Unlike everyone else on here who were obviously at the match, I just heard updates on radio so have no idea how we played but very disappointed to lose to Hibs who have shown themselves as a poor team. Oh well, that’s one chance of silverware gone, now to concentrate on league points.

Another hard fought win and a great 3 points but, by God, we don't make it easy for ourselves. We hardly won a a second ball in the second half, and we gave them so much space down our right. Their left sided players were allowed to run for f**king miles without a challenge. Even so, we're still up there!!!
And 3 goals chalked off? 3??? Mandron's was a thing of beauty. I couldn't follow the ref - he'd point one way and give the free kick the other.
Agree about the second half, it seems like that every home game, heart in the mouth. That said, a great result and fantastic show by Gogic who was immense. Felt the disallowed goals were very harsh and for the ref to take nearly 4 minutes to decide on the last one is pathetic. Big crowds make the games exciting, keep it up Saints. 👍

Good info on this thread, particularly for folk like me who are only able to view matches on normal tv. Well done. !

Can't agree with this our keeper had one decent save to make the rest were routine handling of the ball .We scored and Well keeper saved a mandron header with his legs and we should have had a second in the last minute instead.it was put over when it was easier to score .They huffed and puffed but were toothless so deserved to lose .
Just my impression from brief highlights. Obviously wrong.

From the highlights, looked like we rather stole the points but nevertheless a good result. Hope we step up the performance on Saturday against Hearts and continue the good run. 👍

Very poor by Scotland tonight and let down the big support. Some of the so called stars were invisible, the hype must have gone to their heads.

I think we are capable of winning and certainly not losing, however, I think on this occasion we will lose.
Scotland 1-3 EnglandYes, the English to win by a couple of goals I imagine.

Clarke seems to have the tactical nuance to utilise what he has at his disposal. I definitely think he's far better than his counterpart in the English setup who, I think, gets fa more praise than he deserves.
From what I can gather, the English manager isn’t particularly rated by their fans. Their ability to always qualify for tournaments just about keeps him in a job. Of course the first good team they meet sees their exit.

Decent result the other night, only saw the highlights of course. Seems the stars are in alignment for both Saints and the national team at the moment. As for the English game, a rare treat to be able to watch on my own tv, but mindful that we have a poor record against our rivals. As both teams are likely yo be made up of players from the English league, I think it would be a mistake for Clarke to field anyone from out with their top division as the difference in ability would put Scotland at a disadvantage. Just my take on it, mind.

Funny being able to watch live coverage of Wales and England on my tv. As for coverage of Scotland ?. Half an hour recorded highlights at an ungodly hour to look forward to tomorrow. Probably won’t bother.
-
Hard to judge the game having only watched the extensive highlights (was it three minutes ?) but had a feeling we wouldn’t win. Next game will be a hard one as Motherwell are doing well.
-
Great performance today, think we were the victim of VAR. This is the best Saints team for a long time, hope they keep it up.
-
Hibs look a very poor team, there for the taking and dreadfully slow. Confident for the LC quarter final.
-
Good result and a great goal from Saints. Very impressed by the Motherwell support, they got behind their team all throughout. We look a decent team these days. 👍

I’m sure if you phone the Club and explain that to them they’ll let you in for free,might even give you hospitality
Many thanks for the advice, I shall make contact tomorrow and let you know how I get on. In fact if I am able to acquire said hospitality, I shall be happy to pass this on to your good self for your kindness .👍

Not been able to acquire a match ticket yet, but this will be my fourth home game so far and although having purchased a season ticket, only one of those games is covered by that. I think that’s rather unfair and pretty mean by the club to do that. Nevertheless, hoping for a win tomorrow.
-
Good win but torture watching the last 20 minutes. Can’t seem to hold on to a lead after a good start. Was impressed with McMenamin, looks a good player.
-
Good result on Sunday, let’s keep it up this Saturday v Dundee.

Would take a draw today - our away form is a bit of a concern and having changed our entire defence I’m not sure how they will cope with Hibs attacking threat. Also please no high hopeful punt as being our main tactic today.
That’s about right. Have seen both home games but not too impressed although hard to judge as both opponents were pretty hopeless. Expecting a big improvement today.

Second goal with Strain was great. Hope he remains after transfer window closes.

Just my opinion. Was the abuse really necessary ?😺

I think Robinson is making a bad job with his signings and this will be his undoing. They all seem to be made of chocolate. Can see a change of manager in the not too distant. Ninety odd minutes to see off a non league team. Pretty pathetic.
-
A last minute decision to attend was made insightful by the brace from the debut boy. Also impressed by Sutherland, he definitely has something. Arbroath were poor and we ought to have scored many more but 4 goals is unusual for us. Still need vast improvement from the defence but it may come with time. Incidentally, got my season ticket in the post yesterday 👍

We seem to always struggle second half, particularly at home. Surely we ought to beat Killie at last on Saturday?. Can’t make the game but will be hoping for the three points.
