I think you have to look at Saints in the perspective of the entire league and for me the standard has dropped off a cliff. Motherwell, Hibs, Aberdeen, Livingston and Ross County will all be saying this is their worst team in decades. Even the much lauded St Mirren, Killie and Hearts don't actually worry you when playing them, same with the OF. Given how bad we are, even small improvements are enough to start climbing the league because it's that bad. Watching some highlights from when Saints beat Rangers 25 years ago and the quality of player on the pitch, for both teams, was night and day to what we have now. Completely agree that the standard of Saints attacking play is brutal but at least with him bringing some pace into the team we might be able to get teams on the back foot. We'll need to work with our CMs to get them to move the ball into the final 3rd quicky though otherwise it's pointless having pace.

I was thinking of doing the same. Has anyone had any issues getting in the away end in the past?

Probably cheaper than a day at Disney which will be the alternative

I was able to get in initially when they were released but now I get an error accessing that site saying i can't buy them from my region. I take it you can access it? Pour des raisons de sécurité, le site n'est pas accessible dans la zone où vous vous situez. (For security reasons, this site is not accessible in the region you are located)

I'll be in Paris with my family whilst Scotland are playing France in Lille. I was looking at options of getting tickets to go along but we're not members of the Scotland Supporters Club (and its fully subscribed). Any suggestions on the best way to try and get away tickets? I was hoping given it's a Friendly so close to Spain away that the game might not sell out.

Might be controversial but for me Gordon doesn't start. Those 3 are our best back 3. Gordon is a very good defender but I think Mitchell works better with Considine and McGowan as it allows McGowan to step out the with the ball. Mitchell doesn't do that nearly as well at RCB.

We may win this but is Callum Davidson the most risk averse manager in the entire world? Too scared to even play his new signings is a worrying place to be. Can you survive being this cautious?

Genuinely Davidson could pick the team then piss off up the road. No in game management at all. He doesn't know and isn't prepared to change things during a match. I actually feel sorry for some of the players being forced to play out of position. Booth and Brown put a power of work in all night but they aren't wingers and don't have the ability to go past a man yet who is this formation is supposed to support them? Mccart and Cleary. Jesus wept. How big a risk would it have been to take off McCart with 20 to go and put on May or Middleton and go 4-3-3. He's too conservative and that's precisely why we have 11 goals. And he's happy with that last night.

Keep trying to write a post but I've honestly got nothing left to say about this team, formation and manager. We're screwed.

Motherwell transfer strategy: Who are St Johnstone bidding for this week? We'll go for him.

Now linked with Melker Hallberg at Hibs. Don't recall him ever standing out?

I think the last person you want in the team when you're desperate at the bottom of the league with disciplinary issues in the squad and a general feeling the referees are against you is a sulky, temperamental striker. He's not even got an impressive goal record.

I read an article with David McMillan at the weekend and he said he was left sided.

Wouldn't be disappointed to see McCart head off now, we are well covered in the left side of defence between Cleary, Booth and Gallacher. If we can convince Hibs to pay a little bit of money for him then even better.

Obviously a little bit of an unknown but Tony Gallagher is the type of singing that at least shows a little bit of forward planning. Good prospect at Falkirk, a good age, Scottish, will be well coached at Liverpool and had a fairly successful spell in the MLS with favourable reports. He was also very close to signing for Sunderland in the summer. Gallagher and Cleary certainly more positive signings than the shit-show recruitment in the midfield area.
