Dundee United 3 St Mirren 4 - SPL 30/12/2012

A great victory at Tannadice keeps our recent good run going.

St Mirren 2 Motherwell 1 - SPL 21/12/2012

Saints grabbed a vital win against Motherwell to give all Buddies an early Christmas present.  Dundee and Ross County's results have given us a bit more breathing space.

Mixed Feelings

Well I have had a couple of days to reflect on Saturday's game and I am still undecided on how I feel.  Obviously failing to beat 9 man St Johnstone at face value is not a great result.  However, we did get a point and when you add Ross County and Dundee's defeat into the equation then it was not the worst weekend. You can argue we were unlucky, hitting the woodwork twice, but the there is till an underlying feeling, similar to the Ross County game, that it was an opportunity lost.  Still we are now 3 league games undefeated, although we head to Parkhead next.

St Mirren 2 Rangers 1 - SPL 24/12/2011

Great early Christmas present as Saints came from behind on Christmas Eve to beat Rangers. A great first half performance and slightly nervous second half culminated in a deserved 2-1 victory.

St Mirren 1 QOS 0 - 1st Division 11/3/2006

Charlie Adam scores a last minute winner against Queen of the South in our promotion winning season.  We dominated the game but thought it was going to be one of those days until wee Charlie popped up. 

St Mirren 2 Aberdeen 1 - SPL 30/10/2010

Very brief highlights of a good win over Aberdeen from October 2010.  We all thought again that we had blown it until Jure Travner won the game with almost the last kick of match.

St Mirren 1 Stirling 0 - 1st Division 16/01/93

David Elliott scores a spectacular goal in a hard fought win over Stirling from 1993.  He never really lived up to expectations but on his day he was capable of things like this.

Better

Well 0-0 with Ross County away is ok when you consider recent results.  A first clean sheet in nine is encouraging.

St Mirren 3 Dundee 1 - SPL 24/11/12

At last a victory and an important one that puts us 4 points clear of Dundee.  Another vital game next week though.

Aberdeen vs St Mirren 2-4 Penalty Shoot Out - League Cup Quarter Final 2012

In the absence of any television cameras, here is the penalty shoot out victory over Aberdeen shot by a Dons fan.  Somehow that makes it better.  Warning it does contain industrial language!

Brechin 0 St Mirren 3 - 1st Division 21/03/06

A battling win over Brechin at Glebe Park courtesy of a John Sutton hat trick.

St. Mirren V Morton Penalty Shoot Out - Bells Cup Semi Final 2005

The penalty shoot out against Morton at Love Street which took us in to the 2005 Bells Cup Final.

St.Mirren 2 Hamilton 0 - Premier League 1/10/88

A hard fought 2-0 win over Hamilton from 1988.  Nice to see the old bib shirts get an outing!

Clydebank 1 St Mirren 2 - 1st Division 10/02/96

Game at Kilbowie from 1996 where Saints end up with 9 men but still win!

League Table

I suppose I better update the league table page.  I have been avoiding it!

St Mirren 2 Hamilton 1 - Bells Cup Final 2005

Saints win the Bells Cup Final in their promotion winning season.  Probably the only time we have done a league and cup double!  Apologies again for the video quality.

Rangers 0 St Mirren 1 - Premier League 12/08/89

This was a great game.  I passed up the chance to go and see the Stone Roses at Blackpool Winter Gardens to go to Ibrox.  The Championship flag was unveiled, Mo Johnston made his debut for Rangers, Gunni made his debut for Saints, Kenny McDowall injured Chris Woods to score, Ian Ferguson had to go in goal and Paul Lambert hit the bar in the second half.  Brilliant!  This clip only shows the goal but that is enough.

Depressing

This is getting to be a recurring theme.  Yet another defeat and another point picked up by Dundee.  Something needs to change soon!

Stranraer 1 St Mirren 5 - 1991 Scottish Cup

An early 1990s cup tie against Stranraer where Victor scored the fifth!

Worrying times

Another bad result coupled with Dundee's win leaves us only 5 points off the bottom.  There are signs of discontent amongst section of supporters about the manager, but it is too early to press the panic button.  Next week against Aberdeen is a big game though!
