When was the last time it was lower? The 70’s at Love St? I remember early 70's we had not much more than 1,00 fans going into Love Street. We have a fickle support as today fact . The die hards turned up today around 1,500 these are the real die hards. Always laugh when reading Motherwell are same size as Saints. Motherwell have a bigger support and are more successful than St Mirren. Ross Country. ICT , Hamilton are now around Saints size. Motherwell, Dundee United, are all much more successful than Saints. Give Robinson time he can take us more successful. Sadly fickle Saints fans will get him sacked and so it will go on and on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope simelar fan base to Motherwell who have been much better than us in the premier league. Hamilton can’t get 1500 at league games, Caley will be 2500 and county around 3500 but they do have an excellent manager and chairman. We will grow the support if we actually win some games at home. Our home form hasn’t been good for years now. As for the team it’s well short and if this is it in terms of recruitment then I do feel it’ll be very difficult to see us having a decent season.

We are one of the smallest clubs in the league . But you and me and every supporter have a BIG heart ❤. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walter Mitty was right more often. It's been in thee press Davis was offerd a deal with Saints but Rangers offerd a new contract. So yes you were WRONG not unusual right lol. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GAD Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 5 hours ago, ZingaliMan said: No. Jeez oh I pass on what I heard. You ever feel your detached from the club you have supported since 1967 . For what it's worth Kibble for me is a good thing can save us a fortune in wages bringing in Kibble maintance staff and staff to run the club which can only be a good thing in my book. Savings can go to player budget. As a fan that can only be a good thing in my book. Chairman is a banker so missing 1.2 million from the books seems strange. Stewart Gilmour is a buddie through and through if you know him. Let's see how it plays out. Sorry if my post made you feel detached from the club, but you have to admit, you haven't got a very good record when it comes to these big itk "exclusives" of yours. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kempes Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 Good to get a badly needed win yesterday, even if it was a dead rubber against a team from two leagues below us. Ayunga was unlucky not to get a hat-trick and he’ll surely score more than Obika did as he seems able to take chances in the six-yard box. Keanu looks a player. An impressive debut for someone who has had a hectic week. Reminded me of Tim Cahill with his enthusiasm and all-action style. He will be a big asset this season. Strain is getting better with every game, so we will have plenty of options on the right. The academy lads showed up well too. Slight concern is the tendency to lose goals to breakaways, this really needs to be addressed asap. It did look as though their goal was offside though, so maybe VAR will help. Shout out to Tait for his assist for the third goal, who needs Tanser! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuart Gilmour pushing to find out where the money went. Quite a lot of bad feelings towards Kibble most staff at the club have been replaced with Kibble staff including the ball boys/girls. Was told this at the game from an ex-chairman not Gilmour. Staff......incuding ball boys . Do you even think about these things when you type ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With both Main and Brophy to come back into contention Lewis will drop even further down the pecking order. And best of luck to Clyde. Quite suprised he never got off bench espicially yesterday or away to Cowden.. Pace to burn and eye for a goal Contributed plenty to our cause last two loans and can understand he maybe wants to try and stay involved in 1st team squad but even more game time will bring him on im certain All the best 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robinson likes to have plenty of options given it’s early in the season. We need to see how he gets on against premiership opposition if called upon. It’s only fair in my opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 (edited) It’s been a great St Mirren close season. Ticks every box - shite performances in the League Cup? Check. ‘Old Firm run rule over St Mirren starlet’? Check. Run out of the new kit after two minutes and there’s ‘more coming soon’? Check. New signings that we haven’t a clue about? Check. 4-4-2, 5-3-2 or 4-3-3, or indeed let’s try 2-1-3-4? Check. Internal politics? SMiSA ‘I heard from a mate’? Kibble this, Kibble that, Kibble the other? Friction between goodness knows who within (and indeed without) the hallowed walls of FeegieField? Check. Wouldn’t be the same without it. I feel happy that we have put in a good, solid, normal, fcuked-in-the-head St Mirren pre-season. Bring it on. Top 6 here we come. I’m ready… #Our town. #Our team. #Our away kit even in games we don’t need it. Edited July 24, 2022 by pozbaird 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Main and Brophy both out I expected we’d see plenty of Jamieson, but we hardly seen any of him. If he can’t get minutes in those kind of games he’s not going to get any in the league and when there’s more competition for places.Robinson must not fancy him and I expect him to leave the club soon. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buttocks Brown Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 Going back years and years, I've been under the impression that the Gilmour / Scott relationship is not particularly good. I assumed that was a big reason why Stewart has been taking potshots at the running of the club. SG: saved us from Brearley, plenty of top flight football and the League Cup win but it was stale at the end: nothing was happening off the park and the appointments of Craig and Rae were significant misjudgements. I think it would be fair to say that Gordon Scott and his board pushed the club forward significantly after they took over in 2016. That is perhaps sticking in the throat a bit. Men and their egos.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may have made this up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
