Fifespud Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Are Dundee in danger of going down? In a word, YES [emoji51][emoji51][emoji51]Just noticed, a Hamilton win and a Sainties defeat puts you lads 3rd bottom, lol. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You and Happy*** are posting tonight - just not on the Dundee threads, very strange. Curious as to how this post has been edited. even more curious to see its been edited by tynieness. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Pack Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Any of the bottom 6 could be going down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeTillEhDeh Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 3 is the magic number spud. You'd be ecstatic if you finished 3rd bottom. As would you. I said at the start of the season that I'd be be happy with 10th as McCann had a lot of Hartley's dead wood to get rid of. Even since then the priority is to for me was for us to avoid the dreaded automatic and relegation of spot as I feel that we (like most of the other bottom 6 teams) are more than capable of beating the Championship in teams - especially with the inbuilt advantage of the play-off game structure. Saints must surely be hoping to do at least better than 10th but if you are leaking goals and not scoring (as we have been doing) then confidence drops and it's hard to get back on the rails. If you get a couple of wins I think you'll be be safe - it's just where will you get them - I would have thought it the County and Accies games would be good opportunities. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got Accies to play twice, County to play twice, you lot to play twice, and Thistle to play. If we can win 3 of those, we'd stand a decent chance of avoiding 12th as that gives us 35 points. Problem is winning those games. I think us shipping goals will be easy to resolve once we get folk scoring again, as it is we're not scoring, defence get put under pressure, confidence is sapped and they make mistakes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Heliums Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 (edited) The performance of Williams today may end up being a more significant pointer to our final league position than the score.

A couple of wins would see them safe and they are too good a side not to manage that. The bottom five are all in the battle though. There are a two main things Saints need to resolve, in addition to getting some important players back fit, and both are linked; we need to stop this habit of conceding (cheap) early goals/get the first goal ourselves. We've only opened the scoring in 3 of our last 20 games against Premiership opposition. The lack of goals generally is tied into that as it's harder to score when the opposition have something to cling onto. We've picked up points in all 8 matches where we've scored first, showing how vital it is for us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, although I hope that Saints fans won't jump to conclusions if he puts in a below-par performance against the best team in the country (especially if it's another poor team performance in general). Next week's Ross County match may be a better indicator of what he could provide for us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
