St Johnstone desperate to cash in on the maroon pound yet again. Such a shan wee club.

[The Marly]

Shan wee club who donated money to your shower to help stop them going bust [emoji16]

[Elixir]

Only fair given the maroon pound leaching over the years, tbqh.

[Widge]

f**k it, why not! [emoji23][emoji23]

You sound like a *** without the bus fare tbqh.

Any idea if there will be enough tickets available so that Tam can get one?

[The Real Saints]

I might be heading along to this one, but I don't know if it will be easy to obtain a guaranteed brief.

[Radford]

The Jambos relying on the swelled masses from Perth to save their club again with those prices.

Not greedy so would be delighted with a win from either the league or cup game.

I take it we're getting the full Stand behind the goal for this then?  Not sure we'll bring the full 3000 to be honest...

[Heart of Northern]

Took up the £75 hospitality option. Not a bad deal.
My Dad, my best mate and his brother.
I'm 50 and my dad used to take us to Tynie when we were about 8..
First time he'll see the new stand etc
So givin all that we'll probably get papped out!

Samesies. A bit annoying that it starts an hour later, but I merely see it as a challenge.

There's a word I hope never to see again!

[Crùbag]

Am in two minds about this after Saturday's drab and dreich affair.

Only the magic of the Scottish Cup may tempt me.

Heart of Midlothian TBC v 0 St Johnstone. I’ll update at full time.

[PauloPerth]

For Saints I'd go this team. Shaughnessy RB means even if Hearts stifle any creativity we have, we will have a threat from the long throw-In on a tight park. Gordon, Anderson, Kerr, Davidson and Johnstone can all hopefully bring an aerial threat, and give a bit of presence at the back to nullify the Hearts long ball game.  Gordon is also a talker and we need leaders out there.

Foster only ahead of Comrie as he's possibly more comfortable on the left, but I'm equally happy for Comrie to start. 

Whatever we think of Craig Levein, he's all about getting results. His team's have always pulled jerseys, dived, talked to refs, try to get folk sent off and do whatever it takes to get a win.  We have to match that, and go beyond this weekend. We have to bite, kick, scratch, surround the ref and appeal for everything, and do whatever it takes to get a win.  Dive for a penalty, punch the ball in with a hand.. whatever it takes to get through.

A win here would be a massive boost, and something to build confidence for the rest of the season. I've dropped Tanser and Alston because I don't think they're prepared to roll their sleeves up and tear a heart right out of the chest of one of these Edinburgh muppets, and we have no time for passengers right now.

Hopefully a big Saints support, let's get right behind the team.

Oh, and finally, f**k Hearts. 

Thanks

(Paton cheering us on from behind the goal, obviously)

This going to be on Alba or that?

[Radford]

Shocking lack of Scougall in the team above...

I don't know the best approach for this one. Team certainly doesn't pick itself. Do hope Mannus continues in goal though.

Win would be a huge boost.
