  1. Ignoring the fact that the leaky vaccines still allow transmission, Britain is now a heavily vaccinated country with a low death rate - by prioritising boosters for healthy people with well functioning immune systems over assisting developing nations with large numbers of unvaccinated people seems an odd way of going about things If it was all about saving lives, they would be prioritising getting the NHS back to full capacity - waiting lists for cancer treatment, operations etc. are absolutely massive and need to be addressed as a matter of priority Moving on to boosters 4, 5, 6, 7 at such a frantic rate is unnecessary and not what the public signed up for. What happened to getting back to normal once most of the population was vaccinated?
  2. Is the penny dropping for anyone yet?
  3. It's a great shout, club could also donate free tickets if they are feeling generous. Better than having empty seats and could make someone's weekend to have a free day out to the football
  4. With McGrath and Erhahon out, would be tempted to go 2 up front tonight? Brophy and Main
  5. Could the club hold fundraising events? Perhaps have a few ex players or club legends do talks in the club bar. I'm sure they would sell like hot cakes, especially if we knew the money was going to such a worthwhile cause
  6. By the definitions going around - are we all committing a hate crime by singing the Stevie Thompson song? "Played for the h_n's but we don't care" The reality is that it's down to JN to decide if his position is tenable If not, he will resign Can't imagine he will be sacked if he doesn't want to resign
  7. It’s up to him whether he resigns… I do think that apologising on Twitter made it worse, open goal for their mutants who will use it to point score for eternity. Other than the bridge tweet none of them were that bad. Didn’t see that one when I searched and I know some were photoshopped so not sure if that was legit? maybe deleted by now Should be setting clear social media guidelines for all club employees.

    COP26

    Surely they could WFH like everyone else is being asked to
  9. We should have some sort of St Mirren club card system where all tickets can be loaded on to. Could just top up your account, even link it to Paypal. Sort of like a St Mirren Oyster card where you can add games and use that for entry/club shop/1877 club. Golf clubs have them for spending at the bar or pro shop. Not sure why football clubs haven't made use of that tech.
  10. Just read the report. He didn't seem the type to be scrapping in nightclubs Guess that's what happens when you start hanging about with Cummings and Gowser
  11. Bit of a weird one, you'd expect them to play decent football with some of the players they've got - seem more keen to put the boot in than play attractive football In other news, mind when people said losing Alex Jakubiak was the worst thing ever? doesn't even get a game for Dundee Wouldn't take any of their players in our first 11 as it stands
  12. Only change I'd be looking at would be to counter Ross Callachan, always causes us problems. Hopefully an in form Alan Power will sort him out. Would like to see Flynn get a chance to start at some point
  13. Yep 100% got to be McCarthy, has earned his right to start. Dunne will need to play his way back into the team. Not a bad thing to have competition for places
  14. Brown risking a second yellow there, should never risk the wrath of Willie
  15. what are you doing 😐 delete this
  16. Long balls to Brophy don't work. Sky stats had him down as only touching the ball 8x at around the 35th minute Ronan and McGrath need to start combining
  17. Aye, you can forgive a fortunate goal, but you can't expect to win games if defenders aren't holding shape, midfielders not tracking back and ball watching at set pieces. Lucky not to be further behind. Not good enough towards the end of that half
  18. Goodwin must be raging. He was talking about keeping it tight at the back recently but all over the place at the moment, basic errors like ball watching
  19. What were the defence playing at. Brutal. Free header
