Killie are no world beaters so Saints have a chance but only a slim one. Playoffs beckon.

Bragging about holidays again ? Normally it’s Facebook for that drivel. Leave football for those of us who go to matches and not sit in front of satellite tv with a betting slip.

You are undoubtedly the most loathed poster on here. It’s you who should be running along. Chop chop.

I thought you must be banned from here by now, you certainly ought to be.

The next game is an absolutely must win, however with the worst forward line in the league it’s a tall order. Play offs look a certainty now.

From the brief highlights it seemed Saints were well beaten but from the comments on here it appears the opposite. Yet again though our failing is up front. Decided against going next week but hoping for an improvement and maybe the prospect of a winnable final will spur the team on.

Great result when it really mattered. Special mention to Devaney who never wasted a ball and of course the great Gogic. I think even if we end up in the play offs we have the ability to survive. BTW some of the personal abuse from posters on this forum is outrageous.

Same as Saints, nothing up front.

There was a lot of talk earlier in the season about wrong var decisions and how they could impact unfairly on teams which have been victims. Given our unenviable record particularly in the first half of the season, this may come to pass for Saints. It’s rather a self fulfilling prophesy for us. Admittedly having a non existent forward line doesn’t help but I reckon we have been denied a few points by Var. Maybe we are due a change of luck before the end of the league. About time.

Rather agree with this, I think the best we can hope for is the play off. Second half was an improvement but with the worst forward line in the country we never look like scoring. For the amount of money rangers have spent on their team, they look nothing special. Fingers crossed that Livi don’t win any matches or they might reel us in. Best today were Gogic and Devaney . Next week is a definite Must win.

Who was the chap who won us our last league title and left for a big job in England ? Seems to have sunk without trace. Maybe worth consideration ?

A win’s a win, but that was a hard watch.

👍

Many thanks for pointing that out.

I don’t think it’s overly alarmist to consider that Saints may not pick up any points before the league splits. The writing has been on the wall for some time, mainly due to the very poor quality of our forwards. The recent additions are , if anything, even worse than those before them. For that, the manager is culpable, however he has done well up to now so deserves a bit of indulgence. As for the next game, our cup record against Thistle is historically bad and I think a lot of fans will give it a miss due to the awful timing and live tv coverage. It’s a three way contest now for the drop and we find ourselves hoping for defeats for Killie and Livi unfortunately. It’s in the lap of the gods.

Yet another very predictable defeat. Deary me.

Apparently a few weeks ago Celtic were “schooled” by Motherwell. Last night we were “universitied” then. I imagine Well fans must be furious they played a weak team and exited the cup, that was really stupid. Very impressed with that display though, looked fast and with great passing and attitude. As for the opposition, a team without the ability to score goals is likely to fail. Who could possibly condone the signing of the recent intake of duds ? I thoroughly despair.

Every cloud etc 😁

Certainly lack of recruitment of a goal scorer. The current lot and the new intake are hopeless. Looks like 11th place finish I’m afraid. These results are the responsibility of the management team.

You just can’t help yourself,lol. Just don’t be so rude though. There’s a good boy. 🤣

Well I knew for sure that you wouldn’t have been at the match of course. Also, no need to be so rude, I’ve always used the term “wireless” and will continue if it’s ok with you. 😁

Not unexpected,but awful result. Yet again none of our goals from a forward, which highlights the dreadful signing policy. Just as an aside, I had to rely on wireless updates so how did others manage to see the match ?

Exactly. The whole second half each tackle on a Hearts player saw them collapsing in “agony”. Miraculously to recover when play resumed. That’s the third time we’ve played them here and been the better team each time. Only worry is that yet again our goal came from a defender. Where are the forwards ?

Phew, left it late but deserved the win. Hope none of the Hearts players are too mortally wounded.

Both home games against them we have been the better team but it’s hard to see where goals are coming from, and the transfer window has been yet again very disappointing.
