    55saint reacted to Northern saint in Thoughts on Season Ahead?   
    I think it is hard to be positive about the season ahead.  Firstly, there has been no change in the management structure, coaching staff worthy of calling it change.  This team failed to address the numerous deficiencies within the team by continuing to play a system for which they no longer had the personnel to do so.   With so many players out of form, they never changed the team.  No matter how bad the players played, they played the next game.  Hardly inspiring for the rest of the squad. 
    As for the team, I don't expect any further signings.  Two reasons for that.  Why would anyone wish to come to Saints when they will never get a chance to kick a ball for the first team?   (How different to when they saw Saints as an opportunity to progress). The owner is no longer as committed as he once was.   Having seen so much money wasted, he won't wish to lose more to boost the spectators.  
    On the field, I hope Sinclair gets his chance.  I think Mahon is potentially better than McCart.  Holberg was good.  MacPherson may become a defensive midfield player.  I'd like to see Eetu and Bair given an opportunity together.  Wright may give them some ammunition, but I thought he flattered more than delivered.  As for Max, Gilmour, Ballantyne, I hope they get opportunities.  I just doubt it.
    Realistically, it will be the usual suspects played out of position and in the wrong style.  I hope I'm wrong.

    55saint reacted to galalion in Galatasary v Saints, 05/08/21   
    Hello. I live in Turkey and I'm a Galatasaray fan. I read your chat and saw that you were looking for the broadcast of the match. I signed up to help you. If you can't find the broadcast in your language, there are some credible broadcasts (used by almost 70% of Turkish football fans) that are used by those who do not buy Spor Smart and BeinSports in Turkey. There are websites. But these are streams with Turkish comments. I wanted to rank the safest for you. These are some of them;

    https://www.selcuksportshd26.com/    (If you cannot access the site during the match or before the match, type selcuksports on google and click on the results.)(The owners of the site is Fenerbahce supporters. Therefore, if Saint Johnstone scores a goal, he can put an image mocking Galatasaray on the screen.If this bothers you, don't use this site. But it's still the best quality streaming site.)

    http://wvw.viagrars.com/   (name is weird but you know its illegal) (If you cannot access the site during the match or before the match, type Taraftarium on google and click on the results.)

    http://www.kralbozguncu15.net/ (If you cannot access the site during the match or before the match, type kralbozguncu on google and click on the results.)

    https://jokerbettv72.com/   (If you cannot access the site during the match or before the match, type jokerbet on google and click on the results.)

    http://www.dlovatofans.com/ (If you cannot access the site during the match or before the match, type selcuksports on google and click on the results.)

    These sites are completely safe and are used by many Turkish football fans. In fact, they are used so much that we can say that BeinSports, the broadcaster of the Turkish Super League, has declared war on these illegal stream sites.

    Sorry for my bad english. I can say that I used google translate completely while writing these.

    I was in primary 2 at Goodlyburn then but don’t remember getting time off to go and see the queen but have vague memories of the Rannoch road newsagents selling flags.

    Are you talking about keown?
    Nothing against him personally, but him getting selected for the squad v Celtic at the weekend ahead of Gordon must be fairly soul destroying for Liam Gordon.

    55saint reacted to andrew in St Johnstone Disabled Supporters Association   
    While the national group has apparently somewhat lost its way (the recent AGM was more ‘descends into chaos’ than maintaining its focus) the St Johnstone Disabled Supporters Association continues to make good progress.
    When we started four years ago we met every month. Last season we met every two months and this coming season we will be meeting quarterly.
    This is a clear measure of success (if we resolved everything we wouldn’t need a group at all) demonstrated by some of what we have achieved below. We have done our “job” well and our club have responded positively in so many ways.
    Here are some examples:
    Ramp at club shop.
    Servery orders taken from and delivered to seats to remove need to negotiate doors, queues and areas of limited space.
    Allocated spaces for wheelchair season ticket holders.
    Allocated and/or prearranged parking.
    Radar locks on some disabled toilets and all seven disabled toilets have emergency pull cords.
    Non-reflective glass to be installed at ticket office.
    New audio equipment acquired allowing those requiring commentary to sit anywhere in the stadium. Previously there were only some seats with sockets beside them.
    Away bus parking improved at national level - a St Johnstone DSA initiative - no more having to walk up to half a mile on cold and wet winter nights for disabled or elderly folk.
    Seating provided to enable a personal assistant to sit next to the person they accompany, not behind or in front.
    Improved signage around McDiarmid Park.
    Awareness training conducted with staff - an ongoing exercise.
    McDiarmid Park has received positive reviews on Euan’s Guide and other web sites dealing with accessibility.
    The group has had a great insight into the various roles within our club, with guests having included: chairman, manager, Paul Smith, groundsman, physio, club poet, hospital radio, players, ex-players, ticket office staff, police, club chaplain, and more. Our guests are invited to stay for the whole meeting and most of them left with a greater understanding of what it is like to attend football matches as a supporter with a disability.
    We have established excellent working relationships within the club, treating everyone with respect, and have achieved everything without constitution, committee, office bearers or money - our only rule being “no moaning!”
    Our thanks go to the chairman, to Paul Smith and to Bev, the latter being our main club contact and great ally!
    We are grateful to the club for providing an accessible room for us to hold our meetings.
    All of this also benefits the club who could not be accused of failing in their duty to accommodate disabled spectators in accordance with the Equality Act. On the contrary the club can point to all they have done, and continue to do, as proof they are proactively and positively engaging with disabled supporters in keeping with the spirit of the aforementioned legislation.
