They really only need 1 stand there anyway for the amount of fans they get.

I would never have guessed a Dundee fan would have come up with such a witty reply. I think their average home attendance isn't too bad, actually.

f**k right off.

That is all

I guess Dundee fans will just need to fill the other end of the ground then

What were you expecting when you brought this to our attention?

Dundee fans don't fill any ends on their travels.

And they don't give a shite about St Johnstone apparently, so why would it be any different?

We fill the away stand at McDiarmid no problem at all, and we also take over a large amount of their main stand as well.

So you DO care. Awh, like we didn't all know that anyway.

It wouldn't be such a loss tbh, attendances are dropping all the time anyway. If the council are willing to pay the Saints for the priviledge then take as much as you can get.

Now this has pissed me right off

First the appointment of mcinnes last season considering the supposed "large amount of applicants" and now this.

As if i wasnt confident enough about us just now

How Fooking close is the new road going to be to the pitch?

Also would'nt be too keen on being a ball boy at Mcdiarmid it'l be like a scene from dodgeball when there crossing the busy motorway...

"If you can dodge cars you can dodge anything"....

OH FFS, is this going to go down a similar route to the Sturrock thread?

It's your fault that Dundee fans are idiots.

St Johnstone are a diddy club. I wouldn't be seen in a three sided stadium.

But...but yours is three-sided.

/pretend-whoosh

Serious question. Do Saintees think Geoff Brown wants to;
a - get a wedge of capital in for Saints,
b - help out P&K Council's traffic problems,
c - hand the council a solution to a traffic problem that's stopping the council giving planning permission for housing developments to the west of Perth?

Is Brown speaking as owner of GS Brown Construction or Saints chairman?

as I am angry about this i susspect the former total disgrace

Why would it?

Hopefully the cardboard cutouts wont be to upset when we take over the other stand. We might have to flatten them

We dont have that bad an away support. We pretty much filled the away end at ross county this season

That was the first game of the season to be fair. Everyone's away support goes up slightly at the first game.

It's odd that Dundee have the best home support, but a fairly low percentage of that travel to away games, compared to other sides variance with home and away support.

I guess they just can't bear to leave Dundee, even for a few hours.

This is my favourite myth regarding saints. We've not had cardboard cut outs for years, as you should know from your bi-annual trek to Perth.

This makes sense and has been in the pipeline for a good while now anyway. We don't need all the stands really so I'm quite happy for this happen.

nizzy has a strange fascination with st johnstone also..

closet fan ?

If the road will be that close to the pitch - will a lollipop lady be required for run-ups at corners?

This is an absolute disgrace.



I’ve stuck by saints through a lot of shite, be it crappy manager appointments or the huge hike in ticket prices, defended Geoff brown when he has refused to dip in his pocket, but this is the last straw.



As one of few lower league clubs to make profit, it’s not like we really need the money to function.



If he is serious about getting promoted then this does not make any sense. As this is space that would most probably be needed for away supports.



Brown needs to get a grip and think about the clubs interests instead of his monetary assets.

I think you'll find the line is ''If you can dodge traffic you can dodge a ball''

Just fucking stupid.

As has been said an WAP, to remove the NORTH stand would surely leave the ground wide open to the howling and superchilled north winds.

Maybe though it,s part of a grander plan to get the most cash out of the stadium.Next we will be selling space on our floodlights for mobile phone dishes,renting out the pitch closed season to a local farmer so he can grow some corn,leasing space on the roof for solar panels!!!!!!actually these are not bad ideas??????

Just fucking stupid.

I doubt this will go ahead.

I'm only really concerned about having nothing at one end, a small terrace (like at Ross County) that can convert to seats when promoted would be ideal.

If it means less OF fans then all the better.

I'd also guess it'd mean more all-ticket games if we got promoted, possible even Dundee games but the current 2,500 away capacity is normally fine.. There have been a few occasions when away fans have over filled their end & it would not be possible with only 3 stands to accommodate them..

To be fair was a still a good support all the way up to dingwall. It didnt go up just slightly either.
I think we have one of the biggest away support in this league, maybe im just being biased here.

So your last line is alot of sh#t.

This won't happen.

Why?

Because I say so.

Best away support in the league = Dundee FC.

Maybe if Brown would enter the real world and charge reasonable prices they would'nt be looking to do this, until then i an many others won't be back.

Will... not.... bite.... AARGH!

Watching the news on ITV tonight and Brown himself getting interviewed I would say this is most definetly going ahead. If this is to be the case then it is an absolute embarrassment, St Johnstone were given this land for free and now they are selling off parts of it so Mr Brown can make a nice tidy profit.

I'm sorry, are you under the impression that anyone at McDiarmid Park actually gives two flying fooks?

Plenty more where you came from. Well actually, there's not. You bring a shit away support anyway.

CAPITALism.

And there in a nutshell is why St J are and always will be the ultimate diddy team in Scottish football. Remind me again what you have won? Oh that's right fcuk all! 100+ years of diddyness, heres to the next 100.

Are you talking to moi?

We've won the right to label Clyde as "shite".

Why not just knock the whole lot down, move you diddies to one of the pitches at the inch.
That way Perth gets its nice new road and also Geoff Brown gets a nice new plot to build heaps of his shitty houses on.

You make a very good point. Bruce McDiarmid gave the land for a football stadium, one wonders if he would approve of this. I suspect not. I wonder if there was anything in the agreement along the lines of that the land must only ever be used for a football stadium and related activities?

MMmm thats a tough one Rumps...........can i get back to you on that one

Silvery, answering the question 'what is your name?' would no doubt prove to be a challenge for you.

Take all the time in the world.

another one of big Geoff wonderful ideas, so much for the chairman that loves the club using it as leverage in his big businesses deals. when are we going to figure out that he really is a twat. i also wonder if admission prices will go up again, due to the smaller capacity of the stadium once this happens, i think yes.

more arrogance

More to the point Saints will lose out as they wont be able to stuff in so many holy rollers on there Perth pilgrimage

Bitch

Really? When were the awards and where did Thisle come?

Arrogant bitch to you.

Thats fine then...So I take it you are happy with this 'caring/sharing property tycoon' selling off large chunks of your stadium? what a fucking joke of a club you lot really are.
