    beyond our ken got a reaction from scottd in No Home Win In Lower League Till At Least November!   
    If we play like that in every game then we will cruise up the league in jig time, getting rid of the non-delivering elements of the team will also help
    I hope we can sustain that level of performance and even improve on it

    You are right, he is nowhere near the standard of those players, add to that quite a few who showed as much potential as SM but failed to live up to the expectation.
    Just now he is lining up alongside the likes of Torrance
    But the sentiment is correct, he should be signed up to a better contrct just now as he definitely looks a better prospect than McGinn or McLean

    Whose idea is it for us to stop trying to press and attack after we take the lead? that second half was disgraceful and we were so lucky to hold on.
    Baird and Cuddihy were complete bombscares today, Agnew disappeared in 2nd half, Thompson left isolated again, Gallagher ended up in left back position at times and If it wasn't for performances by Goodwin and Langfield in 2nd and poor finishing from Livi we would have undoubtedly lost today.
    No animation from touchline manager so have to assume the players were doing as instructed !!
    Great result, fantastic goal but play like that 2nd half again next week and we'll get demolished big time.

    give it a rest, the game is grossly over priced
    If you don't care, why the smart-arse comments?
    And how good was your grasp on economics before you discovered google?
    And when did the ticket price ever stop rangers fans getting in the home end? a phenomenon known as the Paisley-based, occasional rangers supporter will ensure that they are in the home end regardless of price if the away sections sell out

    His alcohol-fueled Friday night posts seem to be the most vicious and cowardly
    You can only wonder at how the working week can be so bad that he has to resort to this after his first Advocaat and lemonade of the weekend.
    I wouldn't wind him up though, he is fierce when he gets started

    Since when did a saints forum become a place for venting vicarious outrage on behalf of someone who reportedly wound up TF over the illness and death of his kid?

    I have the hospitality suite booked for a business event that runs till 15:00 day so it will be a major challenge for the staff to turn the place around
    Chances are I'll be told to go elsewhere and the club will lose out on a couple of grand
    I really hate the BBC

    Sorry, he inherited a good budget and some good-ish players who needed some leadership, not a shambles.
    he was only disadvantaged in relation to the rangers and hibs managers in this league. Everyone else had to make several signings from where they could
    he was also appointed before the end of last season, so had time to prepare (even if the official start date was delayed a little)
    Stuff the idea that we needed to focus on rebuilding-it just doesnt happen in this league where returns diminish for every season you stay down in it. You need to hit the ground hard and running in this league and it seems he never got that-despite "knowing" this division
    Good on him for trying, but he has let us down
    4 wins in god knows how many games is not a good stat

    Yes you are confusing him with the other guy
    hardly surprising, given the similarity of the allegations
    Other confusion could arise if there truth in the rumour that his predicament was also similar to that of Bishop Len Brennan and the wee memento he left behind on holiday

    really is bad when people call you nasty names on a website. But using that kind of language only shows up their ignorance, you wouldn't want to sink to their level, would you?

    cyclists should be given the same room as motorists and are encouraged to leave around a car's width between themselves and the road edge. It's only frustrating if you lack patience.
    a few weeks ago i was cycling along a short section of road with a 750mm edge to allow for large drains, the edge of the usable road is marked with a white line and even cyclists need to stay on the right of it. A car passed me by no more than 6 inches and the passenger yelled to me to get in the "cycle lane". The car was then stopped 50 metres up the road at lights. I cycled up alongside and chapped the window and could hear the driver telling the passenger (both men) not to open the window. It was hilarious to see them bottle it after the big talk but it's a serious point. Most road users know feck all about the rules of the road or road markings and a high percentage of drivers are aggressive towards cyclists. These two guys could easily have killed me with their bravado

    I was having a joke, a paisley driver told me he got a sanction of some sort from the polis for not wearing his tie
    he still didnae get a tip, except to say that using the tie to hold his trousers up didnae count

    What innuendo could possibly arise from a smart young woman with an eye on a career deciding not to get married? What evidence do you have that she got married just to advance her political career?
    To infer that she got married just to stop people like YOU inferring something about her single status is easily the most misogynistic and hateful comment that I have seen on this forum.
    Alonside your homophobic comments on another thread, you have really shown yourself up. I hope you are proud
