AMMjag Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 If you can't beat St Mirren playing them in the first few weeks of a season, then you're probably fucked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyeothedug Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Wighton to start. Hope Thommo is back. Three points would give us six from four games and be fine. Undefeated too. Build from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Sanchez Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 I think the animosity between the two sides stems from when John 'Who owns the deeds' Brown said that they would overtake us a few seasons ago (after Rangers Light scandalously got rid of Barry Smith). They did, he was good to his word and offered contracts to our best players and St Mirren went down from the top flight and have been full of seeth ever since. He continued his stellar work in football management and was snapped up by a huge club and obviously won the champions league. Did I get that right..? I'm expecting a scrappy game, but I think we'll snatch all three points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smeato Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 any family friendly pubs near the ground so I can get pissed pre match. Plenty. The Last Post is across from Gilmour Street Station. It's a spoons so cheap booze (£2.20 a pint) and does meal deals (Beer and a burger and chips for £5 etc). Family friendly and pretty big as well if you're in a group. If you just want to get bladdered then go to the Bull Inn which is a 5 minute walk from the station. 7 Girraffes on tap and since the place is tiny you'll be forced to mingle with the legions of buddies that congregate there on match day. Friendly atmosphere though so I wouldn't worry about being a Dee. Enjoy the trip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demented Zebra Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 McAlister is a good player, was fine yesterday, but he's a bit over enthusiastic at times, to the detriment of the team shape. Cheers Fans looking for pubs. If you are traveling by bus best bet would be the Alamo on St James street. Just further up the road from our old stadium. They give out free pies and a £10.00 to the best dressed away fan normally a child. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigmouth Strikes Again Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Team for Saturday. Letheren McGinn McPake Konrad Dyer (if fit) Thomson (if fit) McAlister McGowan Harkins Wighton Tankulic Go with Tankulic and see how it goes. Bring on Stewart if struggling. Get McAlister and MacGowan out a little wider and have the wing backs come in a little. Bring on Ferry and Boyle if required. A lot depends on Thomson and Dyer being fit. Not sure who to play left back if Dyer is out. Aye, let's try and keep away from personal insults, talk about the football. Doubt that will happen but worth a try. I like that side, could be a bit too narrow though you c**t.* *only joking trippy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dburns Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 If we play a diamond it'll be a bad move, our full backs aren't even close to being decent wing-backs imo, i'll be happy if we play a 4-2-3-1 and sit McAlister out on the left for this one and have a lone striker backed up by the 3 behind them.LetherenMcGinn/Irvine Konrad McPake Dyer/McGinnThomson/Ferry McGowanBoyle Harkins McAlisterPeaso/Stewart/Tank/Wighton.or if Thomson is definitely fit go for sheer blistering speed up front:LetherenMcGinn/Irvine Konrad McPake Dyer/McGinnThomson Ferry/HarkinsMcGowan Harkins McAlisterBoyle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted August 17, 2014 Author Share Posted August 17, 2014 What's with the new rule of the date's getting added to the thread title by a mod? Not that I'm bothered, just wondering like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fraser_smfc Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 St Mirren fans still pinning all their survival hopes on Thomson. Can see them finishing in the playoff place then capitulating to Sevco over two legs. Just an absolute failure of a club. Who? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewing Taffies Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Have to say I much prefer the St Mirren fans chat to the Thistle fans last week. All that pish about tactics and things that actually happen on the pitch. Poofter c***s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine it's an investment in the future. Pain in the arse when you're trying to look up a game from three seasons ago and have to look at 12 threads all titled "St Mirren vs Motherwell" or something. Longevity n aw that.

sergie's no1 fan Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 If we can stick to football chat there's no need for the thread to shitfest. Key battles will be Thompson v McPake, if he's fit . Goodwin v McGowan and McGinn v McGinn. With McAusland and McPake playing there is a chance of a slip up for both teams. Goodwin and McGowan are both hot heads who will know exactly how to push each other's buttons . Hoping to see 2 teams who want to play football go for the 3 points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smeato Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 I never thought about Goodwin vs McGowan. That's going to be a bit tense. Will be excellent to see the McGinn's play off against each other too. This game isn't going to be a shitfest, whatever happens. I expect at least 4 goals, a sending off, BOOOOOOOO and seagulls galore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AberdeenBud Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Hope McGowan gets a decent reception. Didn't part on the best of terms but he's still a cup winning legend who played a vital role in that victory. Despite not seeing the best of him the last season I still felt some of our best performances were when he was in the mood and controlling the game.

Chewing Taffies Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 McGowan is arguably our best player but even after just a few game I can tell he could probably start a fight in an empty house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
