    70 fucking minutes, most of which was watching Livingston players stroll towards a ball and pull their socks up 8 times on the way, or watching Obileye roll about clutching his face before jumping up just before the physios were called.

    Genuinely think its the worst game of football ive ever sat through.

    What’s a “typical” amount of dead time in a Saints game this season, or more generally?

    Expanding on the “worst game” theme… I pretty much always stay until the final whistle, have sat through some pathetic defeats to see them through, but yesterday I gave serious though to just going home just after the hour mark it was that dire. 

  2. Thought Saints were dreadful second half. All I’m seeing from Kimpioka is that he’s faster than any of our other options. Not particularly convinced by DJ up front, either.

    The ball spent a lot of time in the air, which suited Motherwell more than us - we just don’t win those balls. Thought we looked better on Wed night when the ball was kept down more.

    It speaks volumes that Davidson didn't get a job down south on the back of the double season. Guys up here have achieved far less and strolled into "decent" jobs in England. 

    Going back to @Ludo*1’s earlier question, I think Davidson would be currently be held in much higher regard by Saints fans if he had rode off into the sunset/down south straight after the cup double.

    Thought yesterday it was a bit harsh substituting Parker at half time - he was not the worst centre back on display in yesterday's match.

    I would persevere with him and drop Captain Gordon and replace Considine with McLelland.  This parnership cannot be any worse than the one they are replacing.

    It also give us the weapon of the long throw into the box and with VAR the potential to get penalties.

     

     

     

    I was quite impressed with Parker’s long throw, he got the ball into the box at least once. Thought it may give us an option to do something with a set piece for once. 

  5. If results like this are the cost of the decade of success we’ve just had then I’ll still take that over whatever St Mirren, Hibs or Dundee saw in the same period.

    That was an inexperienced starting team with a lack of leadership from the senior players and a threadbare bench. It may be ok to bleed in some of the youngsters one at a time but not all at once.

    As it stands we’re going to be in trouble.

    0/10 is generous for May today - absolutely devoid of ability and belief today, albeit he was robbed of going clean through by awful linesmanning.

    Gordon should be  ashamed of himself - given the task of seeing a young team through a meaningless game and he completely posted missing. Embarrassing stuff. Doesn't bode well if he is captain material.

    Sinclair was awful for all four goals, although I wonder if the corner was turned in by Jephcott. Mitov clearly now starting GK

    Some of the young lads conducted themselves pretty well in the circumstances, especially some of those which came on.

    Philips was poor and complacent. Jephcott a bit useless and looks overweight. Gallacher jumpy again.

    Missing (and not Crawford) was - Carey, Wright, Kane, Clark, Booth?

    I can't wait to see Kane playing again.

    Worst of all - the commentary 

    Hard to disagree with much of that. Too little leadership being shown.

  7. I’m sure I heard an announcement over the tannoy of a crowd in the region of 2,990.

    Wasn’t at the Aberdeen game but did notice on Saturday that most of the row behind my ST seat weren’t there, and the guy that sits beside me and leaves early set a new record - 42mins.

    Brought someone along who wanted to go to a game. Made the point ahead of time that it was likely to be awful. I was not wrong.
