I'm very certain it was 98, but I will double check. 

We have completed 98 seasons in the top flight. 

The 1939/40 season was abandoned after 5 matches due to the outbreak of WWII and in general excluded from all records. Totally subjective of course, could argue either way this forthcoming season will be our 99th or 100th in the top flight. Anyone got any thoughts on this?

Anyway Sir, keep up the good Work, always a good read.

Even though the season was abandoned, it was still started.

I would say the century celebrations should begin.

Great read! Nice to read the sporting history of oor wee toon. 

 

I did spot this however and think, if they were still in existence there would be one or two saints fans from BAWA swapping allegiances....

Paisley Olympic FC; 'Paisley Olympic FC were made up exclusively of academics' 

Aye, me and gstretch.

More likely paramedics given the state of Paisley now.

Brilliant.

It's the reality of the situation from a fans point of view. Like the author if the accounts show extreme negligence I wont take out my season ticket next season. Will again when fan ownership takes over. Silence is deadly even with a SMISA member on the board. Will stick with SMISA but clearly some kind of restructuring is needed by members. Maybe things are not too bad. But if the accounts are in a bad state then SMISA needs to stand and be counted for the club.  One crises to the next what is going on.

The really worrying thing is the lack of communication from the board.

Talk of top 4 without an associated plan to allow us to buy into it is just nonsense.

Gordon appears to have gone totally mute.

We are clearly in trouble and I think some kind of communication would help.

It hardly bares thinking about that we play Hibs next week with our squad in this state.

I am certainly not a knickerwetter but I am asking myself WTF is going on.

This is so spot on, I could have penned it myself (however didn't have all the arguments in my head at the one time!:wacko:) ...............….and been proud of it.

I have only read this, after posting two other items in different subjects saying much the same thing. Great post. :)
