I have noticed there seems to be quite a bit of animosity towards Ross from the Saint Mirren fans on other forums. Can anyone enlighten me as to why this hatred exists??

:007:

When we played in the first division Rossco broke one of their players legs and got sent off. Think it was Chris Kerr the players name. It effectively ended the boys career and the St Midden fans have never forgot it.

Ah right that explains the "death threats" and promises of actual bodily harm if some of these so called fans ever meet him.

Was a very bad tackle it has to be said. Think the boy broke his leg in a number of places but don't know all the facts. Put it this way.... away to St Midden next season will be intresting.

It was a cruciate ligament injury. Aug 99. Ross went for the ball. I still have it on tape somewhere. His eyes follow the ball but it was a clumsy tackle. Rossco was new to div 1 and was off the pace if you ask me.

The Midden players all surrounded the ref and pressured him, also the North Bank were going mental. We were the wee team with only a couple of hundred fans so he took the easy way out and produced an instant red to get them all off his back. Early in the game too.

Since then the neanderthals boo any ICT player wearing no 2 whether it's Rossco or not.

Amazing how events get exagerated in time. here we've gone from cruciate damage to 'broke his leg in a number of places'.

It was a break of his fourth metatarsel if you ask me

Anyone who's anyone has one of those injuries

Bloody **** since when were you and Joe DiMaggio the same person.... The St Midden fans seem to think so.

What do you expect from St Mirren fans

I really can't wait till St midden away now. Reading some of the **** they have posted on P&B about ending Rossco career has just made me want to get feckin stuck in about them.

I never post on that board but read it now and then. Saw that topic yesterday and thought i'd reply to it.

Thing is i actually was sitting in the st.mirren end that day with a friend from paisley and was at the front row just feet away from where it happened!! But dont think any of them will believe it.

Thing is that's St Midden fans for you. They also have this attitude about them that they are going to breeze into the top 6 next season. I can't wait to see them floop.

Eh? :017:

I see Channel 4 are planning a new documentary series about St Mirren fans. Should be interesting.

:021:

am a bit confused by the franchise thistle tag they've given us :017:

im a footballer, and i dont go into tackles half hearted and ross doesnt either. Go into every tackle with 100% committment, expect to break your leg, put yourself on the line.

I personally cant stand st mirren after my trip down durning the 1-0 win away in the scottish cup!mon darren thompson!!lol!

The death threats to roscoe are unreal! The dawn of new rivals beckons.

Have to say that's a bit uncalled for mate :020:

IHE brought the fire in me out with this discussion!

He must be one desperate C**nty fan if he's going to support us against anyone. Glad to have on board though.

On the other hand, perhaps most C**nty fans are really secret admirers of their mighty neighbours in Inverness but are just too shy to admit it.

My hate-rid for St Mirren at the moment possibly surpasses County
