FAIR CITY FIRM

I agree.
the hypocrisy of players waving anti racism cards before the game is not lost on me either.the whole afternoon the Celtic support kept up their religious and political chants.
as usual it will be ignored and swept under the carpet.the disgusting shame of Scotland.

Too heavy and tends to hide when the going  gets tough.also known to shout his mouth off too much so will be a red card specialist.
 

Devastating news.  Jon and I disagreed about everything, but always with a smile and a joke.  Kindest regards to his family and friends.
 
RIP

Just found a photo of John and myself with the Greek Saintee (owned the bar) outside Johns local in Athens. Great memory!

Met John over 15 years ago, in London, and Perth, and Athens nearly came off too.
And you know I was thinking about him, might have been yesterday. Cos I've not been on here as much, and with recent posts I'd thought, "John's not chipped in", now this. Gutted.
Just so so sorry to read this, I'll really miss him on here. ****. This sucks.
Joss - I'm sorry mate. My Dad is the other side of the world, and I dread this sort of news coming in.  Thanks for posting the photo, it's one for the ages now. Sending you love.
John - RIP ...... you made this place ...SHINE BRIGHT <3
 
 

Very sad news indeed, we had some laughs growing up and some great days out watching Saints, treasured memories I won’t forget .
RIP John 
 
 

Hi everyone.
Found out the news about my dad on Friday. It was very sudden but as none of his family were in Panama at the time details are few and far between at the minute. Expecting a call from the Embassy in the next couple of days and will know more then.
He was a great Dad and loved nothing more than telling me on a Saturday morning who he’d been winding up on WAP over the last few days and who he was beating in the predictor!
Being away from Perth for many years meant this place gave him an outlet for all things St Johnstone and enabled him to have debates and conversations, which many of us get in the pub on a Saturday afternoon, with all of you.
Thanks to anyone who berated him, nibbled at his bait or rised to him any time he put up a nonsense post as he thrived on it and, while he often came across as abrasive on here, it was always in jest with a tongue firmly in cheek and his way of still being involved with saints from a far.
My brother Saul and I (Joss) would like to pass on our thanks to everyone for their kind words and for humouring him over the past few years 

R.I.P captain

R.I.P captain

Great player and he gave us Alloa away , rip, 

Why is it a lack of respect exactly. Did you see him out there today. He was lost. It's gone. We are a rudderless ship and he's the Captain. We have run aground. I will always be in his debt and the players who gave us the greatest day in our saints supporting lives but times change. Even if he did walk or was pushed, I don't think any of us will ever be anything less than supremely greatful and thankful. same goes with Macca, Ando and the rest but difficult decisions will have to be made. The very loyalty that is gonna cost TW his job ( sticking with players  when he should have either dropped or moved on) is what you seem to be demanding. TW came out and said himself that the time for loyalty was over ( sadly he failed after one game to stick to his word)..  The  Captain of the Titanic was the best captain they ever had but he still lost his ship.

****ing hate that song.
Sums up saints though when fans regard such an old fuddy duddy pish song as that as one of theirs.

Things look bleak.
Dundee look a good side on occasion, and have got very  little for the football they have played...but there appears to be enough about them to pull through.
The county result at Dens last week was ominous for the rest, a talented charismatic manager with a clutch of new players they too have something to work with.
This leaves Hamilton and Thistle.  Hamilton are built to scrap for points, and do, thistle and saints can't seem to get out of the bit.  Although thistle have managed to get off the bottom and are slowly building a reasonable home record since xmas.
A couple of wins would certainly ease the situation, as someone pointed out saints now face a run of top six fixtures, in a way, this suits saints, their best performances under TW are always against teams who press them and attack.   Tommy desperately needs a result, I hope he gets a few, and has the opportunity to rebuild the squad over the summer...he deserves that much.

I personally do not understand what point you are making here. They come with their own identity but others have encouraged them to the point of their own banning ? I don't get this. St Johnstone have always had a naughty support but only the Fair City Unity have been treated this way. It is absolutely shocking.

It may not affect your enjoyment of it, but it affects mine. I think the FCU are a massive loss. Don't underestimate the power of creativity on and off the park. They were getting alot of young people interested in coming to the stadium cause they were taking positive energy and turning it into something. That being said I have been finding it hard to find a seat in times of late due to all the young families that have turned up for the welcoming atmosphere. Thank god there is a direct road to the crematorium now.

all 16 were perth laddies

BBC:
St Johnstone's best chance of the match so far. Steven MacLean turns and shoots inside the six-yard-box, but Zander Clark does well to knock wide and St Johnstone win another corner.
 
We've got no ****ing chance if our own keeper is batting away our shots on goal ....

I'm lost

Him giving the thumbs up when the crowd sang about him "hating the ****" probably rules that move out

You're not a six year old child who's spent his entire life with a serious illness, are you? 
I agree btw that is gone too far, but this situation, where we're actually playing the team he supported, deserves an applause 

Sometimes it better to say nothing at all, m8. 

This thread is massively disrespectful to our greatest ever manager.  Tommy will be the first to admit he isn't perfect and he got things wrong against Trakai, but the stuff on this forum is very poor to say the least.
