Dutchy 1,200 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 We'll win it easily, probably with 100% record. We'll not only win the Ramsden Cup, but the League cup and the Scottish easy peasy, no problems at all. I'd also expect Ally to get Manager of the year and Daly to get PoY, both from journos and fellow pros. You just wait and see. And no, I'm not taking that medicine, that way or any other way. And don't think I'm wearing that jacket either. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
binsy08 362 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Anyone who thinks a side containing Foster, jig and Mohsni in defence will win championship is deluded..Unless massive changes occur we'll be scrapping for the play-off place..Couldn't argue with one word of your statement.

glasgow argyle 1,093 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Anyone who thinks a side containing Foster, jig and Mohsni in defence will win championship is deluded..Unless massive changes occur we'll be scrapping for the play-off place..i have said on several recent threads that we need at least 2 defenders this summer.also i believe it is important to have them in place this summer, to be ready for the next step the following season.i cannot understand why so many fellow bears, seem content for us to be in the premier league and settle for a place in the top 6.when we get back, i want us to be ready to mount a serious challenge for the title.of course i understandthe financial constraints, but if we can offload some deadwood this summer then surely we can bring in a couple of players on reasonable wages.i don,t want to get into the pro/anti Ally debate, but i suspect ANY manager would struggle to win the championship with the current squad.

Cos88 283 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 I have no doubt we'll win the Championship but it will be exactly the same as this year, just grinding out results with football that will make your eyes bleed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter huistra 1,740 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Bell - decent keeper of spl standard . Foster - decent spl standard .Mohsni - a bit raw debatable weather he is .Wallace - international standard . Aird - exciting prospect .Black - spl standard on his day . Macloed - exciting prospect . Law - spl standard . Templeton - almost international standard . Daly - championship standard .Shiels - spl standard . Can't see how that squad is not good enough to win the championship .

The Monk 3,207 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 We beat Dundee comfortably last season home and away. And there top of that League iirc, we'll adapt to better opposition and should still win it comfortably. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sasa_Papac_No1_Fan 605 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Hearts are a better team than us at the moment and with the ability to add some experience and i suspect Levein as manager theyll be favourites to win league..We played Raith( bottom half) a fortnight ago and we couldn't score a goal in 120 minutes..We struggled against ten man Falkirk earlier in season scraping through with a last minute goal..We have also beat them 3 times in 2 years under McCoist and with a shit team last year.

falwheel 222 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 I actually do not think that championship teams are that much better that the teams we have played this season. That said, really looking forward to next season already, The prize on offer getting back to premier league and hope we will soon be able to put our troubles behind us. Think our squad is/should be good enough to win it. Hope we do sign one or two new players. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnH 270 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 The squad is more than capable of winning the Championship at a canter. To do this though we need proper coaches at the club who can get the best out of the squad, and dare I say, even improve the players. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fantana 28,894 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 We are pish. simple as. hearts will probably now go on to strengthen over the summer getting in better than what we have in our squad. With little or no additions I'm predicting a serious struggle next season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NixonRFC 1,310 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 People seem to forget that we won the top tier with teams that had a similar make up to that.Disagree completely with that statement, similar in what way? Not in the way of ability mate, you're kidding yourself if you think this team is similar in terms of ability to those who have won past recent titles with usMcGregor or BellWhittaker/Broadfoot or FosterPapic or WallaceBougherra or MohsniWeir or McCullochFerguson/Davis or LawEdu/Thomson or Black/MacLeodWeiss or TempletonMendes/ParaltaJelavic/Miller/Boyd or Daly/ClarkNaismith/Novo/Lafferty or Sheils Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1690tamRFC 5,001 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 To be honest, even if we don't change anything from this season to next I would still imagine that we would win the championship easily enough, aye we are underperforming but we do have the quality within the squad to win the league, in my opinion.

ZZed 4,510 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 If we play the same tactics as this season other teams will soon work us out. We have the players to hit mid top league but we need to play a better system or we will struggle. If the rumours about JD are true get another striker in and play 2 up front.

Rickshaw77 287 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Don't think it's going to be pretty but we'll win the Championship next season by at least 10 points.3 maybe 4 players will come in over the summer and we'll move a few on, Players like Jig will probably be used sparingly next season and guys like Temps and Macleod should be fully fit come the new season.
