Wait until they see he might not even be No.1.
They will see he has been given No 1 shirt (Not confirmed but pretty obvious
And will be oblivious to the fact that he is not sole No1 and fighting with Sinclair for the spot
Because the manager has stated he wants two No 1s

Trying to think of how we will line up game one v Hearts.
This is what I have at the moment:
Sinclair
Brown Gordon Considine Gallagher
Wright McGowan Phillips Carey
Macpherson
May
I don't like the idea of Cammy being further up but, at the same time, it shows the difference in our team when we get some quality back. This has not factored any new signings so will hopefully rejig it a little.
"Can you feel the love in the room?" - Darius
So many holes in this selection
Why do you think we will have no new players by August
Why are you dropping the likes of Ballatyne and not considering wee Max
No idea how you can see this team in August when this is early July

DONT PANIC!!! etc., but its fairly disappointing to see Deas, Allardice, and Tiffoney, move on to similar clubs in the top flight. If Charlie Fox/Kyle Turner also follow this routine then thats 5 players who fit a great profile of signing for us moved to clubs we should be competing with for players.
Have it on good authority that Dundee are paying Tiffoney 3+grand

Disappointed Alloa will be away, missing the chance to see Scougall grace the McDiarmid Park pitch again.
Ballantynes the one im most on the fence about. He done okay coming in but very kuch got the benefit of circumstance giving him a lot of leeway. Id worry we wont see much goals/assists from him.
Max needs a chance at least, but again, probably wont be contributing anything tangible.
Ferguson has a huge leap to make, from L2 and physically, so cant see him being a huge player this season and probably off to the Championship for a loan.
Beyond that is there actually any other youngsters to bring in?
Personally I hope cammy gets a chance to shine and hold down a regular position
I think we still need one or 2 midfielders to come in
Don't think wee max will break through next season,will probably be given league cup games and loaned our again
Another season on loan at decent level probably best for his development

Rudden will be delighted with that news.
Spoke to him last night along with several other players
He says he loves it here and had been made to feel wanted at Saints
I asked he if he would stay permanently
His answer was f**k aye but I've got 2 years left on my contract with them
Spoke to Macca as well
I said to him that I thought one more win would do
His reply was No No I want 5 wins because he is a born winner and desperate for the job permanently
He also said Callum was scared of losing and it reflected in his set up
Obviously none of the players are going to rip Callum but the ones I spoke to like Carey Brown And Nicky Clark are loving it now under Macca
Talking about Clark he wouldn't give an exact time frame but said he would definitely be back before end of season
Spoony going for a scan on ankle knock this week
Dan Phillips along with Alex Mitchel are sound guys Philips is built like a brick shit house

These clowns are an embarrassment to our club.
Is it the Men (kiss) in Black we're talking about here or another mob?
ThenA wee group going out of Muirton had my home made Saints Tartan bunnet which had been in my jacket pocket
I noticed on way out as I went to put it One of them was tossing it in air and when I asked for it one of them wanted me to prove it was mine
Fortunately one older guy on group ssud just give the auld guy his bunnet back
Also did damage to Saints memorabilia in the Cally in town and sneaked out... feckin cowards

How close would you rate the home game v Gretna?
Must win game, take an early lead. Gretna equalise in the last 10 minutes only for Saints to score the winner a few minutes later.
No comparison in my opinion

Theres your base set up with Considine out IMO.
Pick 1 from Murphy, Wotherspoon, McLennan for the left hand slot.
Pick 1 from Hallberg, Murphy, Wotherspoon, Carey, Rudden for the spot either beside May or just behind him.
Try and push high and press a Kilmarnock side lacking pace.
What we'll get is
Matthews
Wright - Mitchell - Gordon - Brown - Montgomery
Phillips - MacPherson
Carey - May - McLennan
Philips is still banned so that won't be it

Our away form hasnt even been great either.
2-1 v Well - Required a 94th scabby winner after chucking away a comfortable lead by sitting deep for no reason
0-4 v Rangers - Humped
2-3 v Hearts - Carey scores after the keeper passes to him and gives him an open goal. Hearts then lose 3 players to injuries and the game with 27 shots.
2-1 v Utd - Well earned win against a side recovering from the 9-0 Celtic game and having just sacked their manager
1-2 v Killie - Didnt get near them and only scored due to a last minute scramble
0-1 v Livi - Sure it was fairly even but we looked toothless throughout
2-1 v Hibs - Losing until they go down to 10, and rely on a marginal offside call ruling out a Hibs 2nd. Porteous then chucks 2 goals in.
2-2 v St Mirren - Red card leaves us down to 10 early, so hard to judge. Relied on 96th equaliser from nothing.
2-1 v County - Losing until they go down to 10. Crawford scores twice in final 15 mins as we chuck about 8 attackers on the park.
0-2 v Dons - Sat back against one of the worst sides in the division form wise and got routinely beaten without getting near them.
0-2 v Rangers - Referee a total farce
2-0 v Motherwell - Absolutely battered a team devoid of confidence but allowed them to come back into the game by sitting deep.
2-1 v United - Absolutely battered a team devoid of confidence but allowed them to come back into the game by sitting deep. Relied on one of the worst goalkeeping mistakes youll ever see to win it.
So aye. 6 of our away points v Utd who look destined for 12, 6 against Well who were looking destined for relegation both times we played them, and 6pts against Hibs/County, we were losing both before they had men sent off. Our away points total is impressive but even a quick deeper look at the games doesnt exactly suggest some incredible tactical performance beyond playing Motherwell, United, or 10 men.

That was explained
The Club are keen to have several Dinner type functions but because The concert hall and Dewars don't now have internet catering you have to supply everything yourself right down to cutlery
The concert Hall want 7,000 for an empty shell.
Having a Marquis type thing on Astro was mentioned
And the COVID years made it well on impossible
I know you won't agree but so be it

My particular highlight of the minutes is the explanation of why there wasn't a cup double celebration.
Outside catering and needing to hire someplace? Embarrassing.

Wasn't at the meeting so can't possibly pass comment but "why does the scoreboard say Saints rather than the full name"
"Why aren't all the seats blue?"

It’s really good news. Really pleased Stevie is staying with us.
it’s only a 2 year extension though, it reflects more on me that it’s grating on me that it’s been announced that way.
Am I missing something? Twitter and website both say 2.5
