Hi Exiles. Not been on in a long long time. Sorry I have missed allot of chat in my time away. Hope everyone is well. Essex

keep the same selection...build continuity. I hope Stevie gets on the score sheet though this time. Do him good.

not been on in ages...but what a good idea.

..... Even though I have said that in my last comment I can't help thinking saints will pull out a suprise signing none of us were expecting. It's all very quiet at the moment.

Totaly agree. A pure kick in the balls to May and the fans tbh. Like May or not he would have given us something to smile about.. Even if its just his haircut.

Really like the home top. Away top I can't take or leave....home top lovely though. Don't care if its "off the shelf".

Love the look of the top. Totaly different but that's why I like it.

Thank you for organising. Great to be a part of the day even though I'm so many miles away.

I actually like the fact its very different. It beats plain yellow. I hope the home top is as creative as this one.

Done x

Hello. So sorry I haven't been on in a very long time. Just logged on today and got your messages. I heard the sad news on facebook. I was actually gutted. I met Athens for first time in the times square and had a few drinks with him. Great guy and of course a great saints fan. I will happily donate towards the cause. I'll use the PayPal link. Essex

Athens, I totally understand where you are coming from but I would probably still look to post in the main forum when I do. I wouldn't like to "exile" myself even further. I already feel like a knob end being over 400 miles away from McD. I don't want to make that even worse.

Have I read this right....Brora got fined ten years ago for some shi* at a saints game.....and it's only now in 2017 he is responding to the event and the comments of others made back in 2006? Have I gone mad or has that just happened?

From what I have seen so far this season in Perth, on TV and reading match reports I'm going to say Liam. Thanks for getting the ball rolling on this Athens.

Benefit his confidence. He is a confidance player. He will thrive if being in such a set up playing potentially against much better players than in spfl. Also he will be much more use to playing abroad and training abroad which can only be good if we have ambitions of playing In Europe every other season. In a nutshell it will boost confidence and Give him a great experience playing internationally against unknown quantities. Can only benefit us.

Great for spoony and saints. As already said, no chance of getting into Scotland squad. Can only help develop him. Happy with this if it is infact an accurate story.

Yeh agree, but is he not injured?

The sooner they f*** off to some other league that they think will benefit them, the better. scottish football will thrive without them long term.

Cheers Athens....this parenting malarkey cuts down on my "social media" time.

Not posted in ages and feel I should be saying something ground shattering due to this, but............I would be happy to see MOH back.

Saints did alright in the end tbh. No other team will get close to Celtic this season for the league. We won't play better this season. we should aim for second place

COYS make us proud...again

I'm randomly very exciting about this. Ill be logging on at 2.30 pm hoping to be wowed........or will it go into meltdown and crash!?!?

"People in Perth....Food on the table". What u in about? Your right it's not the convo that's needed just now. Not even relevant to the thread. Don't try and twist my comment. My point is that my original post politely asking if people outwith Scotland can be part of the exiles isn't "laughable" as you put it, and that it's just as difficult to get to a game from Essex as it is from some other countries in Europe. Credit to ur pal in Manchester trying to get to as many games. Well done to him. Not criticising anyone. But why the bad love originally? You of all people living abroad should understand the issues not living near Perth.....or do u want ur own wee special exiles club this exclusive, special handshakes sacrificing goats, that can only be entered with proof of residency abroad? 90% of what u said I totally agree with it was just the fact that u feel that strongly about excluding those who live the other end of the country....I'm closer to France than Perth.....does that not count?

Don't get your point quoting my post.....I don't think u understood my original point as you yourself have just backed it up! Yes he was positive about being an exile living outside the UK which must be extremely difficult for any saints fan in that situation and frustrating. I do feel for those abroad The original point slightly mocks people like urself and myself living in England and finding it tough to get to games. You summed it up for me with ur definition.
