I was glad to be heading back to Glasgow on the train with a win - after being 3 mins away from an exit. The only thing worse than that exit would have been extra time - I'd have had to leave with the wee man at 90 mins as the missus would have my head for keeping him out to just about midnight on a school night! We were the better side - dominated (as we should have) - created loads of chances (as we should have) - but due to a combination of superb goalkeeping, stout defending, bad luck and bad finishing (in that order) - we just couldn't break through. Sometimes we tried to walk the ball into the net whereas what was needed was someone just to take a punt - but that is my only criticism - there are times when things just don't go your way. Their keeper was MOTM without a doubt. We were both unlucky and lucky last night - it was a memorable game for the drama - glad I was there and glad to move on to the next round.

3 or 4 great saves from EK keeper - expect a couple of goals for us second half

Listening to The Farm while looking round at the crowd... "Altogether Now... Somewhere else" [emoji3]

Good luck today Saints! Won't be there but will be following avidly on open all mikes. Cautiously optimistic but not taking anything for granted. A win today would really lay down a marker for the season! I'm going for a Saints 2-1 win - Stelios and Morgan. COYS

He's certainly curried favour with me... If we are keeping John I don't see how this can be anything other than good - another attacking option and at least some experience on the bench. I think we are certainly better off than we were this time last week [emoji3]

Hopefully we pass them on the way up - and they stay down for a good few years. I bear a grudge - justified or not - forever

It'll be 'open all mikes' for me. Although I will have to listen in on the QT as due to be at barbecue. I think we will win - by the odd goal - a very tight match...as long as we don't get complacent and copy the 'its in the bag' attitude of Falkirk. We won't. Morton 1 - St Mirren 2

I'm glad that Messrs Naismith and Kelly got off to a winning start for County - Kelly should never have been punted. Also glad that their win came at the expense of the hatchet men from Dundee. That one's for Kyle.

Pretty annoyed with BBC website. Took ages for match report to come up and then it was only a couple of paragraphs and wrong. Obviously they didn't have anyone covering the game [emoji35]

Just home. What a performance! The way we came back to dominate was so encouraging. We've laid down a marker that we should be contenders for at least the play offs. Thought everyone got at least 7 out of 10 today. Special mention to Stelios, Smith, Reilly, McGinn, Mackenzie... Feck it... Everyone!

Better team. 1-1 the least we deserve. Started shakily. Ended the half strongly. No matter what happens second half in this game, I am optimistic for the season. COYS

Some decent tunes from JR. Let's hope we can 'Step on' these Bairns today...

Tonight's free footy on TV. And, yes Shull; it's competitive. Ruzomberok v Everton UEFA Europa League Third Qualifying Round 2nd Leg 19:45 ITV4

Form and facts don't matter when you've got blind faith I've got the champagne on ice for Saturday

Welcome back Harry! Three good central defenders at the club now (hopefully four if Gregor Buchanan settles) More experience to be passed on to Jack Baird so we will also be 'future proofing' the position.
