TopCat Posted February 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2020 First national quarter final since 2013 👏 Highest league position at this stage in a season since 2014 👏 First double figure return from a striker in a top flight season since 2014 (and it’s only February) 👏 What a job Jim and Lee have done so far.

TopCat Posted August 15, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 Six points and two clean sheets from our first three games. What a start! Two of those games against two of last seasons top five aswell. What a job Jim has done. That’s us won three of our last four games one nil, you don’t do that at this level unless you’re a seriously well organised and well coached team. Question for the stattos... when did we last have six or more points after three games of a top flight campaign? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We shit-fested our way to 2 wins in about 5 months before turning it around right at the death. 5-1 defeats to Celtic and Hibs were particularly memorable as well as that gut churning 1-0 home defeat to Dunfermline with a few games to go. Mind you, we had the 1-0 Tynecastle win, the 2-0 win away at Falkirk and then the Motherwell win which will never be forgotten. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeping us up in 2004? Our first cup final in 33 years? Gus turned us from a club who spent most of its time in the second tier - one top flight season in the 15 years prior to us winning the league in 2006 - to a club who now spends most of its time in the top flight. Just three second tier campaigns in the last 14 years.What an improvement. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My opinion is staying up in 2006/07 in a division where we clearly had the smallest budget (remember Carl Finnegan?) and the dogfight against Dunfermline who essentially bankrupted themselves in an attempt to stay up (remember Stephen Kenny & Adam Hammill?) as GMs greatest task. PS - Your memory of 2003/04 is unreliable we were in 7th position - 9 pts ahead of Ayr when GM was appointed we were never in any danger of relegation. Coughlin was just keeping the seat warm for GM after the latter was brought to the club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Newcastle reserve forward that Falkirk snatched under our noses at the end of the Jan 2007 transfer window, he went on to have an underwhelming career - my point is that we were the financial minnows of the division that season and staying up was more impressive than promotion the season before.
