linwood buddie Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 That's what pre-season should've been used for. I agree totally ,but we have another chance to work on things that can't be done on match days ,what other way would you suggest its done ?.

linwood buddie Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 That's not much of an ask ! It's so obvious from the stands , the players should speak up though as they must know they are being asked to play out with their own comfort zone. If they are speaking up & management ain't listening there ls a bigger issue. I'm sure on here we are all reasonably good at our own jobs , but ask me to wire your electrics and your taking a gamble ! It has to be the same asking players to do a different job. Can you plaster ?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester Saint Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 I agree totally ,but we have another chance to work on things that can't be done on match days ,what other way would you suggest its done ?.What makes you think I've got a different plan? I agree with what you said. However, it definitely should've been sorted long ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Recent results have been good. Link below. Unbeaten against them in the last five league outings. We're at home (Shhh!) http://www.espn.co.uk/football/sport/match/index.html?event=21;opposition=507;team=497 Can we make it six in a row undefeated? Don't ask me, I will simply roll up as usual, will cheer them onto the park, and won't boo anyone, or shout abuse at any individual. What more can I do?

norrie82 Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Yeah the team that were put to shame by thistle yesterday will be able to wipe the floor with well. Faddy, Sutton and Anier must be crapping themselves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stlucifer Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 I'm not going to attempt a prediction for this one as there are far too many variables. Will Caprice take to the field? Will McGregor be risked at right back? Will Bahoken find his feet and allow the team respite by putting pressure on the opposition defence? And that's just the obvious. I hope for a good solid performance and, at this moment in time, can only pray for victory and a start of the recovery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edinbuddie Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 At the very least we will be guaranteed 45 minutes of comedy if our new striker is playing,so still looking forward to it Dear oh dear! No time to train with his teammates, probably didn't know most of their names, thrown straight into action in a struggling team, with the midfield sitting 20 yards behind him and the big striker that's just flicked the ball on to him. He was keen to impress, trying to run in behind people and taking shots. Some of his shots were wild but to describe his performance as "45 minutes of comedy" is poor, poor stuff.

Lex Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 They can lick away , until their team gets 'licked' We will not lose this game. I thought we wouldn't lose the Ross County game, they were rubbish, they'd lost all of their 3 games. I then thought we wouldn't lose the QOTS game, we were the holders, they were first division. I was then sure we wouldn't lose at home to Patick Thistle. They were the New Kids on the Block, we were the experienced SPL side, it was in our own back yard for goodness sake. We lost all 3 games. Are we really going to avoid defeat against Motherwell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murray street Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 (edited) I had hoped that Danny and St Mirren had parted ways by now. However, we have to accept the fact that he will be in charge for the Motherwell game. This raises a lot of questions. 1: A lot of st mirren fans will be expecting him to fail and get the tactics wrong 2: Any time a Saints player makes a mistake it will be magnified. 3: Is this not added pressure that the club does not need at this point? 4: Are we stuck with Danny because we can't afford to pay him off? I honestly think Danny is better off managing Tattie Bogle United in the Simit and Drawers league, it would be better for his health, he might stop looking like his granda.

davidg Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 If Danny is in charge we need to turn up and give the team our full support. The exact same applies if we have a new gaffer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I've seen many in my day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know.. there is lots more you can do and probably have done a million times... Cheer and applaud a piece of good play. Roar on at any attacks. Applaud any attempt at goal. Applaud a good passage of play. Drown out any boooooooing during the game by the brain-dead. Oh! and of course join in any Songs, especially if its to drown out the 'Well fans.songs. I'm sure you used to do that. Actually reminds me of a saying: "don't let the Bastards grind you down".

Please give it a rest. What attitude? My point is simple. Motherwell are a far better team than County, QOTS, and Thistle, I'm sure everyone will agree. Of course the problem is in the space of the last 10 days we have lost to County, QOTS and Thistle. Have we ever had a run of 3 such poor defeats against smaller clubs before? I certainly can't remember one. Therefore it doesn't take a rocket scientist to work out its pretty unlikely we will beat Motherwell. Of course it's football and anything can happen, but we will be underdogs going into this game with all bookies and all fans of the Scottish game. I'd bite your hand off for a point right now and I'm sure most realistic Saints fans would say the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
