  1. It has been done in other sports, notably track & field & cycling. It gives no particular satisfaction to the amended recipient (well, a wee bit), but more importantly it recognises and underlines the policy that cheats and those that seek to achieve success through illegal means should, and will, have any recognition removed and given to those that abide by law, whether sporting, or fiscal. Gie us our League Cup!!!!
  2. exactly- that's what real football fans are. The eses fans that do make it to perth will have a cracking time. Shame it was a crap game- thought the ref was good. Couldn't get time off to make it from Australia, but watching the game live at 3am was at least something. Sadly the missus found the ads at half time more interesting than the game. She had a point. For once.
  3. The Iron Curtain & The Stasi may have been confined to history like Rangers, but Saints fans have been operating sleeper cells in Melbourne for years COYS.
  4. Think it's imperative that most of the squad have a level of association with the town beyond 2 hours training on North Inch (or wherever) 5 days a week & 2 hours pre/post game day. Perth are their "customers", and its not good enough that they can p/ss off to Glasgow 40 minutes after a game. Wear it, Perth's a good spot if you're lucky enough to earn good £££.
  5. Yeah... For that matter they haven't said who's in the middle. They could've at least put clarification after their names- such as "James keatings (the black dude), XYZ (peely Wally white lad), & Lomas (the orangutang). It's just lazy.
  6. I wanted to sign myself. Not for talent, but for being an exotic international. That view hasn't changed. And Del is in my bedroom.
  7. An old timer, but this was recent & special. Was working on a project in Kings Canyon, about 1000ks west of Alice Springs. Got BBC World Service on satellite, it was 3am, sitting in the 4wd in the middle of the desert, listening for updates & heard the 4-1 rangers score. I went mental, which was quite sad, as there are only about 15 people living within 5000ks of Kings Canyon. But damn it was good
  8. Well that's the Melbourne Saints & quite a few local Perth mates out of this one. I'd rather enjoy a damned good hangover than support this short-sightedness. The board need to declare why- fair enough if there are financial detriments. But they should do something to galvanise support. A "please explain" is required. Go Saints.
  9. He was a very good administrator. That was his job. His role should never have included any direct contact with fans, That's not his forte.
  10. Sad to say, but a 2-1 loss to the **** is not a bad result at all. I remember the days of 5-0. Sounds like a good, well drilled performance. Key thing now is to replicate & advance this against sides who we should be more competitive with. Beat Motherwell & I am happy.
  11. Mate, you're starting to answer your own questions. It's lie-down time. I think you're right though.... Good call.
  12. Duberry going to TannaDump? My arse. As has been said previously he's a happy chappy, got his personal life pretty sorted & happy at the mighty Saints. He's not playing for money, just enjoying playing. Long may it continue (for one year at least!).
  13. The Auld Scum would disagree! Do agree with the point, tho'... would be good to get more Perthhsire lads playing for the jersey
  14. It's a difficult one. Sammy would work well as he has the pace to keep up with Haber. On the other hand, Parkin could be an option as he offers something different to Haber, but would need to be positioned well up the park to get the passes. Sammy for me.
