Coventry Saint Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 (edited) 1 minute ago, GAD said: Lafferty seems like a perfectly reasonable signing for a bottom 6 premiership team to me. He's only 33, had played at a decent level, and is proven in this league. The big issue will be how quickly they can get him fit and firing. Nah, he's only scored one goal since April Edited February 12, 2021 by Coventry Saint 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it helps I was just taking the piss out of Randomguy. I don't think he's a terrible signing for you, on the face of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Lafferty is a cheat, that's on record, but considering he only needs to get two or three key goals in the remaining 10 games or so and he'll have paid back what he cost. I think he's capable of that. We all know how tight things get in a relegation scrap, knocking in a header from a badly defended cross in the dying minutes can make or break your season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really is bottom of the barrel stuff. Reminds me of the season we sold Kenny McLean on the last day of the window and replaced him with free agent Alan Gow in February. Got relegated a few months later. Agree generally but I think we got Scott McDonald in the free agent market at this time of year and he was pivotal in keeping us up in the playoff year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YassinMoutaouakil Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 It's a weird one where I'd have been reasonably happy with both Wright and Lafferty at Motherwell but them at Killie just doesn't fill me with confidence at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Just fucking about and made this, wish I'd put them in positional order but *shrugs" its late and I cant be arsed. Used Transfermarkt game weeks for this, so its a bit off as they use the fixture list to define them, so postponed games etc., muck it up. But I needed defined gameweeks to make this and nothing else compares. Each club in the bottom 6 plotted by position, per gameweek... If Hamilton survive such a season, it will be amazing, while Countys decline is clear. Those two feel like favourites for the bottom places for a reason. Motherwell falling games behind perhaps made them look worse than they were? They don't look particularly bad here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelmen Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 If Rangers are dead then they can't be temporarily top of the league, Scottish football fans must act now and demand that the SFA removes them immediately. Good work in exposing this generic Livi fan. Don’t forget old rangers voted to allow new rangers directly into the spl. Then those pesky players refusing to tupe over to the new company/clubBut yeah keep it at demoted if that helps you sleep at night.Now demoted, is that not what hearts say happened to them??? Yeah cousins after all 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh I think there was exactly one point where we were actual relegation candidates and it's the 7 day period where Lasley was a genuine candidate for the job. Alexander will comfortably keep us up and I'm pretty sure Robinson would have too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamilton haven't actually been bottom that much of the season until recently, and when we beat Motherwell on Jan 2nd they dropped to 12th, whereas your graph has them out of even the playoff spot for months.

Ric Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Notable "journeys" are ours where you can see how we started off strong, fucked right up (helped by covid) and recovered, or County's anvil like plummeting throughout the season with a bit of bounce once they hit rock bottom. However the battle between Aberdeen and Hibs is probably the most "balletic".. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's done by the way the fixture list was ordered, rather than when the games were actually played, so postponements etc., take it out of sync with reality. It's impossible to make without having game weeks to go off, so had to use them. Motherwell were 2 games behind when they dropped to 11th the weekend you beat them, but beat Kilmarnock during the week which I'm sure was scheduled for last year, so those 3pts are added to their total hack when it was meant to be played. It's not ideal but there's no other way to do it due to clubs playing different amounts of games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
