Three points which were very welcome. Thought it was an awful game and Motherwell were just as poor as in the first game down here. They could be in deep trouble. All our home games, despite having a good record, seem to be going in front then unable to improve on that and eventually have the fans biting the fingernails every time the opposition attack. Still feel our lack of a goal scorer will hurt us badly and it’s pretty certain we won’t sign anyone now. Regardless, the one good sign is the improved attendances which is heartening.
-
No idea where goals might come from, but we have to beat Motherwell on Saturday or else I fear we will end up in or near the play off spot. I do hope, though, that Robinson does not try for a loan player from the lower leagues in England. That hasn’t ,and never will, be successful.
-
Worst possible draw. Not in the least surprised, had a feeling it would be a tie like that.
-
Further evidence that goal scoring is a real problem for us. We have to release those unable to find the net, particularly Ayunga and Brophy. I see a slide down the league as those teams with goal scorers go above us. Hoping for a home cup draw against whoever is the weakest team left.
-
Never a penalty, ball played him. Game is painful to watch, men against boys, flyweight against a heavyweight. Tv ought to have picked a better game to screen live.
-
Whilst Dundee are a league beneath us, I fully expect a tough game today. Defeat would be awful but not unthinkable, particularly bearing in mind our inability to score goals. I assume no transfer signings are to be expected either. Hoping for a good old fashioned cup tie and a win. Preferably to also avoid an away tie next at OF , Hearts, Aberdeen etc. 😁

The implication,of course, is that I’m always pessimistic ?. I still attend all home games though, despite the pessimism. Anyway let’s not fall out.

And your own summation ?

Just watched the highlights, Saints looked very poor at defending and well beaten as I’d suspected. Hate to be pessimistic but the team is slipping down the league and will likely continue thus as goal scoring looks to be a lost art. Survival and a possible cup run is the best we can hope for. That’s one win in eight games. Not good enough.

Do you even realise the budget differences between ourselves and teams like the bigot brothers?
It’s hardly a level playing field.
It’s disappointing obviously to lose but we had a fair few chances tonight. We always needed to get the first goal and take it from there. Even then the odds are stacked against us.
I believe we were 20-1 to win tonight- if not more.
get a grip ffs.
I understand your disappointment, having gone to the match on such a freezing night, and enduring a heavy defeat. I merely listened to the first half on the wireless. Hope you can thaw out soon.

Radio back on, gave up at half time. Saints back to Jellyfish FC. Useless.
-
Neither at the game nor seeing any footage, but coverage on bbc radio is torture. Saints appear to have thrown the towel in already. Poor show.

What would you change that would increase our chances of scoring ?
Sign a centre forward.

Goal down already !

Given that line up, Saints very unlikely to score. Strongly suspect a defeat, which is hardly a surprise. Form dipping badly in recent weeks. Hope to be proved wrong.
-
Don’t score enough goals when chances arrive, so pretty sure we will lose this one. Away form is miserable anyway so hope we can beat Dundee on Saturday.
-
Saw game on Alba and Saints came right into it last half hour but yet again nothing up front. That’s going to cost us a top six place as usual. Hearts were hanging on at the end and they are not a great team by any stretch. Had a couple of nameless teams been denied the penalty we should have had, the papers and radio would be discussing it endlessly. Definitely need to win the cup tie as I think another couple of league defeats are coming up. Why sign another defender when we need a centre forward.? Just asking, like.
-
Seems a lot of Hearts fans don’t like us and hope we go bust. They are also confident of victory tomorrow. Think we ought to roll up the sleeves and get stuck in. Not particularly confident but there’s nothing to be afraid of, judging by Saturdays game. BTW the prices being charged are outrageous.
-
Enjoyable game and a very decent crowd yet again. Really ought to have been a few up at half time but without a goal scorer that’s likely to happen. Didn’t fancy the sub who came on, messed up a great chance , then was himself subbed. Need better than that. Also need to keep eleven on the park.
-
First time at Rugby Park in a few years and first away game for a couple of years. Bought my ticket before the game at the ticket office, no problem. However, my seat was right in with the singing section and drum 😄, so had to move for the second half. Bit of a backs to the wall performance but suppose a point better than nothing. Won’t tire of saying this, but we desperately need a striker, absolutely nothing up front. Triers are all very well but without ability we won’t win games. Great support though. 👍

Get Ayunga off. He's making an arse of everything
He is hopeless. Robinson should have taken him off the minute he missed the penalty. Genuinely far off the standard required for our league. Capt Sparra was our best player but yet again , even with an extra man, we almost threw it away. Great 3 pts nevertheless. Phew !!

Just like in any other sport, Australia are never easily beaten. It’s not their main pursuit but they put eg Scotland in the shade with their fighting spirit. Well done Oz. 😋👍

Couldn’t beat ten men. Sums it up.

Agree with most of that, but we will never score that amount of goals with those forwards. Wouldn’t be surprised that a game we ought to win will be much harder than expected. Away form is woeful, remember.
