Most teams get a reaction to at thumping, even we managed it after the 0-9. In the context of points and goal swing it was a blow to them, but think key was the first games after the split, if we had managed even a draw, which is why I think that game was as much a not lose as much as a must win, it would be a four way fight now for bottom spot with St Johnstone, even the defeat on Saturday wouldn't have been as disastrous, as it was, that St John result coupled with their win against Livi gave them a massive boost knowing they could usurp us in the league. The fact St John (2x), Killie and County have now all beat us at Tannadice says much.
