We deserved to win but sluggish at times. Ashcroft always appears to be looking up field when he's got an easy pass to McPherson. Our small squad size is going to start to show with Fitz and Ben going off injured.

But I don't understand why his form is not where it was a couple of years ago. He's 28 - age, while not on his side necessarily, is not against him. He should be able to contribute more than he is currently. Surely too early to write him off as lower league journeyman?

Stanway has come on leaps and bounds this season with some suggestion that Rae has been a positive influence during training. I hope we see similar with Turner at some point - we know there's a decent player there, but he's been struggling for consistent form for a while now.

There's been very few transfers at any team yet. Maybe it takes a bit of time?

Imrie is the master of the shitfest. We're not the first team to fall for it and we won't be the last.

Yes St Johnstone looked strong and must be clear favourites for the league. Good to see another training ground move come off for the first goal. And the game plan worked, so more credit to the management team.

MacKay is under contract, so the club gains nothing by releasing him. It also would be very bad for the club's reputation with other prospective players. Main thing is it is so unfortunate for the player, who himself must be wondering if that's his career over. For his sake, I really hope this is just a minor setback.

Love how the goals are being shared out. Says so much about our progress from last season.

Yeah - the defence looked really settled.

First visit to Firhill this season for me with only other game I've managed being at Saints here in Perth. So hopefully I'll be seeing an improvement! I think it'll be a tough game - County bound to improve considerably from our early season games with them.

Silly me... Possibly didn't scroll down far enough.

Not really inclined to bash comms etc, but am I missing the bit where he says who he is? Could well be my tiredness and weariness after the Scotland game. But if I'm right and there's no name in this article, then I'd suggest that's a bit of a miss or a tad presumptuous. https://ptfc.co.uk/ptfc-news/reflections-from-a-fan-representative-director/ Or maybe it doesn't really matter who he is?

It has indeed been a great run of results - rare in this dog eat dog league, so well done to the management and players. But it looks like lack of squad depth is going to be our undoing. Maybe muddle through the 2nd quarter, then patch things up in the January window?

My only concern is how light our bench looked. Just hope injuries don't interfere too much with this decent run we're on.

Well done to all the subs - Turner, Lawless and Samuel added the energy and urgency that was missing. And Smyth was finding passes that were making things happen. Looking forward to seeing more of him.
