That's how you end up relying on folk like Considine. Legs have a habit of completely vanishing during a season, so I'd be very wary of offering Hoilett too much.

We beat ICT 6-2 last time tbf, although it was only really one sided for two separate 45 minutes.

This is on Facebook apparently. Levein now worse than MacLean in terms of points per game.

I've not celebrated a goal from a set play in over a year.

That's what he's been trying to do. With a squad of shite defenders who can't defend crosses, soft midfielders who can't track runners, and wide players who contribute nothing in attack.

Cove done that and he struggled. Injuries have done him I think, and he never understood the game well enough to adapt. He'll maybe think the clubs in such a precarious position he can't take risks, so the safest option is trusting Brown/Harris. I don't know what they'd say or whether he would use their opinion or not though.

Probably more a Stan Harris/Geoff Brown decision. Not sure he'll come into this situation and make such a big decision against their advice. He's out of contract and we've got 4 strikers already contracted next season (ignoring relegation release clauses), he'll be away IMO. O'Halloran was finished when he left us. Not sure why you signed him.

Tbf you were presuming a Levein who gave a f**k would appear, when what we got is one who got bored after he'd mucked about with some new signings for a bit.

MacLean was brutal and the poor start is still costing us, but at least he had the excuse of being massively inexperienced and having a poor start snowball into a disaster thanks to trying to build a squad.

I'll gladly accept relegation if it helps me escape your shit "patter".

Someone frantically explaining to our American owner that reaching the play offs is bad over here

Livingston, finally, relegated officially. Results today mean only Ross County or St Johnstone can finish 11th too, so it's a direct head to head. Countys home form under Cowie what's dragged them back, and Motherwell the next team to visit. St Johnstones away form what's kept them safe so long, and they visit already relegated Livingston. Massive game as it's St Johnstone v Ross County on the Wednesday night after.

Meh, relegation isn't the problem it couldve been since the new owners are coming in regardless. It'll probably rid us of this dogshit squad and half arsed manager (that counts for both Levein and Kirk, whichever one is actually manager) too, so it might end up being a net win. Think we now need 2 wins from 3, with one being against County, to avoid 11th. This team doesn't have that in them unless Livingston or Motherwell hand them a win.

The squads rotten, and the clubs been rotten for years. Cut the fucking core out and start again Mr Webb.

We now need to win 2 of the remaining 3, otherwise it's the play offs. The MacLean experiment always made a bottom two finish likely but being bailed out by such a shit Livingston side, and County going mental for about 2 months, means this is a disappointment. No hiding place now, no excuses.

And there's County winning.

Yeah there's shades of it. Looking forward to the Eric Nicolson article claiming this was good performance ruined by a referee getting it wrong.

It's not an exaggeration to say we couldve comfortably conceded 10+ goals over our previous 170 minutes of football.

Now 4-4-2 with Carey and left back and May on the left of midfield. We're losing this by more than one.

4-4-2 with Carey at LB, and a midfield of 4 central players. Callum Davidson panic era classic.

Matt Smith at RWB v Holiett then presumably Duk. Sounds a great plan.

Genuinely pathetic how bad we are at defending set plays. Aberdeen twice had free headers within 12 yards.

Smith, Kucheriavyi and Crawford...

Tbf that's not been a realistic risk for a while now, really. I still think this is a game we need to win to prevent it being must win at home to County. A recently relegated Livingston away doesn't sound like a good one to me.
