Baffled by why people were doing that. Can't leave this place unwatched for a second. 😁

Lack of interest in this game, I'd imagine. Nobody could be arsed.

There's a few hints we might win this, but then reality hits and you realise we'll be losing 3-0 by half time.

As always, the closer we get to a game, I'm convinced we're going to win this.

Unlike others, I enjoy games against this mob and their cousins.

Now, I'm always the most positive person in the room, but today, I really feel that this is the start of our comeback.

It would send such a message out that we're not done yet.

Then take Motherwell out in the cup and league (totally possible), and they'll all be s****ing it.

Plus, the BBC will be furious. How glorious would that be? Did you see their headline about beleaguered Saints?

So to quote the Black Eyed Peas:

I Gotta Feeling...

C.O.Y.S.

We've started strong in a lot of games this season and I don't think that will change today. Our confidence diminishes however once we concede from a stupid goalkeeping error so it will be interesting to see if this Fisher guy will command his box better than Rae. Obviously decisions will not go in our favour as is always the case with the big two so we cannot rely on a penalty to keep us in the game as has been the case a few times this season. If it gets to 0-0 by half time I will be more confident that we can get something out of this game because I can see the Rangers fans getting incredibly more antsy and getting on the backs of the players as time passes. I would start Essel as a CDM along with Sprangler to protect the back four as much as possible and then try nick at the end with an fresh-legged Sidibeh or Kimpioka; the whole playing three attackers at the start is just not working sadly and we leave ourselves with no options from the bench after players get tired.

The bottom line is that I just want to see positivity and fight - no lackadaisical attitudes or players feeling sorry for themselves.

Giving me the fear.. perfect storm! Forces of darkness struggling not averaging the obligatory penalty a game! Against us struggling not averaging a penalty a game! On paper perfectly matched!! Under normal circumstances you hope Saints play it tight for the first 20 mins and snatch a draw at best. Ibrox! What chances do we realistically have of  getting a decision when we struggle to get one at home! Hoping it’s 1. Single figures 2. No injuries 3. No sendings off … watching Simo age before our eyes! Poor guy

Kimpioka on the left unable to cover left back who I think will be Wright with Essel at right back.

Did Benji warm up on his deck chair?
