Totally agree (and would add, why is it a bad thing to be a younger fan?).

It feels very unique to Saints that there's a section of the support who seem to constantly want to argue against any attempt to show ambition, and seem to be of the view that if things aren't as bad as they were in the 80s, then by default it means everything's fine and we should change nothing. Any suggestion that we could and should be doing better is met with "be careful what you wish for" or implying that we're a small club so should know our place.

It goes hand in hand with the bizarre view that there are certain clubs (weirdly including Hibs) who we couldn't possibly hope to compete with, and who are more or less guaranteed to be in the top 6, so it's unrealistic to expect Saints to target being at that level. This is despite the fact that we've regularly finished above many of those clubs for years now, and even this season we've seen Killie, St Mirren and Dundee occupy top 6 places at the expense of some of those clubs for most of the season.

Killie , St Mirren and Dundee all made good signings in the summer and January whilst we were fishing in different ponds but mainly they have decent managers.
