She said that they had played better in all the defeats she could ever remember.

Yeah, I didn't hear many complements for the ground or the quality of the pitch in a phone call before the game. Even less after it.

A mate at the game text me... "Worst game and worst pi$$ up ever"

Not really. As I've said on our board, you don't win a trophy in March. We'll take the two points and move on. We're in better form at this stage than we were last season and we know that turned out pretty well. The Saints will flourish in the summer months.

Awful.



Good crowd on though 6500.

Either great defensive effort from Celtic or saints couldnt be bothered putting out a proper side and not finishing their chances

Cracking crowd. Would be good to see the Celtic/Saints split of that number.



Considering Salford once again played in front of one man and his dog.

Stevo wasnt surprised at the result though, had to laugh at Stevo's straight face when Ediie and Clarkey were ribbin him

im not suprised

im not suprised



what would suprise you



52-4 at fulltime





classic stevo.

Interestingly enough Saints have been involved in some low scoring games against so called lesser opposition.



11-0 Vs Huddersfield in 1999, 12-10 Vs Salford in 2006 and now 4-0 Vs Celtic.

iv played for st pats againt golburn under 18s and the game finished 0-0 couldnt een g for a drop goal the pitch was that bad

It' s way too early for us to try and draw any conclusions from this result. Saints have been poor on gluepot pitches in recent years, plus they've been notoriously poor starters in the last couple of seasons.



One difference this year, of course, is that a new coach is in the saddle - and non-too-comfortably with certain Saints players (from what I've been told), and their superstars are visibly ageing. Even so, it's going to be Easter before we're able to assess where the two clubs stand in relation to each other.



If we kick on from this weekend, that Maundy Thursday match may hinge more on what we do than what Saints do.
