    I consider myself very fortunate to have seen Gordon McQueen play for St Mirren. Even more fortunate to have been at the game where he literally burst the net while scoring a rasping shot from distance. 
     

    A brilliant centre half who went on to have a fabulous career. Came back as a coach during the Fitzy management days.

    RIP big man.

    I was a youngster at that game. Sure it was a midweek game and through the fog of time, I’m sure it wasn’t given as it went under the net, but I may be wrong

  2. If you read beyond the tears and snotters of The Rangers statement, the most telling line is where they state that the Conference League was seen by them and their Green business partners as a ‘good first step’.

    Make no mistake, the intention was to gradually allow both to progress to the Championship over time. 
     

    I suspect Rangers/Celtic and the quisling Maxwell will continue to push this and it must be opposed at every opportunity 

  3. According to BBC website:

    Maxwell said “ We wanted it to be overwhelmingly supported. From a board perspective, we didn’t want it to go through 51-49. We need to reflect on what’s happened and understand the best way to take that forward and make sure that the next proposal that comes is supported overwhelmingly across the game.”

     

    so it ain’t going away

    It’s easy to see who wins but it’s the style of football and the players up here that they know nothing about. How many players have came up here thinking it’s a walk in the park and found it a lot tougher. 
     

    it’s much the same for the majority of leagues in Europe. Only a small percentage have a chance of winning.

    This is exactly why the perpetual winners of these leagues want a European Super League. The domestic bubble has burst in most leagues, including England, because the sportswashing clubs are hoovering up all the trophies. We have moaned about the financial gulf here, but the same is now true everywhere else as well.

    Great news, it’s 2012 all over again. SFA and SPFL thought they could ride roughshod over everyone else. Well it’s the Clubs and the fans that have the power and once again we’ve said a resounding No! If Maxwell has a shred of decency he’ll be resigning tomorrow.  Won’t hold my breath on that one. 

    Absolutely 

  6. I don’t get the argument that there would be meaningless games. As things stand, the risk of relegation from the top flight, coupled with the drop in revenue that follows, makes managers risk averse. Youngsters aren’t blooded as the risk is too high.  Most teams, outwith the Glasgow Mafia, have too much to lose. That, coupled with playing the same teams 4 times a season is stale. 
    Look at the big leagues of Europe. In England, Germany, Spain, Italy and France, there are loads of meaningless games towards the end of every season. Clubs who are safe or cannot qualify for Europe, use these games to rotate their squads and start building for the next season. Here, clubs cannot contemplate any advance thinking until the season ends.

    Good question. Is it a secret ballot vote aswell ?. 

    Who knows. St Mirren have balloted members so I’m delighted to report that we will definitively vote No, as will Motherwell and Livingston. The others in the top league have been silent in public

    I'm genuinely amazed that so many diddy fans still haven't realised that the real problem with Scottish football is their own club and their Stockholm Syndrome. It's too late. The chance for genuine change came and went simply because the diddy clubs wanted it that way. Scottish football will never change.

    That is simply not true. Aberdeen under Milne stopped genuine change, for reasons no one has ever explained

    Aye, fair enough: it's definitely a heavy hint that he'll be joining us so we'll see what happens. He has mentioned so many times now how much he enjoyed his spell with us and he strikes me as the type of player that really needs to enjoy the game. 

    Wouldn't surprise me to see Watt + Greive line up at the start of next season.  

    Hopefully Ayunga will be back and fully fit
