Gianfranco Posted October 31, 2018 Author Share Posted October 31, 2018 I got stuck in the *** traffic on the m74 and then in the queue to get in the away end for a good 20 minutes so I missed a fair chunk of the first half. David Turnbull and Bigi brought composure to that midfield and we actually passed it about a bit. Bigi and Grimshaws off the ball runs made space for Cadden and Tait as well. That was easily our best performance since Dens and it was because we had that composure. Turnbull looks a cracking player. The amount of times Grimshaw took us from one half to another and his general work rate has him as my man of the match. I haven’t enjoyed a goal as much as Cadden’s for a while. It was a good bounce and a decent passing move.St Mirren just didn’t have anything up front and didn’t really carry a threat. The red card looked like he caught Tait ridiculously high. Looked a red but would need to see it again.Hopefully the club deal with the fanny who invaded the pitch and then slipped on his arse. Twat.

thisGRAEME Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 Endeavour with a bit of reward tonight. Grimshaw isn't much of a baller, but his runs open up so much space, and Cadden with space to run into and with Grimshaw in front of him makes so much more sense. Anton Ferdinand is the least mobile footballer I've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
well fan for life Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 A hot take: St Mirren are very bad at football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archie McSquackle Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 For those who want to watch this again, the second half is about to start on Alba. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YassinMoutaouakil Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 100% sure Robinson put Maguire on at the end just to claim we ended the game with a midfield of academy graduates. Which is fine by me tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archie McSquackle Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 We've had some horror shows this season but I couldn't see St. Mirren taking any positives from that game tonight. Was that a fairly typical performance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ropy Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 I was wondering about the dive, he seemed to go up the way which isn't the obvions route when trying to con the ref. Also I wasn't looking for a red when I saw the tackle although the players around it reacted quickly, the clip I have seen looked like the tackle was high but not particularly dangerous.

djchapsticks Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 It's a shame Ryan Flynn got sent off as well as before that tackle, he'd actually convinced me that ghosts did exist on this halloween night. The absolute most absent performance I've seen (or rather, not seen) in a St. Mirren shirt since Stuart Carswell was haunting the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie McSquackle Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 That dive from Ryan Edwards - wow! He looked rightly shame-faced and didn't argue with his booking.It did get me thinking though, Edwards gets caught diving and gets a yellow card. Jones dived for Kilmarnock- it's not spotted and he gets a two game ban retrospectively. Same offence but completely different punishments only based on whether the ref sees it or not.

Ya Bezzer! Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 If I told you before the match that St. Mirren had scored 2 goals in the last 10 league matches, after the match you'd have wondered where they got 2 goals from in a mere 900 minutes of football. They are definitely going down. That's a lower league side and you'd be charitable to mean 'Championship'. As for us, turns out bringing actual footballers into the team can be beneficial. Won't get too excited though until we beat a team as high flying as St. Johnstone or Livingston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the assumption is that you've conned the ref so deserve a harsher punishment.

We're shite - our summer business was the worst bit of trading since Nick Leeson and our squad has terrible football players and no balance. Frankly we have a bigger job than we did this stage 2 years ago post Rae. There was some talent in that squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
