KMbud1877 reacted to faraway saint in Donald TrumpOuch from our Australian brothers.....
This Australian's reply to Trump's rant about “NATO not being there for America” is perfect.
"Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban in Afghanistan thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
'NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your f----- mouth."

Oh take me back to Love Street, back to my happy place
back to the ground of glory, those golden days of grace
where every cheer was thunder, where every game had thrills
and heroes lit the terraces with passion pride and skill
Take me to the north bank, to hear that wondrous roar
ten thousand voices rising loudly, and twenty thousand more
the saints go marching in would echo strong and long
a sea of black and white as one, united in their song
Take me back to 1980 Anglo Scottish cup in hand
five past Bristol City, pride was sweeping through the land
with Jackie Copland leading, standing tall and proud
a captain of true courage, saluted by the Paisley crowd
And further back to 1926 when history was first made
the Scottish cup to Love Street came and legends were displayed
with Bryceland’s strength and Lapsley’s class and Gemmell’s helping hand
they carved their names in silver bright, the pride of Saint’s great stand
And more glory Scottish cup days, when dreams would come alive
59 and 87 the Saints would still survive
Through battles fought with heart and soul through grit and sheer belief
they brought the silver home again to joy beyond relief
The legends grace my memory, their names still shining bright
like Aber, McGarvey and Stark on those electric nights
from Bryceland through to modern days, their spirit’s still the same
a tapestry of glory years that built the Saint’s great name
Do take me back to Love Street where my heart will always stay
through every high and heartbeat, it never fades away
for though the years have moved us on, those memories remain
in Paisley’s soul, forever proud the Saints will rise again.

KMbud1877 reacted to Swiss_Saint in Falkirk v St Mirren, Sat 1st AugI don't get where this comes from, players develop better with game time, time against better teams develops them faster. Pressure to be top 6 meant Robinson had to go with tried and tested and I would never knock him as he gave us a great ride, one of the many ups I have witnessed, sadly more downs over time. I hope the new approach yields 2 bonuses, the first being players we can sell for more but the second is more attractive football as the youngsters we are bringing through have less fear, lots of energy and alot of skill
Mooney was picked up by Arsenal who are a little better than us based on how he was developing, Taylor was one of our better midfielders on Sunday, Sutherland was picked up by Wolves who were EPL at the time. So some make the grade others don't but if we don't play them and give them good experience they have no hope of developing. The youngsters who played on Sunday were no worse than our established players as everyone was making bad passes and they were not the ones that gave away a soft penalty the ref managed that all by himself. We had already won the group and all we lost was the seeding (and unfortunately got us Rangers) so no better match to blood them in v an aggressive and physical Dunfermline.
As for the others Penman still here and developing, Henderson played SPL and Championship (we just got beat by a team from there) for Ross county (plus I liked his direct play and willingness to take on a player more than I did McMenamin). Jamieson I will give you, lots of huff and puff but not as good.

KMbud1877 reacted to faraway saint in World Cup 2026I've just watched him, Infantino, say football NEEDS more investment. 😂😂😂
Football NEEDS? I would suggest football is doing pretty damn good as it is without becoming a cash cow for investors with no interest in the game.

KMbud1877 got a reaction from faraway saint in World Cup 2026One of the things he said that there would be money to raise salaries. Not saying they do not deserve a pay rise but again can't help thinking it's bribery and corruption again
-
KMbud1877 got a reaction from faraway saint in World Cup 2026Infantino has just said that the proposal is only the beginning of a consultation process, surely consultation processes do not come with ultimatums of losing money if you do not agree.
-
KMbud1877 got a reaction from faraway saint in World Cup 2026Infantino is an embarrassment to world football, right from the fake peace award to that Trump ar$e kissing episode at the final. The world cup had Trump written all over it

KMbud1877 reacted to Cookie Monster in Season Review 2021/22I can recommend Peroni for pain relief. [emoji482]
That's my review for this season. [emoji16]

KMbud1877 reacted to Rascal in Season Review 2021/22This has been a strange season. Three separate battles going on. The usual big two slugging it out. Both look to have improved on the previous season. The middle is where the action has been intense with only Hearts secure in third place. Saint Mirren, despite a change of manager mid season,touched 4th place briefly during a game. The fact that only the top three sides had a positive goal difference must say something about the standard of defending in the league. The bottom two probably deserve to be where they have finished but things could have gone differently very easily for teams up to 4th place just before the split. Maybe not a classic season but full of interest and this has continued into the playoffs. One game to go for the bottom six. Can’t wait for next season.

KMbud1877 reacted to ALBIONSAINT in How much longer do we give the managerSorry KMBud but couldn’t resist 😂
-
KMbud1877 got a reaction from ALBIONSAINT in How much longer do we give the managerWOW! You really need to give this up.
Cos I was getting grief about aliases and publishing my name I checked out a couple of profiles to see if their names were on it, that's all. So don't get on an ego trip that I am one bit interested in you whatsoever.
You started all this shit and you could be the big man and stop it.
I'm not a troll, I just don't take crap off anyone.l

KMbud1877 reacted to bigjerseybuddie in How much longer do we give the managerRobinson showed on Saturday that he has a willingness to change formation and personnel and it worked. Credit to him for that.
Goodwin was very stubborn in that sense.
Like many others I have been very critical of his style and the content of his interviews but I haven’t got a clue whether or not he is a good coach or what his man management skills are like.
Anyone who can make Main play like he did on Saturday must have something about him.
-
KMbud1877 reacted to Hunterian in How much longer do we give the managerI’ve just arrived at B&W Army so hello.
I couldn’t agree with you more. From the start of the game we were playing as if it meant something.
Kiltie in a role he enjoys but , to me, it was Grieve and Main that worked an incredible shift. It’s probably Main’s best 90 minutes in the jersey.
We’re just about safe and this buys valuable time for Robbo.
All the previous chatter about Goodwin is of interest but he didn’t really achieve anything with us. Don’t get me wrong, our winning run in 2022 was great.
Draws have been our downfall and most of those have been on his watch.
