    Not being greedy I would be really happy to finish 5th and get european football. 

    4th is still possible but a tall order. 

    If only VAR hadn't robbed us of at least 4 points. 

    Or if only we hadn't played the bottom three 5 times away from home and taken 2 points from 15. Forget VAR, it these 5 games that have stopped us being right in the mix proper for 4th.

  2. Seriously I went to Mechelen in 87, presumed it would be a regular thing. Here we are THIRTY SEVEN  years later and it's within touching distance.  My son is in his twenties and I keep telling him (and anyone reading this sentimental pish because this could be it for me despite me not feeling like an old fart) that IF we get there we will be going regardless of where and when as this might be it for me. The fact it's a double whammy with Scotland is making the whole summer a season from heaven. This is got to be our season now, dust down the passports, there's going to be a show.......

    Gogic. For the longest time, I've just thought of him as a useless clogger. A brute with very limited talents but decent enough in a scrap. 

    He fairly shut my puss today. Didn't lose a single header. Calmly dribbled past our attacking players when we were pressing him and was like a true leader for St Mirren at the back.

    Seriously mate he has been pretty much like that since we signed him. Yes today he was totally outstanding but watch the likes of a view from the terrace and they have been bigging him up since his Accies days. He is an absolutely class act at this level and we have been privileged to have him, a total warrior.

    Anyone else think the game had been called off when they read the first few words of this tweet?

    WTF, why didn't Dundee just give us the tickets for the full stand in the first place. What's the contingency if the stand now sells out, will there be a section of the main stand kept free in case ?

     

    ETA what kind of crowd are we looking at,  surely got to close to 10k ???

    My hotels in Munich, Cologne and Stuttgart are all sold out but my base in Berlin looks like it's gone up 5 fold. I made some mistakes booking very early but I'm glad of it now.

    Yip £600 each for a fortnight in a nice hotel with a pool inc breakfast was great business. Whether we stay the full 2 weeks or bail after the last game we have tickets for remains to be seen. No return flights booked but they are getting cheaper as there are just so many options route wise.

    Check spam folder, that's where the email ended up the last time for loads of people 

    The reason I didn't get email confirmation was I was logged in and buying via my sons UEFA account. He had the confirmation but was in an exam during the sale hence me buying on his behalf. All sorted now.

  7. Wife took the photo and its rotten but she is sharp on bird ID even abroad.  In Gran Canaria and seen all the usual ticks but a flick of common waxbills today were a site to behold. Awfa picbut I'm heading up the same way to see the Saints v HX buns tomorrow so will try for something better if still about

    Robertson and McTominay now 😂

     

    This is getting to be a fucking joke 

    What's the script with Robertson  ??? Thought he played today,  did he get injured ?

    Home to Killie and Hearts are must wins, glad either cheek won’t be running on our pitch to celebrate lifting the trophy

    That all depends on the result at Dens. Lose there and yes you would expect we will need to win those two to have a chance of Europe. First and foremost we need the Hot X Buns to do us a turn at Dens tomorrow which seems far from certain going by recent events.

    What a shitey, cowardly, backward little police ran country we live in

    The SPFL shitting a brick to avoid what every other country in the world would do, a final day decider. 

    All because the police won’t &/or can’t do their job effectively.

    Utterly pathetic.

    Sky want it on a specific date and they're waiting to see if it them becomes a potential title decider.

    Tbh they shoukd just schedule it last day and leave the issues to the police, it's hardly unpolicable, the do cup finals which are logistically much worse regularly

    So which is it dictating the date of the final bigotfest, Police Scotland or SKY ?

     

    FWIW I think the SPFL are the biggest apologists here. Pretty sure Police Scotland haven't issued some order to the SPFL not to make an OF game the final fixture. The governing body know fine they cant be trusted not to shame their brand and they themselves then take it upon themselves to avoid it whilst never actually saying why leaving it open to the type of speculation we are seeing now.

    They’ve already done so, just haven’t updated the page that the table is on as yet. Points for Netherlands away and Northern Ireland at home are on each individuals accounts.  
     

    You do not. 

    I didn't mean you won't get points for those games, I suspect they just won't update the "November" position ie the points used to decide who got for the group stages until after the tournament. Let's see, it's just a hunch based purely on it making it easier for their admin rather than any sense of fairness.

    Yep, mine has moved to 11 points now. Although they've not updated the main table showing numbers at each level. That's still dated November and doesn't include the Netherlands or Northern Ireland games.

    Odd. Certainly looks like they think they refunded you and aren't going to credit the points. I wonder if your history has been mixed with someone else's? I've certainly got the 2 points for the game (but then I'm not showing a refund either). Looks like you'll need to phone them to sort it.

    Don't think they will update the "November" position until after the Euros. Pretty sure the points position for the original Euro ticket sale will be maintained in case we make the ko stages.
