Raith25 Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 He inherited most of a team with some passing and scoring ability. Thats all gone now, he's completely changed the character of the team and we're now in free fall, if you havent noticed. Hardly inherited a team with scoring ability considering most of the team who played second half of last season are no longer here, wouldn't be losing sleep yet. we'll finish in the play offs come end of the season.

Gareth_Glasgow Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 I love Gary Irvine, he flung himself at everything today and constantly bails out the centre backs when we're in danger. Rocco was good too despite that joke of a booking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted December 10, 2016 Author Share Posted December 10, 2016 We've played the bottom half of the league and been second best in every game. To claim we will still make the playoffs with any certainty is bizarre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geo87 Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Not much quality on show today but morgans finish was excellent. Think we just about deserved the win based on 2nd half performance.Magennis was quiet but for someone so young he is so composed on the ball. Really difficult not to get excited about potential of Morgan McAllister and Magennis! Quinn in there makes such a difference! Gary Irvine is a bombscare!

houston_bud Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Relief at the end. We must have had close to 6 minutes stoppage time, which was torture.Thought we deserved it. Raith had a wee spell about 70mins where they had some pressure, but their only real chance was Stewart's one on one, up to then we were comfortable.Morgan and Shankland holding the ball in the corner for about 5mins was good.

Lex Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 *insert amusing wins being like busses analogy here* And a clean sheet too, my my. It's almost like we are a real team now. Can we beat Ayr at home next week? If we do we could be off the bottom by Christmas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuggie_Murray7 Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Gallacher was excellent. Who is McManus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leggy Blonde Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Two goals in four matches against the bottom four sides. Dundee Utd, Hibs and Falkirk all up next.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddieInDundee Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Words can't describe how much love I have for Rocco Quinn, the midfield actually looks relatively balanced now.Anyway, still in a fairly perilous position. But if we can beat Ayr, and that's a big if, then we've more than trebled our point tally in the space of 10 days, which is quite something.Still some way to go but what a difference in feeling from the end of the Dunfermline game.

Stevie88 Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Just home from the game.... great performance all round. I thought Shankland & McAllister were brilliant today & Lewis Morgan was running a mock down the left hand side. Great fight from the players, showed a lot of determination to get all 3 points, brilliant!Looking forward to next weekend already... COYS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ding Dang Doo Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Result today has been coming. Don't understand Coustrain being dropped when there are far more deserving players. McManus hasn't kicked a ball for months, Callachan needs taken down a peg or 2 and Roberts.... seriously what does he actually do in a game? No surprise that when Barr came on we looked far more dangerous and he was the only one who was going to create anything. We now go into 4 very tough matches in which if we came out with only 1 point it wouldn't be any big surprise. When do the clocks go forward again???

Stu Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Tremendous seethe from the Raith players and management after the game about being denied a stoppage time penalty. All I could see was McManus going to ground, no idea if it was a foul but I'd probably have been screaming for it. I've seen that ref a few times and he's been hopeless in all of them so it wouldn't surprise me if he missed it. Which is nice. Thought we were the better side for the first hour or so and then Raith really went at us. Gallacher was superb, although Stewart should have scored when through and McManus missed a sitter. Shankland was terrific for us, as was the defence. Showed some dig, steel and resilience that has been sadly lacking for most of the season. Two wins and a clean sheet in the space of five days. Pleasing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sergie's no1 fan Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 When is a ball boy not a ball boy? When St Mirren have a one goal lead. Been wanting our ball boys to do that for season. Seems like Jack Ross is pretty dam ruthless in trying to get us to win games. Narrowing the pitch at Alloa was crazy but it had an effect.They used to throw the ball back to opposition players really quick at throw ins etc. Hamilton Accies were the worst for it under Billy Reid, especially when the ball went miles behind the goal at the supermarket end.

Stu Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 To be fair we did exactly the same against Ayr Utd at Starks. Most home teams do it when they're winning (not something we've had much cause to practice of late). Similarly most goalies will take ages over everything if they are winning. And most opposition fans will moan about it (something we've had plenty of practice if this season). Them's the breaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shull Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 A great performance by St Mirren today. The young boys are an absolute tonic and are going to save our Season. 8 out of 10. WELL DONE SAINTS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted December 10, 2016 Author Share Posted December 10, 2016 Was good to see a bit of banter between fans. Far too often fans are miles away from each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
