Stephen Robinson was shocked to see his troops misfire in their goalless draw against Kilmarnock after looking so slick in training.
The Buddies worked hard at Ralston all week but couldn't translate their efforts into Saturday's clash with Killie, that ultimately ended goalless thanks to St Mirren keeper Trevor Carson's heroics between the sticks.
Robinson admitted his side were far from their best and was more than happy to escape with a point.
