div Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 Do you think the reported 100 people woke up that morning and just decided to break into the stadium just incase there was snow on the pitch? There wasn't anywhere close to 100 people on the pitch. It was maybe 30-40 individuals at most. Mostly made up of UWS students who were there to do the TV/Radio stuff, Youth Players and Club Officials including Campbell Kennedy & Brian Caldwell. I had spoken to Brian a couple of times in the morning to post updates on the game on twitter, and offered to go down and help given I live just 5 mins drive away. There was no communication at all, official or unofficial, with fans to come down and help clear the snow off the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
div Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 Again... Who said it was ruined? Your trolling and diving in at every opportunity is showing you up. If you really dont want me to express an opinion on here, about the club I have supported for forty od years you can do that more effectively than this. And throwing 'the groundsman" in for effect... Really? Would he want that? Are you denying he was on the pitch too? It was you who said, and I quote; calling in all and sundry to inflict GBH on Scotland's finest playing surface with an array of garden and household tools I'm merely pointing out that this "GBH" as you describe it, left the park fully playable three days later and all efforts to clear the park were overseen by the groundsman. Darling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HSS Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 I do agree that some on here should take a good look at themselves, those likening their support to 'Inbreds' should be first in front of the mirror.I don't know what you do for a living LP but I've been thinking for a while now that you should write a book.You have a good grasp for words,you can be quite funny occasionally and you have a superb imagination.Seriously you should give it a go.

Darling. I have no idea what you are banging on about? You lift a quote i made to another poster, and throw in that in some way I have abused/accused the groundsman.... The desperation in all this deflection is unsightly. Instead of you, SGG et all all shouting from the roof tops what Chick Young. "Didnt say".... Why not just get him to repeat what he did say..? End of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeeBud Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 Paraphrased? You completely misunderstood what I was saying. The sanctions would be imposed if Wishaw Wycombe had postponed a match without the venue owner closing the facility, or without a referee conducting a pitch inspection and deeming the pitch unplayable. We could also have faced sanctions had we done what St Mirren had done and had the match postponed 10 minutes before kick off with the park unplayable and with weather warnings in place. Those sanctions would typically have taken the form of covering all travel costs for the opposition. For clarity there is no onus on the home side to do everything possible to defeat Mother Nature - not at any level of the game. That is utter nonsense from start to finish Stuart, if you read all the posts around about the one I quoted you were sanctimoniously allowing us to understand how you knew more than everyone else due to your position with Wishaw Wanderers with regard to cancelling fixtures and the impending "sanctions" if things weren't done properly. From the post above the referee deemed the pitch playable in the morning (frost related) and again after lunch (snow related). St Mirren never "had" the match postponed the referee decided that due to deterioration in the weather since his previous inspection the pitch was no longer playable and he (the referee) postponed the fixture.

Stu Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 There wasn't anywhere close to 100 people on the pitch. It was maybe 30-40 individuals at most. Mostly made up of UWS students who were there to do the TV/Radio stuff, Youth Players and Club Officials including Campbell Kennedy & Brian Caldwell.

There was no communication at all, official or unofficial, with fans to come down and help clear the snow off the pitch. As I thought, thus rendering the much repeated claim that Who has said that he had to take into account the efforts the club made to get the game on. You're right the referee makes the decision but it was the club that summoned volunteers in a bid to get a match on when Scotland had a weather warning in place. That decision was bonkers. Is actually a load of nonsense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pozbaird Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 If you play that clip backwards it plays a Pink Floyd song.... The lunatic is on the grass The lunatic is on the grass Remembering games and daisy chains and laughs Got to keep the loonies on the path The lunatic is in the hall The lunatics are in my hall The paper holds their folded faces to the floor And every day the paper boy brings more And if the dam breaks open many years too soon And if there is no room upon the hill And if your head explodes with dark forbodings too I'll see you on the dark side of the moon The lunatic is in my head The lunatic is in my head You raise the blade, you make the change You re-arrange me 'till I'm sane You lock the door And throw away the key There's someone in my head but it's not me. And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear You shout and no one seems to hear And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes I'll see you on the dark side of the moon "I can't think of anything to say except... I think it's marvellous! HaHaHa!" How in the name of fcuk could the lunatic be on the grass when it was covered in snow. Seriously, this forum these days. Get a grip Slash.

Lord Pityme Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 Chic Young spoke to Tommy Docherty and was told the u/s heating hadn't been on Someone else who misheard things? All that has been said, claimed, played is what Chick didnt say. Then we get a select sample of recordings which the website owner had felt necessary to go to the BBC to obtain, edit and play (hope the appropriate licences are in place to play BBC recordings). Snippets fron open all mics... Talk about obssession..? We havent had Chick back on to state in fact he never said any of it! We still are bemused how the USH at Firhill of all places melted the snow as it fell, after the first batch was swept off. Same at Ibrox, but not at ours. Maybe it didnt snow at all? Maybe the game wasn't called off? Maybe we got our first home win of the season??? Well the last one is perhaps the most fanciful? Looking forward to a cracking day in Edinburgh, and anything we can get out of it will be a bonus, if anyone needs to hear any of the open all mic commentary, but cant tune in on the day I am sure it will be available on here next week. Well maybe not all of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
