Stephen Robinson says defensive errors cost St Mirren and calls for better decision-making in 'key moments'
dailyrecord.co.ukStephen Robinson believes defensive lapses cost St Mirren dearly against St Johnstone. The Buddies’ backline were all at sea for Nicky Clark’s opening goal, with the visitors cut open with ease for the home side’s second and third.
