DC92 Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 41 minutes ago, Ric said: I think this game showed what we all knew all along, we are a better team than Hearts and they need to rely on Shankland just to get themselves a point. Them using the same song for one of their players as the song used by us for a player that doomed them to relegation shows how much we live rent free in their heads. Actually it showed us we are a better team than St Mirren without James Scott. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topcat(The most tip top) Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 St Mirren were 6th last season, 5th this season If we extrapolate from this they'll be champions in 2028, Champions League winners by 2030, Best of breed at Crufts by 2033, Oscar for best picture 2036 and intergalactic domination by 2040 And I for one welcome etc... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic IMO - I had intergalactic domination down for 2042. Might need to check with Tony Fitzpatrick - after all, he got the top 6 and Europe bits right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insert Amusing Pseudonym Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 I quite liked Beaton's refereeing last night. Could have easily booked 5 or 6 players but just got on with it and realised it was just a competitive game without a bad tackle in it. The lack of jeopardy for both teams probably helped but would be good to see that being the norm tbh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure what happened with the pushing and shoving between Olusanya and Devlin (?) from the corner, seemed to get a bit heated for a minute. I thought Beaton dealt with that well too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowt major, olusanya tried to get in front of the goalie and Devlin and him were jostling. Olusanya didn't want to leave it at that but it was all pretty tame 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it too late to get included in a goal of the season shortlist? Yep. Agree it was meant. He looks back expectantly and even clenches his fist in celebration before it hits the net. Noone else on the pitch thinks it's a shot, but it is IMO. Probably too late for goal of the season, but I think there are better 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pozbaird Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 (edited) Ach, it was a magnificent game with four magnificent goals, a solid refereeing performance, no major VAR tomfoolery, an honourable draw between two of Scotland’s finest European participants and for one brief moment, we can hug our Jambo brethren* in a shared moment of joy at a job well done this season. *Obika, Hampden 2013, Hampden 1987, Fir Park 2009/10….

I don’t give a flying fcuk if this comes over as ‘aye yer auld da’ or not - but those in the ‘singing’ section of the West Stand are not some sort of uber-fans, and after they get the players celebrating right in front of them for quite a while, the rest of us get them leading a pitch invasion and no chance to show our appreciation. Fcuking group shot in the goalmouth eh? Aye. Thanks for fcuk all.

I was prepared to believe that James Scott scored a goal, but you're taking it too far if you are trying to say John Beaton had a good game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
