Not when the goalkeeper is behind him ready to save it emoji23.png. Suppose we'll never know if he would have saved it. 

If that's the case then the player shouldn't have been sent off as he didn't stop a goal. It's a ridiculous rule that gives the Chester a chance to gain from it as they did today

Would need to see it back but Ayunga was nearer the 6 yard line, Carson definitely behind him. He did deny a goal scoring opportunity but if he can save it, surely the keeper was saving it unless his view was blocked by Ayunga.

We didn't deserve to win that today but there has been plenty of times we have played much better and lost so you take it and move on. Concerned with a few of the injuries we seem to have picked up but on we to go Govan next week.

Fully expected us to screw up after beating Livi so that's a great result. Would have taken a point after the red card, even though the penalty was missed, so to get all three is tremendous. 

Guessing our best ever start to an SPL/Premiership season?

Loved that. Clinical from Saints as I can’t recall many, if any, other shots on target. Thank god the second half fair picked up. Livi flattered to deceive, had a lot of the ball without making Carson do anything but still never deserved to lose that game. Pleasing to win that kind of game especially when we were rotten compared to previous weeks. 

Ayunga will be a big miss for next week, which is a shame. Hopefully Main is back, think Robinson’s mind will be made up to go with Kiltie and a proper striker now. Strain likewise be a big miss if he is out even longer.

Looking at the results from last season. We have matched our league wins at home already. We only beat Aberdeen x2 Perth Saints and Dundee at home.

Previous season before that we only won 5 home games. 

It's got to be our best start in the SPL/SPFL era.

Brilliant to see us win a game where we were the poorer team for most of it, hopefully that’s a sign that we can push on and get top six this season.

I’ve been critical of Tanser but I thought he was MOTM today, he was pretty much our only cool head in defence and his set pieces were excellent in the second half. Flynn was brilliant off the bench and filled in all over the place. I think Greive was really needing a goal too.

That in the circumstances was a fantastic result. Never really in the game with midfield totally bypassed by both teams but we stuck at it and ground out what in the end was a very unlikely but utterly glorious 3 points. Squad taking a battering but who cares when you are 3rd in the league with 5 wins from 6. Thought the guys away on international duty looked leggy but by god they dug in well and fair play to Greive for his winner. No better way to repay a gaffer than that. Well chuffed tonight.

For really long spells that was just awful. Whilst it was a bit smash and grab saying it was the most undeserved win ever is just embarrassing. We dominated Motherwell far more in the first game and lost to a sucker punch.

 

Missing Ayunga and potentially Main and Strain is going to be a nightmare.

No one deserves a ‘round ye’ more than Nicky Devlin. Presumably he was missing at those last few corners we eventually scored from as he was still running the length of the main stand celebrating the equaliser. Head down straight down the tunnel come full time. Wonderful.

Poor game, 2 sides full of poor passing,If St.Mirren can play as bad as that and still take the 3 points shows how bad Livi were.Plenty effort from certain  Livi players, but too many stray balls
You could see Livi were struggling up front, Martindale done nothing about it ,just excepted it until ST.Mirren scored why?? was he playing for a 0-0.  All in all Livi probably deserved nothing from this game,too sloppy,to many players of the boil and poor decision making by Martindale....Play for a draw and you usually end up with a defeat..

George  6/10
Devlin  6/10
Obileye 4/10
Kelly   1/10  Never liked him as a player, useless ...          
Bahamboula  5/10  Has skill, but drifts out games too easily 
Oméonga    5/10  plenty of effort,no final product
Pittman    6/10  Good work rate,needs to concentrate more with the ball
Holt       5/10  Played OK,good workrate
Penrice    4/10  didn't do enough
Nouble     2/10  Off the boil,looks sluggish  and burnt out
Guthrie    2/10  Done nothing can't see him scoring  many

Shinnie   ----  Never going to score
Anderson ----  Couple of chances done well
Kelly          Never really noticed him

To be fair, most Livi fans seem to be pointing the blame at our own defending late in matches and refusal to take our chances, an issue from last season.

The biggest heads-gone, inexplicably, seems to be Div vs the Livi away crowd on Twitter

Never been noticed for huge away attendees from us.Train strike etc didn't help either.We taken less and won games.Its embarrassing but those who were there should be commended for following their team.Imo.And im just back.Well done St Mirren. 👏.

To be fair, that away support is equal to something like 20-30% of our home support. Proportionally it checks out just fine, the same as any other club. The guy running the twitter has had a total heads gone moment, outing himself with some proper Tory comments :D 

St Mirren well worth their win today, we collapsed against 10 men and should've taken a draw. If you can't bury a penalty then what chance have you got.
