And Celtic 6-2 up at Half Time in Extra Time and home and hosed. 
 

As much as I despise Celtic I’m happy with that. If St.Mirren had won today they would have been all but guaranteed to win the Scottish Cup and the mere thought of them doing a Cup double would have been utterly sickening. I genuinely think I would have chucked football altogether if that had happened but thankfully it won’t now.

Only good thing about Celtic winning for me is 5th is guaranteed Europe should they win it

Much better to finish 4th of course and hopefully will do

Alan Campbell looked completely lost today as well. Mandron equalises.

Campbell been lost for quite some time, unfortunately. His form dropped off a cliff and he's struggled to regain it.

re Campbell.   In last couple of seasons he's parachuted in mid season.   I don't think he had pre season or game time in either of those seasons prior to joining Utd or StMirren. Under those circumstances very difficult to hit the ground running due to lack of game time etc. 

If we were to lose Watt or Fadigner at end of season I wouldn't be against having him back at FP. With a full pre season behind him I think he'd do a decent job and some of the ugly work we've been missing. 

Re former Motherwell boys I was thinking similar of DT back at FP. Assuming we sell Just/Slattery moving on having someone of DTs style would fit nicely.

No way could we afford DT's wages. I believe he wants to return at some point

If you believe the man himself, the reason Campbell parachuted in this mid-season is because he had multiple offers from England and Europe over the summer, but wanted to wait for the right one.

Rather than join, say, a Scottish Championship side to get some match fitness at the start of the season, he opted for no game time.

I like the guy, but something has gone seriously wrong and if Robbo couldn't help him at St Mirren he is a very long way from returning to form.

You wonder what's next for Turnbull. If he's only been getting 20 or 30 mins most weeks in League 1, will stepping up to the Championship do for him what Luton being promoted to the Premiership did for Campbell?

I love Wee Al, but regardless of his fitness, he doesnt fit our signing model any more.

We want younger guys we can develop and sell on for a profit. Given he has already been away and done that, I dont think thats happening for him again.

I guess you could argue that he would fit the McGinn / O'Donnell mould of experienced guys who get the club, but both of them are gonna be here next season.

Do we really need another one?
