Edinburgh daily that will be lucky to mention Saints outside of the Old
Firm meetings this season. Their WWW site is
here
April 15th - Ratings for the semi-final mention Mensing as having
scored the goal. Pity it was Hardie then?
March 18th- Airdrie win apparently halted a run of "no league
wins in 12 for Saints" - funny I thought it was just no away league
wins?
March 11th- Partick report say penalty handball claim came from a
Peaso cross - nope it was Mensing
January 27th- Page 10 of weekend sport 27/01/07 a win over their
nearest challengers in Perth would open up a 15-point gap with the Raydale
side holding a game in hand - thanks to gary.munro@blueyonder.co.uk
for that one
November 9th- Report on the Ibrox win said it was only the 2nd
time we'd beaten Rangers in 35 years -wrong there were two other wins at
McD.
October 15th- Report of Gretna draw has Sheerin crossing for the
2nd goal - nope it was Goran.
Falsehood League Standings
A bastion of professional journalism as shown below. Managed 2nd place
in 1996-97 but walked away with the title
in 1997-98 before reverting to 2nd in
1998-99 and winning it again in
1999-2000 and 2000-01.
Their WWW site is here.
January 2nd-Report of McInnes signing has it down as 2 years -
wrong it's only 6 months.
November 7th- In the pullout the Punter, It said Queen of the
South recored their 1st league win against St Johnstone when we beat them
5-0
Falsehood League Standings
My daily read so expect a few entries here. Especially as they tend to
give some coverage to the non-OF teams. Excludes any drivel written by
Bill Leckie who has his own category. Won the
title in 2001-02 and 2004-05
September 13th- Report of Morton cup tie said Simon Mensing twice
put us in the lead - nope the 2nd was an equaliser.
Falsehood League Standings
Also includes the BBC On-line service at news.bbc.co.uk
March 17th- "Philip" Morais??????
February 3rd- Highlights of the Falkirk cup win said McInnes was
our skipper - wrong
September 11th- Preview of Morton cup tie has Willie Miller
unavailable!! As apparently no doubt is Willie McLaren!
September 9th- First of the season from the Partick report which
said that Scott Milne scored two for us. Savo will be pleased.
Falsehood League Standings
Sun columnist and reporter with a dodgy quiff and a
wonderful fetish about Barbour jackets. Thinks of himself as the champion
of the underdog but still annoying. Still he pisses off the OF so we can't
complain too much.
Falsehood League Standings
Not a regular read but always good for some errors.
Falsehood League Standings
Another honest and fair paper (aye right). Excludes the page of McNee
rants - he has his own section (see here).
April 15th- "That 's a fact in a previous semi-final Saints
held Rangers 0-0 at Hamphen in April 1989. The Ibrox men were then 4-0
replay winners". But the match was played at Parkhead. Thanks to
gary.munro@blueyonder.co.uk
Falsehood League Standings
Reasonable good coverage given that its a Scumdee Daily. Their WWW site
is here
with the Tele at www.eveningtelegraph.co.uk
Falsehood League Standings
Old Firm are Scottish Football so the rest don't matter - as you might
guess. Winners in 2003-04
April 8th- Gretna report mentions "Frenchman" Filipe
Morais!!!!.
March 11th- Partick report says we won at home in September and
away in November - other way round so another 2 points.
October 30th- Two howlers from the Ross County report - firstly it
was Rustybitz not Mensing that cleared Burke's shot off the line. And
secondly Cuthbert is not the County keeper so he won't save any shot from
Henry.
Falsehood League Standings
The Dundee radio station, famed for Dick Donnelly - don't take
it seriously
Falsehood League Standings
Again, don't expect too much here - Gordon Bannerman usually knows what
he's talking about, even if the editor doesn't. Their WWW site is
here
Falsehood League Standings
Frightening how little they know outside the OF Their WWW site is
www.scotprem.com
Falsehood League Standings

Includes the on-line version.

Aberdeen-based daily with some good coverage of the East Coast teams.
Falsehood League Standings

last season - see here
for details.
Falsehood League Standings
Mainly Radio Scotland. Excluding Chic the Pric (see here)
but including On/Off The Ball and the related websites.
Falsehood League Standings
"Official" WWW site of the Scottish Footbal League. Good for
commentaries but some interesting things to say about Saints. Located
here.
Falsehood League Standings

The STV show with Jim "hes a right" Delahunt is now legendary
for it's camcorder footage which demonstrates just how professional a
setup they have. 1998-99 champions.
Falsehood League Standings
The Guardian version of Soccernet as found at
http://www.footballunlimited.co.uk
Falsehood League Standings
STV Sports Editor, ex-Sunday Mail Columnist and the nearest we've got
to a Scottish Jimmy Hill. Now writing for the News Of The World although
with his obsession with Man Utd there is little Scottish content any
more!!!!
Falsehood League Standings
Satellite TV and Teletext for the masses - known to come to McDiarmid
when a defeat is in the air. Mind you we're not in the SPL so expect
complete ignorance of Saints
Falsehood League Standings
Ibrox's most famous St. Mirren fan and living proof that you need
fuck-all knowledge to be a journo.
Falsehood League Standings
Saintees everywhere's favourite ex-Scotsman journalist. Amazing tunnel
vision since based in Embra he seems incapable of dealing with anything
other than the Wegie Unwashed. New for this year since hes bound to cover
some Saints games. Now writing for the Sunday Mason as the replacement for
McNee (some honour eh). This man is the MOST LOATHED journalist
amongst Saints fans.
Falsehood League Standings
Find them at http://www.thetimes.co.uk.
Sunday Times coverage is probably best for falsehoods.
Falsehood League Standings
Not a regular read and probably qualifies for a discount given that its
Manchester based but what the hell. Their WWW site is
here
Falsehood League Standings
As found at
http://www.sporting-life.com/soccer/scotspremteams/stjohnstone.html
- normally a fairly accurate site.
Falsehood League Standings
Free paper distributed in Edinburgh and Glasgow. First year under it's
own heading but given it's tendency to rehash Press Association stories,
expect a few scores.
Falsehood League Standings
Not a regular read. Don't expect too much coverage of Saints either.
Falsehood League Standings
Alleged up-to-date phone service for Saints fans. It isn't - Also
available at
http://uk.sports.yahoo.com/foot/engl/t/stjo/index.html.
Falsehood League Standings
Feeds most of the newspapers their falsehoods so a good chance of a
decent total.
