HSS Posted August 1, 2017 Report Share Posted August 1, 2017 1 hour ago, TPAFKA Jersey 2 said: FFS Ally Hunter couldn't have played more than a handful of games for us. Didn't he only play in a short spell when Donald was injured. Also despite it being a very long time ago and my memory isn't quite what it was, I don't even remember him doing anything particularly horrific in that handful of games. Thought he was a fairly reliable temporary replacement. Super Ally played 10 games for Saints.Won 4,lost 5 and 1 draw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm surprised it was even that many! Shull doesn't take long to form an opinion does he? And not just an opinion but one that lasts for 40 years. Also can't believe that Ally Hunter was on a shite goalkeepers list that Jim Herriot and Scrim weren't on!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLBud Posted August 1, 2017 Report Share Posted August 1, 2017 Shull doesn't take long to form an opinion does he? And not just an opinion but one that lasts for 40 years. You should ask him about David Elliot and Jim Gardner![emoji23] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am out of Sportscene & Scotsport footage from the era, Take my word for it ...... ALLY HUNTER WAS A SHITE ST MIRREN GOALKEEPER He was asked at an away match to give the magnificent St Mirren Fans a wave. HE FECKING REFUSED Donald always obliged. DONALD HUNTER IS A ST MIRREN LEGEND. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you, Scrim did save a half time penalty by Jimmy H at the Grimsby friendly in 2001. That said, it was the worst penalty ever taken by anyone ever. As they used to say in the old days, he could've saved it by throwing his bunnet on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
