  1. This may well be off topic and if so I apologise but it should be remembered our worst performances in the last 5 years have all been under Del Especially Motherwell semi!!!
  2. It is only going to be for 2 games this season hopefully if it means more money for the club then I am all for it. I would like to have every game pay at the gate. I remember cup finals and internationals when you could just walk up and pay.I may be wrong but I think there was only ever 1 all-ticket game at Muirton(Saints v the now defunct Rangers 3-3)even semis played at Muirton were not all ticket.
  3. Steven is aa Peebles boy and the attitude round the pubs here is very positve (even though they are all **** jambos hibees or ****) this is from people who have known him all his life even pre rangers when he was just a kid. Did Del not try to sign him a couple of years ago? Decent signing in my opinion but now we have to use all these decent signings properly!!!!!
  4. In the early eighties Saints did a preseason in the Borders. As they were staying in the hotel I was working in at the time I met up with some of them. I was on holiday for the week after they left and got a lift to Perth on the team bus. Frank Christie and Alex Rennie were great guys. I was invited into the players card school but as i was pretty skint declined the offer
  5. I think we did it against rangers once both replacements appeared on one of these "Top 10 best" videos the sun used to produce at christmas (early 90s Ithink)
  6. were peter thomson not the wholesale booze company they had a warehouse at the corner of graybank road and gray street?
  7. I seem to remember leaving Muirton after his first home game (stranraer put us out of the Scottish cup after a replay) and the crowd were suggesting his parents had never married!!!!
  8. I really dont know where I stand on the Lomas issue. It should be rmemembered that it is only a few weeks ago we are all raving about the Euro games ( I posted on another thread about the home game saying that we should all remember what a great time we can haqve following Saints). But obviously things arehappenning in Perth which us exiles are unaware of (a wee PM anyone?).As has also been mentioned on another thread we have had a bitch of a run of 13 games. Yes Aberdeen at McD was crap but the other games this season we have been very unlucky. Even last seson after the split we didn't play badly at all even though the results were crap ( even the 5-1 against the arabs wasn't as bad as it appears).Yes we need to improve but is this the time to change managers I dont think so. I believe if we have at least 7 points at the end of September(Ipersonally think we will have a lot more)we'll be doing alright. Anyway onwards and upwards COYS I've predicted 3-0 0n saturday against the Arabs
  9. It is the typical west of Scotland humour that BBC seem to think that the whole of Scotland likes. Not without its funny moments but certainly not laugh a minute.
  10. 6-1 away at falkirk JB scored 5
  11. I remember league cup game at Tynie early 90's 2-0 down came back to win 4-2 (Raith beat us in the next round then went on to win it) also semi win against Hearts was braw
  12. Celtic Saints Dundee Utd Hearts Motherwell Aberdeen ICT Ross County St Mirren Kilmarnock Dundee Hibs
  13. I cant remember the mart at Riggs Rd but do remember the one in Craigie (Hays Mart)I lived just the other side of West End Bowling Green. Some of the staff were right grumpy barstewards if I remember. Used to be great fun walking through the mart on market days and watching all the drunken farmers staggering to thier cars (what was drunk driving in those days?!!!!)
  14. The one of Dewars: what are the buildings where Riggs Rd is now?
  15. hearts 1- 3 saints Murray D 15351
