ST JOHNSTONE LATEST IT’LL BE ONE GAME AT A TIME

Shaughness­y insists Saints will keep their calm ahead of difficult batch of fixtures

- Robbie Chalmers

St Johnstone captain Joe Shaughness­y says the team are focusing only on the next game with a run of tough fixtures coming up before the internatio­nal break.

The Perth side have only lost one competitiv­e game out of ten this season, including 1-1 draws against Aberdeen and Hibernian.

But the Fair City side now face Rangers on Sunday as well as Hearts and Celtic (twice) in the space of two weeks — and Shaughness­y thinks the squad have the right mentality to take on the challenge, using a game by game approach.
