Edgar, are you heading down?

[Baiggers]

:wink:

[Saintkev]

May I Baiggers?

[Baiggers]

May I Baiggers?

No concrete plans laid down, just pointing out that either Edgar or my brother will be taking their car in which I'll be claiming a seat :D

You would need to ask them but I don't see it being a problem.

[Saintkev]

Okay, I will! Cheers dude!

[Tranmere Saintee]

Anybody likely to be travelling from the Stirling area or who could make it through to Stirling to car share, to save me travelling back to Perth just to come back down the bloody A9 again?

[Tranmere Saintee]

Have written to Paul to see if he knows what is happening - will post up his response if nobody finds out before then. (actually hope it has been moved as I have something else on on Tuesday :wink: ).s

[Tranmere Saintee]

New date is Tuesday 21/03.

[Hazel1884]

Not being ignorant , remind me why i asked :oops:

No idea....probably something to do with the pages of drivel that were produced in this thread about my driving!

(Incidentally, provisional forms are filled in, will be posted tomorrow! Yeeeehooooo!) :wink: :roll: :P

[stanley saint]

[Hazel1884]

hayley, you can start it and drive it (or i manged too anyway!) with the handbreak on - it just isn't exactly a smooth journey when changing gears ( :oops: ), prone to stalling ( :oops: ) and probably not good for the car ( :oops: ). Pain in the buttocks though, i ended up just driving a work van around the site... :***:

[Tranmere Saintee]

I see this has been moved again (according to todays PA) to Sunday 19/03 at 14:30.

[Kevin]

Aye, it was also put onto the Offical Sts site yesterday in the Dougie Barron article

http://www.stjohnstonefc.co.uk/newsitem~NewsID~1638.asp

[Saintkev]

Which meant I couldn't go as I am meant to be playing football for the Perthshire Tartan Army, however, I have just discovered that I am ineligible, so anyone going down fancy giving me a lift in exchange for petrol money!?

[Hazel1884]

tranmere Saintee are you still going?

[Tranmere Saintee]

Will probably be going down from Perth, so presume that is 2 places gone already to SK & Hazel :roll:

Do not know why this happens, but I have only just seen the Dougie (what a player) Barron article, despite having looked at the official site earlier on today. This is not the first time this has happened and I log onto the site from different PC's and neither my home PC (last night) or my works PC (his morning) were showing this article :?

I certainly saw it last night after I returned home from 5's about 9.15pm. Maybe next time try refreshing the page as it may have stored a cookie or something similar in your Temporary Internet Files folder (or something similar).

Whoops, SK is me... I've talked Layna into taking me down...

A day in Gretna with the Missus... that'll get her Maw panicking!

[Tranmere Saintee]

Whoops, SK is me... I've talked Layna into taking me down...

A day in Gretna with the Missus... that'll get her Maw panicking!

I have spoken to Layna's Ma & Pa and we are having a whip round to pay for the ceremony :***:

[Saintkev]

In that case, it's Nevis and St Kitts for the Wedding... New Zealand for the Meal... and the Tulloch Institute for the piss-up, you can give me the cheque in Gretna! :D

[Saintkev]

As if I didn't hate Gretna enough already, from the Saints Website...

"The Reserve League Cup semi-final away to Gretna has been subject to another date change. The game will now take place at Raydale Park next Wednesday afternoon, 22nd March, with a 1pm kick-off. We apologise to any supporters who had been planning to make the trip this coming Sunday."

I'll not be making this then... tits!

[Hazel1884]

That is basically making it unlikely that any Saints fans (or indeed any fans!) will be able to make it....

What a bunch of arseholes....

[Saintkev]

Exactly... Brooks Mileson - Man Of The People my hoop!

[Tranmere Saintee]

Have sent an email to the club, registering my disgust at the way we have been treated again.

I was of the opinion that football was supposed to be played in front of fans and that if a club does not have at least basic facilities then it should not be allowed into the league in the first place. :x

[Hazel1884]

Have sent an email to the club, registering my disgust at the way we have been treated again.

Was thinking about doing the same myself, TS!

