Spit_It_Out Posted April 9, 2023 Report Share Posted April 9, 2023 4 minutes ago, Yorkyred said: I think that’s fair, time to look forward now. KVV was immense yesterday, I noticed a quote from a pundit stating he’s the best striker in the division outside of Glasgow and that’s hard to argue against when you look at his technical ability. Other than that a really organised and professional performance from the team. I was listening to Martindale talking yesterday after the match and he said the exact same thing that KVV is the best outside the old firm.The club might get that wee transfer dangler during the summer window for him. Onwards and upwards for rest of the season and next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Under Kettlewell, we’ve been transformed into a more competitive, well organised team, capable of winning games of football. I also accept that avoiding relegation was the first priority for Kettlewell and he definitely looks to have done that but we aren’t there yet. Far more to be optimistic than we dared believe a few short months ago. And we are certainly looking up and not down It wouldn’t matter who the manager was, Europe is a level way beyond our reach and we are never going to compete at there. I know it’s obviously good for the club, on paper at least but if we’re being honest Europe to us is a few glorified friendlies at the start of a season. I view it as an added bonus for (normally) a good season in the league and a 3rd/4th placed finish, or even better, winning a Cup. It is not though some kind of holy grail as alot of our fans seem to think it is and when it is achieved in the spawny, lucky manner we did it last year then it feels even less of a bonus. 14 hours ago, steelboy said: Money from being in Europe allowed us to sign players to keep us up. Getting Europe is always a positive. Did it though? I always thought that prize money for playing in European competition wasn’t handed out until the end of the campaign, so if so we won’t have seen a penny of that money yet. And to be honest I doubt we get that much that we would be able to sufficiently invest in the squad anyway. 17 hours ago, Robbos boy said: So you have, MJC, predicting a defeat ever week No I don’t.

Not winning another game was a bit more of a stretch but it didn’t look out of the question in the latter stages of Hammell’s tenure. We aren’t out of danger yet either and we could have done without County winning yesterday and Utd currently beating Hibs. If that result stays the same and they come to Fir Park and beat us then we will be right back in the mix for the drop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grizzlyg Posted April 9, 2023 Report Share Posted April 9, 2023 If utd hold on then we still have a big cushion plus remember we are basically 5pts ahead of st j as our goal difference is like an extra point. Come split everyone takes points off each other so I genuinely think we will be safe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utd have just scored what looks like will be a last minute winner against Hibs. If they come to us next week and win that is a huge momentum boost for them and we will be looking over our shoulders. Next Saturday might not be ‘must win’ for us but it absolutely is ‘must not lose’. 4 minutes ago, Robbos boy said: There you go again, we aren't out of danger, of course we are, remember our goal difference is worth another point, plus St Johnstone are also on a terrible run. Are we mathematically safe yet? No. Is it still possible for us to finish 11th or 12th? Yes. Could we lose at home against Utd next week? It’s possible, just like it’s possible that we could win, or draw. To suggest that we are “out of danger” right now is as ludicrous as saying we still have a chance of top six when we we would need to go to Celtic Park and win for that to happen.

Kmcalpin Posted April 9, 2023 Report Share Posted April 9, 2023 Come the split, there will probably be only a single point separating the bottom 3 teams. After that it'll be dog eat dog. We're by no means safe yet but its looking good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily, if Hibs and Livi pick up no points from their next two games then a win and a draw would be enough as our GD would be better than Hibs. Alternatively we could lose the next two games, United and RC could win theirs and we could be right back in it, half full / half empty - take your pick folks.

Agreed, we are Currently 9 and 11 points clear of 11th and 12th place respectively, effectively 10 and 12 pts given the goal difference, so thats 4 or 5 games to make up that gap, neither RC or Untd or Kille for that matter are going to get 4/5 wins in a row and we get nothing from the last 7 games.
