Queen of the South 0-0 Saints

First to the Saints game. It finished 0-0, 1-1 on red cards. Gary Wood was sent off for QOS, before John Sutton joined him for an early shower five minutes later. It's the first time that a Saints player has been sent off since Simon Lappin against Airdrie in September. Why either player was sent off I don't know at this time as I wasn't there. Both teams apparently had chances to score but couldn't take them.

When the full time whistle went at Palmerston, it looked as if Saints lead was going to be cut to four points as second placed Hamilton were beating Stranraer. However, an amazing game saw Stranraer end up 5-4 winners, and Saints suddenly found their lead extended to seven points!

Thanks to Stranraer, and also well done to Airdrie who were 2-0 down to Dundee and won 3-2, meaning they've beaten them three times this season!
