Unfortunately, our manager didn't give a damn. Like 2005/06, we had a great opportunity to do the Double again. Picking the best team available, we probably would have crushed Raith Rovers. The St Mirren paying public were let down by Ross. Looked like most of the 7000 Buddies had a marvelous day in Airdrie when we lifted the Challenge Cup v Hamilton Academical. We had outstanding travelling supports at the other Challenge Cup Finals that we participated in. Meant a lot to most St Mirren fans.

The Title win was great and a Challenge Cup triumph would have made the Season even better, just like 2005/06. Cup wins are fantastic. Losing to Dundee United at Fir Park was another major disappointment although a good occasion and a magnificent Saints support. All Clubs in Scotland should participate in the Challenge Cup except those playing in Europe. Definitely no B Clubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W6er Posted October 27, 2023 Report Share Posted October 27, 2023 Plenty of seats available: Possible Reasons 1) End of the month - folk are skint. 2) It's St. Johnstone, an unfashionable team who are sitting bottom. 3) We've lost our unbeaten record. 4) They'll only bring about 150 fans, so less of an atmosphere. 5) Folk are going to Halloween parties and need to get their costumes ready. 6) Strain's suspended. Have I missed anything? Prediction: 2-0 Paisley Saints. 5,746. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It literally is paid into my account on the last working day of the month... 😕 I need to budget for Christmas, too. Glad the Celtic tickets have sold out, as was considering going (they gave us 400 tickets, btw!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had a decent draw at Aberdeen and a great draw at Parkhead. Still think we will 2.0. Coys Sent from my SM-S906B using Tapatalk They, also have not won a league game this season, scoring a mighty 3 goals in 8 games. As we're at home this will be another home win and take us onto an impressive 18 points from 9 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, if we get an early goal it could be double that. Fake Saints games have produced 7 goals on one occasion but typically not a high scoring fixture. (See comment on early goal).

munoz Posted October 28, 2023 Report Share Posted October 28, 2023 Any kind of win and 3 points please. Obviously we have a far superior squad than them but nothing is a given. 6-0 Saints ( or 2-1) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope Robinson sends our lot onto the park with an instruction to aim for a 12-0 victory to reclaim our 2nd place in the league. 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alwaystrue Posted October 28, 2023 Report Share Posted October 28, 2023 Looking forward to it today. Still going for a 2 - 1 Saints victory. Hopefully another decent turnout and I can honestly say I've missed the scalding hot Bovril 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StanleySaint Posted October 28, 2023 Report Share Posted October 28, 2023 Looks like a defent side, wonder about Flynn lasting the 90, I also wondered if the management would look at whether ther is potential for Jamieson to be coached to fill that right sided wing back role, just a thought.

BigYardsAndBasher Posted October 28, 2023 Report Share Posted October 28, 2023 I think this will be a scrappy game with St. Johnstone desperate to get something out of this game. I'm going for St. Mirren 1-0 St. Johnstone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
