An exciting match in prospect with comfortably the best of the rest in the league this season visiting Perth against a much improved St Johnstone side. Motherwell and Livi are probably the only two sides in the league this season who are exceeding expectations. I'm not convinced Well are that great, just a good well organised team who work hard and have been far less shite than all the rest of us. Is that harsh? A fairly nondescript game during our dreadful run at the start of the season finished 1-0 to Well, then at Fir Park Saints were well on top without creating anything until losing a goal, and Motherwell went onto hammer us 4-0 as we crumbled. Gallagher destroyed us in the air that day when Duffy and Kerr were centre backs and Murray Davidson was also out. Hopefully we'll be far stronger defending crosses and set pieces with Kerr, Gordon, McCart and Booth to choose from. Will we go 3 at the back? Motherwell play at a really high tempo, so getting a hold of the ball in midfield up against their pressure will be key. McCann and Craig dem boys. Looking forward to it, we've been playing well since the winter break and started to bag quite a few goals, so hopefully a few extra folk are tempted out to the glorious spectacle of a McDiarmid Park bathed in floodlights.
