to appease the ugly two!

    Youth players who mostly don't give a shit

    There was some along from me laughing and joking watching the club put in hapless display

    I know most of them support the gruesome twosome

    If we go down again where does that leave the youth system

    Exactly. Now I don't want them to all be Saints fans, but when representing our club they should be showing respect. If not, they don't get the chance to disrespect it a second time. Same goes for everyone associated with the club. We are fast becoming a shambles and a laughing stock.

  5. Enough been said about the game. I agree that Morgan was the only one who looked like he gave a shit today.

     

    Another thing I need to ask....what is the role of the ball boys?

    3-1 down at home heading into the last 15. Ball goes out for our throw in and our keeper, after a few seconds delay, obviously waiting on the ball being retrieved, has to head off the park into the corner of the stadium to get the ball himself whilst every single ball boy was sitting on their butts!

    Now I know this did not effect the game today as we were never going to get back into it, but this is the norm these daysw. Unless the ball bounces at their feet, they do not make any effort to retrieve it and players waste time chasing after it.

    Yet another thing that needs sorted.

    That's probably right enough competitively. There's been a few friendlies over the years and St Mirren played Hamilton Accies at Cliftonhill a number of time but off the top of my head I can't remember St Mirren playing them since the League Cup ties in 1980. I can't remember if that was one of the years of a league format or not but the way I remember it Albion Rovers won. 

    For a change, Saints actually won against the 'Wee' team!!

    They won 2-1 at Cliftonhill and then a Somner hat-trick set up a 5-0 2nd leg win at Love Street.

  7. Superb match last night. Both players looked out on their feet at times, but still battled back. One of the best tennis finals I have seen in many a year.

    Just imagine how the top tier of mens tennis would look had Delpo not got injured after winning that US open all those years ago. He would surely have been one o the main men, if not the very top. But well done Andy. Back to back Olympic titles.

     

    Two Olympics, Two Wimbledons how's about a second US and a second Davis Cup just to cap off a great year!!
