How often do we fling crosses into the box for noone to get on the end of them though? If we had a forward with that instinct in and around the box we'd have near doubled our current goal tally. I agree that maswanhise probably wouldn't fit into their system but he'd create some amount of assists in our team if he had someone to aim at.

I'm not going back 20 years fs. I'm talking about in the present. We don't have a natural finisher at the club who plays as a centre forward. They have Ayunga who bullies the shit out of defenders AND scores goals. Mandron, who knows if he'd have kicked on with us at the time but I'll tell you one thing. They're both more effective in front of goal for StM than Hendry and Stama are for us.

Just on St Mirren and their line up. Why can we not unearth an Ayunga type forward? Surely we're shopping in the same market as them? And look at the trajectory of mandron since he left us. I'd take him back in a minute.

LOL

Anyone outside the big two winning a trophy is a victory for the rest of Scottish football. Well done St Mirren. Here's hoping we can keep up the good form and challenge for top 4.

Even game, avoid defeat away from home and another clean sheet. Take it.

His best work is when he drops deep to link up play bit he's shown very little in terms of instinct in and around the opposition box

How is that a foul? Let alone a yellow card??

We didn't do enough to win that, again a draw probably fair. Falkirk got right in our faces and we didn't cope with it. Couple that with a shite plastic pitch that was dry as a nuns chuff and an absolute dug meat referee and we were always going to struggle. Onto the weekend.

This was always going to be tough. Falkirk pressing us high up the pitch and hunting in packs preventing us getting into our groove. As said before, we need them to tire and hopefully gaps will appear.

I had the exact same thought when I left the ground. We'll enjoy every minute of it, the fans have certainly earned it based on recent times.

McCall's a helmet. Tipped us for the drop at the beginning of the season. There's a good reason he doesn't manage in the Prem.

This is getting more and more difficult with each passing week. No failures on the pitch at all again but Welsh is an absolute brick wall. Need to get him signed if possible.

We've played football for half an hour, got ourselves into a lead and are ready to shit the bed again. It's a mentality thing for me. We can't cope with teams coming onto us, we just panic.

Welsh cruised that today. Couldn't have done anything about the goal. If we can get him on a permanent deal I'd make it a priority.

That's a good point on the road

Love seeing that wee prick Shinnie upset. McLean's absolute garbage 😄

Unbelievable. Sudden urgency and attacking intent as soon as we go a goal down and look what happens.

Huge let off there. Not offside and should have scored

We take 100 passes to get to the opposition box. Other teams take 4 to get to ours and generally score. We need to be more direct and move the ball far quicker to be effective up top.

A thoroughly professional display. Other than the post scare we completely dominated a United side that has started the season well. I was right behind Watt's strike. What a thing of beauty it was. Well done lads. Naturally it's the O'Neill show on BBC Scotland. Shock

VAR and the incompetents that are operating it can get firmly in the bin. Never in a million years was that a clear and obvious offside at best. So pleased justice was done in the end. Massive 3 points that should give us a valuable lift ahead of next week.

Longelos been miles off it today. On his heels all afternoon. Get Charles on

Wee Eli's a fantastic talent but he's got nothing to hit up front. We're not difficult to defend against.
