Stephen McGinn looking forward to being back at home

St Mirren skipper Stephen McGinn says the Buddies are looking forward to being back at the Simple Digital Arena as they aim to bounce back from Saturday's disappointing 5-2 loss away to Hearts.

While Saints aren't in action this weekend due to the international break, they'll face two home games in the space of four days when Ross County and Hibernian visit Paisley in a little over a week's time.

And coming off the back of three away losses in a row, Stephen believes it will be a welcome relief being back at home where the Buddies have only lost one game and one goal all season.

It’ll be nice to be back home," Stephen told stmirren.com.

"Our away record is not good and it’s something we really need to address, but we like playing at home. We are good at home and with back-to-back home games coming up we need to put points together and good performances.

"Everyone in that dressing room is desperate to get Saturday out of our system.

"St Mirren Park always has to be a fortress and I feel it is always a hard place for teams to go to. It’s something we are proud of and something we want to continue. We don’t want Ross County to come down next week and enjoy coming to Paisley.

"We’ll approach it as we do every game and try to win the game. But there’s probably an added significance with the three losses we’ve just had away from home.

"It’s not nice when you look at the table and it’s not nice when people ask how you are doing and you have to tell them we are bottom of the league, but I don’t feel like we are the worst team in the league.

"We’ve got a game in hand, we’ve got games coming up thick and fast over the Christmas period and we want to try to put results together. If we can we’ll quickly find ourselves where we feel we should be."

The Buddies have been praised for a defensive record that, prior to Saturday's match against Hearts, was only bettered by first and second placed Celtic and Rangers. 

Saints had only conceded 11 goals in their opening nine league matches, but were left shocked as they conceded five at Tynecastle on Saturday.

Stephen admits it was disappointing and the players have to prove it was a one-off. 

We want to make sure that was just a blip and it won't ever happen again," he said.

"It was strange because at half-time we are well in the game and at times we were pretty comfortable at a difficult venue but we were losing 3-2. We have not lost goals like that all season so it was a bit of a shell-shocked dressing room at half-time. 

"We have taken a lot of credit as a team for our defensive record and we are gutted to have lost so many goals, especially the manner of the goals. There were some really poor goals we lost, uncharacteristic goals.

"We lost the third and fourth goals at terrible times and ultimately it cost us the game.

"The one right before half-time we were really disappointed with and then 30 seconds into the second-half you are 4-2 down and the reaction after that wasn't great. It turned out to be a really disappointing day.

"We have to make sure it doesn’t happen again and react better. Goals are so hard to come by in this league that we can’t afford to give them away at the other end."

The captain admitted he can understand fans frustrations as the Buddies find themselves at the bottom of the league.

But he emphasised their importance and knows Saints can count on their backing.

The fans will stick with us," he said.

"If ever a group of fans were going to turn on a team it was last year and they didn’t. They stuck with us right to the end and we both got our rewards together.

"They were brilliant again on Saturday and they have been brilliant in my whole time at the club.

"I’ve no doubt that they will stick with us and when Ross County come to our place a week on Saturday the place will be rocking and they’ll get behind us like every other Saturday."

Saturday's match away to Hearts saw Stephen made his 198th appearance in the black and white of St Mirren.

The skipper says he's been aware of being close to the 200 mark and given his affinity for the club he's full of pride as he approaches the milestone.

It’s something I’m really proud of," he confessed. 

"When I was a young player in the youth team here I was just dying to get one game and then you are dying to get two games so to get to 200 at this club means a lot to me and it will be great to finally hit that mark.

"The last two and a half years have been amazing," he continued.

"There have been low times but I have loved every minute since I have come back. People say don’t go back but I couldn’t disagree more. It’s a place I know well and it means a lot to me.  Every win feels twice as good because it’s here and all the memories I am now wracking up here.

"On a personal level reaching 200 games for this club is something I’m really proud of."

Match Report: Hearts 5-2 St Mirren

It was a day to forget in the capital as Saints fell to a 5-2 defeat against Hearts at Tynecastle in the Ladbrokes Premiership.

The Buddies twice came from behind in the first-half to level but still went into the break 3-2 down. And a disappointing day was compounded by second half goals from Jamie Walker and Jake Mulraney gave the Edinburgh side an emphatic win. 

Jim Goodwin made two changes to the side that lost 2-0 at Celtic Park the previous midweek. Tony Andreu and Danny Mullen came in for Ryan Flynn and Ilkay Durmus who dropped to the bench.

Saints came into the match bottom of the table but level on points with Hearts and could have moved up to eighth place with a win depending on results elsewhere.

But it was the hosts who seized the initiative, taking the lead with just six minutes on the clock. The Jambos won a corner after a good break from Uche Ikpeazu. Andy Irving swung the low ball in to Steven Naismith who peeled away from the Saints defence and clipped into the back of the net at the front post. 

It was the exactly the sort of start the Buddies wanted to avoid, but despite a half-chance from Ikpeazu a few minutes later the Saints response was decent. Good pressure on the Hearts defence by Jon Obika won the away side a corner on 16 minutes. Danny Mullen went down inside the box after the ball was swung in but referee Euan Anderson was unmoved. 

