St.Johnstone v Hibernian - Saturday 6th March

[Linky 132]

Well played, another good defensive performance. McCart or Kerr should be MoM, but the whole back line played well. Wotherspoon not his usual self, Melamed couldn't quite get into the game. All we needed was the win though.

McCart for me, was everywhere with key defensive plays

Would love the top 6'but more importantly it creates a bigger gap at the bottom.

I am exhausted & I haven't played 3 games in 6 days. Liam C a legend.

[Rob 140]

3 points against 3rd in the league, happy with that. A difficult game and gave us at least a chance to get that top 6 place.

Stats say we had 2 shots at goal. I couldn't think of the other one then remembered Tanser chance late on.

Dallas & Beaton  probably would have sent Liam off for that last man tackle.

Melamed starts, we win!

[Melbourne Saint 167]

Bloody strange season. That game definitely falls into the category of "god's were shining on us". Can't remember a Saints corner. Hibs were into double figures... They can't say they were "robbed" as such, but they were massively on top in just about every stat. Apart from the one that counts most. 3 points. Saints looked justifiably "limp". Interesting how the teams around us fare with games in hand. McCart kind of reminds me of Gary Gillespie (minus the t*** ego). Seems to cruise through games & keeps his discipline & concentration when required. Expect Killie must start getting results.. can someone do the remaining fixtures for all teams in the mix for 6th?

I’ve double check it my original post and definitely doesn’t say “every time Melamed starts we win”. It’s says, “Melamed starts, we win!”

Thought MOH had a great second half, really payed back CD for his second chances after some stupid red cards earlier in the season.

Whole team played their hearts out after the week they have had.

Hibs had a few chances and I was glad to hear the final whistle but looking back we defended well.

Unfortunately the quietest Guy has been ,never got into the game for some reason & didn't or didn't think he had the pace to best the defender & then tried the wrong pass.

For a guy that hasn't played much this season Mikey was great in defence second half.

First half Booth & Spoony were linking well as were Mikey & Kerr.

Second half I assume Callum asked them to hold what they had as they were never over half way in second.

[Tricky6 15]

Cant believe we’re the 5th highest goal scoring team in the league, yet we couldn’t buy a goal in so many of the games!

This has to rank as the worst Premier League for a long long time....

Think you have to include Livi in the mix now, they are only 5 goals ahead of us at present and we are one goal ahead of St Mirren. Hamilton win against Livi next Saturday then a Saints win and a St Mirren draw combined with a Hibs thumping of livi in a fortnight could see Saints go to 5th place and Livi in 7th.

Aye. If you are not averse to spending umpteen millions that you haven't got (and nobody knows, nor cares, where it comes from) you could actually win this league.

Aye maybe so but it didnae buy them or the other ugly sister the League Cup.

[Salguodinmethven. 27]

After being worried about being in play of positions not so very long ago I'm now delighted were challenging for top six, although not to worried if we get there or not as we surely safe now and got a cup. Rode our luck a bit today especially second half but team coped well, think it was mccart who saved the day at the end and few times in-between, he's progressing well in my opinion but does like a dodgy clearance now n again. Good to see Moh working hard today and Zander getting a couple of confident saves to, think he only booted it out the park once today LAUGH OUT LOUD. Anyway 3 PTS that I'd thought in a game we might have only got 1 in after a successful busy week braw.

Saints didn’t have a corner and hibs were only in single figures.

Cmon Saints get that second.
