St Mirren assistant boss Brian Kerr believes their 5-1 thumping of Kilmarnock was overdue.
The Buddies ran riot against the Rugby Park side, dominating from the start.
They stormed into a two-goal lead inside the opening nine minutes thanks to Caolan Boyd-Munce’s low strike and Roland Idowu tucking the ball away from the penalty spot.
Boyd-Munce added his second of the afternoon just before the hour mark, then Mark O’Hara and Declan John both found the net within a four-minute spell to heap further misery on the beleaguered visitors.
St Mirren are now one place and one point outside the top six in the William Hill Premiership with two games remaining before the split.
“I think the performance was excellent, I think it was coming to be honest,” Kerr said.
“We’ve had some real good performances over the last seven or eight weeks without the result backing that up.
“It just felt everyone was bang at it today, we had a real good feeling about how the boys had prepared.
“Everything has come together, it was a right good performance and result.”
Saints’ two-goal hero Boyd-Munce was available for selection after recovering from a concussion suffered a fortnight ago in their 2-2 draw with Motherwell.
Kerr was delighted at the impact of the central midfielder who, alongside Killian Phillips, recovered in time to play a huge part in St Mirren’s biggest league win in over four years.
Kerr added: “We had three or four boys this week that were patched up and we were a wee bit concerned that they might not make the game.
“Killian came through it, as did Caolan with two goals and a superb performance.”
Bruce Anderson penalty proved to be nothing more than a consolation for Killie, who remain in danger at the bottom of the Premiership table.
Derek McInnes felt his side never got to grips with the tough conditions at the SMISA Stadium and apologised to the large travelling support that made the trip to Paisley.
However, he is remaining optimistic that his team are more than capable of pulling themselves away from danger.
He said: “It was such a disappointing afternoon, we never got out at the start.
“I can only apologise to the supporters – they deserve better than that. The conditions were horrendous, more so for my players into the wind but it’s not an excuse.
“I think we will (stay up), I think we’re better than some teams in the league. I feel we’ve got bigger and better performances in us.
Obviously, we’re going to be in the bottom six, the only team that we play that won’t be in and around us will be Celtic.”
