  1. Andy, what’s the story with George Thorne? I know he has had his injuries but last I heard he was fully fit. No sign of him in the play-offs. 

    I once joked with him to come to Saints on loan when Marcus Haber was here. They were at WBA together.

  2. I think the important thing to remember in this is that the Brown family will have no desire to profit out of the sale of the football club. It has been stated before by Geoff Brown that the most important thing is to pass the club onto the "right" person. 

    Certain constraints would require to be imposed regarding future dissolution of assets (ie sale of the site) and assurances regarding maintaining the McDiarmid name. Another requirement for me is that the Brown name would maintain to be connected with the club permanently.

    It must never be forgotten that Geoff saved our club from oblivion and Steve has brought us our greatest success (to date). 

     

  3. One thing I'd like to have seen us capitalise on was the 25th anniversary (very soon to be the 30th anniversary) of The Airdrie Game.

    This is something a lot of us of a certain generation would have probably enjoyed. Maybe even just ensuring the surviving players are in or about McDiarmid for the Hamilton home fixture which is near the actual date? A showing of the match day footage in a lounge with some of the players would have been good. Mark Treanor told me he had watched it a few years back.

     

     

  4. Beside the statues of Geoff Brown and Tommy Wright there must be one for Paul Smith for all he's done for Saints. I appreciate he was in paid employment (and understand he's back in another capacity) but he was spinning a lot of plates (and not on the catering side).

    Our SLO Beve does an amazing job as do the staff in the ticket office.
