We asked for your views after Stephen Robinson’s St Mirren put eight past lower-league Annan in the Premier Sports Cup.
Here’s what some of you said:
Eddie: Great result! We are starting look more like the team the manager knows.
Douglas: Fraser Taylor, why not start off by saying that was a great sitting midfield performance? Not on the scoresheet, but controlled, prodded and sprayed great passes throughout the afternoon. We puffed a little after taking a three-goal lead after nine minutes, but eventually we managed to find the net later in the game to reflect our dominance. Richard King also put in a polished first performance and the management team must be happy with his control. There will be greater examinations as the season progresses, but good to see the goals go in and raise the confidence.
Wallace: Enjoyed ever minute of it.
Gabe: A reassuring performance after the two previous lacklustre games. It’s slightly disconcerting that we conceded two goals, but overall this result is a cause for optimism.
John: For a great deal of that game it was a turgid affair. It was a lightning start and we looked on easy street. For the last 20-odd minutes of the first half Annan outplayed us. They were the better side at that point – 8-2 definitely flattered us and I think tiredness in the Annan team played its part at the end. After they scored to make it 3-2 they had a spring in their step, but it petered out. I have now seen both keepers in action and I am not overly confident in either. Still, we won comfortably in the end and have a chance of progressing.
