    Going against the flow and my own gut feelings, but this might be our year -
    IF the players play to their full potential;
    IF SR can get the best out of what's available just as we saw a marked improvement in the performance in Curtis Main at the end of last season;
    IF we get the rub of the green;
    IF we avoid major injury worries;
    IF Jay Henderson gets the chance to show his quality on the right wing; and
    IF the support get behind the team in large numbers from the start.

    Now nicely set up for the team humiliated 3-0 by Sligo to start their rehabilitation against our leaky defence on Sunday.

    Baccus makes up for his slight build with speed of thought/action, skill and aggression.
    Looks a promising signing, albeit after just one game.

    Threads like this should be censored.
    Apart from being nonsensical, it's hardly going to help support the players who are representing/playing for St Mirren.
    This is a prime example of the evils of social media.

    A special mention for Richard Tait - he showed surprising ball control to lay on the third goal - almost Joyan Cruyffish in execution!

    Going into this one with a wee bit more confidence In what we can offer from midfield, hopefully Ayunga can prove he’s capable of scoring against better defences but I have worries that our defence are not working as a unit yet . 

    Lots of unanswered questions.
    Can Shaughnessy & Gallagher form a solid partnership ?  Where does Dunne fit in ? Will we go 3, 4 or 5 🤷‍♂️?  
    Will Shaughnessy & Dunne cut out the pointless 70 yard passes ? ( neither of you are Beckenbaur - stop thinking you are!).  
    Hopefully we can pick up three points but just as important is the performance and hopefully signs of progression.

    We were well worth our 3-0 lead at halftime and would probably have doubled that score in the second half if we had played our strongest 11.
    Nobody can deny it has been a disappointing start to the season but other posters have pointed out the plus points from today's performance - Baccus, Ayunga, Strain, Erhahon, Offord & O'Hara + the younger players got valuable experience - especially Taylor.
    Question what has Henderson got to do to get a game?
    The minus side from today was our defence's continuing inability to concentrate for the full 90 minutes.

    Strain is one of those ones that will take time.
    He's had practically zero football in 2022 so understandable he's going to be rusty. 
    Time to get off the back of guys like Strain, Ayunga and Olusanya who I've seen quite a few folk making their judgements on already. We need to give these guys a bit of time to bed into the pace and physical differen e of the game here.

    That was a piece of magic from Tait, I sit in M7 and had a great view, his take down was immense then to turn the defender inside out for a very nice goal to follow was a joy to see!!

    I don't think we are as bad as results have been. Performance wise we have been poor but we are trying to bed in a number of new players who have not had too many minutes on the pitch over last season. 
    Strain, Ayunga and Baccus look better than decent. Gallagher and O'Hara look good too. 
    A settled side up to speed will do better than this. I still think we are squad light and need a Gogic type 
    There are signs of what Robinson is trying to do.
