TopCat Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 look certain to suffer from an unofficial boycott, with fewer than 100 home fans said to have so far confirmed their attendance. This would certainly send a message if true, Would love to know the source for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaldyOzBud Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 Who wrote that article? And you going to hold your hands up for your blunder in the Accies thread? The journalist was not named as far as I could see on the link, I'm guessing that it may have been Graeme Macpherson, Herald journo and Buddie.

aldo_j Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 Would love to know the source for that. Apart from that part, I think the article is fairly reflective of the current situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty bizarre, no? Don't remember seeing an article like that on a national newspaper without the journalist named on the article. Seems pretty cowardly.

WeeBud Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 (edited) If you think setting and then matching a generation league high record in two of the last three seasons, and winning a title in the other is 'major problems' .... Then you have higher expectations than me. I'm sure "Slash" doesn't need me to defend him but he didn't say "major problems" he said that Tommy Craig was a "major part of the problems".......you yourself wanted Lennon to go, as did I (although I never really said it out loud), and I can only guess that was because you believed there was some sort of problem that required sorting or changing.

To be fair I've seen a few articles in online editions unaccredited, perhaps in the paper version it may be different, but I have to admit that I agree 100% with what was said.

irvine_buddie Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 (edited) Most Many people going will just buy their tickets on the day so doesn't surprise me theres only been 100 or so sold so far. There will be over 1000 home fans im sure but not by much. [Edit - Is that better? ] Edited November 25, 2014 by irvine_buddie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife, grandson and I ALWAYS buy our tickets to reserve our ST seats as do a few of the guys I know who have Season tickets. Best you revise that by -3 or more.

foxbar_bud Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 to echo others, we usually buy our tickets before hand to guarantee our ST seats, so thats 3 down as well. Whilst im not sure only 100 tickets have been sold, the more i speak to other ST holders and what can be seen on here, the attendance on saturday has the real potential to be a disaster. Out of curiosity, does anyone know the lowest crowd at the new stadium? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you have higher expectations than me. You slagged off Lennon last season, suggesting his record was atrocious compared to your man Gus. Now its a great record? Double standards, methinks.

murray street Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 When tommy is speaking to the media he is speaking in code, I will decipher it for you, "tell me to get tae fuck all you want, I am not budging till you pay me up" "face look bothered" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saint in exile Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 The most telling sentence in the Herald article is "It is a particularly damning statistic that St Mirren are the only team from the eight divisions of senior British football yet to record a clean sheet this season.". Yet TC only talks about our inability to score goals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh, haven't you read above. It's a cowardly, anonymous attack designed to unsettle our wonderful manager... The article is spot on. The BOD can't be f**ked anymore, and if we go down this year we'll be down for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
