Yorkyred Posted May 13, 2023 Report Share Posted May 13, 2023 It’s going to be an interesting summer. Kettlewell has completely turned the club around, can we build on that and be looking at a top six finish again next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s one way to look at it. If we actually do financially benefit from playing in Europe that is. We as a club have been clear in the past that playing in Europe actually costs us more than it earns us. The other way to look at it is avoiding embarrassments like Sligo and Stjarnan and no-show non-events like PAO and Levante is probably more beneficial to the team and the club as a whole. Obviously getting a glamour tie like Dortmund is different and more prestigious but on the whole Europe for us is just a level that is way beyond our reach.

Hearts are still playing that carthorse Sibbick so they would be mental not to make him an offer. Looking at the table Dundee United won't be safe by the final game even if they win the next two so that should make for an interesting game.

Shocking pitch. Apart from lumps and bumps it has several slopes that need levelled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dundee are going to be in the top flight next season, they will bring a healthy support as they always do so that would make up for Utd not being there. Dundee Utd are a club that I have absolutely no time for. Arrogant supporters, Jim Spence and a ‘darling’ club of the Scottish media. Then you go further back and look at the likes of Jim McLean, Dave Bowman, John Clark, Maurice Malpas. All really unlikable individuals. If they are relegated I will be delighted.

I agree on this Always good for fans to get their passport out but I believe the league cup group stage and a few more victories will get us a better more confident start to next season, rather than a Europa conference tie where we would no doubt end up out after 1 or 2 games anyway 2017 an example after Robbo kept us up. Strong start to the season with 4 victories in cup games led us all the way to the final What a turnaround in the last 3 months Well done Stuart Kettlewell, King Kev and everyone else 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewarkfanclub Posted May 13, 2023 Report Share Posted May 13, 2023 Not a vintage performance today, especially first half where we seemed totally incapable of finding each other with a pass. But is was still a very solid defensive performance and I never felt at any point that St Johnstone had us under any pressure. Kelly barely made a save all game and big Butcher was just immense. Need to see KVVs disallowed goal again, looked pretty tight and they took an age again to confirm he was offside. We were a little bit better on the ball second half with improved performances from Spittal and Mandron in particular. Much like last week we had the chances to have finished the game off long before we did, so it was a bit of a relief when Mandron scored a well deserved second. Re who we want to see go up and down, I know a lot of us want to see the back of Killie and Livvy because of their plastic pitches, but was that really any better today? Bumpy, uneven, players slipping all over the place. Dont think Ive ever seen a decent game up there. Given Killie is 10 minutes from my house Id much rather see them stay up than St Johnstone!

weeyin Posted May 13, 2023 Report Share Posted May 13, 2023 Their pitch is terrible, but it's still better than plastic. I'd bet the players feel better after playing on it than after playing on plastic too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