Is this not the fourth time we have been changed around? What is wrong with it playing it on the Sunday? I think that was the best date of the lot and were guaranteed a few more fans trekking down to a ground which not many have been to, for a day out, and more than likely a few more Gretna fans there too = more profit for Mileson!

I hope there's a good reason for it being changed :x

[chopper]

I think I might take the day off and go down now!

[saintbear]

MAYBE A WEE SICKIE :wink:

[Tranmere Saintee]

Well thats your Mother sent the hat back again :roll:

[Tranmere Saintee]

I might saunter down depending on the weather. I won't take my Union flag though! :wink:

I want to meet their chairman and call him Mr Miles Brookson.

Wouldn't make any travel arrangements if I were you - there is a very good chance that the date will be changed again :wink:

[Saintkev]

What's happening here?

[Tranmere Saintee]

What's happening here?

I believe it is still going ahead despite my protestations - OC didn't want those 1st team players involved, playing at night with a game to come on the Saturday!! How the hell do the successful teams in Europe cope?

[Hazel1884]

Is anybody going to make the trip then?

[chopper]

Is anybody going to make the trip then?

I am considering it at the moment - depends on how much work I can get done tomorrow.

[soccerchic]

MAYBE A WEE SICKIE :wink:

Eh, I don't think so!!! :wink:

[Tranmere Saintee]

It's not closed door or anything stupid like that?

It may as well be as they have excluded 99% of the fans that would have been there for a sensible kick-off time :evil: I just hope the forecast snow is really heavy :roll:

[MUZZ]

MAYBE A WEE SICKIE :wink:

Eh, I don't think so!!! :wink:who wears the trousers in that house then :wink:

[Saintkev]

Team is;

Cuthbert
Anderson, Black, Weir, Paterson
Dyer, Mensing, Jancyk
Coyle, Milne, McCallum.

[Kevin]

Team is;

Cuthbert
Anderson, Black, Weir, Paterson
Dyer, Mensing, Jancyk
Coyle, Milne, McCallum.

That is a team in itself!! COuld stand their own in Div 1 as well methinks :shock:

[Saintkev]

5 Mins: Good work from young McCallum robs a Gretna defender and Coyle is on hand to score. 1 -0 to the poor team! :D

[Saintkev]

21 Mins: Savo booked for dissent over a throw-in! Crowd figure comes in as 14... 12 Gretna, Radders and his Bro (good work on the time and day :roll: ) 'Stars' for Gretna include Canning, Jenkins, McQuilken, Lennon, Dollins and Sheils...

[Hazel1884]

Mon Blacky!!!! :D

[Saintkev]

Half Time. 1-0 to the non-millionaires!

Their keeper not had a save to make, Cat, only one. Paterson & Mensing are impressing, Scrabble isn't!

[Saintkev]

Apparently killing them this half, Coyle, Anderson and Scrabble all came close and Mensings cross had a vital touch to take it away from Black.

Radders reckon's we'll score within 10 minutes! And I'm just away to go into a meeting too!

Send him my number then

[Saintkev]

Fair play to Radders...

Savo put through by Scrabble and slides it past the keeper with ease!

2-0
'Mon The Cheapskates!

[Tranmere Saintee]

Finished 2 - 0.

The rich and mighty finished with 10 men after using all their subs and then having another player go off injured with 5 mins to go.

Thanks Radford.

[Tranmere Saintee]

We will face either Hamilton or St Midden in the final.

[Hazel1884]

We will face either Hamilton or St Midden in the final.

On a suitable date please Saints and Hamilton/St Mirren :twisted:

[monkey]

Team is;

Cuthbert
Anderson, Black, Weir, Paterson
Dyer, Mensing, Jancyk
Coyle, Milne, McCallum.

So with Owen and Jim on the park, I take it there was no-one in the dugout, ?

[monkey]

Cheers Radford, thought it was unusual for noone to be in the dugout doing what they do :)

[blueheaven]

Anyone know what the deal is likely to be with the final? Will it be played at a neutral venue, or is there a chance of it being at McD?
