john.w got a reaction from chips in Old Perth - Picture Thread
That building to the right of the tram looks awful like the building where Dickens Is, looks like the tram is coming down South Methven St, South St going to the right ,County PL to the left. The women on the right off the picture dresed for pulling heading down King St and to her left you can see another road which I think is Canal Cr. Then on the other side off the street from the wifey on the pull is a woman wie twa kids and that looks like Hospital St starting there just thinking like.

john.w reacted to Wendy Saints in Steve Lomas An Appreciation
Come on Saints fans....here we are the second season in a row where we still have something to play for, and which isn't a relegation dog fight!
Another season where we have competed and with a wee bit luck and less incompetent refereeing we could be really challenging for 2nd spot! (How sad that looks when you actually write it down)
We have a manager who has the team fighting until the final whistle & I for one have enjoyed the majority of the games this season.
We have had the media talking up the likes of Ross County & Inverness Caledonian Thistle and hardly a mention of our own side. Provincial only seems to be important if you aren't Saints.
No matter, we should be used to that by now, however it is even more imperative we get behind our manager, who is still a 'fledgling' learning his trade, but one who seems to be passionate about our town & team. Happy to defend us when injustices are meted out, not afraid to speak out. Lets get behind the team and manager and make the most of our enviable set up!

john.w reacted to Perth-folk-love-to-moan in Lets Get Realistic
I've never posted on this before, tho I often look, and honestly I cringe! We are st.johnstone, a small team in a small city full of small minded people! We have probably the smallest average crowd in the league along with one of , if not the smallest budgets set for a club in the SPL.
I think what we need to realise is this, As a small diddy team, this is as good as it gets!! And I think we should make the most of it , cause how can our chairman back a manager and help keep this team and improve it when we have the piss poor support we have? Why do I see and hear people say- lomas must go, yet we are in line to Finnish above, hearts , hibs, Aberdeen and Dundee utd, all teams who in size and support who are beyond what we could ever imagine? I see anything above 12th as an achievement for our small club, cause like it or not that's what we are!
Does anyone ever think that some of the bile posted on here and constant negativity may actually put fair weather fans off from returning?
We are small in numbers, and instead of increasing, it seems it's decreasing , something that frustrates me!
So come on people of Perthshire, a HUGE derby game awaits on Apri 1st, lets get behind mr lomas and his team from start to Finnish and secure this top 6 spot! And when we get there push them towards EUrope!
This is as good as it gets, we are st Johnstone
Ps see yous all in Div 1 again some time in the future!!

john.w reacted to Strawman in Fans Representative Meeting Tonight
With the exception of Ghostie, I have no idea who is going to the meeting tonight, I only know he s going because he mentioned it when I was chatting to him outside the shop on sat.
The club cannot claim any of these people are fan representatives, they are hand picked from a selection of people that the board happen to know from what I can see.
I hear things like, after discussions with fans they have decided to allow a standing area, well that standing are isnt that far away from where my season ticket is and nobody has ever asked me or the folk around me what we think about it. Discussions with what fans then, I presume just the ones that contacted the club wanting to stand ?
I am yet to be convinced that St Johnstone actually know who the fans who come to watch them are, in the, must be 20 years I ve had a season ticket I don t remember Saints asking me anything.
What qualifies a fans representative ?
If I was looking at Saints fans representatives, I d expect to see a woman, a dad who takes his kids to the games, a young lad/lassie 16/18 all amongst them in order to give it balance.
I might be well wide of the mark but I wouldn't be suprised if all the representatives were middle aged blokes.
As we don t know who these people are though we don t know.

john.w reacted to Saintdunc in Saints V Killie Sat 9Th March 3Pm Kick-Off
So exactly who are these boo boys? We are in the SPL and in the top half ffs I wish Saints had been in the top league for all my years but many have been like a yo-yo! I have seen some pretty bad stuff but never resorted to booing my home town team. F**k off if you aint happy!

john.w reacted to SaintDougie in Saints V Killie Sat 9Th March 3Pm Kick-Off
Who was that utter tit with the "Lomas must go" banner? What do you really mean to achieve with stupid stunts like that? It was like harking back to the 101, I hate McInnes days. Get a grip, its not like we are in a relegation dog fight. We are pushing for Europe for a second season in a row. The first time in our history may I add.
