The exact team I would play

Not sure you see much Championship games but the standard has taken a big nose dive.

I know this is tongue in cheek - but it's accurate. Which one do you suffer with the least by withdrawing one?

I think this is most likely - good point

But the question remains, as it does in most football clubs nowadays, who is signing the players? I don't doubt the manager has partial involvement but not wholly so...... We employ someone to identify players. That's their sole role.

I was. Just imagine though if that happened. Jinx. Genuinely 1-2, playing not bad, not carrying the luck required is my real guess, hope I am wrong.

Hearts are amazing, really really great side with a brilliant manager. Shankland will tear us apart beating 11 players and score within one minute. We however are a team full of donkeys that would struggle to beat East Stirling. Our Keeper is the size of Hasbulla & if Kettlewell had any integrity he would leave the club in the next 5 minutes. 9-1 Hearts (Biereth)

Happy Clappers. Such a patronising phrase. Let's fire out Negative Nancies at you boys for your style. If you add up the points you predict we will get in any season be lucky if it's double figures. Complete joke. Forums suit negative people like yourself and Steelboy. Trying to talk the loudest and criticising everyone who doesn't share your viewpoint. Tell me this why have the Hibs, Livingston, Ross County managers not been sacked yet?

Who finished higher in the league last season? Who was in the play off? Bunch of panic merchants in here.

Absolute doom and gloom panic merchant.

Because if you look at some of the goals we conceded - SOD has let the ball goes over his head and someone is unmarked at back post. If he cuts out this flaw then he'll do.

I agree with you I really hoped in the year they looked like putting up a challenge they could have extended their run. Also to add some teams anthems can be stirring if you put a neutral hat on. I've attended a lot of non-Motherwell games and you can see from a different perspective plus it's way less nerve wracking!

Something tells me though Fletcher isn't just sitting on his butt. A complete guess I know, but I reckon he's a pro that's kept himself pretty fit, maybe not match fit, but a few weeks would change that. A lot of what Fletcher can give is in his brain, an intelligent player who can give assists as well as goals.

Lastly - adding to this probability. We don't have a top six budget - the city clubs do. So to have 37 years - repeating the same feat, is gambling against all odds. Rolling a one in six chance over 37 years. We have zero divine right to be in the SPL, safety as much as it may be scorned is a success for us.

The bigger question will we be ok? For a while - but after 37 seasons in the top league our luck will run out at some point. It has to. Will it be that bad, probably as not as much as your Dunfermline - esque punters fear.

C'mon he predicts we will get at least 20 points per season. I can see his grounding, cup game, difficult opposition - a home win was the favourite.

That's my point though Soare is the back up guy. Furlong is the nailed on starter. To add McGinley (as Kettlewell has done very well, is moved on)

Even one game on - this is still entirely the incorrect option. Souare is injury prone.

Absolutely, I pointed this out - on the ins and outs thread re Souare - when someone said "he will do" - I pointed out gambling everything on him is completely wrong.

You do realise people get injured

Agreed, but heres hoping we are wrong
