dregs 83 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Another step closer to retaining the diddy cup. Well done. U guys ever won it? Or anything in fact? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumigoo Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Well another week and another majestic performance for those of you who love football played at a snails pace with no movement off the ball. Nobody apart from N'Koyi came out the game with any credit apart from maybe McMullan but even then it was a case of him being slightly less shit than everyone else. Willo Flood turned in a performance so bad that I've now fallen out of love with football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flood has become a truely terrible player, how McKinnon cannot see this defies logic. I'm beginning to think N'Koyi can make a contribution this season, impressed by his play and his attitude.

Don't get me wrong I thought McMullan was well below his normal level but he was one of only two players (N'Koyi the other) willing to at least move forward with the ball and play the game with some kind of tempo.

Maybe so but the amount of slack passes from him was criminal. I won't judge Piggott too harshly either, he was totally starved of service and we didn't seem to be playing him as a target man in any conventional sense. Sad to say I thought the young players were terrible; I'm not looking for world class performances but this was at the other end of the scale.

Obviously I'm not asking for a judgement after a single game butis he a target man type we need or similar profile to what we already have in N'goyi? I know he's signed as a development squad player.

I know he's signed as a development squad player. He is much taller and broader than any of the other youngsters we have. For some reason both the goalie and the defenders seemed to aim all of their long balls at N'Koyi yesterday so it is hard to judge how good he is in the air (and we crossed the ball about twice yesterday). He didn't really do very much with the ball so it is difficult to say if he is any good or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stumigoo Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 My 'International Weekend' boredom has led me to look at the last few Championship seasons. Obviously for a few years it was heavily influenced by the presence of Rangers, Hearts and Hibs but it has been the case that 72/73 points should see you win the title. That means picking up an average of 18 points per quarter (out of a maximum of 27). If we can, realistically, get 6 wins and a draw for every 9 games it should just about see us or anyone else win the league. Sounds pretty straight forward.....

I can't help feeling more points than that will be needed this season. I can even see 80 points being needed, given the form of St Mirren and Dunfermline.

It could also end up being that less points win it, I think this title race will see everyone take a few points off each other. You might end up with three or four teams all on the 60-70 points mark.
