    Quite a lot a pedantry and pettiness on this thread. Alex Rae did us a turn last season but was hopeless this season.

    Jack Ross with the backing of the new board, all of the fans (season ticket holders, pay at the gate fans and the 1,300+ SMISA members), his own eye for a player and being the wheeler and dealer (even on LinkedIn) we were promised has got the team playing an attractive brand of attacking football and considering the hopeless position we were in I for one am delighted (and not at all bothered by the hopeless punctuation resulting in one long rant of a sentence).

    Time to grow up, enjoy some positivity, not rise to the bait and enjoy the moment for what it is...a fantastic turnaround for which all of those involved (listed above and the players) should be proud. Let's just all hope we're battling to avoid the play offs at the other end of the table next year! [emoji6]

    Disagree, I thought that was a fantastic team performance. There was not a passenger among them tonight.

    McGinn really is a cut above. Man of the match in my book, didn't put a foot wrong and did all the grafting.

    Points for improvement, Billy the fish needs to get his confidence back. Flapped at two crosses which didn't directly lead to the two goals but Utd kept pressure on and scored with next opportunity twice.

    Comedy moment - Stelios getting man of the match on the big screen, presumably for his immaculate hairdo...

    Worst bit - injury to Davis, but when the opportunity came Baird didn't put a foot wrong and linked well with McKenzie.

    Best bits - 3 goals (fantastic Mallan free kick), another win, another win at home and the commitment all over the park...

    Full backs deserve a special mention for being on top of their wingers and giving them no time on the ball at all.

    The commitment shown tonight needs to be the standard for every game. If it is we'll get there, if it's not it's going to be a long road yet...

    If this type of openness with the fans is not a good advert for the new model of running the club then I really don't know what more can be done. Yes some will complain about Div being in the know and others not being but this quality of input coming directly from the club makes a massive difference in keeping the fans engaged and pulling in the same direction.

    Bart Simpson got a reaction from Gordon Urquhart in St Mirren v Morton 31st December 2016   
    Do we deserve to go down? If we finish bottom at the end of the season then yes we do.

    That result was gutting specifically because of the position we were in and the abysmal second half performance especially after the sending off.

    For those not there or those who missed it, the game pretty much swung on the injury to Rocco Quinn and the resultant sending off (running next to Morton player, stumbled and fell, whilst the Morton player took a stride forward and flicked his heel/studs up into his face as he fell forward onto the ground). Prior to that we were marginally ahead, but Morton were on top in the first part of he second half. Despite going down to 10 men Morton regrouped and looked even better. We on the other hand surrendered the middle of the park and dropped deeper and deeper inviting wave after wave of attacks forward.

    Morton are third in the league for a reason. They clearly can get results that was self evident at full time today.

    In my opinion we lack the balance between the youthful exuberance and experience. Our experienced players seem to go missing or make even more silly mistakes than the youngsters do which is inexcusable when it happens so frequently.

    Make no mistake, we have turned a corner in terms of the football we are playing, but if results like today keep on coming we are going down. Like last term we need to start winning ugly and at all costs. There are the makings of a good few footballers in that team but they are lacking the leadership and guile to get them over the line in games like today.

    In summary...
    Quinn going off changed the game. We should have done much better against 10 men.
    It was brutal losing those 2 points in the way that we did.
