    Agree with this. But perhaps most damaging is the overall mindset Davidson instilled in the team, which I think we still haven't managed to pull ourselves out of. That attitude of fear, making all the players scared to try anything creative or a bit different that might have shown some spark or got the fans on their feet. Always scared to make a substitution or a tactical change in case it made things worse instead of better. Always scared to go for it at 1-0 down in case we went 2-0 down. Telling everyone that winning a relegation play-off would be better than winning the Double. Yes we were often defensive under Tommy Wright too, but we were also brave and aggressive and adaptable to situations.
    I still think of the way Eetu Vertainen - at a time when he was young, living in a new country and eager to impress - was publicly shamed for trying one little flick on the halfway line against Rangers, and think that was the moment we really knew beyond any doubt what Davidson was all about. Sign players who might be good and drill every glimmer of flair out of them, and refuse to give them a game until they're fully brainwashed into playing with the same stiff, defensive mindset as everyone else.
    So much of all of where we are now is Callum Davidson's fault, and if we go down much of the blame for it will be on his shoulders.

    All true, but equally I think it's important for the club to actually look at why this happened so it doesn't happen again, rather than just shrug the shoulders and have a laugh about it. It's not just luck that allowed us to benefit in a similar way in the past. It happened because we'd created an environment here where players could thrive. If the opposite is now happening (and it definitely is, and not just with Bair), then that's probably a big part of the reason why we're now a team that struggles every year.

    I would give Parker, McCrystal, Mylchreest and Steven contracts. They may not be regulars but decent squad players and not a huge drag on the budget.
    Would also offer Gallagher an extention.

    I know there is a lot of negativity around but there is no one on here after 10 games that wouldn’t have taken pre the split to be a sh1tload of points ahead of 12th and 4 above 11th. Great result today.

    The result was always going to be the most important thing today, and we got it.
    Huge win!
    Especially at an away venue against a team who were supposedly on the rise, and with nobody expecting us to get anything.
    Sidibeh is some boy. I think he makes the whole team better because now they know that they have a teammate on the park who has pace, is a threat and can score.
    Mitov, back to his excellent self.
    In fact, the whole side did their jobs well and that's all you can ask at a time like this.
    It's been a while since I cheered a goal like I did our second.
    Anyway, we won. So for now, that'll do.
    It's nice to feel good on a Saturday night again.

    There are better players in the bench than in the starting line-up.  May must have shit in Levein’s cornflakes.

    I’ve been pretty vocal about players currently at Saints who I simply cannot stomach but I just don’t totally get the hate for MacPherson. I understand some of it because he hasn’t lived up to the billing but it’s not his fault the way he was brought in under the Ali McCann saga.
    He IS talented. And I do believe he is of, albeit lower half, SPL quality on his day. If(BIG if) we kept him fit for a season and I half I think we would really see a solid centre midfielder at this level.
    We need to clear the decks of guys like Considine, McGowan, Carey, Gallagher and Crawford.
    A midfield of Sven Sprangler, Matt Smith and Cammy MacPherson wouldn’t be the worst midfield in the league next year if Levein can sign a couple of decent defenders then we have the makings of a team that can put the past couple of seasons behind them.
    Keltjens, Sidibeh, Robinson and Kimpioka will be up to another level next season with a preseason under their belt.
