And the United match after that. Worst case is 3x 3-0 defeats to teams around us. Our season could effectively be over before the end of October. So hopefully these matches won’t be forfeited and we can replay them at a later date.

Didn’t think he was junk last season, inconsistent yes, but not junk. I thought he put in plenty of crosses on Saturday, but agree both he and Foley have not looked as interested this season.

I couldn’t wok out what our formation was. Looked like three at the back at times, but Foley was often the last man, which is mad if we were 4-4-2 with Foley in midfield. Sharon has been invisible for me - I didn’t know he was playing against Thistle until he was subbed off. Similar today. Once McCarthy is back we need to revert to a back four.

Yes, but has to revert to a back four

Actually struck his pen really well. Must admit I was not at all confident he would score.

Commentators are much better than ours too !

So pens it is. Very lucky to get back level and take it to pens. QoS should have been well out of sight by HT.

Absolutely. He’s off the mark already and I believe he’ll come good and get us the gaols we’re looking for. Give him time ffs !

No doubt that was not one of Erwin’s best - nothing came off for him last night - however, I do believe he will come on to a game and get goals for us as the season progresses. How many games did it take Obika to get off the mark ?

I don’t disagree with your comments on the scoring exploits of some of our recent strikers, but rather than focus on the negative side, let’s be positive about Connolly‘s impact - have we found a player who can contribute the goals from midfield that in recent years have been missing ? His finish was good and composed, as was Obika‘s, however, Tait’s header was the best of the night for me.

7 points. Victories against Accies and United Draw at Livi

In an attempt to get this thread back on topic.... Regardless of the result at Pittodrie the match against Thistle represents a chance to steady the ship, for the team to restore some confidence and get a result. No reason we shouldn’t win this by a few clear goals, apart from the fact we’re St.Mirren, and playing very poorly at the moment. 3-1 victory with goals from Erwin, Junior and Shaughnessy Will be keeping my finger crossed though !

Not missed anything. I watched all the matches in September and on the back of that have decided not to pay for any more away games until we start playing better football, starting with Dons tomorrow night. I am of course hoping my merge effort at a boycott will lead to an unexpected positive change in our fortunes ! I will still use ppv for our home matches as a means of financially supporting the club.

Love your optimism, but I think the best we’ll get is a lucky draw 1-1 Unless Dons get more than one player sent off.

Agree it was probably a low bid, but can’t help think we’re only advertising the fact he could be for sale in order to try to generate some more interest. I know he’s club captain but, if he wants to go, then perhaps it’s best to sell now, as long as we can bring in another couple of players now. And unless we start picking up points soon I suspect we’ll need significant funds for the January window. Need a decent sell on % too Mallan on loan along with McGregor wouldn’t be bad either (I’m assuming they’re not injured)
