Saint Garf Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 As long as we avoid the Colt teams I don't really care. A wee trip to Ireland would be nice right enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said even before we'd played East Kilbride that if we won and got through I wouldn't be going if we were drawn against a colt team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingscot Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 Should save time and money and not even bother opening any stands for this one. Treat the SPFL's 'colt' pish with the respect it deserves- none. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JM1 Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 I won't be going to the Hearts Colts game. Record low Saints crowd? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Garf Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 Waste of f**king time. Make season tickets valid, let everyone else in for £2, kids for free. If we play a half decent team, at least the kids that come to watch will get to see us score a few goals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shull Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 Full First Team to play and wipe the floor with the Jambos Colts. Want to win this Trophy. Some True Fan Tumshies above will be thrilled to purchase a Ticket for the Final. COME ON THE SAINTS IN EVERY COMPETITIVE MATCH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oaksoft Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 Well we COULD deliberately try and lose this game. Maybe a better alternative would be to ruthlessly beat this colt team 15-0 and send a message that the credibility of the cup is being undermined by their inclusion.

RossCSmfc Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 I hope we play our under 20s; Hearts have finished above us just once in a period that has seen three youth league reforms over several years (SPL Under 19s/u20s/SPFL Development League. That in itself makes a complete mockery of the situation. Can also see this being the lowest crowd since we moved. I will go because I would still love to see us win this competition but I hope we send out a message by knocking them out with our superior young players.

Brilliant ideas I can't wait. Indeed. As many free tickets should be given out to schools & youth clubs as possible; it's going to cost us a fortune hosting this farce regardless so we'd be as well putting potential future supporters on the seats if they're going to be empty anyway. A decent sized crowd (including a much smaller entry fee for non season ticket holders) would get our young players pumped up for the game too.

ged62 Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 Good to see most agreeing, this competition is a total farce. Think we should just play our under 20's too, I'd rather our club concentrate on more important things TBH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
