3 big games coming up where we need to pick up as many points as we can get. Considering our challengers fixtures this stretch could go a long way to securing 3rd spot or see us pitched into a dog fight for 3rd place. St Mirren (A) Hearts (H) Hibs(H) Here's hoping the lads can string some good results together. While I hope we play well in all 3 games it's all about grinding out results and getting the points on the board.

I'm hoping we can get to the split with 3rd place in the Bag. Considering the most our nearest challenger would get after the split is probably 9 points. If we are 10 points ahead at the split then for me it's in the bag. Considering we are now 6 points ahead it's not an impossible task but obviously one that requires we keep picking up points.

I fear you may be correct Folkie..........plus maybe yellow for simulation or perhaps even a straight red since he stooped to the level of cleverly simulating bruises and bleeding

I know it would be nice to be in 3rd place and to be taking points off of Celtic and Rangers but given the choice i will go with third place and zero points from the old firm. Again McCall did make an unpopular statement at the start of the season that it's how you do against all the other teams and not against the old firm. Unpopular words but at this point can't argue with the man's statement.

..........And I bet he won't lie down to the old firm. So heres hoping his enthusiasm and attitude rubs off on the rest of the players ( which I think it has done ) and we can actually manage to take some points from them, be interesting to see how they handle him.

I wasn't evn looking for him to be scoring goals but more making chances so the number of goals he is scoring is a bonus. But, as I may have stated elsewhere Ojamma is now another attacking option that opposition teams have to deal with. So if defences stiffle him out then chances are, one of our other palyers are going to punish them. I hope we are going from now to the end of the season as an aggressive attacking team. I really think that most teams will not be able to counter all of our attacking threats.

Ok Who are you and what have you done with the real MJC ??? LOL you may be the profit of doom but I am sure you are as delighted as the rest of us when we win!

and if i recall correctly i think Willlie Watson was right back at that time too and he wasn't exactly Mr Nice guy either!!!!

Speaking of impact.............I remember when Roger Hynd became manager. Peter Miller played like Beckenbaur for about half a dozen games............then fell back into the "kick his own granny" style of play. What a half back line in those days Miller McVie McLaren Not sure how long they would last nowadays?? They didn't mess around!!

I think he wil be a great signing for us. Teams can set up to combat players with certain styles eg Humphrey's speed. passing the bal on the ground, high balls in the centre etc but with players like Ojamma who have the natural ability to beat players it is very hard to combat other than kickin lumps out of him. Additionally it gives us another weapon and teams can only set up to combat so much. Even with Humphrey playing under par he was still occupying an extra defender so now are teams also going to deploy another extrfa defender to combat Ojamma as well? We may have a small squad but I think we have enough attacking threats now to make it a real problem for teams to snuff us out. C'Mon Ye Well!!

Hatrick Ojamaa Has a nice ring to it !!

Yep! I was just thinking that myself. Hopefully not.

WELL DONE JAMIE MURPHY!!!!! Nice to see that not everyone runs off at the first chance of more money. He has a lot of talent but going through a tough patch just now. I am sure he will come good again. and if that happens and then he leaves us I wil lbe more than happy for him. I hope the crowd gets behind him Saturday and shows our appreciation for him remaining at the club. We areleady threadbare squad and I think it is GREAT that he is staying, even it turnsout to be just till the end of the season. GAUN YERSEL JAMIE !!!!

Ithink he will come good again for us.

Aberdeen might be bale to offer him more money but we can offer him european football *** able

when we sell him let's male sure it is to an english or foreign team.

Nice one eddie but all the young uns are going........WHAT????

Well it sounds like the players are doin their bit to turn things around so lets hope ALL the fans can get behind them for the rest of the season. Let's be honest how many people were expecting us to be 6 points clear in third place at this point in the season??? What a great achievement in itself! I just wish we could get more supporters to turn out. I know there are many reasons but hopefully some of the regulars can talk some of our armchair fans into coming back to a few home games for the run in to the end of the season. Would be great to qualify for europe as 3rd palce team!

Nice to see us 6 points clear and controlling our own fate. 9 games till the split. I am hoping we can get there with a 10 point cushion. I don't know what the real numbers are but my perception is that other than rangers and celtic the max points any team in the top half will get after the split is 9 points. We will need to continue to get results but it seems "the sheriff" has injected some new life into the team and the last 2 games have hopefully got the players fired up again. So heres hoping we have a good run in to the split. Was going to say the next big game is V Hearts at Fir Park but the good thing ( I think it's good? ) is that every next game is the big game since we need all the points we can get.

yep have to take a chance and get him signed up for longer. As was said, if you wait to confirm his talent then it's too late cause we won't have enough money to compete with all the other clubs who would then like to sign him. Surely we can get him signed up with some agreement to allow him to move on if an english or foreign club comes in for him. Certainly don't want him to move to another Scottish club,

@foghorn.................."is that you Stevie"?

We should be so pissed off about this Higdon crap that we should be really fired up and go out there and run all over St Johnstone.

This whole process is utter shite. what was it meant to address? Don't we have a fourth official who can chime in during the game if they see anythin? If noe of the 4 of them see anythin then leave it at that. BUT if broadfoot is correct and all clubs agreed then worst case we have to live with this crap till next AGM when all the clubs can agree to GITF. or bestd case all the clubs get together and call a meeting to end this shite now cause it is certainly not helping the game any.

rememeber how much money we DON'T have. If higdon was taking all his chances he would not be playing with us. FFS look at the howler Torres had last month or so. Most striked miss more than they score. I don't get to see the games but from the number he has scored for us I think he is doing just fine.

Interesting to read Henry's thoughts on a similar topic to this "When I arrived in front of our own fans, I couldn't understand the abuse the team were getting from one of them. "I wanted to tell the fan in question that we need their support not abuse." http://www.sportinglife.com/football/news/story_get.cgi?STORY_NAME=soccer/12/01/17/SOCCER_Arsenal_Henry.html&BID=165
