mizer Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 ST Johnstone groundstaff are pulling out all the stops to ensure it’s game on for Aberdeen’s visit to Perth on Saturday. “It’s disappointing that the Forfar game is off again but we were expecting the news and at least we got an early decision,†said McInnes. “Now all our focus and preparation is geared towards Aberdeen this weekend. Hopefully we’ll get our first game since Boxing Day. “They will have played two games while we have been inactive so we have to make sure our training is geared towards sharpness and having a competitive edge. “Hopefully we will see the players taking out their frustration at being without a game on Aberdeen. “It seems an eternity since we last played so we are looking forward to their visit. “There is a real determination here to get the game on. “Hopefully the weather will be kind to us. Countless tons of snow have to be moved from the McDiarmid surface and surroundings over the next few days. Sustained sub-zero temperatures have taken their toll on the stadium and workmen are tackling burst pipes and frozen areas. Managing director Stewart Duff said: “We are doing our very best to get the Aberdeen game on. We want this match to go ahead. “The forecast suggests daytime temperatures above freezing so hopefully that gives us a helping hand. “There is a lot of work involved in the stands and we are doing everything we can to clear the car park and surrounding areas. “Unfortunately, the Muirton Suite will be out of action if the game does go ahead and we apologise to fans who will be inconvenienced. Pipes burst and flooded the suite.†In/Oot: In Prematch: Train then pub in toon Match: In a seat trying to keep warm Postmatch: A few beers with the guys then off to a party Prediction: 1-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpie Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 The Foundry is still open. Do you still have my number? I'm meeting Scotty and a few Saints fans pre match but we should try and meet up. Could easy head across to the Foundry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jute Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 The Foundry is still open. Do you still have my number? I'm meeting Scotty and a few Saints fans pre match but we should try and meet up. Could easy head across to the Foundry. I have Scotty's number if I do not have yours. He mentioned that you were going to the game when I spoke to him at the game on Tuesday. Will give you a shout when we get to Perth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
