That will be plenty for killie I’d expect. The OF get the opposite end Stand as well, giving a total of 4600. In the 3rd place League decider second last game of the season in 1997(?), we brought over 3000 down to rugby park in a crowd of near 16000. That’s your challenge. I can see us bringing nearly 3000 as wee did at Aberdeen but there is no chance StJohnstone will supply the other 13000 Or indeed the other 7000 that would make it a sell out . Thats your challenge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it’s unlikely but my point was that it’s , unfortunately, more likely than 6000 St J fans turning up to watch 2 of the best in form teams at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can easy see a crowd approaching 7k for this game, if it's marketed right, and the Scotland games don't murder everyone's enthusiasm for football like the tend too.

It is incredible that our two teams do not generate greater support. Not always sure how accurately crowds are reported and what they include? Some clubs include ALL season ticket numbers no matter how many turn up. Some also include the free tickets they distribute to schools,boys clubs etc. and some of the clubs only include thoes who actually have entered and paid. There is no doubt both Killie and St Johnstone deserve bigger crowds than we achieve at present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outwith normal match goers who’s going to know the significance of this match when the height of our advertising will be a tweet? Gary will sort it.

Also, we'll have Swanson for this too, so that'll be a huge option we can bring off the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I’m with Ali here that anything over 3000 Saints fans would be good right now. After a fairly entertaining first home match v Dundee and the excitement of our summer signings, I thought our next home games v hibs and Aberdeen would generate good home supports. Don’t think either were over 2500 (home only) for fairly attractive fixtures. Agree that east stand felt a bit busier today, maybe it was by a wee bit, as st Mirren brought around 700 through so even smaller home support 2 weeks ago. Would like to see a push in the week prior to this game. Blue & white day, encourage every supporter to bring at least one extra Saints fan along etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadasdillinger Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 What's happened that St Johnstone are doing so well this season? In the opening game of the season you looked hopeless, truly hopeless. We've been getting lots of praise, while St Johnstone seem to have just quietly been gathering points and are now only 1 behind us. It's come as a surprise for me, given how woeful you guys were that day. Anyone or anything in particular responsible for the turnaround in fortunes?

We’re not lining up 5-4-1 any more and Aaron Comrie is consigned to a place in the stand. We’ve found a good balance in the team generally and our attacking players have gelled. All of this on top of the fact we’ve only conceded 7 goals in 11 matches against non-old firm teams has helped swift us up the table. Killie are a different kettle of fish to diddies like Hamilton and St Mirren right enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelsjfc Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 I’d put a one legged mallard in ahead of Comrie. Get him and Craig Thomson in and get Wright sacked. #Stjohnstonebanterhottakes Gutted this games two weeks away. Some difficult decisions for Wright to make again.

Guest Moomintroll Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 This thread has been derailed by all this football talk, time to get it back on track. If we leave there with a single Perthshire c**t still standing then we have failed, no prisoners, it's time to finish them off once and for all.
