As featured by the superb Saints on this Day twitter. I always thought there was more to his short stay than his party piece as that was known before his appointment and rumours of him coming up, taking one look around and deciding 'what the f**k have I done' before heading back south were floating around. The disappearance of the media goodwill reference is down to the weegie *** lovers not forgiving Saints for sacking Totten. They still haven't. That last paragraph is hilarious, and demonstrates the self-importance of the weegia around that time. It's magic that these tabloids are dying out. Never forget, the press always have the last word Geoff 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GordonS Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 Just terrible. Made worse by the fact that it wasn't put up on the SPFL YouTube page until 2 days after Christmas,I clicked on that thinking, how bad can it be?I found out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially considering it’s a player that no Motherwell fan is bothered to see go. Partick Thistle signing players from the National League South is pretty tinpot though tbf. We sent him back because he was an utter shit-gibbon, tbf! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would seem rude to say "they made an offer that we had absolutely no intention of competing with and we're fucking delighted" - but that is the reality. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the ref had a problem with the kits it could be sorted beforehand (and was on one or two occasions, usually involving sock colours). With similar colours have Aberdeen played in red against Hearts in maroon or Arbroath in maroon against Brechin in red recently? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember doing those phone calls 20 odd years ago in the Ayrshire League Div 2. Somehow in spite of all the advances in technology, it is acceptable to postpone matches because someone has forgotten to pack the kit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as the match official is happy that there is no clash then it is ok although if there is a difference from the original colours intimated then the club involved will be reported. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
