Discounting games against Brechin, the fifth last goal we scored in the league was Froxy's against Dunfermline in November. 16 games ago. Didn't the 2-2 with QoS and Tom Walsh' s at Smurn come after that? I make that 17 games ago. After tonight's game our fifth last goal was Ally Roy's on Boxing Day. Froxy's was another four beyond that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he was right that is exactly what he said... ETA: maybe I'm being pedantic (or just wrong) but wasn't our 5th last goal the first one vs Dundee United on Saturday?

PWL Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 For those who took the train option to Inverness last time - how much of 'by the skin of your teeth' job was getting the train just after the match? Don't really fancy still trying to get home via Edinburgh close to midnight if I don't make it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't really fancy still trying to get home via Edinburgh close to midnight if I don't make it. Is it the half 5 train you're aiming for? I got it last time and left the game about six or seven minutes early. Made it in a decent amount of time, but I was only with my brother and we both were practically speedwalking. Sonsteam of 08sr left at nearer half past. He still made it to the station with about 15 minutes to spare though - albeit he is very slow! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PWL Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Thanks. Yeah that's the one I was looking at. Not sure if train or drive is best option yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on whether or not you can get a good deal on tickets. I got there and back for about £15 last time, so it was a no brainer to get the train and just miss the last few minutes of the game. Left the house at the back of eight and wasn't in until about quarter to ten though (thanks to Scotrail cancelling a few Milngavie trains) though so it makes it a longer day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Moonster Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Right folks, as part of a big effort from the Trust to make match days more of a fan friendly experience, and to hopefully entice more folk down to use the facilities pre-match, I will be running pre-match musical entertainment. We start off this idea with the Falkirk match, local artist Paul Shearer will be playing a set from 1:30pm in the community suite. If you're a singer or in a band or know anyone that might be interested please send this onto them - https://sonstrust.wordpress.com/2018/04/12/platform-for-artists-supportoursons/ Feel free to drop me an email or a message if it's something that interests you and I can start a list of artists for next season! 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tambourine recital's got to be one of the events. ETA good plan though, got to be worth a try.

Tambourine Open Workshop is on the list, it will give other fans without tambourines an opportunity to learn from the best! In all seriousness, yes, there is no harm in us trying this. Anyone I've spoken to thinks it's a good idea, but the big thing will be whether or not folk actually come down to watch it. There will be a big effort from the Trust in trying to make the match day a bit more enjoyable and in the process we hope to raise the income the club receives (very important for us!). We are, of course, also open to ideas from anyone - if anyone has anything they would like to see on a match day please let us know (comment here or message me) and we'll see if it can be done. There are no stupid ideas at this point, we have pretty much a blank canvass to work with so don't be shy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great idea. Paul Shearer is very decent, I'm fairly confident he will go down well. Must be a fair few Sons fans out there who would get involved? A dueling moothy and accordian between Squeezebox and Wilf before the playoff semi final would go down a treat IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
