Just watching Hamilton v St Mirren on Alba and it looks like the Hamilton Fans, who are occupying only the Main Stand are outnumbered, not just by the St Mirren Fans,...


...but by the Fans that are painted on the Advertising posters behind the other goal!

Can't believe that a team with Imrie and MacKinnon in it could beat any premier league team, let alone 3 - 0.

St Mirren must be rank rotten.

Hamilton are incredible.

Unsure if Canning would be successful at a bigger club but he's keeping them up year after year

Some run

They're here on merit but I hope they gtf, a blight on the SPFL.

Proof that you don't need fans to be successful.

Canning must surely be considered for bigger jobs now.

Beuzy on the bench means I'll always want them to do well when not up against us. Also Keatings.

I actually think it's a shame they can't attract more people than that, considering they've been in the premier league for five years running, against all odds.

Really? Canning always comes across as a complete moron. They tried to kick us off the pitch there last season. Horrible plastic pitch, and no fans. I wish them, and Livingston, nothing but relegation and obscurity for decades.

Me too. Sooner Hamilton and Livingston are out this division the better

We know fine well where 99% of all Hamilton residents' loyalties lie.

Exactly this and all credit to the thousand or so who turn up to support them at home rather than paying their dosh to the two strapping whores along the road (I don't mean Motherwell and Albion Rovers).

You can't mean Airdrie either. That's more a dirty wee stop out.

Aren't they just! - dropped their pants for Clydebank, then killed them mid-coitus. Don't know how they ever got away with that.

Very tough gig for small clubs like Hamilton and St Mirren (plus a number of others) being so close to Glasgow. They survive on a pittance and their fans don't get much in return. Credit to those who keep such clubs afloat by supporting their local team.

Not a fan of Hamilton or Canning tbf. I’m still traumatised by the size and speed of Canning’s turning circle when he was at Hibs.

Aye, a bit hard to have sympathy for Clydebank when you know the back story.


Back to Hamilton...

I wonder how many supporters buses leave the town every weekend to go to Celtc or The Rangers games.

I don’t particular like Hamilton but I’ve nothing less than respect for those that turn out for their local team, especially considering how many from Hamilton ‘support’ either Celtic or Rangers

Lordy - well remembered. I have no memory of him playing for us, but a Google shows you're right: a dozen games ten years ago before Bamba was signed - but I can't remember any of them. He was mince, I take it..?

They are, and have been, the most embarrassing support in the top flight, support size wise. It really does ponder the question how they can survive so long in top flight football with such a rotten support.

Would say Gretna had the worst ever home support.

‘Slow and lumbering’ about sums his performance at Hibs imho. Fine in the air but useless with anyone running at him.
