During the January transfer window a number of players moved out on loan to play regular football. Here's a look at how some of them got on last weekend. 

Darryl Duffy netted his third Airdrieonians goal as The Diamonds held promotion chasing Alloa to a 2-2 draw at The Indodrill Stadium. Airdrieonians fell behind twice to Jim Goodwin's side but pegged them back to gain a point. Jordan Kirkpatrick was substituted for Alloa after 70 minutes while Ross Stewart played the full 90.

Darren Whyte played the full match for Forfar on Saturday but couldn't help prevent them falling to a 2-0 defeat at home to league leaders Ayr United. Forfar still remain a point ahead Albion Rovers in the battle to avoid the drop.

Robbie Leitch was a second half substitute as bottom side Queens Park defeated Stranraer 3-2 at Stair Park to move within a point of Albion Rovers. Cameron MacPherson played the full match for Stranraer. 

In League Two, Evan Horne and Conor O'Keefe featured for Annan Athletic as they were held to a 1-1 draw with Clyde at Galabank. Horne played the full match while O'Keefe was a 68th minute substitute. 

Andrew McDonald played the full match for play-off chasing Elgin City as they fell to a shock 3-1 defeat away to bottom side Cowdenbeath.

St Mirren manager Jack Ross gives his thoughts on today's 3-1 win over Queen of the South in the Ladbrokes Championship.

The Buddies moved 12 points clear at the top thanks to goals from Danny Mullen, Lewis Morgan and Kyle Magennis.

St Mirren faced off with Queen of the South on what was a cold and Breezy day at Palmerston Park. Two changes to last week's squad, with Jack Baird coming in for Harry Davis, and Gavin Reilly drops out for the return of Lewis Morgan after missing last week due to tonsillitis.

The league leaders knew going into the game that win would take them ever closer to their end goal of winning the Scottish Championship, and that’s exactly what they did, defeating The Doonhamers 3-1 to move 12 points clear at the top. 

It was a slow start to the game, with neither team creating very much. It took to the 9th minute before saints had their first attempt on goal - a 25 yard hit from Mullen which sailed over the crossbar, never troubling goalkeeper Jack Leighfield.

The first big chance of the game fell to St Mirren on the 15th minute, after some nice work down the right by Liam Smith, Ryan Flynn whipped the ball into the box and Kyle Magennis got a head onto it, as it narrowly crept past the post. Seconds later Cammy Smith had a shot from the just outside the box that was directed straight at Leighfield, who fumbled the ball over his own crossbar instead of collecting it comfortably, like he should have.

17 minutes into the game and the deadlock was broken. A jinky run from Lewis Morgan, cutting inside from the right, resulted in Morgan slipping in Danny Mullen who managed to drill the ball across Leighfield to get his first goal for The Buddies. A finish any forward would have been proud of.

After 21 minutes though, The Doonhamer’s equalised, as Jordan Marshall sprinted past Liam Smith on the left wing, and with only Craig Samson to beat he slipped the ball past the Saint’s number one to even the score at 1-1.

Queens nearly put themselves into the lead on 33 minutes, as captain John Rankin found plenty of space in the middle of then park. He continued his run towards goal untouched, all the way to the 18 yard line before his shot drifted wide of Samson’s right hand post.

The Buddies last chance in the half came from another long range effort from Mullen, which went well wide of the target, as St Mirren struggled to get back in the game after Queens equaliser. Just before half time the team from Dumfries had a chance to take the lead through Dominic Thomas, who worked a bit of room on the edge of The Saint’s box, but his shot went straight down the middle and was an easy save for Samson in the end. 

Half Time: Queen of the South 1-1 St Mirren

Right after the restart Saints had a decent chance to restore their lead. Two minutes into the second half the ball was put into the box by Liam Smith and was only half cleared from Queens, before Morgan’s half volley was always rising as it went over the crossbar.

