    Very much, you'd need to be zipped up the back not to have noticed it

    It's St Mirren FFS. Why would they get treated better than any other team. Its laughable. Heard it all now.

    I'm referring more to the media darling aspect, if you listen to the radio or read the media it's obvious they are the favoured team to be promoted, unless you are blind, deaf, or zipped up the back

    There is also no question had that game yesterday involved Celtic or The Rangers a big fuss would have been made out of it

    Sounds like the first line of a fitba chant, followed up by what the hell do we care

    Media makes massive difference.

    Picture the scene - Celtic player goes down in the box against United. Penalty given. United man sent off. 3 game suspension.
    Media: ‘seen them given’ ‘defender should know better than to dive in’

    United player goes down in the box. Would penalty be given by referee scared of old firm / media reaction? Irrespective it would be in media ‘any kind of dive is unacceptable’ ‘suspend united man for diving!’

    Little bit of exaggeration but not that much.

    It’s a game of fine margins but the self perpetuatuing cycle of the old firm getting decisions, winning matches, getting support and getting all the money going - relies on the media helping it all along

    You're using the old firm as your example there. Why not new media darlings St Mirren?

    Any west coast club is going to be favoured by the west coast media, plus we seem to be pretty unpopular for Sevcos death and sacking Jackie. Not saying the abandonment is anything to do with that though.
    At the end of the day we need to do our talking on the pitch.
