Against Sevco, our record at Ibrox is... Won: 2 Drawn: 2 Lost: 3 In those 7 games, we've conceded more than 1 goal just twice. As always, you've zero idea what you're even talking about. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of recent statistics I just don't sit down to watch a Rangers v St Johnstone game expecting a draw or a win. I can understand why you feel differently and you've earned that right with your knowledge of recent results, it just doesn't seem fun to me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real Saints Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 In that case, why should we feel passionate about anything in life? Don’t put people down for investing emotion into things they enjoy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Real Saints Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 If this had happened during Tommy’s time in charge, we can be sure he would have been scathing in the media. Will be interesting to see how Callum deals with this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fife Saint Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 SB on the board. To me there is a whiff of culpability if they didnt have pre-agreed protocols for this pretty easily foreseeable eventuality and a member feels unhappy about it. They've been railroad by the SG quite clearly but I dont know if postponement was the correct action. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t disagree but what is to be gained from being scathing? It will quickly turn people to, it’s a global epidemic and Saints are whining about not getting 3 points for a game that had to be postponed because of it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they’ve been training with the rest of the squad there may be a number of players developing covid who wouldn’t test positive yet. It’s utterly shit but it’s the right decision. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s utterly shit but it’s the right decision. Absolutely, the point being we should have a clear plan for this scenario. Has there been a statement from the spfl yet? A brief one.. Quote Following a meeting this morning between the Minister for Public Health, Sport and Wellbeing, Joe FitzPatrick, the Scottish FA Chief Executive, Ian Maxwell, and the Chief Executive of the SPFL, Neil Doncaster, to further examine the circumstances around the self-isolation of eight Aberdeen FC players, a request was received from Scottish Government - and agreement reached - to postpone Saturday’s Scottish Premiership match against St Johnstone. There is an evolving public health outbreak in Aberdeen and the minister conveyed the need for additional work to provide further assurance around Aberdeen FC’s adherence to the agreed protocols. Given the overriding responsibility to public health, the subsequent advice and discussion with the minister this morning means that the Joint Response Group must adhere to the request to postpone the match. St Johnstone seem to be meekly accepting it. Maybe they've all been at it and it's just the Aberdeen boys who got unlucky, so they don't want to make a fuss. Quote This weekend's Scottish Premiership fixture against Aberdeen at McDiarmid Park has been postponed. The Club is disappointed at the news of this postponement but the health and wellbeing of everybody is of paramount importance in this situation. We're also disappointed for our Season Ticket holders and supporters who were looking forward to watching the match. We will keep you updated with news regarding the rescheduling of this fixture. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be putting a complaint in to the SPFL that the game being cancelled was a consequence of a clear breach of the rules by Aberdeen players and St Johnstone should be awarded the points. The worst that could happen is that it's rejected. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No surprise to see a Falkirk fan advocating toys out the pram though Agree. Trying to claim the points would come across as petty given the seriousness of the situation, and probably bad karma. Play this with a straight bat IMO. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its an absolutely shit state of affairs from a Saints point of view, only two preseason games and a cancellation and next up Ibrox and when the game is scheduled Aberdeen have a full squad. Definitely been shafted and from his statement I think Cormack expected a forfeit but I don’t see anything to gain from trying to take it further. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need games. Granted Rangers did a lot of ball chasing last night. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
