St.Ricky Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 It would be good to make it all the way but at least through the opening round and then see where it takes us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a first team competitive match which fans were charged money to witness. Jack leaves St Mirren as a League winner. But certainly not a legend. Black marks for Challenge Cup disgrace. And he should have been slapped down for offering that goalie a Contract Extension. Pantomime on Greenhill Road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know there is a format for this but appreciate you deciphering it! Had Killie been coming to us then we would have had a cracking opener to the season at home.
