“SOLID BASE”
St Johnstone player-manager Owen Coyle was still in a buoyant mood after his team’s 3-1 home success over Brechin City (writes James Masson).
Although he admitted his team should’ve taken more points out of the first quarter, he added, “We have a solid base to build on.”

Owen was enthralled at Saints’ first goal on Saturday. “It was a great move,” he said. “Simon Mensing to Ryan Stevenson to Darren Sheridan, back to Ryan and into the net.

“And Paul Sheerin set up goals No. 2 and 3. You won’t get a more honest player than Paul and he wants to get better. He can add goals to his play and, once he gets one, he’ll get a few.”
