Disco30 Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 How people can take pyros and bangers into games and try to claim it adds to the atmosphere baffles me. Out of the many hundreds of pyros I've seen at Celtic games only 1 has really looked remotely decent. Idiotic wee neds who shouldn't be allowed out their parents house never mind going to football matches. As for the game was a typical performance under Lennon , job done but underwhelming. Brown and nazon most likely will be receiving letters from the compliance officer. Also hope timo weah gets more game time in the last 6 league games boys going to be a top drawer player in the next few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why on earth would you not let stands behind the goals not let the club generate much needed money ? Came out the ground after the game with not a hint of trouble. Personally I have no problem filling both stands with Celtic fans it pulled in around £86,400. Maybe if you were on the board you would get it. Not a classic game last night but a good night was had. Crowd was lower than it was on Saturday. More than 2,000 Saints fans who were there v Dundee decided NOT to come to the match last night. EIGHT season ticket holders near me didn’t turn up; they don’t come for games against The Rangers either. It really is not pleasant when the OF come to town, and going to last night’s game I said if we do get relegated, not having those visits is something I certainly won’t miss.

Just had a look, your highest attendance and 3rd highest attendance of the season was against Celtic. Saturday was an exception as the game was so vital, had it not been the Celtic games would remain your 2 highest attendances of the season and your highest money spinner. I'm from Paisley, have many St Mirren supporting friends and none of them miss this game due to lack of pleasantness! I think they enjoy the change in atmosphere and the chance of the shock win such as when you pumped us a few years back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 Their record attendance at the stadium was against Killie. We are the box office money spinners for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm older it really does not bother me. The vast majority are well behaved I stood outside the ground for a wee while after the game. I remember thinking everything was very orderly. Saints and Celtic fans passing each other as it should be. Also seen a good few Celtic fans in the main stand wearing no colours clapping their team off. Football is very tribal at times we could do with taking a leaf out of ruby fans. The worst is Rangers not all their fans but the have a larger portion of twats than any other club.

Bobby_F Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 On the game, or rather the Saints players who got a run out for the first time in ages.... Kellerman I think struggled quite badly. Cooke I thought was excellent when we managed to get the ball forward (which wasn’t often). Corbu did okay, but can see why he’s not getting a regular start. Thought MacPherson had his best game for us; worried when I saw him in the line up given but he made some great tackles and played some decent passes. Of those, I think Cooke has done enough to earn a start on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think we’ll have an option to start Nazon. Mind you, they might let him off otherwise they’d need to cite Brown too. In the Hearts v Celtic game at the start of the season Naismith stamped on a Celtic player - but was let off probably because in the same game Brown elbowed him.

Shat it for a few seconds and thats about it. Folk actually let them off in the crowd as well with no real incident. Not a fan of them but no idea why the keepers went down like that.

This could be my post from a decade ago. Although the overall crowd goes up playing Celtic/Rangers the home crowd goes down as many don't want to listen to their pish. I've said for a while now that winning the Championship comes with a horrible prize. The club financially needs to be in the topflight and crowd wise probably should be but it's fucking shite 90% of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morelos also got away with the stamp on Ralston in December but Brown's stamp on a St Mirren player last night plus celebrating to much on Sunday will see a few games out.

You're right RPHG that because it was Dundee and such an important game there were more Saints fans there. We've been averaging just over 4,000 home fans - on Saturday we had around a thousand more, last night we had a thousand less. Obviously doesn't bother everyone, but that's about 25% of our home support - many who've already paid for the game - deciding they just don't want everything that goes along with games v the OF. I'm sure Saints aren't alone when it comes to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
