Ked Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 St Mirren at home have beaten hib,celtic and Aberdeen by 2 or more. Drew with Rangers(St Mirren should have won. We were poor first half but that was down to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bauld Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 They're unbeaten in 10 at home. We weren't at it today and their goal was a lucky deflection which left us chasing things from early on. It's a shame we couldn't finish the job after getting back into it. But will take the point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chevy Chase Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 Thought we were very poor. Game there to be won. We were very sloppy at times and without us gifting them opportunities, they created next to nothing of their own doing. I’d have taken a point at 3pm but feel frustrated with us after watching that.

hearts00 Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 Should have won it with any quality in the final third. I was frustrated by the sloppiness and decision making in the final third but not with the overall effort of the team. I forecast a draw before kick off and would have been happy with that. We as a team however do not shoot enough, let alone get shots on target. 77% possession but no where near enough efforts at goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1971fozzy Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 It’s a very good point. Arguably the hardest place to go outside the arsecheeks , as they are unbeaten at home in 10 or something, and half a team missing as well. Crucially they didn’t gain on us and we have a superb opportunity next 2 home games on Friday night v them and the following Wednesday v Aberdeen to put some daylight between us.

Craig Herbertson Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 Windy and a crap surface neither of which helps our style of play and, I hate to say it, St Mirren pressed very well.

RustyRightPeg Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 (edited) It is a good point. Like it or not they are an efficient unit, especially at home. They nullified us in the first half, yes they could’ve been out of sight, but readjusting at half time and walking away with a point and not 0 is what good teams do. We’ll do them on Friday under the lights. Edited January 7, 2023 by RustyRightPeg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LogicalEric Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 Absolutely controlled the 2nd half. Only time St Mirren threatened was when we over complicated it in the final third and gave them a counter attack. Actually feel a bit disappointed with a point but after that 1st half I'll take it. We definitely need a different option in attack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorgie_Rules Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 Very poor first half, not helped by them being compact after the lucky deflection early on Much more like ourselves 2nd half and could have won it in the end. An off day for Shankland but can’t complain after how good hes been for us. Need to beat them next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott herbertson Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 We missed Halliday and Kingsley and Halkett - with them in the side I doubt St Mirren would have had as many chances and we would have been playing higher up the pitch first half. When the defence has it easier the midfield have more time on the ball. They were able to press us back first half but we worked it out. A point is reasonable over there atm. Not going to be simple on Friday either as they are good on the break but if we get the first goal should be 3pts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Leitch Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 We were shocking first half. Robbie has to act a lot quicker and change things if it's not going well.

As far as I am aware, they’ll be without Erahon, the lad who scored today (went off injured) and the lad who got sent off. No idea if that Baccus was injured too. Regardless, I fancy us against anyone at home.

McNelly15 Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 The sign of any decent football team is when picking up points away from home especially when the squad is crippled with injuries. Every team below ups there game against us for good reason too. We are the 3rd best team in Scotland by a long way.. Without all these injuries we wouldn't be looking behind us in the table at teams being as close as they are just now. Also we've had Europe this season to contend with and STILL are 3rd.
