SaintJet 584 Report post Posted December 18, 2020 Tough road game for us agianst a fast improving St.Mirren team. Both teams will be bouyed by their cup progress so hoepfully this could be an entertaining game. I suspect though it will be a dour defensive affair with some meaty tackles. Joe the throw will be wanting to put one over on us. Lets get an away win under our belts and set us up for the New Year. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
south inch 865 Report post Posted December 18, 2020 A famous golfer, whose name escapes me but he was a match play specialist, used to say when waiting for the draw for the next round of a tournament "gimmie the guy who played well yesterday". Hope that sort of thinking plays in our favour tomorrow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cagey 2,376 Report post Posted December 18, 2020 (edited) Tough games ahead. Was hoping to have at least 4 points from this & Livi game before them. We have to get at least one point before going into next couple of games. At Mirren are a different team since last time we played them. Seem to have signed a few good young Irish guys. Something we never seemed to manage. Edited December 18, 2020 by Cagey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joe doesn't count as he was not brought over from Ireland & McCann is Scottish. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Johnny B 227 Report post Posted December 19, 2020 (edited) Playing safe again 1 up front. Why does he play two up front away to Hibs, we get a result then against lesser teams we play 1 up with a not to lose mentality. It is so frustrating Edited December 19, 2020 by Johnny B Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spoony has more or less been a forward all season and Conway will likely be in a similar wide forward role on the right Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Especially since you clearly don’t know the system we’ve been playing all season. Either way, you’re entitled to your opinion, so I’m out of the tactical discussions. 1 THE LARK SAINT reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
