Inverness Caley Thistle 1-2 Saints

Last updated : 26 December 2010 By Stuart Gillespie

Judging by the BBC's online commentary, this was smash and grab stuff - but who cares? It's a vital win and lifts us up to ninth. We were way, way overdue a win against Caley Thistle and it's good to get it.

Paul Gallacher, David Barron and Craig Dargo all returned but it was a mistake from Gallacher after just eight minutes that let Lee Cox put Caley Thistle in front. However, we came back into things after that and pulled level just before the break, Thomson scoring a fine effort after good work from Dargo.

Caley Thistle pushed for a winner in the second half and hit the bar, but with five minutes left Thomson diverted a Paul McGowan shot over the line to give us a crucial victory.
