Typical winger with consistency the usual problem, he can seriously rape a full back, following week and he's got his boots tied together and does come across as being uninterested, he's got the attributes to do more and he does have a chip on his shoulder as proven with us and Livvy, the better players usually have. 53 minutes ago, Div said: Don't really like seeing us go all billy big baws, we are still in a relegation battle and we shouldn't forget that! The bookies I'll guess will have you down for 3pts in the next 4 games, they do say the bookies are never wrong... The timing of the remaining games for St Mirren aren't great, still doesn't matter a jot if St Mirren perform but bar the Hibs game(league trophy tho) the opposition should be up for it.

Stu Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 38 minutes ago, FTOF said: There has been huge pressure on us since we were eight points behind our nearest relegation rivals (Ayr). The team are well used to it. Even though we're now four points ahead of Ayr and we're in a much better situation, I'm sure the players will be able to respond in a positive manner, in a game that has less pressure on it compared to Tuesday's game. Arguably there is less pressure on us than there has been for a while - the last few months have all been must win stuff and a defeat would be a disaster, however that isn't the case on Saturday. The flip side is we now have something to lose, which wasn't the situation a week ago. Hopefully the players are still focused after a derby win getting us out of the bottom two rather than thinking the job is done. The comments from Ross and Sutton suggest there's nothing to worry about on that score. 10 minutes ago, MrDust said: Typical winger with consistency the usual problem, he can seriously rape a full back, following week and he's got his boots tied together and does come across as being uninterested, he's got the attributes to do more and he does have a chip on his shoulder as proven with us and Livvy, the better players usually have.

Ayr should have been up for it and were not. Morton should have been more up for it than any team seeing it was also a derby and, by all reports, were not. Queen of the South had sod all to play for but were the better side for most of the first half against us. This league is just ridiculously unpredictable at the moment. On paper the case could be made for Saturday being our hardest remaining game as, after us, Falkirk are the form team in the league. Wouldn't be unhappy happy with a draw.

NorthBank Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Yes mate you aren't going to get me disagreeing it's been great fun but we should be under no illusions about how tough a game we have on our hands on Sat.Don't really like seeing us go all billy big baws, we are still in a relegation battle and we shouldn't forget that! No billy big baws from me Div. I know it will be tough. But our defence has improved substantially. We may lose goals but we no longer wrap them up in Xmas paper. Should be an open game and one I am looking forward to. See you there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JinkyBairn Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 That time St Mirren humped us 2-zip on that relegation decider was absolutely boak. That feeling the week after at Inverness tho. Scenes. "Jackie McNamara across...Higdooooon!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayr are very hot or cold, Morton's bubble has burst for now and Queens (see Ayr) You'd rather play Hibs like Ayr will in a non event in a couple of weeks, it depends what Ayr will turn up tho. As for us on Saturday, I very much doubt Aird will start, it will be Craigen or my prediction of Taiwo, if Houstie watched St mirren's danger on the left on Tuesday, he loves a cancel job.

Gaz FFC Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 I'm looking forward to playing a decent football team who don't just camp out in their own half. The fact they travel in decent numbers is also a nice touch. Buzzing for this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where's best to park? come off the motorway go right at the earlsgate roundabout and as you drive towards the stadium where the car garages are on your left turn right into the industrial estate, anywhere in there is fine.

I think Eckersley will be back as Stellios,Hero that he is can be a good sub to bring on and Steady Adam will be in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthBank Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 It's got to be Stelios. He played a blinder v Hibs, scored 2 and was then dropped. He was excellent v Morton scoring 1 and should have had a second. You can't keep dropping players after a good performance. Eck lost his place due to his own stupidity. Let Stelios start.

Probably still the best away performance I have witnessed at the Falkirk stadium, it was relentless attacking. Falkirk couldn't get out their own box.

Aberdeen 5-0 in the league cup, Hibs scudded us 5-0 in the Scottish cup and Celtic thumped us 4-1 in the league were all miles better than that imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Believe The Hype Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 I thought we were absolutely dreadful against Aberdeen, rather than they put in a fantastic performance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
