We take a different view of the other teams in the league, all of which with the possible exception of Brechin can take points from any other team, including Saints IMHO. We do have to keep stepping up to the plate, game after game until the arithmetic declares the winner. But yes - we can do it. Yet, only last week, you were showing concern over Brechin, failing to see they are the whipping boys and were seen as easy meat? The other teams can take points from any other team..............another cliche, forgetting we have hardly dropped points to any other teams. The league consists of us................then Livingston, with a recent turn of form, then.......................2 teams who are of no concern................the rest, making up the numbers. It's only to be hoped the manager and players have more faith than you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only to be hoped the manager and players have more faith than you. No clichés. I stand by what I said about Brechin v Saints. It wasn't easy by all accounts. Also clear that I think we will win the Championship but I don't think we are going to do anything than have to continue to fight for it all the way. We are at the top off the league because our form has been good, not because of luck but I wouldnt say no to some of thaat. Giving credit to other teams abilities,where due, seems reasonable to me and I think gives more credit to our Manager and the players than suggesting others are poor IMHO Edited February 27, 2018 by St.Ricky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only Brechin, QoS and ICT have failed to take points from us. Or conversely every team in the league has dropped points to us. Morton are the only team we have yet to beat in the league or who have accumulated more points from us than we have from them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye yer right enough, but to show any balance you have to look, and I know this will trouble you, at how many points other teams have dropped. It's only relevant that we have dropped few points compared to the other teams. I'm ashamed, taking you off ignore, pop, on ye go. Cannie wait for another of your "oh, look at me then" posts.

faraway saint Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 Seemingly Dundee United put out an emergency call to all fans to turn up with shovels.....................and as much snow as they could carry. A postponement is better than another defeat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardBuddie Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 Is there any set rule with regards to how long before a match starts when they call it off? Would hate to be on the road up there on Friday for it to be canned 1 hour prior to kick off, will BT sport have an input to any decision or will it be down to the Dundee Polis?

Between the covering of snow and the temperature, -3 at the minute, going to take something special to get this game to go ahead TBH. Aye, yer right, more snow forecast for today, heavy, light snow tomorrow and heavy snow Friday.

Some perspective needed when looking at our own impressive form.Sent from my Moto G (4) using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soctty Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 Temperatures forecast to rise above freezing on Friday, so perhaps still a chance that the game will go ahead despite more predominantly light snow that day. Forecast will change constantly so just need to keep an eye on it.Sent from my Moto G (4) using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TediousTom Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 I will offer my prediction.... More chance of an 8 year old boy not getting eyed up at the Vatican than this game going ahead. The inevitable call off gives oor Jack and Jimmy the chance to rest our wonderful team (give Stephen McGinn a few days off to rest his weary legs). It also leaves Dundee Utd with one hell of a busy schedule, a punishing schedule that will see them drop away into oblivion. The call off may suit us......a weeks rest and whatever happens elsewhere WE will have a game in hand over our nearest rivals. Remember fellow supporters of Paisley's finest sporting establishment in history.....we WILL win this league, We WILL win it indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
