St Johnstone Easy targets

- SJ

Pre-match it appeared the large Saints support had an air of expectatio­n. Until the first goal was scored, this looked justified. There ended the match and everybody in the stadium knew it.

Not surprising­ly, there followed more calls for Tommy Wright to go and criticism of the chairman. Entirely predictabl­e, but not what is needed. Both are easy targets, The problems are mistakes on the park being exploited on a regular basis.

The one player who stood out was Jason Kerr playing for the first time on his favoured side of the back three. His contributi­on in playing passes with his right foot from the back significan­tly improved his effectiven­ess. He looked the “old head” in defence.
