  1. Are they? My interpretation is that Schapps said "that's what Dom said" and that they're waiting to see how bad public opinion against TheDom turns out or if what Dom says about no-one from the polis talking to his family says can be proven to be untrue - no doubt hairs will be split.
  2. It seems TheDon and his team can't do anything right... Donald Trump press secretary inadvertently reveals president's bank details https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/may/23/donald-trump-press-secretary-inadvertently-reveals-presidents-bank-details
  3. I'd be very surprised if they're relegated from the Championship...
  4. Hair splitting especially as they're helping to fund construction of the new stand which I presume is intended to increase club revenue.
  5. 1-0 to Saints thanks to the ref missing Obika's handball in the run-up to our goal and denying Hearts a decent penalty shout in the final 5 minutes. A 1-0 Hearts win would have been enough to put them above us on goals scored (not 2-0 as the innumerate Gashauskis9 stated above) - but that my friend is fucking Karma! Thanks for asking!
  6. It's not even as if this is a new issue (except to SBW-AB & her cronies), if you look at the Championship Corona Thread they've been discussing this for over a month now and how this will affect when that division can restart playing.
  7. I disagree, I still reckon there was sympathy for Hearts at the start of the process and if SBW-AB had been a bit more aware that other clubs have financial worries about the pandemic and the next coupla years and offered say 5 years on an expended top flight before any further reconstruction happened she'd have had a lot more interest from diddy clubs like ourselves.. It's over now 12-10-10-10 remains the system and we're making offers to players based on that with fingers crossed on when games can restart and more importantly when will any & how many fans will be let in. I repeat it's over, the ship has sailed and if it comes back into port to pick up Hearts (+1) my flabber will be gasted.
  8. The decision's been made, we're already looking to sign players based on this - the time for successful businesswoman Anne Budge to find a solution acceptable to diddy clubs like ourselves was last month.
  9. Change in the tone of reporting as para 2 ends by stating what it's all about.
  10. Warm down after game, staggered showring and changing, clean down between teams coming & going and again staggered changing and warm up. I doubt this could all be done in an hour. I'd say even starting at 10am you'd be looking at 3 matches maximum with the others starting at say 3pm & 8pm - more likely 2 per day per venue.
  11. I remember when "The Big Yin" was a Thistle fan!
  12. I was worried from the day Thommo's injury was announced and we did hang in there until McLean left on the last day of the transfer window when we were 10th. http://www.fitbastats.com/stmirren/comphist_tables_onday.php?played=2015-01-31&played_dp=1&played_year_start=125&played_year_end=2020&played_mon=&played_da1=125-06-01&played_da2=2020-05-14&played_sna=1&played_aut=&played_frm=&played_tar=&played_inp=1&played_fmt=d-M-Y&played_day=31&played_month=01&played_year=2015&submit=Submit.
  13. So if their two highly paid strikers had performed up to par and they had been better organized do you still think they'd be bottom of the league?
  14. The 90/91 restructure was to save Hibs who were in a perilous financial state at the time having just survived a takeover bid from then Hearts Chairman Wallace Mercer and looked certainties for relegation early in the season - after relegation was suspended Saints (the real ones) went on a spectacular run to snatch bottom spot from Hibs and make it all seem a bit farcical. Unfortunately for us it was part of a bigger malaise at the club at the time & we were relegated the following season.
  15. Here's a quote containing the opinions of Les Gray & Budge from the start of the reconstruction process Budgies (sic) public statements to the effect that she/Hearts wanted a temporary reconstruction sorted within a 3 week period are what stopped any chance of reconstruction. The other SPFL clubs are not minions from her old company bound to do her bidding and should have been courted rather than instructed. Even today there are still olive branches potentially available... ...yet Budge/Hearts are still pursuing a line veering between aggression and self-pity that is being echoed by yourself and many other Hearts posters on here - like I said most of the sympathy that might have helped your club ebbed away through Budge's arrogance.
  16. Just the sorta classy statement that cost you whatever sympathy you had from other clubs.
  17. "Whoooooh-Oh Snakes of Paisley" to The Clash's Guns of Brixton.....
  18. I'd just like to thank the ref for ignoring Obika's handball in the run-up to our goal and denying Hearts' penalty claim. Contrary to what the arithmetically challenged Hearts fan thought prior to the match a 1-0 victory for Hearts would have left them above us on goals scored but as everyone knows Big Teams always get the decisions!
  19. A Saints supporting mate of mine who worked in the Greenock Postal Sorting Office at the time claims to have started that rumour - ssssshhhhh!
  20. I have no recollection of sitting next to your cousins at that game, btw that's just about the best photo of me ever obviously 80 yards is about my best distance!
