SMITH SALUTES SUPPORT

7th May 2001

Charlie Miller and Jamie McCunnie are expected to recover from injuries picked up in Sunday's win over Dunfermline in time to face St Johnstone at McDiarmid Park on Saturday.

Miller suffered a dead leg while McCunnie had to come off late in the second half with an ankle problem, but neither injury is serious and the pair should be in their usual places. With Saturday's game providing the Tangerines with the opportunity to clinch their place in the top flight for next season, over 3000 fans are expected to travel to Perth and the club have once again confirmed they will be paying for supporters' buses.

"Our fans were wonderful again yesterday and while it will be a tough game on Saturday, the fact so many will travel to back us will be a big help," said boss Alex Smith on Monday.
