it's more simple that that He's just a d***

Any other predictions Random? Perhaps we'll never catch Hamilton in the league once again.

What a great day that has been. A tight, physical and very enjoyable FFIT game at the Hibs training complex this morning which ended 2-2 before a drive through to Hamilton to see the big team score 4 against the Accies and cruise to 3 points and a fourth place spot in the league. Thought we played some great stuff and the 15 minute spell after half time was magnificent.. Great to see the guys playing so hard for each other. Some top perfomances out there from the back right through to the front. Thought Clancy the ref was shite and was conned more than once by some cute Accies tactics. Oh and one final thing.... Huge respect goes to the Hamilton drummer laddie who ( unlike his so called Hamilton Accies supporting pals) stayed and supported his team right to the death. Mind you, his drum seemed to become broken after our second went in.. COYS.

As someone stated elsewhere our next 3 games are Killie, United and Dundee and I cannot see any reason why we should not be looking to take 9/9 from them. Then though , I look back to Partick at home and realise that nothing is straight forward with our team, especially when it comes to games we might class as easier. All that said though, I really believe that with more hard work, grit and determination,this team can deliver even more than the teams of the last two seasons and that SECOND place (which would be our highest ever league finish) is a possibility. For us to do that though, we really need to be constantly at the top of our game and we cannot let our guard slip at any time. Selection wise, TW will have some tough decisions to make but that is something he has dealt with quite well in his time with us. Lets hope that this time next week we are a wee bit closer to the three sides above us. COYS.

Here's hoping when the phone starts ringing about O'Halloran he takes the time to think about the reasons why his career is going from strength to strength at this club. It's not like he arrived here as the player we see now. He has benefitted massively from being at this club with this group of people round him and leaving prematurely could be disastrous for him. He's still very young and does have the time. May should have stayed here for at least one more season, possibly 18 months. He's now finding out why it wasn't the right move or the right time. He would more than benefit from a return to Scotland on loan. Be that with us or someone like Aberdeen. He needs it. Or he stays down there, plays limited football and makes as much money as he can before his inevitable return later in his career.

some inspired ramblings on the Match thread over on P&B by my old friend 101. Quality reading...

Did it again did a shift at the clink and lo and behold my saintees win again I'll have to get the mounties to lock me up for the rest of the season. Because it seems when I am doing a shift on Saturdays saints have pretty good winning record

REPLAY RESULT Benburb 3 - 3 Scone Thislte Scone Thistle won 4-3 penalites 4 mins...Scone score from free-kick. Low shot that somehow found a way past several players on way to goal. 26 mins...Scone score from penalty sending keeper wrong way. 33 mins...Bens score from low shot 8 yards from goal after scramble for ball. 58 mins...Bens get equalizer thanks to an own goal. 60 mins...Scone have goal disallowed for off-side. 75 mins...Scone score with a great header from corner-kick. 80 mins...Scone number 2 red-carded for head-butting Bens number 3. 82 mins...Bens sub number 14 red-carded for dangerous tackle. 90+2 mins...Bens get late equalizer with header from corner-kick. Full-time. No exta-time played...Scone win penalties. Terrible display from both teams who seemed to prefer tackling each other rather than play football. Game threatened to get out of hand around the 80 minute mark. Referee struggled to control the game from the start. Scone number 10 was best player on the pitch in my opinion...he showed a lot of skill and clever runs...Bens struggled hard to contain him. Overall, i think it's the correct team that goes through to next round.

7.00pm and the Saints game still isnt up on BBC website guess what game is up though! as it says at the top useless fuds

Bars are open in New York. Don't get shot, bye bye, we quite like you......

Yeah - Reason he couldnt make it was his wife took ill.

We've got Killie at home, Dundee Utd away and then Dundee at home coming up too. No reason not to aim for 9 points.

Didn't make it yesterday. Good win though and encouraging that we keep getting results even when we have key players missing. Hope we get Mikey to sign a new contract - even if it's just to get a bigger fee for him in the summer.

I did, in plenty time as well! A joy to watch in that second half after constantly lumping high balls upto Cummins to no avail for the first 40 minutes. moving MOH up with Zippy was a master stroke as they linked up brilliantly. mannus kept us in it first half. Thought the back 4 was good, with Easton outstanding, and Muzz was a rock in CM. Fisher poor first half apart from involvement in the goal, but much improved in the second. MOH and Zippy excellent and great to see Spoony get a goal - he took it very calmly; hope he kicks on from that. Hope you enjoyed it. A real pleasure watching this Saints team right now :)

Michael O'Halloran wont sign a new contract until 2019 this month

Saints won!

Who cares? Seriously who gives a flying **** if they ignore us? I hope they do, we are a crap wee team in a place no one cares about. Lets keep doing what we have been doing and let our results do the talking. I don't think Cosy will let anyone on the BBC forget about us if we jump in to 2nd place and that is seriously possible.

Spelling mistake

2nd place doable this year? We have depth, confidence, a plethora of goals scorers, one of the top managers, one of the top players in MOH and other teams are nothing special. Edit: And of course Exiles Player of the Year, Mannus!

Having problems putting on my posts, do not know why the above post came up. In response to the comments made against Tricky, whether you like it or not Tricky is entitled to put his views on and should be debated accordingly not constantly abused, even aided and abetted by a Mod, this amounts to bullying and should be addressed. Will wait and see what the powers will do.

And again

My worst one v the Arabs at EEP in 1990, I actually made myself ill over that weekend (not alcohol induced either), we should have won that one as we should have beat Motherwell.

The Beloved would be delighted if I could manage that........
