Is this contingent on the season being called two months early due to another global pandemic, literally hours before we were due to play the team immediately below us?
When Lafferty is in the Scottish top flight he scores goals (mainly at Fir Park). That's basically the end of discussion for me, if he's affordable and keen it's a no brainer to get him in.
We already have a young sellable asset upfront as well in Shields, it's not like we'd be filling every position with 34 year olds on one term deals.
Literal guesswork but I'd be surprised if it's not something like
1. Celtic
2. Rangers
3. Aberdeen
4. Hibs
5. Dundee United
6. Killie
7. St Johnstone
8. Motherwell
9. Ross County
10. St Mirren
11. Livingston
12. Hamilton
On our end maybe- even then probably only then folk of a certain generation- I don't think Hearts fans give a fuck about us particularly. It's nice to feel a bit of requited hatred at Accies.
Nah I agree with you. I know it's not a "real derby" etc but folk are lying to themselves if they don't feel a bit more needle and sense of occasion at New Douglas Park than they do away to Killie or Ross County.
St Johnstone have just won two major trophies seven years apart while maintaining most of the core of the squad throughout and a good few players playing in both finals. I don't think football nowadays is necessarily as short termist as people are making out.
Yeah I understand folk not wanting to get ahead of themselves but I'm amazed there's debate over the job he's done so far. Both results and performance wise he's massively exceeded reasonable expectations for me. He's probably got a few genuine reasons to be aggrieved about decisions against us or other weird bits of misfortune otherwise we could potentially have been preparing for a shootout for Top Six in a couple of weeks.
