  1. That's great cheers [emoji3] We had about 3000 fans. I remember going straight back for a stag night after it and we'd brought a few guys along from that who weren't 'Well fans who loved it. They spent the whole game putting big diagonal balls into the box that were food and drink to big Sieb. The highlight being the one where he struggled to stay in his box with the ball- glad to see it included in the highlights to confirm a 25 year old memory is correct for once!
  2. Look at the size of the away support we had in those days though compared to what we take now.
  3. Was Owen Coyle not with us when he played for Ireland at the the 94 World Cup? Did we have the Irish forward line playing up front for us?
  4. Yip, my wife is not at all keen on me missing a family wedding for a group stage League Cup game in Dumfries. Can't see why personally.
  5. Going by the radio commentary on Sunday, there were sections of the St. Mirren pitch invasion over goading the Dundee United support. Don't know how many were involved but there doesn't seem to have been much made of it. Wonder why?
  6. Cheers. I've somehow now got to try and get some work done this afternoon!
  7. Cheers for posting that - I was relying on someone a bit more tech savvy than me. You don't have the short clip of just Marvin's goal do you? I could watch that on loop all day!
  8. How many tickets do they get in the main stand? 1000 - 1500? So somewhere between £25k and £40k but possibly less stewarding and policing costs and it may encourage a few more home supporters along that would normally avoid these games.
  9. I'm obviously not alone in thinking this should have just been put to bed after Season 2 (in Season 1). Doesn't mean I won't end up giving Season 3 a go though.
  10. Cheers. Going by that video he did in fact score both those goals! Looks as though we've signed the wrong Casper/Kasper if we were looking for a goalscorer but he's definitely a much better pedigree than we would normally be able to get so hopefully we can get him to rediscover his form.
  11. I like the way he hits the ball while wearing a black strip then runs away celebrating in a completely different strip (Denmark?). Almost as if it's not actually him.
  12. Lawless could have done a job for us over the last few years but when we released him we were qualifying for Europe every year. He's never been close to the level of player we had in those days.
  13. Wow! Just read that. Absolutely bonkers and Turnbull hardly gets mentioned after the first few pages. Tartan Tammy is all over the place again with random deleted posts popping up in other people's quotes.
  14. There's loads of posts from Tartan Tammy being quoted but I don't see his original posts (apart from those on this page). What's going on here? Has he selectively deleted some of them? Do we just ignore him and hope he gets fed up trolling?
  15. Oh well, that'll be every third baby boy getting named Archie. Boo!
  16. I went to a party in a function room at a pub in Paisley and that was exactly the choice available. Having walked through the pub to find the function room, it looked as they served a few other beers in the main bar so I thought I'd go through and check but was stopped by a member of staff who told me I couldn't take drinks through or walk between bars as they were separate premises. The function room had a separate entrance but they were quite clearly the same place with staff walking between the bars regularly. She also didn't seem to be able to get her head round the concept that I might like a different drink from what was available.
  17. I saw the Laphroaig Quarter Cask in Costco for £30. Anyone tried it? Any good? Decent price?
  18. Yeah, even if we're playing shite, you can't beat that buzz of excitement you get when the ball goes to someone who can potentially make something happen. Up until the start of this calendar year we've not had that for a while (probably since Marv) and I'm hoping we'll still have it at the start of next season.
  19. I managed to get that album completed (1978) and even as a small boy I wondered about that picture of Shuggy. At last I have an explanation!
  20. They've done it before but normally on the last day. Saturday was pretty crazy for the timing of the goals and the turnaround but you wouldn't normally expect that treatment in the highlights package for the fourth last round of fixtures.
  21. I think I'm right in saying we've not lost to a bottom six team this year. Let's see if we can keep that going until the end of the season. Very impressive for a club of our standing.
