It’s the long trip to the South West for Saints tomorrow when they take on Stranraer at Stair Park.
In the wake of Tuesday’s Bell’s Cup semi-final defeat to Hamilton, Manager Owen Coyle has talked of an even greater determination to bring league success to Perth to make up for the disappointment of losing out on the chance of a cup final and has urged his players to show the drive, attitude and determination required.
Simon Mensing is available again after his one match suspension but as he comes back, Scott Paterson misses out following his sending off at Broadwood last Saturday. Goran Stanic and Darren Sheridan have both now shrugged off the infections they have been carrying and captain Kevin James (pictured) is available if required although a scan is going to be required to get to the bottom of his troublesome achilles injury.
Stranraer have shown that they will be nobody’s whipping boys this season and in former St Johnstone player Michael Moore they have a striker capable of making a nuisance of himself and grabbing a goal.

I like them still fellas. Mensing, Sheridan and big james at the back. Think i was reading about them being a better team with big James in defence. Think they'll be up for it as Coyle mentions.
