Gordon shouldn’t even be on the bench, let alone in the starting eleven again. He can’t play our style of football and is a complete liability, as last night showed.

I'm surprised he wasn't one of the ones out the door in the summer or January. Didn't have much confidence in him in the old system, never mind the new one.

I don't think he'll start, but I imagine Eythor might get some extended game time in this one to give his regards to the St Mirren defence..

St Mirren's away form is catastrophic and has put them in relegation danger but their recent home form is actually pretty good, only 1 defeat in 6 in the league.

St Mirren have kept 5 clean sheets in those 6 matches and we've failed to score in 4 of our last 6 away matches if you include the midweek cup match.  We also failed to score there earlier in the season.

I think this will be a very tough match for us and very much a potential banana skin.

It's important we don't lose two in a row as once you start to lose matches it can start a more serious rot.

Yes, once you start to dig into stats games can appear much harder than you originally thought. We are obviously capable of getting 3 points but coming away with a draw might be a decent result. I think O’Hara is back playing first them again so I’m sure that’s a big plus for them. May come down to us being a bit more clinical in front of goal.

Gordon for me looks like he is buffering on the ball and immediately wants to hoof it right up the park as soon as he gets.

Should be only used in a last of last resorts.

If only he had done that on Wednesday night.
