    Might as well get this bin fire started early doors.

    Home win of any kind please. 

    Thank you .

    The last St Mirren v Dundee match thread gave bin fires a bad name. No reason to think this one will be any different. Already, you can sniff the interest levels from Dees and Smurrnnn fans are way, way, higher than our interest in today’s uglies threads.

    Too early to get the thread bingo going?… Weegies. Celtic Shop. Booo! Weird lot. Weegie lites. Fcuking boooo! Moaning faced kunts, Paisley junkies.

    …House!

    He's been poor at cross balls for weeks now. For some reason he'll barrel out and try a mad punch or swipe away rather than catch. 

    I won't mind if he's here next season but I definitely also wouldn't be too fussed if we rolled the dice.

     

    He was also at fault when Lundstram nearly curled one in during the first half. Another flapped half-punch sees him standed well out from his line but he doesn’t retreat back, he just stands there while Lundstram curls it wide of the empty net. He’s certainly not been a bombscare overall, and has made important saves, but he is most certainly a bombscare when it comes to crosses, and his decision making in regard to punching, collecting, or doing neither. He simply does not command his box. I’d roll the dice, personally. No offence, just my opinion.

    No believing that.

    Back in the days when we used to always win playing St Mirren away, i loved going there for their fans raging at everything, referee, our manager, their manager, linesman, 4th official, our players, their players, our fans, everyone got it, was brilliant entertainment.

    Shame you won’t be back anytime soon to enjoy it again.

    It was Chicago Bears stuff when I was a wee boy. I don't think anyone even gave any thought to what sport they played, just that it was one of those weird American ones.

    I assumed they must be the best, but aren't they a bit shite in reality?

    They were the best in 1985. Had a ‘thing’ going with ‘The Fridge’ and a maverick QB in McMahon. Won the Super Bowl. Like my own team, they are indeed currently ‘a bit shite’. 😎

    Same with Joy Division Unknown Pleasures and Pink Floyd DSOTM t-shirts.

    More to do with the iconic designs I suspect.

    See also Las Vegas Raiders NFL T Shirts. I suppose the ‘ultimate’ example of this are NY Yankees baseball caps. Everywhere… clearly no-one (or 99% of them anyway) wearing one is actually a baseball fan, it’s just about the logo. As an NFL fan myself, if I see someone wearing a Raiders item, I generally don’t reckon they’ll be into the sport. I saw a guy in my local Tesco recently wearing an old Reebok era Cincinatti Bengals jersey, said ‘Go Bengals’ to him in passing, and he was a fan. Was too niche a jersey to be a ‘fashion choice’ item. 
    Doesn’t always work out, but you can usually differentiate between a fan, or someone who went to Lids and came out with a Raiders cap.

    Last time I was in, I noticed that Tesco stock AC/DC and Nirvana shirts in their vanishingly small section of men's clothes, so I presume that's how that happens. Nirvana is now safe dad music, and things like the Ramones logo just makes for an appealing design. I had a Motley Crue shirt when I was 9 because it was cheap, my mum liked the design, and neither of us knew who they were.

    I don't really get why it bothers folk that people might wear their favourite band's shirts without knowing who they are; they don't get a discount at the supermarket for wearing it or anything, and maybe some people might listen to and enjoy their work as a result, giving the band some extra money. It's like when people get pissy because their favourite grindcore act has a hit with a cheesy pop song* - they've made stuff that you loved, why wouldn't you be happy that they've made a bit of cash?

    * Hiya Brujeria, hiya pal!

    My favourite bands are Rush and Wolf Alice. Haven’t seen anyone wearing a glittery ‘Caress of Steel’ fashion T Shirt yet. 😜
