  1. Might have been posted before, but is there a list of who is out of contract in the summer and who we have tied up beyond then?
  2. I'd happily accept permanent relegation to never have to share a thread with Dundee fans' patter ever again TBH.
  3. This is one of those "should be on the telly" games. Proper fitba. Two sides with something to play for that can both play a bit. The last big meaningful game between the sides saw Cody Cooke score the sloppiest hat trick of all time. Dundee 2-3 St Mirren. James Scott hat trick.
  4. I thought it was pretty obvious when he was with us, he's a hard-working industrious type, perfectly suited to the Championship. He never struck me as a first choice top flight footballer.
  5. Not for me I'm afraid. I don't see a foul there. He's under pressure from Dessers and just has to be stronger. He goes down, right in front of Hemming, impeding him getting anywhere near it. A shame as Bolton has been excellent for us since nailing down his spot, but I'm looking for him to do better there.
  6. We were the better team overall I thought, but you simply cannot get away with the mistakes Hemming and Bolton made for the 2 goals.
  7. There's been some breath-taking long-range solo attacks this classics season. But f**k me it hasn't half been boring. It is quite the thing to watch, but it just takes away from a cracking run in to the finish. Pogi and MVDP have dominated by making it a fairly tame watch. Strade Bianchi, Pogi goes solo with 80k to go. MVDP won E3 after going solo at 43k to go. In Flanders, MVDP won after going solo with 45k to go. MVDP won Paris Roubaix, going solo with 60k to go. Pogi wOn LBL, going solo with 35k to go. Impressive as hell, but not exactly exciting racing.
  8. Not buying into this Rangers/Dundee result fucking us over patter. We need to look after ourselves. If we can pick up a result against the OF in the last 5 games, then great. If we don't and finish 6th behind Dundee, then thems the breaks. It feels like we may just be running out of steam towards the tail-end of the season. Hopefully we can pick up a few decent results to get ourselves over the line. Either way, we've had another very good season. Hopefully we can round it off by finishing 5th.
  9. What's the end goal by showing the CCTV footage? Serious question. What did AEW/Tony think this would achieve? My personal opinion was always that I thought Punk was a fairly egotistical arsehole, but who was, more often than not, correct in everything he was saying about the Bucks and their crew. After Brawl In and the Perry situation, my take was that he may or may not have been correct in his actions, but that Tony/the disciplinary committee decision was a joke. All airing the footage has done has shown me that Punk accurately described the situation. I don't know if Tony/AEW thought it would be some sort of gotcha moment. But for me, all it's done is show that Tony is in fact a clown and that Punk, as much of an arsehole as he always comes across, was actually telling the truth here. It was a stupid move and everyone except Tony knew it would be.
  10. If you put on a shit TV show, you get called out on it. Tony is 100% disingenuous to suggest all criticism is "in bad faith". You can say that about any TV show ever made.
  11. I had no idea Tony Khan was even on P&B.
  12. See Willie "there's nothing much happening here" Miller. Every single game I've heard him cover.
  13. Actually, despite a slow start, where he was on the bench virtually every week, in recent weeks he has actually been more involved in a Stirling Albion bid to avoid the relegation play-off. He's chipped in with a few goals and assists in recent week and certainly seems to be a bit of a bright spark in an otherwise poor Stirling Albion side.
  14. It's not really a mystery why a 21-year-old boy who moved half way round the world right as a war kicks off back home and subsequently fails to settle. I think it's fairly obvious why he didn't hit the ground running.
  15. Count me in, I will accept a blunder every season against us like that West Brom game if meant not having every single game re-refereed by VAR. When fouls and offsides which are not clear and obvious are being flagged up multiple times in every game - yeah let's get rid of that. It's a nonsense. Referees have cushy jobs these days. Make the bare minimum on-field decisions and just let VAR referee the game for you so that when you do actually have to make a decision you get to take 5 minutes to watch it frame-by-frame as many times as you like. VAR is not being utilised in the way we were told it would be when it was introduced. Get it to f**k.
  16. The real issue for me is that, clubs here don't have the budget to do it properly. I'm so sick of incidents going to a VAR review and you get camera shots, none of which are at an angle to definitively say what's actually happened. We don't have enough cameras at the games to implement it properly. I believe in Scotland it's 6 cameras per game - 2 in the main stand, 1 in line with each penalty box and 1 behind each goal. You only actually get decent angles on Sky games where they supply the additional cameras. VAR being implemented under strict budgets is ever going to work well.
  17. The Aberdeen support would be apoplectic if thy signed another manager from us.
  18. Interesting - https://www.stmirren.com/club-news/5337-club-statement-var-error-v-ross-county In this instance, a "whoops, our bad, soz" won't do much to appease the club or supporters in their belief that the officials operating VAR just aren't up to scratch. Personally, I think VAR has its value, but it should be shelved until we have officials capable of using it properly. That non-decision could ultimately cost us European football. In instances like this, where such a blatant f**k up has been made, there should be some sort of explanation put forward as to why and how the mistake was made - otherwise there's absolutely no trust or confidence that it will be implemented properly going forward.
  19. I have absolutely no idea what Levein was trying to do at all today. Even when it was only 1-0, St Johnstone offered nothing. At 2-0 down with 25 minutes+ to play, still nothing. They didn’t pin us in and try to get back in to it. They literally just rolled over. That’s the poorest I’ve seen against us this season - and that includes us pumping St Johnstone 4-0 earlier this season. Abject.
  20. Embarrassing scenes outside afterwards from the ned crew. Lots of jumping up and down and pretending to try and get past police to fight each other. Get them out of our club. What a beamer.
  21. A weirdo element of our support didn't want Robinson to begin with and actively relish in us picking up poor results as a stick to beat him with. He's comfortably the best manager we've had in my near 30 years going to games. Chinning him for absolutely everything and anything is pathetic. A tiny section wanted him sacked for "sarcastically applauding" after a game FFS. Some utter oddballs just don't want him at the club for some unknown reason.
  22. God forbid he actually does some research prior to the game he's being paid to cover by the national broadcaster.
  23. Not sure why Docherty is even comparing the two handballs. The one conceded against Hearts, Ashcroft is turned side on and it hit's his outstretched hand. Unfortunate, but it's an un-natural position and a penalty. The one last night, Boyd-Munce has his hand literally down by his side, not in an un-natural position and not making himself bigger. Clearly never a penalty. The whole argument is fucking stupid.
  24. Is the boy Dodgson one of the Burnley connections? He looked absolutely dugmeat all night long.
