St Mirren striker Gavin Reilly says the Buddies have no one to fear after their good start to the season.

Saints have picked up three wins from four in the league and six wins from their last seven matches in all competitions. 

It's a run that sees the Buddies sit joint second in the Ladbrokes Championship ahead of this weekend's match against Inverness Caledonian Thistle at the Paisley 2021 Stadium. 

The 24 year-old cut a frustrated figure during his loan spell at fellow Championship side Dunfermline last season.

However, he has proved to be anything but in his time at Saints so far with his eight goals in his first 10 appearances in the black and white a major factor in the Buddies good start to the campaign.

Speaking to stmirren.com, Reilly said: "After last season it is good to hit the ground running.

The other boys have chipped in with goals, but to get eight goals in 10 appearances I'm absolutely delighted.

"Goals are important but the main thing I wanted to do was get back to playing regularly on a Saturday. That's happened so far and the goals have been there as well so that is positive.

"Apart from the Partick Thistle and Morton matches I think we have been decent in every match. Nine points from the first four games is a good start and gives us a good chance to go and build upon that with the games coming up.

"It's still early days, but we put a good marker down against Dundee United. It was a great win for the boys. 

"Inverness haven't gotten off to a great start but we will give them the respect they are due. They are a team that has just come down from the Premiership and they have got some good players.

"But we are at home so we should be looking to win that and take it on to the Dunfermline game away. With the belief we have right now and the momentum we are building up there is no one to be scared of."

The striker added two goals to his tally in the win over Hearts Colts in the second round of the IRN-BRU Cup on Saturday. 

Saints were drawn against League One side Raith Rovers in the third round of the tournament yesterday.

He was speaking before the draw, but his hopes of a home tie were granted when it was announced that Buddies will face Rovers at the Paisley 2021 Stadium on the weekend of 7/8th October. 

A winner of this competition back in 2013, the striker is hungry to get his hands on it again this season. 

You would like to get someone at home and get through to the next round," he said.

"I've won that competition before and the gaffer says he want to win it as well.

"It would be good to get another cup run and we just need to see what happens."  

The St Mirren U20s fell to a 4-1 defeat at the hands of Motherwell at Forthbank Stadium in the SPFL Development League. 

The hosts took the lead on 14 minutes when David Turnbull slotted the ball beyond Chris Henry to draw first blood. 

St Mirren were back on terms 10 minutes later though when Dylan McKendry prodded home after the Steelmen failed to clear their lines from a Saints corner. 

Both sides had chances to go ahead after the break with Andrew McDonald hitting the post for Saints and Henry pulling off a terrific save to deny Motherwell's James Scott. 

But it was the home side who would seize the initiative on 66 minutes as Adam Livingstone cut in from the left side and curled the ball into the back of the net. 

It was effectively game over a little over five minutes later when Shaun Bowers headed home a Steven Hammell free-kick. 

While Saints tried to get back into the match, Motherwell would grab a fourth on 83 minutes. Once again Hammell was the provider, with Scott a willing recipient as he got in ahead of the St Mirren defence to score with a header in off the post. 

With that the Young Buddies search for a first SPFL Development League win continues after a draw and two losses in their opening three matches.

Gordon said: "I'm delighted to be taking part. It was something that I was already planning to do, so, when Gayle asked me if I would be interested in representing the club and the charity, I was more than happy to do so. The event is for a good cause, so I am really looking forward to it." 

Gayle Brannigan, Chief Executive of Pro-Life, is also taking part in the event to raise money for the Renfrewshire Sports Charity.

She said: "Anyone can get involved - all they need to do is contact the gym and get it sorted. The Pro-Life Pedalers will be out in force and doing everything they can to raise money for the charity."
