At Tynecastle today

Brilliant result, hopefully we're back on track now!

[Smithers Jones]

Fantastic 3 points. A bit of a shaky 15 mins at the start of the second half but we saw it out. I've been a big critic, but I thought O'Hara was very good today. The difference in the team is clear to see now that we have some width. The last 4 or 5 weeks has been more like us.

[guinness]

Really enjoyed that.  Thought first half we were very good and deserved t o b e ahead. Aberdeen all over us for a lot of t he second half but we stuck in and got th e goal. Still not sure about the gam e starting an hour late. Was talking to a number of Aberdeern supporters before th e match who would have to leave at half time because they had an engagement at six oc!ock. I cannot remember a kick off being delayed in that manner before.

Good result, pass marks for all the players. Just wish we'd start the 2nd half of games better. Deserved the 3 points playing against 12 men. Beaton is the worst referee ever!!!!!!!!

Had a wee sneaky feeling......................................Get in there.

I find myself in a dilemma about this game.

Obviously want the Saints to win, need to win, but for first time I can remember, I don’t want Aberdeen to loose either. They are on a great run and challenging both the Ugly Sisters. Would love to see them take it all the way to the end of the season  I cannot see any other teams in the league going on such a string run to challenge the Ugly Sister stranglehold  

love of the Buddies v dislike of the Ugly Sisters??

A strange "dilemma" that you are unsure if the team you support could lose and you would feel reasonably happy?

I find it totally weird that the Old Firm have invaded your mindset so much that you'd see us lose 3 points to satisfy your obsession, although you are not alone.

Anyhow, a brilliant 3 points, our recent form, 3 wins and a draw from 4 games (and an undeserved defeat at Ibrox) surely should keep the doubters, not including elvis as he's barely human, at bay after screaming a few weeks ago.

The manager and players deserve great credit,.

9 and 10 points above Hearts and Hibs, very satisfying.

[Saint@Johnstone]

Tremendous result today, beat a good team and deservedly so. 

[stlucifer]

We thoroughly deserved that victory. We went off the rails a wee bit after the red card fiasco, which didn't even merit the yellow it was reduced to, but we grew back into it and eventually got what we deserved. Olusanya was a nuisance to Aberdeen's defence all day long and took his goal really well. Two wins in a row for the first time in a long time. Well done all.

[portmahomack saint]

As I said before the riches of 4th place are achievable this season right now were definitely in the mix for it 

[eastlandssaint]

A thoroughly deserved victory against the once famous Aberdeen, well done you Saints

Aye, keep the faith mate. 

Some supporters need to visit the "Faith" shop. 😉

Something quite refreshing about playing a team that hasn’t lost for ages rather than a team that hasn’t won for ages. 
2-1 Saints. 

Well done mate, spot on. 

[Dare]

Great win for us and we look a lot more balanced since Kiltie and McMennamin came back into the side. Ayunga put in a good cameo when he came on and hopefully he can rediscover some form as well.

Not much between the teams in this league and credit to Robbo on how he has us set up - a win next week and we are right in the mix 

[Scott-Leeds]

It was honestly treacherous travelling yesterday, really difficult to get to the motorway…. then multiple tricky areas but despite the extra 2 hours to get there and the delay to kick off?

Magic wee day and really positive substitutions playing to win as opposed to try not lose is great

 

Hope you won a few quid Faraway 😃

 

 

[Swiss_Saint]

Was impressed with the Aberdeen managers interview, instead of the usual bollox many managers spit out I found him to be honest in his appraisal of the game.

I did mate and I was thinking about you on the journey home, glad your safe.

Got back around midnight and all snow was gone and it was 15 degrees !!  

Always good watching highlights after a win, but I genuinely didn’t think we would lose yesterday 

As said above, Aberdeen manager gave a good interview and basically said we deserved it which was a decent interview 

Incidentally, Arbroath sitting joint top but tight all the way down to seventh

It's funny you say that as my Aberdeen supporting mates have been as impressed with him off the field as the teams performances. 

They said there's a small element, can you believe it, that were whining about him after yesterday. 🙄

Ha ha, we’ve got the same element. Never happy but f**k ‘em. If moaning is your thing you could do it for nothing without bothering the ears of actual supporters.
