  1. Can I be greedy and choose option C? A good league season AND a cup win. We weren't far away this year. Circumstances conspired against us. Luck was the thing we ran out of......
  2. The suggestion is that VAR did do its job and King was sent off for throwing his arm out at an opponent, regardless of whether he made contact or not. I dont agree with that, but if thats the rule, then I guess we just need to accept that, much as we did with Oscars red card for a slip. We could, and probably will just stay quiet about the play acting as most clubs and managers will instinctively protect their own player, and thats fine. But if, as KMcAlpin suggests, you want to try and eradicate that sort of stuff from the game, someone needs to be brave and take a stand. But you do need to be really careful and do it in a way that doesnt through your own player under the bus.
  3. Previous managers were on 1 year rolling contracts. There has been no confirmation that Jens is the same. There was a suggestion that he had signed a 2 year deal, but no idea where that came from or how credible it is. Probably not something that can be confirmed one way or another.
  4. I dont think we need to make an example of Slattery by dropping him or singling him out. But Jens can say in an interview that he has spoken to him and told him he doesnt like it and told him not to do it again. He could even reference Elliot Watt earlier in the season when he went down under minimal contact from an alleged head butt. Challenging other managers to speak to their players in a similar manner would shift the focus and put the spotlight on it for other clubs to deal with. You wont eradicate it. But you can make it more difficult for players to get away with if you talk about it instead of just ignoring it or accepting its part of the game.
  5. You quoted me while talking about faux out rage. If you were just talking in general terms fair enough but why pick my comment?
  6. I mean, we probably wont win the league, but if we cant dream about it and enjoy the trip under these circumstances, when can we?
  7. Jens 100% thinks we can win the league. If he didnt he wouldnt have mentioned goal difference post match last night and referred to it as a good 4 points. He wont say so publicly, and will keep batting the pressure away no matter how much the media try and draw him/us into it. Legend.
  8. Its not faux outrage. I dont like to see our players try to con referees. Id rather win without all that shit. If you want to take a different position feel free, but dont try and call me out on it.
  9. I didnt think the first one was a definite red. He does catch him on the ankle once the ball is away. But by the same token Fadingers v Rangers wasnt a whole lot worse, so some consistency would be nice. Slatterys though is embarassing. He may well have got a finger in the face (its impossible to tell from the poor camera footage) but it certainly wasnt enough contact to justify the reaction. Glad Jens gave him a talking to at the end.
  10. Its great that we are getting the majority of players fit and up to speed, but its a little ironic that we do so just as our midweek fixtures disappear until the end of the season! Great to have a strong bench though and we might have to cope with a few suspensions if we do actually get ourselves in the mix! ๐Ÿ˜‰
  11. I know we arent losing every game until the end of season, but its not official until we have 1 more point.
  12. Need to back up tonights performance with a win and 3 points. Top 6 is all but guaranteed now due to our GD, but be good to make it official. Rangers play Celtic on the Sunday, so something has to give there. If we can keep winning the fixtures will ensure we close the gap above us.....
  13. Great perfomances all over the pitch. But its MaraDonnell! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜
  14. That was very pleasing tonight. Yet again, we did give up the early chance, but after that it was pretty much one way traffic. To play St Mirren off the park on their own pitch and to be 3 -0 up and coasting even before the red card was quite the response to Wednesday. Bit annoyed with Slattery. He takes a litlle bit of the shine off what was a totally dominant performance, as Im pretty sure we would still have scored more without the sending off. Overall though, it was a statement result and performance. We need to keep backing it up now. One game at a time. I believe ๐Ÿงกโค๏ธ๐Ÿงก
