They had two efforts on goal and scored with both. One being an absolute gift. By any measure of all statistics today we didnt deserve to lose even as below par as we were. They scored twice, had the ball in the net but fortunately for us it was offside. They also rattled the underside of the bar. So obviously they deserved the win.

I read it as they deserved. to win because they came into the game with a plan and left with three points. So well played Dundee. It was up to us to break them down and we just couldn’t do it today. Another day we might have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We like all the teams outside of the bigot brothers have only two cups we can win. So would I swap our season for St Mirren. You better believe I would. Silverware is permanent , form and league status are transient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because you can go through your whole life and see your team winning nothing of note. St Mirren supporters will remember winning the cup for the whole of their life. Just like those who saw us winning in 1991. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dundee didn't deserve to win today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prestwickwell Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago We were miles off it today unfortunately Bringing on the big man at half time was the right shout, but uv got to give him something to attack in the box just a bad day at the office in a great season Might be in the minority but I wouldn’t swap St Mirrens cup for the entertainment we’ve produced this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simples really. as I said a view that suggests any team that doesn't win deserves to lose and I just don't accept that. We will just need to agree to differ.

Our aim is to make sure we finish 4th. 2nd defeat in 20 games . Rewind 13 months and we were at end of Kettlewell reign. Shows you how far we have progressed since then. True . Wise words We came a long way . But others have won cups and thus made legends . If we even keep a 3rd of squad together we should make top 6 next year and chance of cup semi final Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats a shocker for Aberdeen though, to have the 3rd biggest wages bill in Scotland and getting thumped by a championship team is not acceptable.

That meant winning at Celtic Park, Tynecastle , Ibrox , Easter Road and Celtic and Hearts at Fir Park , In no world was that EVER going to happen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its just unrealistic and not going to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FirParkCornerExile Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago We need to be up for it to keep Hibs at bay. They play Livingston while we play Celtic so we are realistically going into a head to head with Hibs with only 4 points between us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
