St Mirren 'rode their luck but deserved a point'
We asked for your views on St Mirren's 1-0 defeat against what some of you said: William: This was a game played by two very good sides and both had the opportunity to make the final result more than one goal. I thought St Mirren at times rode their luck but they certainly deserved a point. Their defending was excellent and a work ethic to give the supporters a great deal of hope in the weeks to come. It was despairing to lose by a late deflected Basically backs to the wall for most of the match, and any attack into Celtic's last line was hampered by lack of control or any incisive penetrative runs. Yes, you can praise the defence with Richard King looking assured, Alex Gogic stoic and resilient, and Jayden Richardson looking better than in the League Cup. What worries from this performance was the failure of our forwards to hold the ball up, to put in the incisive pass or to take the chance when it was offered. We won't be judged on this game alone, but Motherwell, Rangers and Hibs follow close behind in the league and it will be interesting to see where we are after these four A disciplined performance, we rode our luck for sure. Thought we were going to hold on. The Celtic subs made all the difference, I wish James Forrest would retire!

Robinson glad to see St Mirren 'revive' League Cup campaign
Manager Stephen Robinson was relieved to see St Mirren "revive" their League Cup campaign with a 2-1 win at League Two side Forfar. The Buddies boss was far from happy that his Scottish Premiership side drew 0-0 with Arbroath on Saturday before losing the penalty shootout and bonus point. Advertisement At fourth-tier Forfar, defender Jayden Richardson drove in his first goal for the club after nine minutes and Mikael Mandron doubled that lead after 75 minutes, with Kieran Inglis reducing the deficit with a fine strike. Robinson told St Mirren's official X account: "It was a win. These games are a hiding to nothing. You come here, a real sticky pitch. Everyone expects you to win five and six. "We started extremely well and then we got a bit casual with things, without Forfar really threatening apart from free-kicks we gave away needlessly. "We need a few fresh faces to freshen things up as well. But as I've always said at this stage of the season, you're still searching for your best 11 people, you are still searching for form. Advertisement "You're expected to come in and roll people over and Rangers and Celtic don't go to Livingston and Kilmarnock (artificial pitches) and roll them over. "It's difficult to move the ball on these surfaces. It's difficult to get any kind of momentum. "And we can be better, of course, we can be better in certain aspects and in our decision-making, especially. "But we did what we needed to do to win, to sort of revive the campaign again, and we will go on and try and win the next two games and qualify."
