Cagey Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 I think we will be seeded if Hearts win or draw tomorrow. Main thing is we are in draw tomorrow afternoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup. If Inverness win it'll be us and Livingston for the final spot. We both have 11 points, both have the same goal difference (+4), both scored five goals. It would move to away goals scored, we have four, Livingston have two. We'll be seeded regardless. garydavidson, PauloPerth, Cagey and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PauloPerth Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 (edited) Good performance by Saints today. Saints more possession in the first half, but not much in the way of chances. Forfar were very competitive and knocked it about and it was a good move for their opener. Good cross from Tanser for Watt's headed equaliser. Second half we bossed it, played it mostly in Forfar's half and should have scored at least a couple more but wasted chances, or were foiled by their keeper. The young lads at centre back were mostly very good and a solid performance after a couple of wee scares in the first half and for the goal. Our full backs are playing well. Foster is in great form, and Tanser put in the cross for the equaliser and was a constant threat down the left after HT. The wide players Drey Wright and Kennedy look the part, both full of running, love to beat a man and drive forward. Drey has been excellent in all 4 group matches, though he should have scored at least one today. Kennedy is very two footed, really comfortable on the ball, loves a stepover and scored a screamer. Murray had another fine game, driving forward a lot, winning the ball in midfield and supporting play as we attack. Also probably should have had a goal when he hit the post. Spoony played well in the holding midfield role; spraying passes, closing down well.. much more assured and confident display, needs to keep that level up consistently. Watt's a handful, was involved in a lot of the action, and Macmillan took his goal well. Qualifying from group as a seed with the team improving from match to match, the team beginning to gel, and the new signings showing up well would have been the hope going into the groups, and I'd say it's job done on all of that. I'd guess about 600 or so Saints fans through today.

PauloPerth Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 If ICT win or get 2 points then they are seeded as well, and Livingston drop down to the non-seeds and Partick would also make it as a non-seed and Hearts would be out. If Hearts beat ICT, then I think it's on goal difference between Thistle and ICT for the final unseeded place. 541ntees 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOODLUM65 Posted July 29, 2018 Report Share Posted July 29, 2018 After the initial shock of going behind Saints got the measure of their opponents (and the plastic pitch- not in acreage ) to stamp their authority on the game. Struck the woodwork 3 or 4 times and the keeper pulled off a few fine saves. Could have won 6-1 but was pleased with the overall show. Tanser caught out with a ball inside leading to the Forfar goal, which was put away well. Onwards and upwards. Went for Gordon as my M-o-M., but there was several contenders.

Cagey Posted July 29, 2018 Report Share Posted July 29, 2018 Draw for next round on 18th August after Hearts game today. Was it not the case in previous seasons that the draw was weeks after the group stages ?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhq Posted July 29, 2018 Report Share Posted July 29, 2018 Good performance yesterday. Can't add much to what's already been said to be honest. We look as if we will play more of a passing game this season, so the signing of (the right) centre mid will have a big bearing on how we do in the league. Lots of positives to take from the group games - the main ones being the performances of the new guys, Liam Gordon and Scott Tanser for me. Would like us to have been more clinical, but if that comes in the league even better. We could have a decent season if we avoid the injuries and the infuriating concession of early goals of last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanser is better attacking than defending which might be better suited to wingback. I would also like to see us trying Tanser on set pieces & corners as Craig & Spoony are poor & we never look like scoring from them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
