Anti St Mirren/pro Dundee conspiracy alert...

Awful.

Nope. Unless you can highlight a pattern of decisions going against St Mirren

Don’t bother. I’ve plenty of St Mirren mates who can name them chapter and verse

One thing this decision does highlight is the flaw in the appeal system. I think everyone would agree both his challenges were stick on yellows? Now if the referee had done the right thing and downgraded the straight Red to a yellow he would be unable to challenge his suspension but you can appeal a straight Red. I don’t know the answer to this but does it mean if he wins appeal he can play in their next game or would he be suspended due to it being a second yellow = Red?

Watching Open Goal from yesterday and Si Ferry just announced the reason for Slaneys absence from the last few shows is the sudden death of his mother.

Those who watch the show regularly will know slaney comes from a very close knit loving family. Wishing him nothing but the best at this time and hope to see him back on screen in the not too distant future

RIP Mrs Slane

Morton beat Motherwell in the Scottish Cup to reach the last 8.

Morton beat Motherwell in the Scottish Cup to reach the last 8.

That was their third Cup meeting in the last four seasons, with Motherwell winning the previous two AET and on penalties. Their luck ran out.

Found this interesting too. The old firm stats are embarrassing.

We have McCausland who has come through our academy starting every game!

First choice left back is Under 23

Raskin under 23

Diomande under 23

Cortes under 23

Fabio silva under 23

Dujon Sterling under 23

There’s probably more but that’s near enough half our first team squad under 23.

I realise the stats above are regarding Scottish players but I’ve no interest in a player’s nationality, race, religion etc. Just if they are good enough.

Both your centre backs came through at the Old Firm. Many will go on too have decent careers

Nah, your teams forced their 'B' team into the lowland league particularly for a pathway to the first team, still won't do it. Any young Scottish player who sticks out at other clubs end up being signed be either and their career stagnates and stutters until they move on again, with very few exceptions.

Anyway, I see Mr Collum came to Rangers rescue yet again last night, needing his help to beat Ayrshire's 6th best club. Always the same...The A*r players should have walked off!!
