  1. One real positive from today:-

    We can't argue we were unlucky - Kilmarnock murdered us in the second half.

    Then some negatives:-

    With the benefit of hindsight - should Kwon and Baccus have started?

    And on this showing, we will have to do something to bolster our central defence - will the return of Bolton and a fit Taylor make a difference.

    The result today, from 2 goals up at halftime, was particularly painful after the turn-around against Aberdeen a fortnight ago.

  2. As has been previously pointed out by many of us, it is clear that Robinson and O'Carroll (and possibly other coaching staff) have the knack of getting the full potential out of many players - I don't need to list the examples here - it is beyond arguement, but Olusanya is just one example.

    All the more reason to ensure that we negotiate a deal to ensure their continued employment at the SMISA Stadium.

    Everything in the garden seems rosy at present with the anticipated return to form and fitness of several key players.

    However, that situation could change in an instant, if our management team (including Keith Lasley) were to be poached by a wealthier club, such as our old friends from Pittodrie.

  3. Quote from the BBC website:-

    "Not only have Aberdeen not won there in six visits, St Mirren have won three of their latest five meetings, losing only once, and a 3-0 win at Pittodrie in December was one of the embarrassing scorelines that led to Barry Robson's departure."

    This si a recipe for disaster if ever there was one!

    Looking forward to this game as when I was up at the last Aberdeen game we gave them a right doing.

    They have areal striker in their ranks but, that apart, they are honking. 

    Are you forgetting Jamie McGrath?

    He is one of the few who has performed consistently well for them.

    As for us, I long for Strain, O'Hara, McMenamin and Baccus to team up as they did at the start of the season when we were playing some attractive football.

    However, I appreciate that Saturday may be a bit too soon for Strain to get involved.

    I did, though it was reasonably obvious. 

    I'll assume you're only 2 years old if you think that was the most painful draw in living memory? :lol:

    I'm actually quite elderly - that's the problem - my memory is not what it used to be.
