I'm questioning Danny Mac at both goals. Like to see it again but he's making no effort to tuck in and make it difficult for the attacker when it's gone over the centre backs' heads.

Obvious question is why 3ft tall McNamara is marking Obika in the first place.

There was absolutely no need at all for us to sit that deep for the entire second half. McNamara has to carry the can for the winner though, it’s his man and he totally loses him. Until 80 minutes we defended fine and St Mirren didn’t really get much of a sniff of goal but when you defend like that and allow the opposition that much possession you’re bound to give away chances eventually.

FT 3-2

 

Yeehaa. Two three two wins in four days. Both with late winners. This ain’t good for the heart Saints.

 Never in doubt eh. We never played that well, nowhere near performance levels we have reached in recent weeks.

 As expected St Johnstone parked the bus second half and we were struggling to break them down as time ran out.

 Then the subs changed the game. I’ve been fairly critical of Kyle McAllister this season, he hasn’t offered enough. Him coming on was the difference.

 Before then the quality of delivery wasn’t up to scratch and we didn’t really look like scoring.

He comes on, looks lively and puts in two fantastic crosses. Erwin heads one in, Obika heads the other in. Three points, just like that.

 Delighted with the way the teams performing at the moment. Eleven games unbeaten, six wins in the last seven (should have won the one we drew too), In 8th place despite well documented off field issues, within touching distance of a major title, we’re absolutely flying and the only downside is we aren’t there to watch it.

Just shit from us, frankly. 

Defence is a shambles and is why we're so low in the league. 

Zero complaints. As soon as we went to the back 5 the game was lost.

I would have said that was harsh on the Saintees as yous were well organised in the 2nd half....until we put in a couple of decent crosses into the box. Leaving our big 2 strikers unmarked, they were never going to miss them.


Fair play to McAllister, that is what he has in his locker. We need to see more often.

Not a bad week for us all in all.

Nothing harsh or well organised about us. You just need to pap balls towards the six yard box to score against us.

Really getting hard to defend this team now.
