DumbartonBud Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 3 hours ago, Coventry Saint said: Separate question for any of you guys with kids: what age tends to be good to take them to their first games? My older boy is 5 (and a half... that bit's important) now and does ask about Saints a fair bit, but he's never sat through a full game on the TV yet. Obviously I've got a fair bit of travelling to build in as well so it takes more planning. I took my son when he was just under 5 but the main reason for this was it was the last season at Love St and I figured that if he ended up supporting Saints it would be significant for him in later life. Years of season tickets later he is still going, albeit he has gone with his pals rather than me for a few years now. Be prepared to spend a fortune at the kiosks and answering endless questions or alternatively be prepared to find ways to keep him amused as you try and watch the game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Aberdeen and Livi up next , we really need to get a win soon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if we were that comfortable because Hibs were playing so poor or if we had their number. 2nd half they destroyed us for 15 minutes and we looked doomed. To be fair to the team they reacted brilliantly and played their best stuff of the season for the remainder of the match. Would have been really disappointing to have picked up no points today. f**k knows what Aberdeen are going to be like next week but hopefully we start off the way we finished the game today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We seem to have shaken off the Aberdeen hoodoo last season and they are there for the taking. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crisis and apathy surround the football club and we are a disgrace/shambles/certain to be relegated. The actual reality of us doing just fine is not important. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The actual reality of us doing just fine is not important.Yip I just don't get it. I've supported the club for 45 years and although there are downs with the occasional (sometimes fantastic) ups, my overall feeling is one of pride in the club. The length some "supporters" go to in an attempt to highlight every little negative is beyond comprehension. Stuff like pie shops and logos on strips, who actually GAF ? At the end of the day I enjoy watching my team and the politics behind the scenes are pretty irrelevant yet some seem to forget we are an actual football club whose pretty much sole function is to perform for 90 odd mins once or twice a week. Hopefully a few more points on the board will see all that melt away starting next week. ETA just had a read of the Falkirk thread now there is a support with genuine cause to moan. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stark went from St Mirren to Aberdeen then Celtic. Have you never seen the Miller-Hansen defending in the 1982 World Cup? Miller was a World Class c**t. Still is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
