1-0 win with a johnny koutroumbis ripper. You heard it here first.

Wtf does he say to them at half Time? I thought we were dominant the first half. Getting forward, keeping possession albeit not making many chances. 1-0 up and he clearly sets us up to get as many men as possible behind the ball and hold on…. St Johnstone are fkn atrocious

Bye Stuart

That was coming. When you stick 10men behind the ball for 45 mins and have a dodgy defence we are just asking for it.

Really poor second half…. Lucky not to have conceded there.

Looks like we are sticking to our standard 10 men behind the ball anti football and to hold out for a 1-0 win this half. It’ll be a long 30mins

He’s not had a touch yet but has been booked… quite the start

Much better stuff from us, definitely a bit more between the teeth this week. wee Paton and Nicholson playing well and looking to get the ball all the time.

Well Mr Kettlewell, you’ve put a target on your back from your condescending remarks midweek. A very dangerous decision to antagonise fans. A win and only a win will do for me to help ease some tensions between him and the fans. cmon the ‘Well

Also it depends who wants to pay the most. Celtic offered more than Norwich or any other club. the sale ultimately benefited Motherwell more than it did Turnbull.

I do know what you sort of mean with Turnbull but let’s be fair, he went to them and won 2 titles, 2 Scottish cups and 2 league cups and also played in an environment which demanded winning on a weekly basis, playing in front of 60000 people and regular champions league matches. He wouldn’t have got that at Norwich. hes been very unlucky with injuries(as seems to be the case at the moment as well) if it wasn’t for injuries im sure he’d have been in a better place just now and still be around the Scotland squad.

In today’s game they probably wouldn’t play him as he didn’t run 10k during a game. Halliday gets away with it as he jogs 10k around the centre circle in 90mins. cooper would run about 1km during a match but create about 40 goal scoring chances. Magnificent player.

I wish we could go back and have stats like this for when Tommy McLean was our manager. A list of signed players made by him would have made your eyes bleed and send this forum into a frenzy. i suppose for every hundred duffers he got a Cooper right enough.

St Johnstone got accies at home. gutting

“Grandmaster” pointer….. get it right. I’m joking I’m joking before any of our funny handshake fans get all testy. This aside, SK just got interviewed and said we were slow and ponderous ?? So why take off Nicholson who was busy and up for it and keep Halliday on? Baffling!! It’s like “I’ve gave him the captaincy today so I can’t take him off”

I’ve backed SK to the hilt, even at times when it’s been clear he’s been at fault and also due to the names brought up to replace him……. But I now feel we can’t keep watching this anti-football. I don’t trust him to bring in new players as he’ll still have his favourites being automatic starters. I think time is up.

Injuries aside, there should have been enough for us to get through that today. Utterly pathetic display. Just another one of many turgid performances over the past couple of months.

I think we need another 6 points to escape automatic relegation. The play off spot could be where we end up especially if this type of performance continues

Have we had a shot at goal today? I certainly can’t recall their keeper saving anything?

Unbelievable decision. He was doing ok and was trying to create something. Sk must feel we need to continue with an immobile midfielder walking around the centre circle trying to win fouls and waste free kicks.

Nicholson still the only one pushing forward and showing some energy. I can’t watch any more Halliday free kicks- get slattery on FfS

Can’t argue with Andrews coming off but Halliday was worse in the first half. Casey off too, can’t argue too much with that either.

Extremely fortunate to be only 1-0 down. We’re making this st Johnstone team look like Man City. The midfield are so bad, especially in the centre, we are getting run through every single time. I like Andrews but he’s just shell shocked and needs more time to get used to the pace of the game up here and Halliday is even worse than normal. changes required now please kettlewell

He’s great at pointing tho.

Halliday can do one at half time, strutting about trying to win fouls and failing. Get slattery on, even half fit at least he can move.
