    Having now watched the highlights of calamity Carson giving away the most ridiculous penalty for Hibs yesterday, while Zach Hemming kept his 15 th clean sheet at the SMISA. There can be no doubts about who has the better keeper. 

    There really was some mental comments online in the summer when he left. 

    It was either here or twitter where someone suggested Carson was the best out of him, Hladky and Alnwick. Bat shit stuff. 

  2. I didn't realise Boyle was on the bench. Surely must have been carrying an injury as the way our defence played tonight he would have had a field day. 

     

    First half was our worst performance of the season. Improved 2nd half, yet another mistake led Hibs in again. Delighted with the point and the resilience of this team. Onto Dundee!

  3. Chris Kerr was also in that group, another promising player who had his career ruined by Tokely.

    Its only now you realise how important the youth system in the 90s was. Fees for guys like Lavety, Gillies, O'Brien/McNamee kept us solvent.

    Not to mention the home grown players in the millennium champions squad like McGarry, Murray etc.

    I really hope Robbo starts to blood a few more in the months to come.

    Shocking season, outstanding strips 😍 The words "Raith Away" still sends shivers down the spine.

     

    We got our karma against Raith in the Millennium Champions season. 6-0 2nd game of the season, Tommy Turner's last minute header at Love Street and coming from 1-0 down to win 2-1 in the last 3 minutes. I thought I was going to have a heart attack at Juniors goal.

    Not to mention they were the cannon fodder for the title game.

    Why bother?

    It won't achieve anything.

    The only time I've booed an ex-player simply for jumping ship was Junior Mendes when he left for Dunfermline. To be fair they guy was broken after about 20 minutes as "mass booing" occurred every time he got the ball. He was that badly affected that he had to be subbed at HT.:lol:

    Yeah I booed Junior. I couldn't believe he left us when he did. 

     

    Booed Alex Bone as well, both when he was playing for us or against us. 

  6. I hate this time of the year, the negativity is always off the charts.

    I can't comment on the new signings as I haven't been to the games, but they seem the type of players that are in our target market.

    I also don't mind the players who have left. If I could I'd have kept Joe but that's it. No concerns about Gallagher or Carson. I still can't get Carson's performance at Fir Park out my head ! 

    We'll beat Forfar on Saturday, get into a good mindset for Hibs and the rollercoaster will start again.

    Mon the fucking saints.

    I don't know AW personally , but he is an "old school" St Mirren fan. I'm afraid that there lies the problem. For decades there has been too much of an "old school " influence on club matters, dating back to (earlier than ?) the 70s and the Todd, Corson reign when Sir AF had saved the club from oblivion and turned it completely round in three years , only for the BOD to fail to turn a blind eye to some misdemeanours that were only for the good of the players and the club. To this day it still seems that the support want to be as successful as possible , but the old-guard , like AW and some notable others want to do it in the old style , small-time , St Mirren way. I'm afraid when we have forward thinking new blood on the board , Fan-ownership and a fantastic CEO ? in Keith Lasley, then things are going to be much different from the past. Seeing AW stand up and berate the board members at the AGM was like stepping into a 70s time capsule , a cringe-fest which should have been nipped in the bud !

    100%. This goes to the guys who forced out the old SMISA board as well. 

    Thankfully, they seemed to have settled down and obviously Devine is away but we all need to move on.

    Wardop will be found out in court.
