Saints extend lead to 4 points

Saints have extended their advantage at top of the table thanks to a 1-1 draw at dens park and also extending their unbeaten run to 10 games.

A few changes were forced in the starting line up with Kevin James replacing the missing Stuart McCaffery. Kevin Moon took the place of suspended Martin Hardie but Jody Morris kept his place in the starting 11.

The game was to very hard fought match indeed with the referee making some very decisions and becoming a useful 12th man to the home side. But with the Perth camp keeping their cool and profesionalism about them the pulled infront after a great stop by Alan Main denying the Dee. Main took the ball and punted it right up the field where Derek Holmes dummied the ball to Liam Craig where he unselfishly passed a header to milne to alow Savo to hit home his 7th Goal of the Season. The ex dundee hitman making his mark at his old club and causing an erruption with the 2,000 strong away fans.

Kevin James almost cost us on the blink of half time where his lack of match fitness or decission making casued him to be tackled by a striker but thankfully Alan Main once again came to the rescue showing he can still cut it in the SPL.

In the 2nd Half saints came out hoping to hold onto their lead but Dundee had other plans as they came out more aggressive and hungrier for a goal and made a dent in Saints expectations to further themselves away from the 1st division pack when Paton ran up the right wing and crossed in a pacey low drive where Courier was able to tap it in from close range.

The game was still action packed and had either side of the 6,500+ fans on the edge of their seats when both keepers had to pull out remarkable saves to deny their opposition. But a point is a point and Saints will be happy to be sitting top of the table clear by 4 points.
