The team's performance in the away league that night was the best, by a country mile, in what was a horrible season. To hold such a good side to 0-0 on their on patch was tremendous. Mind you, those of us who saw the game realised that we'd be up against it in Paisley.
The booking of blue crayon boy and his suspension for the 2nd leg was critical. Mechelen clearly spotted him as our key player and goaded him into a daft booking, aided by some strange refereeing, of course.
Still, if we could only have those problems now....
