'Huffing and puffing our way out of the group stage'

BBC News4 days ago
St Mirren fans, we asked for your views on Sunday's Premier Sports Cup win over Ayr United. Here's what some of you had to say:David: Huffing and puffing our way out of the group stage. Sure we are bedding in a lot of new players and the group format is nonsense but we desperately need a new striker and creative midfielder.Douglas: Stephen Robinson can try to paint a positive picture out of the matches, however the second half performance was extremely poor. I worry for both the left and right hand side of the defence, and that is two weeks in a row that we have conceded from a straightforward corner. Play like that second half and Celtic will walk over us next Sunday. Best described as "curate's egg" performance with more bad than good unfortunately!John: Can't argue with Scott Brown, we should have been out of sight by half time but well done to Ayr for their second half performance.Peter: Any win in a cup tie is well deserved. Some fans should look back on previous so called easy ties and realise that getting into the next round is the main aim. Well done to the team and management.Mark: I was at the match and have been a St Mirren fan all my life, the first half we played well second half we eased off and credit to Ayr who deserved their goal. Here's to a good season ahead and we get top six again and are a bit more consistent.
