Alex_14 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 St Johnstone seem to be in disarray at the moment. I don't expect a repeat of the 5-1. 2-0 home win will do nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Looks like we'll be missing Millar and Davidson, who will join Easton and Mackay on the injury list. All being well, that's our starting midfield and probably our starting full backs. Comfortable Aberdeen victory in this one I suspect. Usually a decent game between the sides, but you'll be too strong for us, especially after the wee break you got last weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suspect Device Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I think this will end 7-6 to Aberdeen. We'll be 7-0 up in the first half then St. Johnstone will fight back to leave a nail biting finale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Saintee Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 This should be an absolute pumping. No hiding from it, we are playing shite just now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real Saints Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 If Millar and Davidson are out, we stand no chance. If at least one of them is OK for the game, I think we will put up a fight. Yesterday's performance was better. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't great. But Firhill is generally not a happy hunting ground for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 No idea how thisll go. Expecting a 2-0 or 3-1 type loss but youre never really certain what Saints side will turn up. We could lose an early goal and lose by 6 or scramble an early lead and win 1-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 A prediction off between RG and StandFree. Both have a 0% strike rate in the build up, so its tough to choose a winner here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real Saints Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 It used to be. Scored 4 almost every time we went there. Indeed. The First Division days were more fruitful. We've only won once there since 2006. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widge Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 There's no chance we will win by 6. Hayes is out and if McGinn doesn't bother his arse then it'll be 1-0 or 1-1. This was all lined up for you to rip us to shreds over how shite we are and predict a comfortable win. What's up Standy I worry when you're not slagging us off?

andrewh Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Indeed. The First Division days were more fruitful. We've only won once there since 2006. Their current manager used to play for them at full back in the latter years of the 90's. I recall him being quoted in the press at the time before one of our visits as having said quite strongly that Thistle would put an end to our run or challenge us for the title. Not sure which. We won 4-0 I think. It was funny. He's laughing now, at our expense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radford Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 It was Charlie Adams that mouthed off about what he was going to do to us before we put four past Thistle. Late 1996. Despite this run of results, I'd still be hopeful whoever the opposition with our strongest side but we look likely to have too many men down for this one, plus others who are running on empty. Central midfield is the big worry. Craig and Lappin together isn't encouraging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Central midfield is the big worry. Craig and Lappin together isn't encouraging. Hey Radford, I was sure it was Archibald. Maybe they both did it? That was some season, starting after the infamous Challenge Cup final defeat at Broadwood v. Stranraer. 13 games without losing a goal? Falkirk finally got one at McD. That goal was scored by Paul McGrillen who sadly died in 2009. Such a shame. I can hardly believe that we've gone from a position of such strength (on 5/12/15) and potential to where we are now, and yet we can still finish fourth if we can arrest this run and find some form.

Dick Van Dyke Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 4-1 dons, Sutton to come on for the last 18 minutes, TW to say in his post match interview "I thought we created chances" when we actually haven't and "individual errors cost us and that can't keep happening" wotherspoon to shite out of at least 4 challenges Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raidernation Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 1-1. Awful performance from AFC and Ash (undroppable) Taylor after we go 1 - 0 after 11 seconds with a screamer from 56 yards by Considine (who was just attempting a 5 yard forward pass!

DrewDon Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 It will be interesting to note how McInnes opts to cover Logan's absence at RB. Is it possible that Shinnie will switch sides? If we are going to win on Saturday, we will really need McGinn to step up to the plate; assuming he starts, I would also like a much more substantial showing from Church. I'll predict 1-1; a defensive error from Shaughnessy to bail us out in the second half after trailing at half time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussellAnderson Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 You'll be fine if Shinnie switches sides. That boy can play anywhere. The old song "we all dream of a team of so-and-sos" really does apply here. Can't think of many more versatile players who've played for Aberdeen.
