Saints 2 Staggies 0

Estimated Attendance 6387

3 points required. Just to stop this slide. Ross County are a team we really need to be beating at home. Good signs of improvements today, let's just knock a couple of these chances in and watch our confidence grow. I'm with Shull. 2.0. Toy, and Scott.

Think I'll make a rare appearance for this one. 

Fingers crossed we'll have 3 points from Wednesday. 

[beyond our ken]

Wednesday night will be more competitive than the Ibrox encounter and I really hope the side can take some encouragement from yesterday as the competitive edge is the biggest shortcoming in recent matches.  RC are a different outfit under the current coaching team and will be up for it

[fmckinn]

2-1  Saints.

I hope for a bit more fight, just not involving family members or daft wee boys & girls in a chippie this time.

Ha ha ha. Nothing that involves the beak!

This should be another win, County are a stuffy team but we’re at home!

[faraway saint]

Saints 17/20 with County 7/2.

BTTS and Saints to win is 10/3. 😉

[Scott-Leeds]

A convincing 4-0 win 

I know Faraway will have a wee flutter on my prediction 😀

33/1 for that mate. 

I'll let you stick some cash on it, I'm generous that way. 😉

How many penalties have O'Hara and Kiltie missed for Saints?

I'm never confident with O'Hara and his technique, but I would have put money on Kiltie scoring. 🤐😥

Both pens were saved not missed Bud

[Swiss_Saint]

if you go down the middle I feel you should always go high as if you go low like kiltie did there is always a chance for a tall keeper to still save with his legs. Still the better team so far but dont feel we have the same level as Wednesday night

[Qarsaan]

Well. Let's hope the second half may be a bit more entertaining.

Fair point...

But O'Hara made it easy for the keeper and Kiltie going down the middle at that height gives any keeper the chance of a save with the legs.

 

Let me rephrase... How many penalties have we failed to score from in the last two seasons? 

[DougJamie]

3rd game in 6 days showing...need to go to bench

100% agree re the penalty.

Three games in a week is hard going when your success is based on an intense pressing game

No sure mate but I had the fear when Kiltie had that run up, and their goalie is 9'6".

[Qarsaan]

Well. Was that not forgettable.

 

[Swiss_Saint]

scrappy game, Saints the better team overall but too many poor final balls left the fans wanting. Nowhere near the intensity of the Rangers or Fakes game but guess we couldnt keep that up 3 times in a week.

 

Onwards and upwards
