Confirmation of a sad truth: Obika is actually our best striker. ☹️

Played much better after we went down to 10 men.

Liam Buchanan running amok today.

I wish we had taken a chance on him years ago.

Far from the best performance, far from a classic but job done. Well done Saints on progressing to the next round.

Nothing sad about it. We're lucky to have a striker who has a half decent scoring record given the service he gets.

Going to 10 men might stir the remainder of the team to get their arses intae gear...

 

daft, unfounded optimism, I know...

Should be 1st name on the the team sheet every week. 

As Goalkeeper ?

It’s hard to tell, Kilmarnock and Hamilton have struggled big time in this competition, if we are not progressing in the league come January then maybe time for a change 

TBH Couldnt care less what Kilmarnock or Hamilton do. Only interested in us. And we were dire. QP were more up for it than us. McPherson was poor. But he wasn't on his own Straight arm is not a sending off. This ref is well known for being poor. Out of 10... 3.

Looking for a comfortable win to finish up a group campaign that has been a bit lacklustre at times & would like to see Ryan Flynn get some game time.

As ever - COYS!

Glass just a wee bit more than half full!

Correct. Today was his 49th Saints appearance and his 17th goal.

A goal in fewer than every three games is as good as we'll get.

You know all about goalkeepers.

And unfortunately, I was never consulted.

Really bored watching us this season. Terrible to watch and we don’t create chances . I suppose we limp on but loses to Livingston and Aberdeen are looking very likely on our current form. Nothing there today at all until obika rescued us. Flat and frankly not good enough.

If he had decent service his stats would be amazing

[ScotstounSaint]

If he had decent service his stats would be amazing

Would be good to get his contract extended. Only just turned 30 so a good few years left in him.

[Eric Arthur Blair]

We won't be seeded for the next round.

The bigot brothers, Aberdeen, Motherwell, Hearts, Dunfermline, Livingston and one of Hibs(win tomorrow)/Dundee (win or penalties win)/Ross County (Hibs win on pens) will be the eight seeds.

Non-seeds...us, Saintees, Ayr, two of Hibs (if it's a penalties win tomorrow or Dundee win)/Ross County (if Dundee win or win on pens),/Dundee (if Hibs win), Falkirk, Arbroath and Alloa.

So pleased I stuck with my boycott of ppv for away games.
My humour on Saturday evenings has improved remarkably since I started this.

Will continue buying our home matches, not because it’s entertaining, more of a charitable donation....

JG needs to settle on his best starting 11 and formation.
No idea what’s wrong with the players but there’s little evidence of urgency on the pitch.
They don’t look interested.
They don’t look happy.

Results and performances need to improve. And soon.

At least we won the group and go into the next round.

These games didn't boost the confidence of the players as we'd hoped, certainly haven't boosted the confidence of the support.

Fingers crossed we get another weak team as it's hard to see us beating any half decent team right now.

 

[Buddymarvellous]

I see the Beeb still cannae cope with that extra point for penalties - Partick should be above M**ton

[smcc]

I suspect the time stamp is relevant!
