Don’s the man in the middle as Buddies take on the Bairns

- St Mirren

Referee Don Robertson will take charge tomorrow when St Mirren take on Falkirk as the second quarter of the season gets under way.

The clash will be the second time the two clubs have met this season, with the Buddies looking to follow up their 3-1 win over the Bairns from the opening game of the season.

Goa l s f rom St e l i o s Demetriou, Cammy Smith and Gavin Reilly sealed the points following Nathan Austin’s second- minute opener for the visitors.

Paul Hartley has only recently taken the Falkirk hotseat after Peter Houston paid the price for a poor start to the campaign.

Hartley will be in search of his first three points as gaffer after only being able to muster a 0- 0 draw with Inverness Caledonian Thistle at the weekend.

Saints are on the hunt for their first win at Falkirk since their relegation twoand- a- half years ago, with the last win coming in 2009.

Elsewhere, this weekend, Craig Charleston will be heading to Glebe Park as basement side Brechin City take on Gary Naysmith’s Queen of the South.

Willie Collum will be back in charge at Tannadice as Ray McKinnon’s side look to bounce back from a disappoint­ing 2- 0 defeat to Livingston last weekend when they welcome Inverness.

Andrew Dallas drops down to the Championsh­ip for the clash between Dunfermlin­e and Livingston at East End Park, while Barry Cook returns to league action at Cappielow for the game between Greenock Morton and relegation battlers, Dumbarton.
