I know this thread's primarily about the building group but my favourite Stuart Milne thing is when he exited Hampden close to tears because Stuart Gilmour & Roy Mcgregor scuppered his league reconstruction hopes
And they only managed it because Stuart Milne himself kyboshed scrapping the 11/1 vote
What a fucking tool.
Glorious:
Found it - 2004/5
St Mirren halted an unbeaten at home season with Queens making it two home defeats a couple of weeks later in the last game of the season.
I have a vague memory of a 'near-thing' unbeaten season that St Mirren ended - my half-arsed googling hasn't thrown anything up though (I guess it must've been an 'unbeaten at home' run if anything )
**I'm in no way suggesting we'll manage to go the rest of this season unbeaten of course**
There's a chance, cause I was one of them, that the South Stand selling out as early as it did meant there were quite a few in the main stand who'd normally be in the KM7.
I had Hamilton's league position down to key injuries rather than Rankin tbf - am I even a bit right?
There's still miles to go - couple of favourable/poor results one way or the other could totally flip the league - shiteing myself that we f'ck it up.
KM7 selling out this early for the Hamilton game took me a bit by surprise - hadn't noticed any chat if there was any - Main Stand tickets bought ... first time I'll have watched a game from there in years!!
What if there's a lengthy delay for something like an injury while there's a player in the bin? He might only miss about 3 minutes of actual game play!
What if he's injured on his way to the bin
What if a player gives the ref dog's abuse while being substituted ... does he have to stay on but not be on the park?
Not since Stevie Logan have I been as excited and then so disappointment in an FFC transfer - mind you Logan got game time, Allan practically didn’t.
Obviously not surprised at the move - hope he does well.
