Vernon double for Aberdeen and Sammon goodbye for Kilmarnock
Craig Brown revival keeps rolling on
A home match against St Mirren is one that most teams in the SPL should feel as though they are capable of winning but until Craig Brown took over at Pittodrie, how many Aberdeen fans would have said they would win?
The appointment of the old fella has revitalised the fortune of the Dons and a comfortable 2-0 victory over St Mirren was no surprise. Scott Vernon continued his good run of form with both goals against the Paisley side, who are still embroiled in a relegation dog fight which is becoming harsher by the week.
Elsewhere in the SPL, Connor Sammon netted again for Kilmarnock but it seems it could be the final time that Killie have fed the fish for him to score. The duo of Alexei Emerenko and Sammon connected once again to create the goal but the striker could be off to Scunthorpe if terms can be agreed.
Cleveland Taylor denied the Ayrshire team a win with an equaliser on 84 minutes. After Peter McDonald’s later winner in midweek at Tynecastle, the timing of St Johnstone’s goals have been impeccable.
At Fir Park, Motherwell and Inverness Caley Thistle played out an uninspiring 0-0 draw. With Mark Reynolds missing out for Motherwell with a deal to sign for Sheffield Wednesday in the offing, Stuart McCall will hope for a quiet period and perhaps the opportunity to strengthen his squad.
With Tannadice once again being deemed unplayable, Dundee United and Hearts had a blank weekend.
