It was Sheffield United who netted the first goal but it did come from a Saints blunder; on 12th minute James Beattie slipped the ball through the defender for Gillespie to fire home at the angle.
After that things went to pot when Gregor Rasiak (19) levelled for the visitors before Jhon Viafara (31) capitalised on a terrible punch by Paddy Kenny to fire into an empty net.
