I was not wanting St Mirren to win that purely out of petty jealousy and annoyance at our semi final performance but…. I’m ok about it now. I can’t stand wee Robinson but I’m pleased for guys like Lasley. i can’t imagine how insufferable their fans will be now right enough.

Ah well, we’ll just have to win the Scottish Cup instead.

We fecked up big time in the semi, a big opportunity missed, lets hope we learned from it for the Scottish cup

Totally agree. Utd with their resources reverting to time waste at home against us to try and get a point. Would be good if a journalist raised this nonsense.

We were a little unlucky when Robinson took us to the finals that a good Celtic side were waiting. Every team will be fancying their chances in the Scottish Cup this year, though.

Depends on what he is like with penalties

No reason we cant win the cup with a little bit of luck. No other team currently scares me. Watching the league cup final and celtic are awful. St Mirren doing what they do best. Direct agressive and clinical. Mind you their goalie is taking the p with the 8 second rule. Constantly way over 10 seconds. Then there is players from both sides rolling about without any contact. The officials just dont have a clue what a foul or rules are. St mirren obviously destined to win cup. If its your year then everything goes your way.

There's no amount we could spend on JBA that an interested rival team couldn't match or exceed. As I have said elsewhere, though, the positive is that JBA is implementing a style that a large number of teams across Europe are playing. So whe the time comes, it should be easier to find someone to keep it going.

I think we have to look at spending Money to keep JBA here for a couple years. Well at least enough to stop him going to a Scottish rival. We won’t be able to compete money wise if an English team comes calling. I don’t think we have spent much of the Miller money but I’d be willing to spend a chunk of it to keep JBA here for a bit. I see that as a good investment.

But if Aberdeen sack Thelin then would they come looking at JBA??

Yes. I hope Killie win. I’m happy for SK to stay there dragging them down.

A comfortable home win is a must, though there’s probably more chance of Ward scoring than either of our two strikers.

They are currently winning 1-0, which to be fair would be a good result for us if killie won.

I certainly hope so!!!!!!!!

What's the chances of Kettlewell ending up there if killie lose today?

Another draw I’m afraid. 1-1

I think Welsh should be available but will JBA play him. More of a gash than concussion I think. At least on the bench I would think. JT been struggling a wee bit so maybe the break will be good for both him and the team. My replacement would be Cook who can score goals too.

This whole business of watering the pitch weird, and pissing about with the multi ball is so small time. However, its flattering that teams now need to coordinate with gardeners and children to stop us.

At their end the balls were beside the posts. Our end they were nearly at the corner flag. Also the ball boys were throwing the ball to them to take the set pieces quickly and lifting up the balls for us. Just a deliberate way of slowing the game down for us. Thought the multi ball on cones was meant to stop that crap

I see Ross county have sacked Tony Docherty after their 6-0 pumping by Raith rovers yesterday. I hope they dont get the new manager bounce and hit some form before the Scottish cup tie

A friend texted me with an account of the Ball Boys incident. They were placing balls near the corner flags to stop us taking quick bykicks. JBA sent Tom Sparrow to move them in line with the 6 yard box. The Ball Boys then kept moving them back. Pathetic gamesmanship from Jim Goodwin. Thanks Ian. Although I wasn't at the game nor at Falkirk, the referees should have stepped in and nipped this practice in the bud. Its downright cheating. This and "selective" watering of plastic pitches should be subject to a code of conduct issued by the authorities to stamp this kind of thing out. Its bringing the game into disrepute.

Quite refreshing to watch a game with zero controversy and no VAR calls. When was the last time that happened….? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was okay with the starting selection to begin with as he has earned the right to prove us all wrong. But it was fairly obvious from early in the second half that we needed fresh legs and more width to counteract what United were doing, so my only beef is that the subs should have come earlier. We looked more of a threat when Longelo and Said came on. Be nice to see them start on Saturday.

Ive not heard but i suspect its not using the multi ball system we have at Fir park and thd ball boys being instructed to take as much time as possible to return the ball, to stop us getting on eith the game quickly.

Not a crunch game in the true sense, but an important one nonetheless if we're serious about a top 6 challenge. Dundee hasn't got the best defensive record in the league; in fact its joint worst with Livingston. However thats only a factor if we can pressurise them and get the ball into their box. JT will be absent as might Stephen Welsh. Two potentially big losses. Hopefully, JBA will pick a more adventurous defence.
