Airdrie travelled to Perth trying to continue our unbeaten run together, with that in mind most of us expected an excellent game to ensue.
St Johnstone kicked off the match and until Jason Scotland scored on the 28th minute that was really, all there is to report. The goal came after a one - two between Ryan Stevenson and Scotland opened up the Airdrie United defence.
Up until then the game had been pretty even both defence breaking up any attacking play.

The second half continued along much the same lines, Airdrie started the brightest and we put pressure on Cuthbert and the St Johnstone defence. The break off the ball a little bit of luck may have help but unfortunately, it was not meant to be.
Brian McPhee once again presented us with a golden chance to take something from the game, instead of taking the chance to shoot from the corner of the box he skilfully laid it in to the path of Stephen McKeown. Once again, the St Johnstone defence were up to the challenge and blocked the shot.

While Airdrie United were pushing forward St Johnstone could have stolen another goal when Stephen Dobbie broke free, Stephen Robertson in the Airdrie United goal kept the score line at 1 - 0 after he pulled off a fantastic save.
