Assuming we stay with 2 up front then I think the suggestion that Winter gets a starting gig is likely. Can’t think of another option other than Smith. I’d take a draw although like all our games currently 3 are essential.

Rice’s pre game comments here. Jamie Hamilton might be back or he might not. Thomas to take Bruce’s slot?

It’s one of the fixtures I don’t anticipate points from, so any point today is a bonus. Hopefully Smith or Winter are inspired by Bruce Anderson’s efforts and put in a match winning performance.

While I’ll take that. Considering we started without Oggie and Bruce against a side we have rarely challenged at Pittodrie a well earned point. We remain unbeaten in 6 and move of the foot of the table. Negatives? Our injury list just gets worse. Easton looks as though he could be out again for a few games. Thomas wasn’t match fit and looks as though he could be out for a while and Winters injured in the pre match warm up! Motherwell had a good win and move further away from the bottom 3 and County move 3 above us. Still not unhappy Onwards and upwards.

Yes, quite happy with those two results. County not uncatchable and we have to hope Killie get no boosts. Look at their last ten - LLLLLLLLDL

Injuries are worrying. No sign of Want either. Munro may be a regular from now on.

The most positive thing from today was the attitude.

No matter what was thrown at them, they kept at it.

Happy with the draw, but still disappointed we didn't win!

Nerve wracking 9 minutes of extra time but we got the point.

The Considine handball would have been a penalty at the other end.
Hamilton off at Easter Road
Offside goal for St Johnstone
...we certainly don’t get the breaks

Add to the recent refereeing decisions, the injury list involving key players currently or for long parts of the season in what is a weak squad (Temps, Lewis H, Want, Easton, Thomas,Scott Martin) it’s a miracle we are even 11th.

Game panned out as expected and with such a paucity of attacking threat, we take the point and move on.

A fully fit Nathan Thomas,ditto Ogympoe, Lewis Smith, Templeton and Bruce Anderson all available would have us in midtable if we had these options most of the season.

Even young Winter succumbed to the injury curse pre match and no side would have coped with what we have had out missing for large periods of the season

On not getting the breaks from officials, it does happen to our rivals too. St Mirren's winning penalty against County last week was pretty dodgy and another ref may have allowed Killie's "second" against Dundee United, when the ball was judged to have been in the keeper's hand when it was kicked out and Lafferty scored.

How many managers have been punted after a poor result against Accies
