Can’t possibly see it backfiring… Still only 10 points between third and twelfth. Any team suffering a sluggish restart after the world cup and they could find themselves deep in the mire. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_K_97 Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 I do think while we've improved in the last month or so, we'll still improve in January with the new backroom staff structure in place and hopefully some of Tommy Wright's dross leaving for pastures new to allow new faces to come in. I do think we'll be bottom six this season due to our poor start which wasn't helped by a lack of a settled formation and injuries, but the teams we're up against in the next while are potentially beatable. Who knows what'll happen though, I'll have a better idea come Saturday at 5. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if this is a wind up but I’m in the early stages of the relegation fear - poor form, injuries, inexperienced manager and backroom staff- could end badly. that, or we’ll win a few and be in and around the top 6 mix.

Andy_K_97 Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 It's still just a bit too early for me to see who's really in the mixture bar the bottom couple of sides. For me, there's no question that United and County are down there, and we're not out of it quite yet although if our form continues at the rate it does we'll propel ourselves away from it gradually. It remains to be seen how we'll cope without Lafferty until our semi-final in January, but I think that the break coming in November will be a very welcome one for the teams in the bottom half to allow them to take stock and see exactly what they need in January. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durnford Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 If we're having problems spare a though for the pundits at the BEEB. a few weeks back Aberdeen were bobbling around in the bottom half; now they're being lauded as the third force in Scottish football, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PauloPerth Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 12 hours ago, ATLIS said: We've been in far worse positions, Holt's season where he resigned and even last season threatened a lot more than what we've got now. Overall this squad is a lot stronger than any we've had in the Premiership. Still a long way to go though, January could come and Nouble/Fitzwater/Anderson could go and we're sat worrying a bit. Last season Martindale came out with the 'this squad won't get relegated comment' which raised a few eyebrows in here but he was spot on. If we lose Martindale then we're fucked Yeh I just feel things often change dramatically outwith the top two. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATLIS Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Haven't actually thought about this, but if Dundee Utd go down could they be in big financial trouble? They've ran at a loss for a few seasons have they not, and surely dropping down would be a hard one to take 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sergie's no1 fan Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Not counting us out of anything yet until we get to the latter 30s points mark. The worst team I have seen this season so far is probably Motherwell, ironically, as they are the only team to beat us in Paisley. Understandable though as they just sacked Alexander and were in a bit of a state. County weren't much better. United pretty were hopeless on saturday. Killie were better than I thought they would be but missed some easy chances. Perth Saints pumped us comfortably. As long as we aren't involved in any of that relegation battle nonsense this season I'll be happy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wrong Car Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 I wouldn't say Livi are out of the equation yet, however I can see why some fans think we are We've had a better start than previous seasons despite missing Fitzwater, Omeonga and Anderson in the team and, apart from the Aberdeen game, we've been competitive in every game To be honest, the World cup is probably going to have a massive impact. It's essentially a pre-season for any new managers, or a chance to reset for any teams out of form. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troy.1995 Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Apparently the Jambos have come into some money and Nielson has said their going to strengthen. Really hope he doesn't raid Almondvale.Could have repercussions on our expectations. . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