Five minutes later Saints were level. Stephen McGinn forced Hearts goalkeeper Joel Pereira to push away a drive from the edge of the area. The Jambos couldn't clear their lines allowing the ball to come back into the box with Sam Foley swinging the ball into the box on to the head of Andreu who nodded down perfectly into the direction of an unmarked Obika. The striker finished with aplomb to make it 1-1 and get his second goal in St Mirren colours.

However, less than 10 minutes later Hearts were in-front for a second time. A throw-in from the left found Ikpeazu at a tight angle. Vaclav Hladky came out to close the angle but the striker still got a shot away that unfortunately came off the face of defender Sean McLoughlin and landing in the back of the net.

It was setback for Saints who had settled into the game, but they responded in perfect fashion - levelling just three minutes later. The Hearts defence switched off as Hladky launched the ball forward allowing Mullen the chance to race clear on goal. The striker made no mistake as he kept his composure to slot beyond Pereira to get the Buddies level for a second time. 

With just two minutes to go until half-time Hearts went 3-2 ahead. The Saints defence didn't deal with Michael Smith's cross allowing Ollie Bozanic to head home from close range. 

Sam Foley went close to getting Saints level for a third time a minute later when he rose highest to meet an Andreu free-kick from the left but nodded just wide.

Coming out after the break it was imperative that Saints got the next goal if they wanted to get anything from the match. But the second half got off to the worst possible start as Jamie Walker headed home within the first minute of the restart to put Hearts 4-2 ahead.

That goal looked to effectively seal the match for the hime side. Not long after the hour mark Andreu smashed a free-kick well over the bar from 30 yards, while a few minutes later the Frenchman also flashed a half-volley over from the edge of the area. 

There were 13 minutes remaining when Jake Mulraney put the seal on a good day for the home side with an excellent finish from 20 yards. The substitute played a neat one-two with Naismith on the left touchline, drifted inside and curled high into the right corner of the net to make it 5-2.

Sean McLoughlin almost grabbed a consolation with less than 10 minutes remaining after a powerful effort from 35 yards that Pereira did brilliantly to tip over the bar, while Hladky made a good stop to push Mulraney's attempt wide to deny Hearts a sixth a few minutes later. 

Up next is Ross County at home following the international break and with three of the next four matches at the Simple Digital Arena Jim Goodwin's men will be desperate to put today's result behind them and try to lift themselves from the foot of the table.

Match Preview: Hearts v St Mirren (9th Nov)

St Mirren are off to Scotland's capital tomorrow afternoon as Jim Goodwin's side face managerless Hearts at Tynecastle. 

FORM

St Mirren - LLWLDD

Hearts - LLDDLD

Results last midweek saw St Mirren fall to the bottom of the Ladbrokes Premiership.

The Buddies, who weren't in action at the weekend due to a fixture clash with the Betfred Cup semi-final, lost 2-0 to Celtic at Celtic Park last Wednesday. That result, coupled with a 1-0 defeat away to St Johnstone for Hearts, a loss that saw them part company with Craig Levein as manager, and a 2-2 draw for Hibernian against Livingston, saw Saints finish the evening in 12th place. 

Jim Goodwin's side have yet to take a point on the road this season, but have only lost two of those six away games by more than one goal.

The Jambos sit level on points with Saints, but are one place above due to goal difference. They have failed to win in their last six and have won just once in the league this season - a 2-1 victory at Easter Road in the Edinburgh derby back in September.

Austin McPhee is in temporary charge of the Edinburgh side following the Levein's departure but he couldn't help Hearts book a place in the Betfred Cup final last Sunday as they lost 3-0 to Rangers at Hampden. 

A win for either side tomorrow could see them move up to eighth in the league depending on results elsewhere. 

PREVIOUS

St Mirren have already taken on Hearts this season. The two were unable to be separated in a 0-0 draw at the Simple Digital Arena in the Ladbrokes Premiership at the end of September.

The Buddies last visit to Tynecastle was in February of this year with Saints coming from behind to pick up a point in a 1-1 draw.

St Mirren's last win against Hearts was in November 2018 as a double from Adam Hammill gave the Buddies a 2-0 win at the Simple Digital Arena. While our last win at Tynecastle came back in October 2013 with John McGinn and Paul McGowan on the scoresheet as Saints won 2-0. 

Hearts last win over Saints came in the first meeting of the two at Tynecastle last season. Steven Naismith scored a hat-trick in a 4-1 win for the hosts in August 2018.

TEAM NEWS

Cody Cooke played 60 minutes for the reserves on Tuesday afternoon and could make the squad for the first time since July. 

However, the match will come too soon for Kyle McAllister. The manager does, however, expect the winger to be available for the upcoming Ross County match.

Craig Halkett remains out for the hosts having come off injured the last time the Jambos faced Saints. Ben Garuccio, John Souttar, Jake Mulraney and Connor Washington are also out.

Steven Naismith made his Hearts return as a substitute in Sunday's loss to Rangers. 

MANAGER'S THOUGHTS

"We've not had a good enough points return from the opening round of games and we've got to try and improve on that in the second round of games. That's starts this Saturday at Tynecastle.

"The league is extremely tight and I think it is going to remain that way right till the end. I think that sixth place in the top half will be up for grabs and I think it's going to be very exciting for a number of us.

"We have to start picking up points on the road. Our away form has been poor and we'll look to do something about that this weekend.

"It's always a great away day. It's always a good atmosphere, the pitch is always in good condition and our boys will certainly look forward to it."
