If United produce a performance similar to the Brechin one but win by two, then where will be a negative reaction, as the next game could herald another St Mirren type result, he/they might get slaughtered.

If we come flying out the traps, dominate the game, play some nice stuff, look like a team rather than a bunch of guys who've just met, but only win by two, then that's different, that would give us a bit of hope.
