Alert Mongoose Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 Yes, it's a good win but I fucking despise Spandau Ballet so can we please stop signing players who have a (even tenuous) similarity to the world 'gold'. I'm tired of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArabianKnight Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 So some interesting points raised on twitter I've seen. I'm no way calling the league wrapped up now but I do think we get another 2 or 3 wins that's it. I think Raith will be utterly deflated after last night but Morton will be a tough tough game on Friday. In fact I think it's our biggest game of the season, we win and it's all but assured I reckon as the pressure on Raith the next day will be immense. Now Goodwin has been levelled a fair bit of criticism over the season but with the last few games he's changed things (although the injuries to Holt and Gallagher have forced his hand in this) I do wonder if he'll be reflecting on that and seek how much the reduction of passing between the defenders held us back for long periods. If we win another 3 games that puts us on a very respectable points tally for the season with a brilliant goal difference. If we go up first time are we gonna jettison Goodwin at the first instance or will we persevere? I'm totally on the fence about it, I think he's capable enough but needs to improve to cut it in the premier as a manager. Not sure if a bigger budget would be a help or hindrance to him. When we go up we'll likely need a decent goalie (although Walton might be persuaded to join perm I'm not sure he'll be the answer in the league above) and would a pairing of Graham and Gallagher cut it? So many players out of contract and lots to consider for the next season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raith can only get a maximum of 12 more points, and we’re already 4 ahead. In effect, 8 points from our 4 games should be enough with the disparity in goal difference. I’m certainly not counting any chickens yet, but I’m significantly more confident than I was before the game against Raith kicked off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, with the GD any combination of you winning points and/or Raith dropping points that totals 8 gives you the title. I’m also looking forward to the debate on Goodwin, it’s likely to get spicy. Now just lose Friday night and keep the league nice and tight, eh…you’d still be in charge of your own destiny and it would be good for attendance figures! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that we have Arbroath (a) and Raith (H) - two sides (presumably) with nothing to play for, which always gives me the fear. Going to ICT on the final day needing to avoid defeat to avoid them catching us isn't a prospect I'm relishing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zetterlund Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Still nowhere near time to get the cigars out for us. A point at Morton, which isn't a bad result by any stretch, along with a Raith win and we're back to a one-game swing. The top 2 have both shown multiple times that they're absolutely determined not to make it easy for themselves. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no doubt that if we go up, Goodwin will stay in charge - any sort of debate would be moot - they're not getting rid at that point. But taking confidence from him finally cottoning on to what game plan might suit the team after a year in charge, seems a tad optimistic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
