Sweeper07 Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 1 minute ago, TopCat said: Hamilton have been above us all season. We’ve played them 3 times under Kearney this season. Lost 2 (including once in Paisley) ad drew 1. They’re just better than us. Of course it’s possible we could turn the corner and suddenly finish above them. Not likely though. 11th gives us a shot and would take that now. Strangely, I think against Hamilton, the Duck would have been good up top (if he kept his elbows down). He is physical and their back 3 wrestled in there as expected today. By then McGinn should be up to full fitness too. We will see in the return match hopefully - but they are a poor side - not as good as we are - though we do need to attack crosses in the opposition box and stop shooting over the crossbar or wide of the target so often...

TPAFKA Jersey 2 Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 IF we end up in a play off, a lot of people seem to be taking it for granted that we’ll play Utd. II certainly would not be writing off Inverness CT. They are bang on form and have already taken care of Utd in the cup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately our poor start to the season means we are playing catch-up for 10th. I also watched that game last night and it struck me that we might have a better chance if we still had 2 of the 3 ex St Mirren players on show - Ross Stewart and Paul McMullan.

northstbuddie Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 On the plus side - we should have a fit Gary McKenzie, Stephen McGinn and Kyle Magennis for the final 5 games. - that should make a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul torfason Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 So wonder if Kearney still sticks by his ludicrous decision to rest players against a Celtic team that was there for the beaten, crazy decision Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balmullo Bud Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 Result suits Accies more than us today, but that point and them not getting 3 means they’re still in our sights. Still a long way to go and I wouldn’t be writing Dundee off yet either. Today’s performance was a massive improvement to the last time we played them on their living room carpet, so not what we were all hoping for, but not a disaster. Still think they’re will be a lot more twists and turns. Supporting the Buddies has never been good for our health. COYS!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muzek stood out for me, Popescu and Baird all played well, Hladky superb when needed, Flynn yes, Dreyer best he has played yet and confident penalty, Erhahon decent. Mullen and Lyons the poorest today though . . Thought Ethan was poor as well particularly second half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celtic definitely at their weakest just now, so does make you wonder about Wednesday’s team selection again. No point on looking back I suppose, Livi away next which won’t be easy.

Wilbur Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 A defeat today would have been disastrous. Disaster avoided - we must now aim to win every remaining fixture. Dundee fans will be gutted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oaksoft Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 (edited) Given we spent so long in 12th place and at one point were 5 points behind Dundee I would have bitten your hand off to avoid 12th. That is our first point at Accies in years and people are still complaining. 10th is absolutely within our grasp. Remember Hamilton have a very tough derby against Motherwell to come and they have to visit us as well. 4 points have been banked this week. Dundee now need a minimum of a 2-result swing to overtake us, given the goal differences, with 5 games to go. I'd say that was a f**king good 7 days.

gstretchuk Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 Fairly enjoyable game, Saints better team first half, Hamilton better team 2nd half...lyon's i'm afraid nowhere near the level we need and was very poor...two wing backs got up park well but delivery's into box were terrible.......over the game draw fair result as we had 2 cleared of line....Dundee, Hamilton and ourselves miles behind the rest of the league...

gc_SMFC Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 Nothing today suggested that we're capable of beating Accies post split. You can miss those sort of chances, and also give up those chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TPAFKATS Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 I said weeks ago we could go the whole season without beating Hamilton and still finish above them.We still can. A draw today on that shite pitch isn't the end of the world.15 points to play for, much better goal difference for us. Onwards and (hopefully) upwards!

DLBud Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 Draw was probably a fair result but goals change games and Lyons chances were huge moments in the game.2 weeks off will help with the injuries so you’d expect McGinn and Flynn to be fully fit by then. If Magennis comes into contention by then we’ll have some real competition for places.Hopefully GMac also ready as Muzek at left wing back instead of Ethan would help.Cooke has to start in stead of Jackson. He offers so little he’s not even nuisance value.What’s happened to McAllister? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
