auld reekie saint reacted to blueheaven in Hearts V Saints. Sunday 2 August 12.30 K-O.
...and yet those they screwed over remain out of pocket... while Hearts get lauded for a new business model which essentially involves once again attempting to buy success.
Fair enough, they have to get on with things and attempt to be ambitious once again - but I find the whole idea of St Johnstone making a public display of "respect" towards their so-called achievement to be massively distasteful. What real achievement is involved in ditching your financial responsibilities and then suddenly being able to plough money into signing better footballers than the teams around you?

I note we have agreed to give Hearts a guard of honour on Sunday.
Utter nonsense. They should be giving us a guard of honour for being the first club in Scotland to help them out financially when they were in dire straits.
Not buying into this whole fear factor surrounding Hearts. Hope we get wired right into them from the first minute, give some of their new signings a rough introduction to Scottish football.

auld reekie saint reacted to PauloPerth in Player contracts and transfers
I can't imagine our wage bill is any higher than last season though. Since just after the start of last season, the following players are no longer at Saints: James McFadden, Brian Graham, Lee Croft, Adam Morgan, Gary MacDonald, Gary Miller
And we've brought in Joe Shaughnessy, Brad Mackay, John Sutton, Graham Cummins, Liam Craig. (Just talking about first team squad).
Our average crowds were up 20% last season from 2013-14 so surely we can't be that hard up. As you say, the only thing missing is pace/ creativity and it would still be great to bring in that final missing piece of the jigsaw in the next few weeks.

auld reekie saint reacted to mainstand in Living Wage
I think you will find it is the SNP living wage in Scotland. They introduced it first.

auld reekie saint reacted to Honest Saints Fan in Living Wage
The living wage is nothing to do with politics and everything to do with employers doing the right thing and paying their staff enough to live on.

auld reekie saint reacted to PauloPerth in Thanks Saints
Heard it all last season as well when we were bottom 2 in October... Finished 4th and qualified for Europe. There's no doubt we won't stay top 6 forever, but no reason to write us off yet.

auld reekie saint reacted to Greylag in Europa League 2015/16
UEFA really need to take a look at themselves. These early rounds should be as regionalised as possible. UK / Faroes / Ireland / Iceland seems like a reasonable region. Armenia! Stuck between war zones and fruit loops! You'd need to take a week off and use a month's wages just to get there and back. Ridiculous.

Why so negative about a game not even half done?
Saints could claw this back for a draw and be fine, Hamilton could tie or lose, who knows.
I'd never underestimate these lads and wright. COYS!
And if we get a humping, so what, we bounce back next week

If anybody should have been facing criticism for the QoS game then it should have been the management team. Not a player chucked into the deep end after only signing hours before.

auld reekie saint got a reaction from Cagerf in Celtic V St Johnstone. Wednesday 4Th March 2015
With the recent history in the east end of Glasgow would it not be appropriate to remove the Jock Stein statue from it's plinth and replace it with Tommy Wright ?
Seems pretty reasonable to me ?

When you compare it to our win there in the late 90s Mannus was in a deck chair with a cigar in comparison to what Main dealt with.

Good to see you're prepared for the 10 minutes of additional time that inevitably comes with Celtic being behind at home.

One of these days, David Wotherspoon is going to score one of the best goals any of us has ever seen.
