I dunno. I've never rated him at all, but he's undeniably done the business for Saints, so I suppose the trade off is them being marginally worse and us being marginally better across the shorter term if he'd ended up here, given the fine margins this season looks like having, it could be inspired. That said, RG's numbers are... big. So longer term is the question. Who's RG? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, I'd imagine the numbers related to the fact that Saints apparently paid the guts of £100k to get him and it's suggested he's one of their higher earners. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An undersoil heating system problem? Given the nick of the damage to the stands I suppose it's possible there's been an idea floated about reversing the fixture on Friday with the game scheduled for Rugby Park in February. Fwiw there was no issue with the pitch on Friday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players must be itching to get back. No doubt but the risk reward just seems skewed to me...lose and everyone will go mental with a further loss at Ibrox and tricky one at livi next any hope of a positive return from the break is gone by the new year. All things considered I'd take another week off, can loosen the legs v Rangers and face Killie twice having strengthened the squad. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil86 Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Aye, I must admit I hadn't looked at the fixtures beyond Friday. That's fair enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welldaft Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 (edited) Hope the game goes ahead. These canx games could f**k up our season as well as costing a lot of money ! I myself will be seeking a refund for 3x tickets for the St Mirren game I bought for friends. We had two winnable home games to get us back on track. Of course we could lose one or both but this stop start season could backfire. This (Killie) game is cancelled and we have Rangers away which will no doubt add to our recent woeful record. Confident the game will go ahead. I saw the damage (via Twitter) and yes some was in parts of the stadium where fans would be, but others such as the South stand gym and under stands has little bearing on supporters. Anyone that hopes January will bring a few signings and we will be prime Argentina is being a little deluded. We might improve for sure but get the games on. We have had 6 weeks away now….

Kapowzer Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 I understand the club paid quite a bit about 10 years ago to add plenty of stopcocks to the plumbing throughout the stadium to isolate and make what happened in the past week a thing of the past. I also know who did it and he is/was a bum. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swello Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 We can all get a bit misty-eyed about Fir Park - me more than anyone - but despite the club spending a lot of money doing it up in the summer (and literally millions on the pitch over the past decade to bring it to the top standard), it can't escape anyone's notice that it was our ground alone in the top flight that ended up with pipework that looked like swiss cheese. This is the sort of stuff we need to take into account when new stadium discussions come up and we don't fancy a move to a "lego stadium" Hope the game makes it on Friday for lots of reasons... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busta Nut Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 It also seems massively illogical to switch the game around due to the Logistics of things like policing, hospitality etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ours was called off due to the pitch and unspecified 'stadium damage'. I suspect the stadium damage was a convenient excuse but you never know 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
