Obviously I’ll still be apoplectic on Saturday when st Johnstone’s reserves pump us, but the pros out weigh the cons for me. Yeah there’s less media attention in the championship and the club will lose a bit of money, but the chance to hopefully win more games, play better football, get better away days and hopefully develop some decent youngsters again will be nice. For those of us who have watched us for decades in the lower leagues-42 years myself-I have no wish to ever return there as that is one of the reasons why our support is poor. Staying in the top league is the only way to try and grow a support.Plenty of us never fought to bring the club back to the town to just give it up so easily and accept never being a top flight club. Motherwell used to target Hamilton schools when were in the lower Leagues as Lanarkshire's only Premiership team.Meekly accepting this is not on my or plenty others radar. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im_Rodger Posted May 14, 2019 Author Share Posted May 14, 2019 Really angry of the reality that we could be participating in the play offs. Players need to rectify this on Saturday. I do believe we could dispatch Inverness Caledonian Thistle with ease. Dundee United will be as close as last time 50/50 for that one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty Tunbridge Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 We've only scored in five away games this season. That is pathetic. Motherwell, St Mirren, Aberdeen, Dundee? Where was the other? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skondras Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 I want to stay in the top league. The only problem is we will never grow our fanbase up here as YOH is suggesting. Especially with the stats Accies1874 just highlighted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fell away a bit recently but still really good. Should be doing everything we possibly can to keep him on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estragon Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Left it late, but on we go to part VI eh? Despite the fact there were two absolute shiters in the division this season, six years (plus maybe?) in the top flight is a great achievement - hope you all enjoy yourselves tonight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
