When the announcement was made earlier in the week by County, I spoke to Saints ticket office and they confirmed that they had spoken to County (who apparently hadn't told them about the change) and that the free ticket offer applies and that tickets can be bought at the away ticket kiosk at the ground tonight.
If that is not the case, there will be 3 very p***** off Saints fans.

I can confirm that this was said at  a recent outing. Given he has signed almost 30 players in the last year, it is staggering that within that number he has not signed players who can adapt to playing  a 4-4-2.

Hearing McGowan was signing made me feel physically sick. What a complete and utter waste of money. Also how out of touch is the reviewer on the BBC if he thinks we have signed well. No goalkeeper and no striker.If it wasn't so serious it would be laughable. 

Can I say not only were the young team superb again last night but overall it was great that the majority of the support stuck with the team and really try to lift them in the last 15. Scenes at the end with fans and players was really good to see and it certainly seemed to mean something to a lot of the players.
Fair play to Hendry for helping with that too. He was really trying to gee the fans up in the second half. It would have been all too easy for him to come back and to an extent sulk but he has done the exact opposite and shown a superb fighting attitude that all the players need to emulate.
Still not confident about staying up but so much about last night was a huge improvement and if we continue with that spirit we will at least give ourselves a chance.

I think this transfer window is shaping up to be a real mess (again). Clear before the start of the transfer window that midfield was the main area requiring attention and it would seem that we have now known for weeks that Bryson is carrying a serious injury and he is now out for weeks. Despite that, we go into our first game after the break with virtually the same midfield bar the return on loan of 2 relatively inexperienced players. 
Throw into the mix that our star striker acquisition has still to get international clearance then it seems almost certain that apart from Cleary, our starting 11 at Tynecastle tomorrow will be almost unchanged from the lines up that were brutal before Christmas. So much for starting back from the break with any degree of optimism. Can't see this as being anything other than another farcical end to the transfer window where we most likely sell Clark and are easily 7 or 8 points adrift of other teams currently around us and out of the Cup.
 I do hope I am wrong but I don't have a good feeling and In Scott Boyd and the Chairman I have zero faith.

6Thanks  to all the players today. Can't tell you how proud I feel  in the words of Spoony  its f***** incredible. Can't believe how quiiet Perth is tonight. Our momentous night ever. Thanks Nicoliar.

Sadly in the same category as Dave Mc. Both Mum and Dad who were at the 2014 Cup Final have passed on. Have a cracking photo of them at Celtic Park with my Dad's arms round Mum beaming proudly.
I blame my dad for the infliction with Saints but no doubt he and Mum will be cheering them on in any way they can. It will be just as well the ref won't be able to hear Mum!

Sorry don't agree re Tanser. OK going forward, can put in a decent cross and wins his share of headers  but far too weak defensively. Still allows too many crosses in to the box from out wide and a classic example of his weakness on Saturday for the Motherwell goal. Tanser goes to ground with a pretty pathetic effort on O'Hara and makes little if no impact in trying to stop him. Compare that to the tackles both McCann and MacNamara put in on the second half when Motherwell had counter attacks.. Yes they got bookings but stopped real danger. Tanser should have wiped O'Hara out on Saturday and taken the yellow card. That unfortunately is a major failing in his game at this level as he is simply too nice and brushed of the ball too easily.

Pretty certain you will find Kirsten Robertson's pawprints are all over this!

Fandabidozi.. Interesting to see that she bottled pulling the Ugly Sisters match on Sunday!

Thoroughly deserved win today with some fantastic performances from Spoony, McCann, Muzz and Kerr. Seeing the celebrations at the 3rd goal and the end showed it meant a lot to most of the players. Only downside was Duffy who basically again gave away the goals and again looked out of his depth. Straight through middle at first and totally stupid free kick to give away at the second. Dread to think what Ikpeazu will do against him on Wednesday. Personally would bring in Madis for that one.  Still shouldn't grumble too much and let's celebrate a couple of  great finishes and enjoy the evening. Upwards and onwards. Let's now get off the bottom of the league. 
 
 
 

I have kept quiet over this Summer's debacle until now but the bottom line is that I have had a season ticket now for over 30 years and like the Chairman I can't be arsed. Given the absolute shambles of this transfer window and the Chairman clearly not giving a toss, I am seriously considering not using my season ticket as I have no stomach to watch absolute pish on the pitch week after week. I have gone home and away to the bottom of the second division with St Johnstone and enjoyed the climb backup despite the various relegations in between but since the cup win my enthusiasm has waned under Steve Brown's woeful stewardship. I wouldn't mind the inevitable relegation  if we actually gave ourselves a fighting chance and would continue to support the team but for now I have more enthusiasm for weeding the garden than I do going to a Saints game.
For those supporters that do continue to stick by them well done but I for one have had enough.
As for giving up a Thursday night to attend something like this, you must be joking. I will be giving it a wide body swerve as I see absolutely no point in attending and suspect many others will too. I doubt if 20 people will turn up on the night. When that happens you can then hear the moans from the Chairman of why bother when no one will even bother turning up to an open forum. Still he's bomb proof!

Not quite the full story re Ferguson. When he was bleating to the Press how Saints had supposedly shafted him, he never once mentioned that he had knocked back the contract on offer before he got injured as he wanted more money. Ferguson is a player that I totally despise. If he hadn't been so greedy he would have had a signed contract to fall back on.
