ONLY HARD WORK CAN LIFT US OUT OF THIS

Fraser's call to struggling Saints stars

- TAYLOR MURRAY

Marcus Fraser insists the St Mirren squad need to have a look in the mirror as he vowed to "work harder" to turn results around.

It was another bleak weekend for the black-and-white army as they watched their side fall to a 3-1 defeat to Dundee — a sixth loss in seven Premiership games.

Mikael Mandron's opener offered hope that a sorry league run was about to come to an end but Alex Gogic's own goal wiped out that advantage.

From there, things got worse with Drey Wright giving Dee the lead before Joe Westley confirmed all three points late on.

Fraser now wants his Buddies to knuckle down in a bid to move away from the bottom of the table

And while scoring goals is a problem, the defender admitted there is no excuse for conceding sloppy ones at the other end.
