Fife Cheats V Saints 24-9-2016 - Live on TV

Can't remember a group of St Mirren players who cared less about what they did on the park than the current team. That was like watching BB football at junior section level, could have been about 12-10 at the final whistle, the only step up from junior section BB level was you didn't have 20 outfield players chasing the ball in 1 big group all over the park!

Im taking heart from that, all we need is the defence getting a bit of organisation drilled into them, which lets face any manager with half a brain will do first. Tonight we have shown we will score goals! So onwards and upwards! 

I suppose a positive spin could be that we will witness history as St Mirren play in the 3rd tier for the first time in club history.

How can anyone enjoy that? The defending from both sides was absolutely dire and I can only assume Hutton had 4-3 on his coupon today. What a pass to set up the winner. 

Aye but Stuart, did you not hear the chairman at half-time? He's going to build a coffee shop! What more do you want?

Actually, don't answer that.

No surprise the scoreline really. Our defence is a joke. In John Sutton we have the 15-20 goal striker we craved, but what use is that when we ship so easily at the back?

We need a manager who can come in and build from the back. We need Gus MacPherson.

His defence restricted the mighty Stranraer to only 2 today, master tactician....

A stray pass across your 6 yard box... Jesus christ son what the f**k are you playing at ?

We're absolutely disgusting. This is worse than Coughlin's era. No doubt.


On the positive we did that today with no manager , scored three away from home [emoji15] Bound to get better, maybe give a wee scare to some of the part time teams in the league.

In junior section BB you wouldn't have that either Dibble. They play 7 a side :P

You're right though. Neither side could defend at all. The failure to close out crosses out wide, the inability to track the man they were marking, and some god awful positioning. Why the hell did Jack Baird show Reilly towards goal in the first half? Honestly I would have struggled to accept that kind of defensive performance from under 12s yet this squad has two former Scottish full caps in the defence and two ex Scotland Under 21 internationalists. 

Good luck to the next manager, whoever the hell he is. He'll f**king need it

Gus will have jumped up the queue after that defensive performance anyway

Don't know how. His Queens Park defence didn't cover themselves in any glory this afternoon against Stranraer and anyone paying any attention will have noticed that his side has scored just 5 times this season, less than one goal per league match

They're playing at a level which Queens Park have always struggled at.
