  1. Don't care about Burns and don't care for his poetry. I do however enjoy this occasion and like to treat it as a night of being 'traditionally Scottish' so to speak. Therefore, I will enjoy my haggis neeps and tatties. Also going to make cranchan and have a couple drams of Dalmore 15.

  2. What a miserable spectacle that was from a Saints perspective. Airdrie throughly deserving of their win, we offered next to nothing. So so bad. The only positive today was ticking off the Excelsior. Shame about the catering situation which was an embarrassing shambles. Cash only except one card reader at the kiosk, queued up only to be told 2 minutes later it was a cash only queue so had to change. Then there was no hot food left. Airdrie completely unprepared for a moderately large support today, very disappointing as I was choking for a pie.

    Just under 900 Saints tickets sold 

    Excellent stuff, hopefully some more sales today to take us to the magical 1k. I got my ticket this morning. Going on my own. Think this is the first time ever I’ll be going to a Saints game alone 🥲 

    Airdrie fans, is there parking outside stadium? 

  4. This will either be the moment Callum revives his managerial career or it will be a disaster for QP like it was with us in the end. 

    I think if you asked the majority of saints fans about him they would tell you that Davidson will forever be considered a legend for what he did and is forever written into club folklore. What came after the double however was an omnishambles of the highest degree which crippled the club and left a sour taste in everybody’s mouths. It’s not a case of being ‘ungrateful’ for what he achieved. Nobody wanted things to the end the way they did.

    QP fans might want to read the St Johnstone thread around the time when he was sacked, it might give you an insight into how folk felt. He had to go.

    All that said I wish him well at QP.

    In Europe, farmers have started using livestock protection dogs where wolves have been reintroduced. We can look forward to the underclass aspiring to one of these darlings. Turkish Kangal can take bites out of wolves.

    Livestock guardian dogs have been used by people since the Roman Empire. Some farmers have recently been trialing them in Scotland.

    Volunteer drives hundreds of miles to rehome bully XLs in Scotland - BBC News

    Man drives 33 XL Bullys to Scotland after ban

    A dog lover has been driving to Scotland to rehome American bully XLs. Sammy Wilkinson has taken 33 dogs to Scotland so far, as tighter laws on their ownership were introduced on 31 December in England and Wales. The laws have not been introduced in Scotland.

    Mr Wilkinson, from Tipton, West Midlands, said he had been inundated with owners needing help and is making another trip on Friday. He said he was passionate about helping dogs that might otherwise be abandoned.

    Mr Wilkinson said he was seeing some owners who bought bully XL dogs during Covid lockdowns, when they became what he called "a status dog", and were now giving them up. "A lot of owners have been irresponsible, in taking these dogs on in the first place," he said.

     

    Great, so this guy is carting these potential killing machines up to Scotland knowing full well that many of them have been looked after up until now by "irresponsible owners." Then they'll no doubt get rehomed to more irresponsible owners. Not sure why the Scottish Government is not following suit with the UK Gov on this one, how many attacks by these monsters will it take for the penny to drop?

  7. Ironically I actually had a better day out than it would have been thanks to the postponement. A good time was had in Arbroath. Chinwagging with the locals, playful banter with DABs, a cheeky half bottle and anti-United songs with fellow SJFC fans on the terraces of Gayfield and then back to the pubs of Dundee until the last train home. A fine day out.
