Guest Flash Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Depends how marginal you think a 10 point difference over 27 games is. It equates to 13 points over the season. Pretty decent margin IMHO. Or, to put it another way, it is nearly 30% more points than we have just now. I don't think anybody would describe a 30% pay rise as marginal. Or another way of looking at it is that Livingston are 10 points behind us. Which would mean we have done marginally better than them so far this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty decent margin IMHO. An extra 3 wins and a draw up until now and 4 wins and a draw until the end of the season. I suppose that's a good bit better really.

Monkey Tennis Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Probably depends on how you look at it and where we end up. We are 1 point better off than Raith were at the same stage last season and I think their manager was sacked. Also depends on how much account is taken of the style of play, which has been pretty awful for the most part. And results in the cups have been poor. Think there are a lot of things that have to be considered but losing players in the summer is definitely one of them. That's a good summary of the situation. The loss of good players is certainly mitigating for Fowler. However, the spectacle this team provides and the performance in the Cups, certainly aren't. Obviously the season isn't yet done, but as things stand, Fowler hasn't done so well that we must strive to hang onto him. Similarly though, he's not done so badly that we simply must get rid. I suspect it comes down to whether we want yet another change, or to aim for a bit of continuity. If it was up to me, I think I'd be inclined to look elsewhere, but it's not clear cut. I suspect we'll stick with him and that's maybe not the worst idea in the world. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 (edited) Are the Under 20's not playing tonight? It's on Bet365 they are but Palmerston is in darkness.

It's not clear cut either way and I'm glad it's not me making the decision. Luckily we've got a wonderful board of directors who can do no wrong so I trust them to make the right call! This season was always going to be about rebuilding. I suppose it comes down to whether you think he's laid suitable enough foundations to improve upon or whether you think he's spent the entire time fighting fires. I have to say as time goes on I'm leaning towards the latter, but it could be through necessity rather than choice. Of course a new man will likely want to rip the whole lot down and start again, which would take us back to square one. As someone who thinks our position is more down to poor players rather than poor management of the players that might not necessarily be a bad thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rjc-1988 Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 If he was fit and not suspended the fact that our Manager thinks that Millar is not worth a place on the bench far less the starting line up is surprising o say the least. He is the one midielder whose Compass doesn't constantly point sideways. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is the one midielder whose Compass doesn't constantly point sideways. Why exactly is it a surprise? He can't pick players based on the potential they may or may not possess but based on their performances in training and during matches. A seat in the stand is more than he deserves based on this season. He was better last season when he was a fat waster. Now he's just a waster. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
