Couldn't make the game last night, how did Hammy do after getting on the pitch? Fine considering he was up against one of the quickest wingers in the league and we were absolutely battered - I would like to see him start now with Stewart right midfield - in my opinion when that happens that is a solid team 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redscot Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Other results went our way after a bad night at the office. Onwards and upwards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think with ICT & Morton winning, results went our way, as both close the gap. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it is getting very tight in the league now, 5 points between 4th and bottom 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the results went as badly as they possibly could this weekend. The league has really tightened up now and we’re only 4 points off bottom. Would much rather a couple of teams were cut adrift at the bottom. We need to get any ideas of promotion or playoffs out of our heads and concentrate on survival. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you approach games differently if you are just concentrating on survival. Play for draws ? Makes no sense to me. You play every game with trying to and expecting to win other the United games and possibly Raith away as things stand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course we want to play every game to win, end up with a many points as possible and as high up the table as possible but wanting the teams around us to lose to the teams at the bottom just to keep us in contention is dangerous thinking imo. Doesn’t appear to be anyone as poor as Accies, Cove or us last season so it’s going to be very very tight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We weren’t at the races last night but I’m looking at the positives of 6 wins in 7 games against full time teams before yesterday. That kind of form takes you up the top end of tables 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRoundO Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 First quarter of the season done (albeit only played 7 of the teams). 12 points and fifth. Job done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokerson Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Strange for anyone to think morton and Inverness winning would indicate results going well for us. We need to stay as high above the bottom 2 as possible 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take 12 points every quarter, then we’ll be fine, or 10 wins between now and the end of the season, will probably be enough 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt any of the suggested changes on here (Norey for Hylton!!) would have magic’d up a 2-0. Well beat, move on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SotesBornalichtie Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Really need to put Friday night's game behind us and move on. We need to put in a good performance on Saturday and take something from the game. I'd like to think that we will take 3 points but Partick won't make it easy. Hopefully don't lose an early goal and have to play catch up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afc_36_0 Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Dick has to take a lot of the blame for friday night. 1st game of the season v united we went very bold with mcintosh, bird and hylton as our front 3 and it backfired massively. So instead of packing the midfield or even 5 at the back we go with turan bird and hylton with mckenna too? Incredibly naive against by far the best team in the league. Hopefully we can move on quickly and get back to business v thistle. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always remember Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Let’s keep behind the lichties, in all the years they have been in the championship this is the worst loss. let’s concentrate on the positives they have achieved on and off the pitch. I personally am not a Dick fan, but don’t forget where the club was when he took over. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
