Dunfermline and Dundee comfortably in playoffs. Morton, ICT, Ayr and Raith 4th-7th any order Alloa, Arbroath and Queens bottom 3. 1. Hearts. 2. Dunfermline 3. Dundee 4. Ayr 5. Morton 6. ICT 7. Arbroath 8. Raith 9. QOTS 10. Alloa. 4th-7th hardest part to judge, can see those teams being very similar. Think Ayr have a slight stronger 11 than us so giving them the edge. Don't think there will be much between those 4, possibly Raith as well. 4th is definitely up for grabs for quite a few teams. For us, we have enough (hunners infact) attacking threat to compete in this division but lack a natural goalscorer so will need someone to step up and score 10-15 goals. Most of the midfield has been retained from last season so solid enough in there. Its the defence and keeper positions which is causing me most concern, need to hope the recent defensive signings show up well. If they do, 4th is possible, if we leak goals like we did last season, it's bottom 3-4. Just looking forward to watching us again, even if Alloa skud us on the first day!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Holding off on making a prediction until I see what remaining signings we make. Expecting at least one striker and another midfielder.I think at the minute QOTS and Morton are looking the weakest. Morton have loads of players going forward but not much actual quality. Alloa will be nearer the bottom again but they’ve got a settled squad and should just survive. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you continue to call us QOTS instead of QoS, I think I might be forced to hunt you down and give you a right good telling off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know what's more remarkable about that... a. that you think we'll finish above ICT; or b. that we'll finish above ICT and still not be in the play-offs... I think we'll finish 6th at best (and even that seems highly optimistic at this stage), more likely 7th or 8th. Top four most likely Hearts, Dundee, ICT, Dunfermline, with Ayr the wildcard. Having said that, I wouldn't place much value on any kind of predictions this year; there's that wee sense that anything could happen... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably question marks over most this year, but would they act? Given the shortened season and the financial implications/questions, will any team make a change? A catastrophic start to the season could easily be insurmountable this year, and taking the financial hit of dumping and replacing a manager might not be prudent. How quickly would a team be certain they needed to make a change, five games...nine games? Would that allow time to fix the problem, given the winter window will be through February, possibly, but who will be ready to spend money? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpInTheAyr Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Likewise massive question marks over Kerr, and McPake. Both those managers finished above you last season, so not quite as massive. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rb123! Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 For us the next week is huge for Kerr to get a decent striker in which will determine how high we can finish, we're just learning that we seem to have lost our main striker Moore to a bad injury so biggest concern for me is where our goals will come from. If we get a decent striker in i think we can finsih top 4 quite comfortably but could be squeaky bum time for top 4 if we struggle to get a decent striker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 We'll be 3rd at worst. I can't see Dundee, Dunfermline and Ayr all finishing above us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both of them took charge of teams in better shape, Kerrs got a very similar record to Crawford despite managing a better set of players last year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
