Fuctifano Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 We have 31 points after 24 games. Last season it took us 29 games to reach that. Season before it took us 34. Progress. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 We have 31 points after 24 games. Last season it took us 29 games to reach that. Season before it took us 34. Progress. Nice FACT m8 We maybe more pragmatic but that is gaining us more points. A no-brainer really. You just wonder what will bring the stay away fans back? Then again our home league attendances have been shite for years so apart from necromancing the lost hordes from the 50s and 60s we're doing okay. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamJags Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Hearts game rescheduled for 5th March, Aberdeen on the 8th. Sensible dates for the two games. Pain in the arse on a personal level as now I can't make the Hearts or the previously rearranged Dundee Utd games when I could the original fixtures. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuctifano Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 So the run up to the split barring further postponements is now Motherwell A St J A Hearts A Aberdeen H Celtic H Hamilton A Killie H United H County A Plus we're due 3 homes after the split. Obviously the top 3 in a row isn't great but should be 7 of the last 11 at home. I couldn't make Hearts away on the original date but now I can, guess they've got to allow some time for folk who now can't to return tickets. Is the Aberdeen game still on TV or is that a champions league night? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walter Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 We should name a stand after Doolan. How about a banner at the former South terracing proclaiming "The Kris Doolan scaffoldy- bing thing". Quite a tribute I reckon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pie Of The Month Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 (edited) So the run up to the split barring further postponements is now Motherwell A St J A Hearts A Aberdeen H Celtic H Hamilton A Killie H United H County A Plus we're due 3 homes after the split. Obviously the top 3 in a row isn't great but should be 7 of the last 11 at home.

Is the Aberdeen game still on TV or is that a champions league night? Other than switching the Hearts and Aberdeen games around (which SLJ said would be difficult due to rescheduling postponed fixtures rules) that's about as good as we could've hoped for. Gets the fixtures against the top 3 out the way fairly early and gives us a favourable run of games up to the split. If we're bottom 6 then it also means 8 of our last 9 games against bottom 6 sides. Looking the teams in 6th at the split over the last decade the average number of points after 33 games is 45pts so we're looking at needing another 14pts from those 9 games to be in with a shout. Although one of our players will mention it in the media soon and jinx it anyway. Edited February 24, 2016 by Pie Of The Month 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forameus Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 CL night. Surprised at that, but then I suppose it was supposed to be on BT wasn't it? They're hardly going to be raging they can't show us when they have Champions League on. Nae class. After Motherwell and Saints, that's three games we're unlikely to get much from. After that though, four very winnable fixtures. Then we'll have five tough fixtures, cos we'll be pure top 6. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMMjag Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Not sure why we should be shitting it from any of the 'top 3', even if we weren't in great form. Maximum points. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rednyella Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 We've a decent squad that is deeper than usual at this point going into last half of season so If everyone is fit and raring to go what is everyone's opinion on the best XI? What formation would you play and why? What would your subs bench be? Once I've seen your teams I'll throw mine out. Really interested to hear everyone's opinions!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P45 Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 We've got some #dece options from the bench just now which should hopefully see us finish strongly. For me- Cerny Dumbuya Frans Seabourne Booth Osman Bannigan Lawless Elliott Nesbitt Doolan But I wouldn't have a problem with Pogba starting games to rummel them up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cerny Dumbuya Frans Seaborne Booth Osman Bannigan Lawless Nesbitt Elliott Doolan Subs: Gallagher/Scully, Lindsay, Millar, Fraser, Welsh/Edwards, Amoo, Pogba Gives you a strong XI with an attack-minded midfield, options if any part of your team bar Booth is having a shiter of a day and even then the freedom to slot Elliott back at LWB in an emergency. Has Welsh and Edwards rotating in and out the match-day squad and even if you get injuries kicking about there's German, and even Chester Studzinski to shake things up a bit.

jagfox Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 (edited) Welsh + 10 other guys I agree with the other two teams posted so far. Edited February 25, 2016 by jagfox99 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pie Of The Month Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Cerny Dumbaya Lindsay Seaborne Booth Osman Bannigan Amoo Nesbitt Lawless Doolan I'd put Lindsay in ahead of Frans. Both are prone to being far too tight on their man and get turned easily but Lindsay is improving and is still only 20. I'd also make space in the team for Amoo as otherwise you're relying on Doolan on his own for goals based on the poor return from the rest of the midfield this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamJags Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Strongest X1 for me would be: Cerny Dumbuya Frans Seaborne Booth Osman Bannigan Elliott Nesbitt/Fraser Lawless Doolan Only reason I put Nesbitt/Fraser is because I'm not getting carried away based on one game. If Nesbitt plays as well as he did on Tuesday consistently, then I'd have him over Fraser. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 I Muzzy as much as the next Jag but Gaz Miller has been decent since he came back in and the formation against the Saintees on Tuesday gave us more attacking impetus than recent weeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thistle_do_nicely Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Stupid Sexy Cerny GK Dumbuya RB Freddie Frans CB "U da man" Dan Seabourne CB Callum Booth LB Osman BEASTING ALL THOSE POOR LITTLE WHITE BOYS MIDFIELD MACHINE Bannigan CM Lawless CUT INSIDE WIDE MIDFIELD GUY Elliot RUN FAST AND HARD WIDE MIDFIELD GUY Gary fraser RANDOM BRUTAL ASSAULTS ON FIFERS MIDFIELD GUY DOOLAN Best first eleven imo. Pogba has his place if we're up against a side missing a first choice cb and amoo has shown enough to get at least half an hour on as a sub most games, but barring injuries/fatigue/suspension id go with that. Give nesbitt some more time to see if he should be in place of fraser after a dece showing against st johnstone. Elliot showed enough against saints that id keep in the first team while hes still hungry to prove hes fully recovered from injury. As for welsh, let him join someone like livi or morton on a free. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cilitbang Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 If Nesbitt keeps up his form, I'd like to see us extend the loan to 1.5 years 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
