I’d say there’s a fair chance that they wouldn’t have. Can’t believe that after the numbers prove we are not really any worse off than the last game, you’re still championing that stance. You’re having a shocker mate. Let me try again since i don't understand your post. Our west, east and north stand hold around 6400, roughly what the crowd was given. In my opinion, there were far more empty seats in the west and east stand than they were fans in the family stand. Numbers proved nothing since plenty of clubs always give the crowd as the number of tickets sold, not the actual numbers that turned up.

So by that token, the last game against Celtic would’ve quoted numbers in exactly the same way?? And there were only 200 odd more fans at that game. I don’t understand your point? Whatever way you cut it, the new stance has not financially disadvantaged us in any significant way as it was predicted it would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJ McG Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 Unreal yesterday, tremendous performance, we executed that game plan superbly, after the 1st 10 minutes yesterday I knew we had a chance. Can be no doubts over the gaffer now, brilliant. Im absolutely hanging today 🤢🤮 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And gives us a better chance of securing a fanbase for future generations as I predicted it would. Baz laughed. Baz derided my optimism, vision and ambition for our club. Baz assured us it was financial suicide. Baz supported the old firm fans being behind both goals. Baz owes us an apology! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stlucifer Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 I sometimes, quite often actually, wonder who watches our games for the beeb. Tait was on for all of 26 minutes yet they have him as player of the match. In other games it could have happened but, given the monumental team display, it's baffling.

My point is i don't believe there were around 4730 fans, Saints and Tics in the home end yesterday . That is it, you want to believe that, that is fine.

TPAFKA Jersey 2 Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 Would be interested to see a photo of the West Stand yesterday, because I thought the main stand and the family stand were both considerably fuller than they’d have been in the past for an OF game. In fact I thought the Main stand looked fuller than in did in the games when they had two ends! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

norrie82 Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 A fantastic performance and one that will live long in the memory. I too had the pleasure of three Celtic fans next to me in main stand but my six year olds constant signing must have annoyed them immensely. They stood out alright . Back to the game and tactics were magnificent the application was unbelievable and what a squad of players we now have . I can’t remember a stronger squad in all my time following saints back to 1987. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott-Leeds Posted September 20, 2022 Report Share Posted September 20, 2022 I’ve seen the supposed stats on possession, but it certainly didn’t feel like that I felt we were very comfortable the whole game, it’s the best I’ve seen a game plan executed for some time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did let them build from the back but were so well drilled and sharp in our own half. When we actually got hold of the ball, we were composed, used it well right through the team, broke really quickly and it was sticking up front. It was brilliant. Another thing that went on our favour was a decent ref for a change. He wasn’t falling for the diving from the Celtic players. Some refs cave in to the big 2 up here, but he had a really solid game. Still buzzing from the performance and result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye! that is what has pleased me most about the growth of this team. The ball sticks. The defence has a breather and a chance to move upfield and regroup. Win, win! 2-0!
