Disappointing but not disgraced and we’ve shown we can live with Premiership clubs. We can now focus on the league and concentrate on beating Dundee on Tuesday. I hate to say it but St Mirren probably did deserve to win it given they hit the woodwork three times. A really good game though and we fully played our part in it.

Lyall on for Welsh.

Ouch. Marcus Fraser of all people too! Tragic.

Sutherland on for Toddy.

Saved by the post now!

Looks like we are focussed on not conceding and hoping to get something on the break.

That must have been a right offside there. But what was Deas doing up there in open play!

We cut them open there. Deas could have shot but tried to play Toddy in and the chance went. Then Allan so close when played in. We seem to have grown back into this in the last few minutes.

Saved by the woodwork again there. Very open game. St Mirren a bit on top just now though.

Decent save by Ridgers there.

This is quite a game. Really enjoying it. Hopefully we can win it.

1-1. Good finish but our player marking McGrath in build up slipped at the wrong time. Not the first time a player has slipped tonight.

Toddy!!!!! Unmarked in box at corner and blasted in!

Decent 45 after slow start. Very even and we don’t look like a team in a league below. We could easily have scored through Toddy and Allan but equally the woodwork saved us. St Mirren playing dangerous long balls to pacy players so we need to keep our wits about us. This game could go either way but we have matched them so far.

Lucky there. St Mirren player should have scored. Lucky it deflected onto the bar and into hands of Ridgers.

Allan kept out by another good save.

Toddy so close there on turn after great Mackay run. Needed a good save to keep him out.

Pretty even opening 20 minutes and we have held our own and had a few attempts. Mackay has had a couple of shots on target and Ridgers has had one good save. St Mirren are a pacy team.

It’s on now. An interview taking place.

Forgot Welsh had been out recently. Strong line up so fingers crossed!

Good to see Doran back in the squad. Duffy not on the bench: injured? Interesting it is an unchanged starting 11 again. Hopefully we keep our good run going.

Something I didn’t expect to type.... Nat Wedderburn scored for Dumbarton against Clyde tonight.

Great news and if someone does come in for him now, we should get a decent fee given the length of the contract. Having him and Allardice on board is a great bit of business.

Can I add my sincere gratitude to all involved. This Forum is excellent and having all the stats up to date is fascinating, particularly as I was away from the area for many of the initial years after ICT came into being. I’ve recently finished working my way through Milestones and Memories which filled many gaps by covering matches I was unable to witness, and was a great reminder of many I was able to attend, so it is great the Forum is now at the level it is today thanks to the hard work. Thanks again to those involved.
