NaeAFakeSaint Posted August 24, 2021 Report Share Posted August 24, 2021 I hope you don't mind me creating your match thread for you. I can imagine you're all focused on your game on Thursday, but this is my first game since 11 March 2020, when Obika scored our winner against Hearts, so I'm really looking forward to this. As I said in the other thread, I hope you win on penalties on Thursday! It's always good to see Scottish sides do well in Europe, that includes the Old Firm. I think your performance on Sunday will be heavily influenced by the result on Thursday, and whether it goes into extra-time or not. So I will reserve my predictions for now. Come on the real Saints (the ones from Paisley!)! blueheaven, Johnny B and Abernethy Saint 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintJet Posted August 24, 2021 Report Share Posted August 24, 2021 I don't think guests of away fans should be starting our match threads; I have a pretty succesful track record for starting match threads so will start one for this game and the mods can merge it if they see fit.

SaintJet Posted August 24, 2021 Report Share Posted August 24, 2021 I'm surprised St.Mirren have started so poorly with all their new signings, I think they'll come good at some point but hopefully not this week and we'll be boosted by a our entry in to the conference league. The team will take care of itself after Thursday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, I know the history - Perth was called St. John's Town or something - but there's no saint by that name. There is a Saint Mirren (also spelled Mirin). So we're the originals and you're the fakes.

To be fair, I did rub my hands together with glee as I considered the title! However I thought it would be a bit wide to come on your forum and take the piss, so I followed the established format.

Rob Posted August 24, 2021 Report Share Posted August 24, 2021 (edited) No away support at this game apparently. Red zone or something and cant accomodate our massive support now. Before Im told to wash my mouth it, maybe we should drop the St from our name if we are going to be playing all of these European games, they all seem to want to just call us Johnstone, even the abbreviation on the telly last week.

R.B.B:- Adz Posted August 24, 2021 Report Share Posted August 24, 2021 Hoping for a better performance and result with a couple of key players coming back in and the squad given a boost with Eetu hopefully on the bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That red zone must be huge if there isn't room in the rest of the stadium for a few hundred Saints fans. They must think no away fans gives them an advantage.

Aye, it's a shambles from us. I think this is a terrible decision - away fans help create an atmosphere, plus we could easily accommodate you. Plus it's understandable why some Perth Saints might have bought tickets: The above was part of a statement which was later edited, apparently. Plus our site was, and probably still is, labelling the North Stand as being for away fans. Aye, just checked - it still is: https://www.stmirren.com/matchtickets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 I think its a game where we have to give it a real good go. Both teams should fancy the points. The more efforts on goal the better. Id rather see Saints put balls past the post, deflected for corners or even force their keeper to make saves rather than skirt round the box waiting for the perfect moment to never come. I think this team are a little guilty of getting the ball at the D and playing it out wide again. NaeAFakeSaint 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this team are a little guilty of getting the ball at the D and playing it out wide again. We're guilty of that, too. I'd prefer us to run at defenders and also be willing to shoot from outside the box, but like you we tend to faff about with the ball. We've lost at home to Hearts and got hammered at Celtic Park. Our solitary point came away at Dundee, who haven't looked great themselves. I really hope you have a hangover from Thursday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
