Report from the BBC.

Saint Johnstone 0 Ross County 0

St Johnstone extended their lead at the top of the First Division despite yet another disappointing draw.
Steven Craig missed a gilt-edged chance for Ross County early on in a poor game with few moments of excitement.
Saints squandered a great opportunity when Collin Samuel's cross was headed straight at keeper Derek Soutar by Derek Holmes.
St Johnstone turned up the pressure in the closing stages but could not break down a stubborn County defence.
