lubo_blaha Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Celtic: Should win it comfortably with Rodgers in charge Aberdeen: Our new options in attack should make up for out defence Rangers: Have spent big on a few big names, momentum will carry from last season Hearts: Not too convinced by their signings but will compete for 2nd St Johnstone: No major changes to a decent squad, same again for them Dundee: Couple of good signings from ICT, need to improve their defence though Motherwell: They'll miss Pearson but will still be challenging for top 6 Inverness CT: Think they'll do ok for some reason, King and McNaughton are good signings Ross County: They'll miss Davies and Irvine massively and will struggle if they're not replaced Partick Thistle: A few decent signings and they kept hold of Lawless and Bannagin should be alright Kilmarnock: Clark did improve things at the tail end of last season, will need the new signings to gel quickly though Hamilton: Surely their time is up after losing McGovern and Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Warren, Meekings, Raven, Draper and Tansey, we've still got the nucleus of the team that finished third two seasons ago and won the Scottish Cup, and which finished comfortably in seventh last season despite losing two of our best players in Shinnie and Watkins, having horrendous injury problems and a manager playing some of the most negative football we've ever witnessed. Since then, the only first team regular we've lost is Miles Storey (leaving aside Christie, who we only had for the first 3-4 months of last season before he got injured), and tbh, Storey blew pretty hot and cold over the course of the season. The league is probably slightly stronger this season, but I still reckon that our squad should be strong enough to see a finish in the top half of the bottom six as the minimum expectation. Obviously I don't watch Inverness week in, week out but from what I hear they have been horrendous at home for a while but you'll know better than me.

I think horrendous is a bit harsh. I mean, if you like never ending passing across the back four, then back to the goalkeeper, then an aimless hoof up the park, average of two shots on target at home, few goals and so on then you're quids in. Thankfully Hughes is now gone so hopefully we will see some more exciting games under Foran. I think we'll struggle at times but I'm hopeful that we will at least have some more to get excited about this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamilton Probably total shite tbh, optimistic saying we'll finish ahead of the two highland teams given our overall record against them over the past 8 years or so. St. Johnstone have got top six running through their veins so can only see that for them. Think Motherwell will just edge us again this year, Cannae stand McGhee but think his experience will get them 6th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 I've grown very confident since we're currently dicking Championship sides at half pace, never really works out that way though. One positive is that if we can manage to beat Brechin and Stirling, then we'll have all sorts of momentum going into the opening phase of the season.

We played well enough for sure but Falkirk are absolutely hingin'. I'd expect them to be nearer the bottom of their league this coming season.
