The ghost of Jim Morton Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 Up next we have Partick Thistle at home.. We another great chance to cement our position in the top 3,( in fact given Aberdeen are playing Celtic, and one might expect the Dons not to win, we have another chance to go second on our own) BUT, we will need to continue working hard if we are to achieve this. Home form is somewhat sketchy at times but we are good enough, that's for sure.. Looks like Muzz is a certainty to miss out. Hopefully no other injuries from Wednesdays game. Millar looked good and it would be great to see him start and finish another game.. Cannae wait.... Come on yee Saints... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candalan Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 We seem able to win against them away, but struggle to beat them here, Why, I wonder, when we are playing some of the best stuff in a few seasons at this stage of the season.

Edstar101 Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 Thistles problem just now is their central defence. None of this slow start pish, let's go at them from the start, get the crowd going Im sick of us being Saints 0 at HT at home south inch, saintee in exile and AthensSaint 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ex-montrosesaintee Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 I felt that the Dundee game was better, but we still looked tentative and nervous. After the goal at Ibroke we were the same, but the second half was brimming with confident football. I think this will continue for Saturday at least. It was like they all suddenly believed in their ability again. Doesn't take much in football, maybe it was as simple as Alston playing a blinder that lifted everyone. 4-0 saints.

slambrother Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 Really looking forward to this now. Both teams will be going into this this game on a high after good performances. Thistle always seem to come out of the traps quicker than us at McDiarmid for some reason. Would like to see us moving the ball quickly as we did against Rangers and not resorting to long balls forward to Kane. Can't see Midge losing his place as he gives us a composure we've lacked and based on his performance would it be fair not to start Alston? I would expect Macca to be in the starting line-up but who knows! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havana Saint Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 Looking forward to going. We are playing well, particularly in midfield. A tricky game v Thistle, but play as we can then another 3 points. Potentially Second on Monday morning. Fantastic stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AthensSaint Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 Plenty midfielders to fit the gap if Muzz is out. Very strong squad this season apart from upfront. Havana Saint 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlickDT Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 Games like these are what will show us if we truly have what it takes to get into the top 3 this season. I'm sure Wright and the lads know that we actually have a very, very good chance of reaching the top 3. We must keep the winning mentality going though. I'd like to see us have a real go at Thistle from the off- get Swanson on the ball early and get players close to him to support him for one-twos and drawing men away. Plenty of attacking minded players on the pitch and hopefully Millar is fit enough to make this one- our play is far superior with his ability to keep possession in the side. We seem to have a settled back four which always helps aswell. We should be confident of the three points, let's avoid a Killie slip up and get ourselves into second!

SlickDT Posted October 29, 2016 Report Share Posted October 29, 2016 Gormley home for personal reasons and misses out. I had real hope for him here, but so far it's just not worked out at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ScottMann Posted October 29, 2016 Report Share Posted October 29, 2016 Given what we needed, I was never convinced about taking someone that had been out for so long with a serious injury and was basically using his spell here to get properly match fit but I didn't think it would be as unproductive as it has been. It must be as disappointing for him though. Hope whatever's holding his progress up gets resolved soon for all parties sake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
