steven33jackie 1,920 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Highly unlikely from what we have seen lately. More chance of dropping more points before the break. Hate to say it we are just not there yet Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamess 3,422 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Can't be bothered reading every post, so maybe it's been said...………..but its all about stopping them getting 10. Anyone thinking we were going to rebuild yet again this season with modest funds and then win the league are deluded. I hope for a strong second place. Then build from there. Europe was a distraction from our main focus. When I was a lad I expected us to win the league every year, even in the Greig years. Some seem still to be thinking that way.

MasterD 7,435 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 It’s not going to happen this season unless the taigs have an absolute disaster. We need too many new players that we just aren’t going to get in a January window. We’ve been minging of late and it should be a reality check for people to see where we still are and how much is still needed for us to go the distance over a season.

simplythebest 11,453 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 We won't win it this year, what we need to see is if we finish a comfortable second and avoid a completley embarrassing gap to build on for next season Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not if he thinks guys like Coulibaly, Worrell, Ejaria and Flanagan are fit for purpose. Shudder to think who he'll sign in subsequent windows. sassaaaa and Valance1690 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Hurlock Loyal 12,133 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 No consistency and quality, no league title. In fact, we will probably be lucky to beat them at least once this season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluebell82 243 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 If we beat celtic once and finish a comfortable 2nd then it's a good season. Winning the league this season was always a bit optimistic. Time will tell if Gerrard gets the funds, and spends them wisely - 2/3m doesn't get you much these days. celtic will also be strengthening aswell and do have money to play with so always a difficult task to catch them.

Leaders win titles Steven Gerrard is a straight talking, no nonsense winner who live and breathes football. He is not here for the money he is here for the fight. He has taken us from a European laughing stock to a couple of unlucky breaks from qualification out of the group stages of the UEFA cup having played teams with 10 times our budget. Some inconsistency aside he has us back at the sharp end of the league table and has corrected our home form as well as taken us 11 games unbeaten in Europe. All in one transfer window. Imagine what he will do with 3 or 4 windows. I repeat talk of sacking him is madness You're actually dreaming. We're still second equal on points with Kilmarnock, we're still losing terrible goals from set plays ( Aberdeen and Motherwell), we've got 1 point from 4 games against celtic and Aberdeen, we couldn't make the league cup final, our football is awful to watch, our new signings have added little (apart from McGregor) tell me exactly what it is you think Gerrard is doing well?

gogzy 31,195 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 I don't think that us not winning the league would be a reason to call it a false dawn, or give up on Gerrard. I think it's a massive ask for any manager, no matter how good, to come in, build a tea almost from scratch, and go on to win the league that year. He needs this season and next season at least IMO. We have to stick with someone ffs. 35 Yard Dangerman, josmc and cascadeshrimp 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomatasauce 1,253 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Gerrard and him alone is at fault for team selection an his rotational pish I’ve had enough of, a blind man can see it’s doing us more harm than good. maybe in the epl where you have a super star in your team you’ll try and keep him fresh for big games, it disne apply here play the best 11 every week unless we have injuries, suspensions, potential suspension or dip in form against everybody. The standard of player we sign comes from a joint decision of him, mark allen and king if he backs them with the cash to sign them, not Gerrard alone can be accounted for this Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

josmc 525 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Spent the night fucking and blinding at the tv. I’m desperate to be optimistic but it’s being sucked out of me a bit at the moment. Anyone wanting Gerrard sacked though, are taking it a bit too far in my opinion. This was always going to be a very difficult job to take on. However, he had the balls to take it on and he should be given a fighting chance to take us forward. We can’t keep sacking managers and then trying to fund new players all the time. I am still hopeful that we can keep a challenge going (because I think the tarriers are a very average team) and if we can take the majority of our points between now and the 29th, I honestly believe we have a great chance of beating them on the day. So come take fuck Rangers and don’t drain the last bits of hope out of me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
