Happened on the 16th for anyone thinking of betting on St Johnstone.

St Johnstone striker Steven Milne will be out of action for six weeks after surgery on a knee injury.

Milne's operation will see him sidelined until March and boss Owen Coyle said he was disappointed to lose such an important player.

"Obviously it's a blow but I suppose the consolation is that he could have been ruled out for the remainder of the campaign," he said on the club website.

"However, it's a significant loss in a squad that is already quite stretched."
