shull Posted August 26, 2017 Report Share Posted August 26, 2017 Got a feeling it is going to be neck and neck with the Pars for the Championship. And I believe we will triumph over them again. Enjoy the ride Dundee united are shite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraway saint Posted August 27, 2017 Report Share Posted August 27, 2017 Very early days but, even taking into account the Morton game, things are looking very promising. We play Dunfermline and QOS back to back mid/late September and while each game is only worth the same 3 points it would be points from possibly our main rivals, like yesterday.

djchapsticks Posted August 27, 2017 Report Share Posted August 27, 2017 I said at the start of the season and again after the Morton defeat that if we could tuck ourselves in behind the leaders at the end of the first quarter, that'd be a good place to be with fitness returns coming up. I suggested 15 points from our first 9 would be a very good return. Clearly with 4 games gone and three of our perceived top 4 rivals played, it should be time to revise that target. The ICT and Dunfermline games are big ones. 4 points from those two and we're not playoff contenders, we're title contenders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr rotund Posted August 27, 2017 Report Share Posted August 27, 2017 We can't count out Dundee Utd because of one game, remember we lost heavily to Morton and then we beat Livvy and DU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would add the QOS game to the"big ones" in case you've not checked the current league positions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every game is a big one we can't dismiss any team in the league, if we do that we'll suffer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would argue there are games that are bigger/more important than others. It's stating the bleedin obvious we can't "dismiss" teams but there are teams (Brechin for starters) that should be seen as an easier 3 points than the teams around us at the top.

Agreed but then I'd argue that we should be treating all home games as must win given how good we've been at home recently. QotS have a history of starting well and falling off the pace, though. Think Dunfermline are a team with staying power this season and Caley are a team that we have a patchy history with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isle Of Bute Saint Posted August 27, 2017 Report Share Posted August 27, 2017 We don't need to worry about other teams as long as we do what we are good at. Yesterday was a real confidence booster which is great to take into the ICT game beat them and Dunfemline you will be looking at a team who can win the championship. The Morton game was a blip of circumstances player sent off , McKenzie carrying an injury Ek out injured we also have two quality players to come back. Our last nine games have produced 29 goals you have to go back to the good old days find these kinds of stats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warwick Hunt Posted August 27, 2017 Report Share Posted August 27, 2017 When we hit top spot I'd like to see the return of "you're no, you're no, we're top of the league and you're no!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
