Saints 0-2 St. Johnstone

Last updated : 03 September 2003 By Stuart Gillespie
For the first time since Caley hammered us 5-0 at the end of the title season, Barry Lavety started a game for Saints, and lasted almost until half time of extra time! I wasn't there so can't give much comment, but I understand St. Mirren had the majority of possession and chances for the first 90 minutes. St. Johnstone's first goal came from a set piece, as Darren Dods scored a header whilst being marked by Robert Dunn. Thats the tiny Robert Dunn. They were then awarded a dubious penalty, as Keigan Parker went down easily and it seemed to be outside the box (from what I'm told). The real Saints did manage a goal through Kevin Twaddle, but it was judged to be offside.

Ah well, we're concentrating on the league anyway ;-)
