    BIG BEN got a reaction from Dare in Harry Davis   
    This for me is the main difference. We now look like a unit as opposed to four individuals and it's all down to leadership. Think Harry and McGinn are the main reasons for this. Would love to see Harry back next season

    We should have one late day each week for people who want to roll up to the stadium and pick them up but are unable to do it in the middle of the day

    a real defender who knows how to defend!
    If at all possible, I would build the defence around him and keep him for as long as possible!
    Also noticed the improved communication throughout the team, with players talking to one another throughout the game... none moreso than Davis.

    We are just over a week away from a national final and looking on the official website the ticket office is closed on Saturday morning. We should be trying to assist people not put barriers in their way/

    We are very poor at PR. I had hoped things would change with the new regime but it's same old.

    Faraway, this thread is same same but different.                                                    The reason a new thread is started is hopefully the powers to be will read this and understand the stupidity.  Get down to St Mirren Park and support your team.

    This will be a real test to see how far we have improved. When we have been in a good position to gain ground on teams above us, in traditional St Mirren fashion we have shot ourselves in the foot. Let's hope we don't do that tomorrow. COYS!

    A mix of confidence and alertness of the difference between this and overconfidence is an essential element of a professional and winning team. Feet on the ground. Respect all opponents and work our asses off. A good run. Let's hope we keep it up. We now have the talent within the squad.

    What a stupid post !!
     
    So what does  preparing for League one looking like..... Give all the staff 3 months notice. Contact the agents of the players and tell them that their clients will be not offered a new contract so best planning elsewhere, tell all the loanees that's its byebye.
    Cancel any expenses, or maybe even increase gate money ...............
     
    Or........................ With 13 games and 39 points, a new team, more options, a determined Chairman and Coach and a never say die attitude........... Win at all costs with supporters doing just that
    Results are just that PAST TENSE.........................
    Support the team TC and stop lauding you neg rubbish. Black and White is the colours , not our relegation

    Not to burst the bubble on positivity, though still think there is a fair bit of pressure on the players to get an 'expected' win against East Fife this weekend, a team who are flying at the moment. I'm hoping though that an extra week of training together we will come good.
    The game versus The New Saints sends the winner into a final of a cup and that also has its expectations. I do feel however this new group of players along with the ones we kept on, need to show a performance that every game from this Saturday till the end of the season is a cup final.

    Reading through the various topics (too many to reply individually) debating our chances of catching Ayr most people are missing a very important point.
    They are using our results so far this season as a marker for potential results between now and end of the season.
    We got rid of 10 players who contributed to these terrible performances and brought in 11 players who were prepared to sign for a team in January 7 points adrift at bottom of the league this suggests to me these guys are up for the challenge the big question is? Are the fans and Jack Ross?
    As far as I'm concerned Saturday was basically our first game of the season new team new tactics luckily for us we have 2 cup games to get the pre/new season rustiness out the way then our biggest game in years comes against Ayr which I'm confident we will win and we can have a great run from there on in.
    Nobody in this league is unbeatable and I'm looking forward to a new St Mirren team taking points off Hibs/Falkirk/Morton and Dundee Utd especially as we go on a great run to finish 9th.
    We will do this but probably get beat in play off by Jim Goodwin's Alloa.

    Daft as it sounds to drop our top goal scorer but there is some logic here. Smith was taken back from his loan at Utd because McInnes was not happy with the amount of game time he was getting  so it may be safe to assume that part of the deal was he plays a majority of games. Sutton an Loy didn't look comfirtable together yesterday.
    Loy spent a lot of the game too close to Sutton, sometimes standing almost static not knowing whether to peel left or right . Now if we persevere with that partenership , it may come good , also if we continue to play high balls , the option of Smith & Sutts might work but if we want to play the sort of footy we did at Dundee last week ( I know neither smith nor Loy played) then Loy & Smith might be a better option with Sutton as the impact sub as BB said.
    On the plus side , at least we appear to have some viable options now.

    This is the kind of shite that really annoys me on this forum. It was clear for anyone who was at the game that he had a hamstring injury. Such is his importance to the team he actually went back on. He has also been our best player week in week out. Watch him win EVERY header and the way he attacks the ball and tell me his heart is not in it.
    Utter nonsense, like the vast majority of posts on this forum!!

    He's asked to do a lot of unnecessary work, is back for every corner, show up both lines for every through. However I do think that Loy is wasted playing deep to accommodate Sutton. Loy and Smith might be a better partnership and Sutton could be a good impact player from the subs bench

    If we don't win next week it is difficult to see us being able to aim any higher than catching Ayr and going into the playoffs. Another fabulous result for Dumbarton today.
