    TopCat reacted to Balmullo Bud in Jay Henderson   
    Sounds like he had another excellent game tonight. Always liked him, the kind of player that can produce a wee bit of magic out of nothing and has already scored some great goals for us. 
    Hopefully his loan up there has made him an even better player and more consistent. Wound love to see him come back and do the business for us.

    Eamonn Brophy is not the only Saints player having a successful loan period in the highlands at the moment. Young Jay Henderson starts and stars in ICT’s cup quarter final win against Kilmarnock and he will now go with them to the Scottish Cup semi final. Ayr or Falkirk is a potential Hampden opponent for Caley, could we have a St Mirren player in a Scottish Cup final for the first time since 1987?
    What a fantastic young player he is. Hopefully see more of him in a Saints strip soon. If we can’t use him, other top flight clubs will.

    I think Taylor will start instead of Joe, sadly. He is terrible. 
    The game isn’t tomorrow and as Watt is on loan he can’t play against his parent club. 
    Apart from that great post 😉

    Yeah good result last night for us - would have been better for us if they lost obviously - but it's still a good result.
    If we mirror our results in the reverse fixtures from earlier in the season, that will be enough for top six IMO. 
    Dundee Utd 0-3 St Mirren
    St Mirren 2-1 Livingston
    Rangers 4-0 St Mirren
    Hearts 1-0 St Mirren
    St Mirren 0-0 Killie
    Easy, right?

    On the original post when there was 8 games left(Livingston had 9 to play) all the other 3 teams apart from Livingston play the top 3 so us Aberdeen and Hibs all in same boat where only the "other" matches have full points potential but like you say we could start this 5 game run from 18th of March bottom of the 4 if Livingston win on Wednesday (which if they Utd then play us next & without a win for months so you know what happens next).

    I read someone's comment on here recently that 4 teams this season went weeks without a win until they played us.

    Think the way Hearts and Rangers fans are talking of their teams performances they will possibly lose at least one match before split we just have to hope it's not v Hibs or Aberdeen.

    One is a consequence of a business/ sport decision that could work in our favour. All business decisions are a gamble.
    The other is an idiotic, immature misjudgement that makes our chairman (and as a direct consequence, our club) appear petty and foolish. Having previously been reprimanded for a similar incident it is scarcely believable that he didn't learn his lesson. Our chairman has become a liability.

    Agreed, I would be hanging fire & seeing if Brophy can stay fit & keep scoring for the rest of the season at County before making decisions on Main.

    His wife decided she didn't "need him" and his antics and neither do we.
    This sort of stuff is tweeted by supporters of every club and most chairmen can show a wee bit of restraint.
    I agree, it is a nothing story.  It's still one we could do without.

    The decision and tie that has always stuck in my mind was the Scottish Cup Quarter Final replay against Hearts in 2012. We were 1-0 down and Hasslebaink headed home our equaliser. However, the referee gave us a penalty instead, which Graham Carey missed. We'd go on to lose 2-0.
    What made it stick in the craw even more was that Craig Beattie had agreed to sign for us but Hearts had offered him more money, so he went to them instead. He scored one of their goals in the first tie at Tynecastle that led to the replay in the first place and would go on to score the winner in the semi final too. Of course they were financially doped up to their eye balls at this point and were spending dirty Lithuanian money they didn't have. They'd go on to win the Scottish Cup, beating Hibs 5-1 in the final. Still bitter? You betcha!
    Thankfully we kind of got our revenge the next season, by beating them in the league cup final.

    I wonder if he has a clause in his contract that if he starts a certain number of games it triggers another years contract... Just a thought, but i know a lot of players who have this in there contract's.

    Watt’s been a dud, so far. Thought he was terrible again yesterday. The game against Celtic next week will be his last for us till April. Our only other game in March is at Tannadice, and he can’t play. I’d be amazed if he was playing for us next season.

    Spot on. He’s clearly a very capable striker at this level, as he’s showing with Ross County. 
    Let’s hope we give him more of a chance next season.

    One for the stattos. Eamonn Brophy scored two and set up two today. Or scored one and set up three depending what the dubious goal panel says. When was the last time a St Mirren striker had four goal involvements in a Scottish top flight match?
    Meanwhile our strikers continue to struggle to find a coos arse with a banjo. Zero goal involvements between the two of them today, for the fifth (5th) game in a row.
