Thread: St Johnstone

  1. #1

    St Johnstone

    2nd most successful Scottish club in the last decade. All the so called big Scottish clubs, like ourselves, should be utterly embarrassed by that.

    I'm not embarrassed and, even this weekend, I'd still rather be a Hibee.

    This logic means arsenal have been more successful than Liverpool over the last decade, Wigan have been as successful as Leicester, Swansea and Birmingham are in the top 10 most successful clubs.

    Not embarrassed. They won a cup because they deserved to. Good on them.

    Not embarrassed at all. Couldn't actually care less. Shame their 2k fans didn't get to see it today. Know who I'd rather support.

    I won’t be embarrassed when we are playing big teams on Thursday nights next season. If anything I’ll be proud.

    As much as I was raging we got beat, and would’ve loved us to win them, what’s the point this year? Can’t be there, can’t celebrate other than in the house on your own, would be a total shadow of previous cup wins.

    Huge congratulations to St Johnstone. The best team over the course of the competition.

    What's the point of winning a major trophy? Did you just ask that?

    Wouldn’t say embarrassed is the right word but watching Liam Craig blindly hook balls over his shoulder all game then pick up a winners medal left me scunnered.

    Wotherspoon obviously has a bit of talent but doubt he’d be anywhere near out team. Callum Booth never good enough and rightly let go.

    A rare opportunity at a trophy blown by not turning up for the semi.

    Not from a clubs point of view obviously. As a fan this year if given the choice it would’ve been European football every day with the chance of travelling next season.

    Whilst I’m not embarrassed you have to wonder why a club with what maybe 2/3k season ticket holders can win as many trophies in the last 20 years. Hibs fans pump way more money into our club so you’ve got to ask whether we should expect more!

    St Johnstone have an excellent manager and team just now. They all work hard for each other. and it’s easy to see why they achieved this success.

    Well done to them I'm happy they won today but our record could be a lot better. We need to improve on this.

    But that isn't the choice though is it. I'm a fan (who goes when the stadium is open) but I would love to win a BCD cup. No brainer.

    We would all love to win the cup but it wouldn’t be a great experience, due to the points i make. Compare and contrast to 2007 and 2016 and it wouldn’t feel like a cup win at all. It would go in the record books but it’s not one we’d be telling the kids about in 20 years time.

    I guess the point I’m making is I’m not going to lose sleep over losing this years semi and the Saints winning the cup when I’m not actually there in person, the highs and the lows just don’t feel the same as when you are there week in week out.

    What’s our record against them the last 20 years?

    So if we'd won it you wouldn't be happy? 😂

    Ah right. If this thread thread is about how you feel then fair enough. It it's about the Club I would prefer to win it.

    The OP mentioned he was utterly embarrassed about St Johnstone winning it to move onto 2 trophies. I can’t say I share that view.

    Would rather win it with or without fans any year

    An eighth day in the week has been created for Hearts matches as a seven day week just simply isnt big enough to accomodate them

    I’d have been delighted, as I’ve said. It wouldn’t have had anywhere near the same high however. Just like losing in it had nowhere near the same low.

    Semi and Finals

    I agree to an extent but I remain hugely frustrated that we messed up a great opportunity to win an all too rare trophy.
