Two wins from two - the 'fuel' that's driving St Mirren
St Mirren were many people's favourites for relegation, so how come they have started with two opening wins in the Scottish Premiership?
St Mirren have kicked off their Scottish Premiership campaign with two consecutive wins, defeating Falkirk and St Johnstone, while maintaining a clean sheet in both matches. This impressive start has seen the Paisley side climb to the top of the table, a stark contrast to last season when they narrowly avoided relegation. Manager Craig McLeish attributes their success to returning to basics and using the motivation from last season's play-off.
With six points from their first six games, McLeish expresses confidence in his team and their ability to maintain high standards. Midfielder Killian Phillips, who has scored all three of St Mirren's goals this season, is also a crucial part of their resurgence, with manager McLeish discussing his potential future.
