Dandy McLean 114 #1 Posted 8 February Who do we want to win tomorrow? A win for that lot across the road may be a huge confidence loss for St Mirren, but keeps Utd in the cup. As much as it grieves me I think I want Utd to win for the greater good as it keeps The Saints losing run going. 1 Top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hard question Dandy....it's like asking " do you want yer ba's nailed to yer coffee table " or do you want a bit of rusty barbed wire shoved up yer a**e ? .....neither are a very attractive proposition so I'll sit on the fence on this one . 8 1 Top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CW 90+3 02/05/16 2,695 #4 Posted 8 February If it finishes 10-0 St Mirren, my only disappointment would be that it hadn't finished 11-0. Is this a serious question? (with all due respect) 4 1 5 Top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SM1893 483 #7 Posted 8 February This is an interesting one. On one hand, I love to see Utd get beat at all times, but a Saints win might just lift them and spur them on to put a couple of results together. What's more interesting is that this is probably the best Utd team they've put together since going down to the Fundesliga and they are going well at the moment, with many of my DAB mates saying they'll give St Mirren 3/4. If Utd get beat, then this will show them how far way they really are from being a SP side, as St Mirren are beautifully turgid. I think that Utd losing and seeing them potentially realise they are off the pace of the big league will be more satisfying than St Mirren maintaining their losing run. St Mirren win. As if it was ever in doubt, just wanted to drag it out and fill a few minutes of my existence. 1 2 Top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thepole 323 #11 Posted 8 February I used to worry about United until they were knocked out the cup as the had a habit of reaching the latter stages. Nowadays they are a Championship side and regardless of whether they win tomorrow they will get papped out eventually so I'm not worried. So to answer your question St Mirren every minute of everyday of the week please 1 Top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Double Blue 321 #16 Posted 8 February St Mirren winning means they have another competition to consider and more games to cram in with potential injuries, plus it shuts the dayglo brigade up. Win/win. 2 Top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1stevie 110 #17 Posted 8 February I'd prefer a draw. Another game both would have to play with risk of injuries (not career threatening) / suspensions. Anything that will cause both to struggle with league form would be a bonus. 1 1 Top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Win/win. That’s a brilliant point. I’ve come to my senses. St Mirren win. My apologies for even considering wanting them to get a result. I’m utterly ashamed. 2 Top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dondeh 993 #21 Posted 8 February A draw and then a St Midden win after replay and penalties would be ideal. Doesn't matter who they are playing right now. The more games St Midden play the better.

Chomp my root 4,000 #23 Posted 8 February After reviewing all the available data (well reading the thread) and weighing up the pro's and con's.... I'm for a draw with both teams getting reds and some knocks. After a brutal replay with more reds and knocks, St. M to go through on pens. 1 Top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gedee 2,567 #24 Posted 8 February Seeing a reminder of this game earlier in the day, the same thought went through my mind. Since then, I've kept changing my mind (for the reasons as above)...I've now convinced myself. I want the "ither lot" to get hammered. But if it goes the other way, I'll have a change of mind & convince myself that, subconsciously, that is the result I really wanted...It's a win-win situation.
