Kmcalpin Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Can only echo what everyone else has said. Absolutely amazing achivement for a club of our size, fanbase and finances. Â Never thought that I would ever see a time that we were in European competition year after year. Â Â I can only second that. The management and players have done us proud on a low budget. Â However the Directors and Chief Executive must also take a lot of credit for appointing the right manager and setting a decent and realistic budget. Folk on here are quick enough to criticise them when small things go awry but we must have one of the best sets of Directors in the country. I wouldn't swap them for their counterparts at Pittodrie, Tannadice, Easter Road or Tynecastle. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welldaft Mk1 Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 There's 7 teams finished below us with far larger budgets, with far larger playing squads and with far larger fan bases..............and there can't be much in it with 3 of the other 4.  Mega kudos to all at FP. Quality achievement  Not to be pedantic Big man. I only count 5 teams below us with bigger budgets :-)  Heck of an achievement by the Manager, Players and Board. Still the fans played their part. I think in almost all teams the away support has dwindled, yet with Mother well I think it has stayed fairly steady if not grown down to the young lads.  Looking forward to tomorrow - few beers to celebrate what has been a fantastic season. Would be nice to have warm sunshine in May. But this is Scotland and that is asking a LOT.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malky79 Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Just me wishing Inverness could have won so we could seal it ourselves tomorrow? Â Still rather pleased though I hope the team signs off last home game with a good performance. This is going to be the longest close season ever I reckon.

Kmcalpin Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Apologies, I should also have mentioned the fans. In our young lads we must have the best travelling support in Scotland, pound for pound. On occasion they may be a little OTT, but thats the enthusiasm of youth. They've added much needed atmosphere both home and away. Take a bow lads! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ditto that ......................... and we must prepare ourselves for the not so good times, as they will come - that is inevitable in this game - and hopefully not be so quick to let our emotions rule our mouths/keyboard fingers.

El Grew Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 Absolutely terrific. Well done and congratulations to the players, management, coaching staff and the board. As I have said on previous topics, for me this means we have won the league because second place is the best that any non-old firm club can do as its impossible to compete with their resources. So champions for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
