Orange Persson 548 Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 If we can at least win our home games, then 3rd is possible. We lost to bottom team in league, yes, TBH though, there is little between all of the other teams, behind scum. Motherwell excepted maybe.No surprise for us to lose to anyone now. We have shown we are only Rangers in name. Get through it and roll on next season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drunk and disorderly. 14,674 Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 The only time coming third is deemed acceptable is when you are sharing a bed with the Minouge sisters. This season has turned out to be an utter clusterfuck. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reformation Bear 6,453 Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Just now, Bad Robot said: We desperately need an interim manager as not one player will ever respect Murty after the back flick / thing or whatever it was. We need a leader on the touchline to install some confidence in the team and to install some leaders on the pitch. I agree. The problem seems to be that Robertson, Dickson, King and the Board either see it very differently and are prepared to let Murty and Mr (or maybe Mrs) Invisible Assistant carry on for a while longer or they are not able to find a suitable person to take over as interim pending DOF and Head Coach appointments. It might have been better to have appointed Wallace as interim caretaker (I think he has his coaching certs) as he should know the first team squad a whole lot better than Murty and may have been able to lead it better than Murty has done. That's a punt I know and clutching at straws but if the Board can not or will not appoint a better qualified interim while still mucking about with a DOF and Hd Coach selection process then its the only other straw I can think of clutching that might help rescue things a bit.

jintybear 8,660 Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 It really is a sad day in our history when we have to rely on Hearts and St Johnstone to drop points so that we can finish THIRD Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kanjo 26,391 Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Grinds me knowing that for all our faults, we're 9 behind the sheep. We have a better team. Makes little difference between 2nd and 4th given what we set out for nor does it matter long term (they know it's just a matter of time before they are back fighting for 3rd)... but it is the principle. The board really have let us down the past few weeks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree m8, reluctantly. Wish I can share in this optimism, but we need a million chances to score a single goal and the team couldn't defend if their families' lives depended on it. This has been ongoing for ages now with no signs of abating, so colour me old and more than slightly disillusioned. Would love to see the team pull a barge load of magical rabbits oot their arses to suddenly fix all this, but imo we'll be damned lucky to finish third given what's been on show.

The Tavernator 279 Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 2nd is possible, Sheeperdeen aren't very good. If we get a half decent manager in soon we could start to win a few games. I'd say it's 50-50 that we'd finish 2nd. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No chance in hell are we catching them. We're in free fall, half the players will be pissed off at the way MW was treated (bearing in mind the Brentford connection with a lot of them) and have probably stopped trying. I just don't see us being consistent enough to make back the points, the gap is only going to widen before the season ends. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyc06 6,927 Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 I actually think the board would see 3rd place as an achievement & that they have hit their target for the season... European participation for next season! Shambles!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's pretty much the crux of it, the club might get a couple of home games for some extra cash but unless there's some major change in playing staff and management, we'll do nothing.

They'll give it "at least we're not in third place" And before you know it it'll be "at least the pedophiles haven't got 20 in a row" We can't wait till summer it'll be too late by then imo.

Guest Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 And while I try to never be negative on here, I'll bet the gap between 2nd and 3rd will be bigger than 3rd and 4th, 2nd is lost but folk shouldn't even assume well get 3rd Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
