Who would have thought that a few weeks ago Even a draw here and we are in the mix. 4 points or more from the next 2 games is what we need. QOTS away and Dumbarton at home the week after.

Back-to-back home wins mean it simply isn't blind optimism any longer, it's actual optimism. We have something tangible to hold onto now.

buddieup Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 If these back-to-back wins had been well deserved I could agree with you. Both wins were well deserved. In both we were better than the opposition, and whilst not playing as well as we perhaps could, we won by two clear goals against Alloa and kept a clean sheet yesterday. If you take these two games in isolation, then I could understand the accusation that people are getting ahead of themselves. However when you compare the Murray era to this new chapter under Rae, which has seen 4 league wins out of 6 and a significant improvement to performances and results, you can surely understand why fans are now cautiously optimistic about the season ahead?

oaksoft Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 Unbelieveable. People cant just enjoy a couple of back to back wins without finding reasons to point out the smallest negative. I genuinely feel sorry for them. I would never want to spend time with any of them but I do feel sorry for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 If these back-to-back wins had been well deserved I could agree with you. It is only your opinion if the win was 'deserved'. Similarly, it is only my opinion that American football is a great sport, and rugby union is boring shite, a sport where the referee plays far too big a part in the actual on-field events. This proves nothing, it is merely my opinion. The fact is - we just won two home games on the spin. Any optimism felt by the support now has two home wins to fuel it - it certainly is not simply blind optimism. You are simply wrong to suggest otherwise. If you aren't feeling even a wee bit warm and fuzzy / optimistic... Fair do's. That's your call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any optimism felt by the support now has two home wins to fuel it - it certainly is not simply blind optimism. You are simply wrong to suggest otherwise. One shot on target from open play at home to Queen of the South is not sufficient cause for optimism. Yes based on the last two home results there is some hope that AR and DF are starting to turn things around in that we are more solid at the back and more competitive in the midfield and that is something to be thankful for. However what we do with the ball when in possession leaves a lot to be desired. Edited February 8, 2016 by northstbuddie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TopCat Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 Believe Watson is suspended for this after his booking at the weekend. He will be a big loss, he's been excellent recently. Hopefully Webster is fit after going off in the first half on Saturday and Sean will go to LB and Gary to RB. If he isn't fit we would only have 3 available defenders in Baird, Kelly and Irvine.

Sergie's no1 fan Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 There have been 36 league meetings between the two teams at Palmerston with Queens winning 14, Saints 12 and 10 draws. It has actually been 8 league games since Queens scored against St Mirren, the last time was in a 2-2 draw in Paisley in November 2004 with Queens last victory against us coming in the previous month which was a 2-1 victory in Palmerston. We don't normally have decent records like this against teams and I expect a home win now I have mentioned it . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
