looks quite straightorward on the map... But then it always does!!

looks like a direct road - the B7071 straight thru Uddingston and Bothwell takes leads you onto Bothwell Road in Hamilton....

think I'll give it a go

 

see you at half 3 !!!!!!

Hope you made it Paulo. Turns out junction five wasn't too bad this afternoon apparently. Think everybody just avoids that area completely just now.

I did, in plenty time as well! 

A joy to watch in that second half after constantly lumping high balls upto Cummins to no avail for the first 40 minutes.

moving MOH up with Zippy was a master stroke as they linked up brilliantly.

mannus kept us in it first half. Thought the back 4 was good, with Easton outstanding, and Muzz was a rock in CM. Fisher poor first half apart from involvement in the goal, but much improved in the second.

MOH and Zippy excellent and great to see Spoony get a goal - he took it very calmly; hope he kicks on from that.

Hope you enjoyed it. A real pleasure watching this Saints team right now :)

How was Wotherspoon? It seems that he scored a decent goal, did he look as if he has regained a bit of confidence?  Hopefully it will give him a bit of a boost. Couldn't get to the game but will be there next week for the Killie game. Good to see so many players chipping in with the goals this season. 3 point weekend, 4th spot in the table and a nice wee earner on Bet 365 #gooddayssaints

He played as one of the 3 central players in a 5 man midfield initially, and like most of our midfield the game passed him by in the first half, and when he did get on the ball would often take too long/ too many touches and the accies midfield - who closed us down quickly - would dispossess us. 

He was switched to right midfield just before half time, and second half played far better.  Our wide players got right out at the touchlines when we were on it and created far more space.  He was linking up well and had a couple of moments of good skill; including the goal which he took very coolly.

After a third of the season we're 4th on 20 points:

pld 13  for 27  against 21.  (+6) Pts 20

At the same stage last season we were 9th after a 1-1 draw at Dens (and were out of the league cup):

pld 13  for 10 Against 16.  (-6)  Pts 14

although we were about to embark on our run of 5 successive wins.

 

Would be nice to see a good turnout next Saturday whilst the team is as entertaining as it is just now.

Was solid, and was doing the simple things very well, didnt seem obsessed with fancy flicks or tricks and instead just done what was needed. Was so calm for the goal aswell.

When he plays like that he's a valuable part of the line up. 

Starting to think he benefits from not playing at McDiarmid though, its as if he feels the pressure of the home crowd on him and thinks he has to do something spectacular.

We've got Killie at home, Dundee Utd away and then Dundee at home coming up too. No reason not to aim for 9 points.

Far too ambitious; I'll take 7 out of that line up and go to the bank.

More important when we are on a nice roll is trying to encourage more fringe fans to get to the game. The hard core supporters love the Dundee games but how about the brass think getting a big gate for the Friday night game against the Dees. £5 for kids or kids go free when accompanied with a full paying adult.
