I think we have played the way SG set them out to play, although I'm not too comfortable with Helander being our main player with the ball out< again though he has done ok so far. Getting a couple of goals up now makes St Mirren having to change their tactics. So fa so good

Like a game of chess this as both teams try to cancel out the threats of the other.  We started slowly but, once again, when we did up the pace we carried a threat.  However, to be two goals up is probably a wee bit fortunate and it will be interesting to see how the second half pans out as St Mirren will surely have to open up and make a change or two.

Let us just keep it exactly as it is.

If we get next goal game over more or less.

Then that would allow SG to counter with a couple of changes

20/21 textbook first half

 

- relatively slow start

- start to get into game and score between 15-30mins

- add second before HT

 

20/21 textbook 2nd half

- 3rd goal between 45-60mins

- then start the subs 60+

 

A third of our league goals have been scored in a  1/6 part of the game (15-30)

 

Taking penalties off, Roofe is now topscorer in the league.

Very fortunate to be ahead at half time, never mind a 2 goal lead, our performance has been pretty poor and St Mirren had by far the better of the first half hour before our 2 goal lead allowed us a bit more composure and saw them not quite as at it.

 

We should have the game done from this position, but any slackness and Saints will be all over us again in the closing stages, so lets improve the performance, pass and move better, try to give our forwards more of the ball in good positions and get this done.

Slow start to second half. Need to improve 

[ian1964 10,724]

Hope we get a penalty that isn't a penalty ?
