Hibernian v St Mirren Premiership 23/12/20

[shull]

Nothing to fear from Ross's Team.

Hibees 1 Saints 3

[Sonny]

St Mirren reserves have a decent forward line but reckon we have more in midfield and defence. An Away win for the big team.

Long time since we have been positive about a trip to Easter Road.

I'd be happy with a point but a win would be icing on the cake.

Probably in the grand scheme of things more important to win at RC but given how we have been playing I think we are well able for Hibs who blow hot and cold

[Cumbriansaint72]

Apparently they have lost quite a few points from winning positions this season already which is a trait that JR had at Sunderland as well.

[Scott-Leeds]

Sticking with my excellent predictions [emoji2] as well as form

Hibernian 2-3 St Mirren

[oaksoft]

We should be aiming to take at least a point from this game and should be fearing nobody.

Think folk need to well calm down, i think best we can hope for in next 3 fixtures is 4 points but realistically maybe even 1 point...lets consolidate league place before talking rubbish about european places.

[MenstrieSaint]

Think we should be keeping it tight. Also we should ensure that we have our strongest eleven for Dingwall. 

[munoz]

Would probably take a draw in this one, although there's no reason why we cant go and get the 3pts. 

 

[spankin_panda]

WoulD be delighted to leave with a point. Anything more would be an amazing bonus. COYS

[saintargyll]

A draw would be good if we could draw 3pts from this game 😊

Slightly unambitious patter here chaps.

3 points easily achievable here. Down with this “leaving with a point” pish.

Totally agree... as I said here below and in a building number of similar posts since then:

I agree.

Saints will still climb into the top 6 with this group of players... if they are well-organised (and not suffering from cv19!).

It's these clubs you have to feel sorry for... Livvi, RC, DU and St Johnstone...   

ETA: And Hibs.

If folk can't allow themselves to get carried away with sport then what is the fecking point of anything?

You are dressing up fear of building up your hopes only to see them crushed as "realism". Try living.

There is being realistic and just plain daft. All this nonsence about european places and winning here and there. Try consolidation in the league first as for years it's been a relegation battle....

Of course there is plain daft. That's what sport is all about.

We are 3 points from the last European slot apparently. No reason for not aiming for BOTH targets of avoiding relegation and aiming for Europe. There's no logic in doing them one at a time other than fear of being embarrassed and quite frankly you can kick that shitty attitude in the sea.

Don't let fear of being hurt smother the joy from life. Life a little. You'll feel better for it.

What's the matter with being plain daft or even normally daft.  🤪

I’ve adopted the plain daft attitude to St. Mirren and Scotland my entire football supporting life and I don’t regret any of the several sickening blows both have dealt me due to having that attitude.

It’s the rare highs and the rare sickening blows that make the ubiquitous mundanity bearable.

I don't think i ever got over the 9-man cup final, seriously haunts me to this day. One of the worst moments of my life.