On the 52nd minute a free kick was awarded to Saints 20 yards from goal, after a foul on Lewis Morgan. The winger stepped up to take the free kick himself and made no mistake as he curled it low into the bottom left hand corner to restore the Paisley side’s lead to 2-1.

A big chance for Saints came on the 55 minute mark. A McGinn in-swinging freekick from about 40 yards out landed at the feet of Gary MacKenzie in the six yard box. With the goal at his mercy, the big centre couldn’t turn the ball goalwards, as the Queens keeper collected the ball.

64 minutes into the second period and The Buddies increased their lead to 3-1 and all but put the game out of reach for Gary Naysmith’s side. A delicate little touch from Lewis Morgan in the middle of the park released Kyle Magennis, who managed to storm past the home defence and power the ball across Jack Leighfield in a fantastic solo effort. No question about it being his goal this time.

There was very little in the way of chances for the rest of the game after St Mirren’s third, as Jack Ross’ team remained in full control for the remainder of the match. The only other chance of the game came on the 91st minute, when Gary MacKenzie’s header from a McGinn freekick was goalbound. However, a terrific stop from Leighfield managed to tip the ball wide to prevent The Buddies from extending their lead any further.

This Saturday will see St Mirren take on Queen of the South at Palmerston Park, as we enter the final quarter of the season with The Buddies still at the top of the Scottish Championship table.

This will be the last time the two sides will face off this season, with The Saints coming out on top on the three previous encounters. St Mirren's last league came against Dunfermline last Saturday, where the team ran out 2-0 winners comfortably in the end. The Doonhamers last game was on Tuesday night - their rescheduled fixture against Dundee Utd - where The Arabs won 3-1.There was some good news for Saint's fans during the week though, as title chasing Livingston failed to beat Morton. The game finished 1-1 after a late deflected effort from the West Lothian side crept inside the post to earn them a point.

The first meeting between St Mirren and Queen of the South this season finished 3-1 to St Mirren at the Paisley 2021 Stadium after a first half strike from Cammy Smith and a double from Lewis Morgan. The first goal came on the 24th minute, when a Liam Smith's cross was knocked down by Gavin Reilly and Cammy Smith moved his feet well before his effort on goal trickled through the hands of Queens' keeper Alan Martin. It was a quick-fire double for the home team though, as three minutes later Lewis Morgan pounced on a ball that fell on the edge of the box after another good delivery from Liam Smith. The tricky winger then unleashed a half volley into the bottom right corner, giving the keeper no chance to put Saints 2-0 up. St Mirren put the game to bed not long after the restart, when Morgan's long range strike on the 54th minute found the bottom corner again, after Queens failed to clear a short corner. The Dumfries side did get a consolation goal on the 64th minute through a header at the back post from Jason Kerr.

The first game at Palmerston was a pivotal game for The Buddies, as they went down 2-0 after just six minutes. A goal from Stephen Dobbie 19 seconds into the game gave the Doonhamers the lead, but it was the second goal on the 6 minute mark from Chris Kane that really rocked Jack Ross' side. In a spirited effort though, the team managed to pull back the two goal deficit before half time through a brace from ex-Queens player Gavin Reilly. The comeback was complete on the 68th minute when Gary MacKenzie got a toe on the end of a Kyle Magennis corner to make the score 3-2 Saints. 

The last match took place only a month ago in Paisley, when two goals in the first half were enough to seal all three points for the home team. Liam Smith got his first goal for the club on four minutes when his audacious 25 yard shot flew into the top corner. The second was added 28 minutes later, when Harry Davis converted a penalty after John Rankin handled the ball inside his own 18 yard box.  

Jack Ross has confirmed that Harry Davis will not take part this weekend, due to a previous knee injury he sustained a year ago, so the manager does not want to risk him on Palmerston's artificial surface. As one drops out another comes in though, as Lewis Morgan has been back in training this week and will be fit to play after his bout of tonsillitis.
