I just asked my brother the same question and he said managers are very reluctant to drop keepers.

Is your brother part of the club or something? Just wondering if there's some reason he doesn't post on here himself. (Perhaps he does, I'd be none the wiser :lol:)

Yeah I think we are now safe.

i was concerned today as I just didnt see us having the necessary fight to beat st Johnstone. I failed to take into account how sh1te st Johnstone are.

i think we have enough in us to pick up 1 more point in the remaining games and I think County’s result today was a shocker for them, so I see them staying in the play off position. I’d love to see Killie in that position but due to them having another home game at that abomination of a park I think they’ll claw the points required there.

Agree @mio it's looking promising for us. 

As poor as we are there's 5 other clubs who are equally poor or worse.   It's conceivable that we'll all pick up points against each other. 

Very glad not to be dragged into the mire.

And you knew that when we conceded to bring the scoreline back to 3-2 with 25 minutes to go did you?

Hey, it wasn't me who made a definitive statement about us not winning the game.

But it’s easy to say “much ado about hee haw” once the games finished and the result is known….isn’t it? :rolleyes:

Tell you one thing I would do is get right on the blower when St J go down and find out about Mackenzie Kirk a very good player in the making pretty impressed by him.

That’s a decent shout but other clubs will probably be trailing him too. Still if you don’t ask….

The way you definitively said we weren't winning the game, you'd think you knew the result already. 

I know your negative schtick is "your thing" on here, but you have to then take the lumps when you make an arse of it.

Football is incredible. We are down 1-0 and Dundee and Killie score simultaneously. My 'we are safe' chat looks in real jeopardy and suddenly we score two goals within a few minutes.

I think it is now safe to say....

We are safe!!!

Was never in doubt ( takes a massive sigh of relief). 

Wimmer can start planning for next season. Hopefully he had a cohesive plan because we do not seem to have had one of those for years.

I was wrong about that, I accept that.
 

Obviously I didn’t have a crystal ball when I made that statement, I based it on our form and results this season. One win since the beginning of March and more or less zero shots on target in the last three games.

Once we retreated into our shells in the second half and conceded to bring it to 3-2 with over 20 minutes to go then was it really unreasonable or unrealistic to think we’d throw the win away? 
 

Finally….my ‘negative schitck’ being ‘my thing’….I’m saying nothing.

 

But I’m still waiting on your evidence of Hearts fans posting stuff to the effect of “don’t worry Rangers, we’ve got your back tomorrow” that you claimed that you’d seen on Twitter/X in March 2024.

Any luck with that or shall we just file it under 100 odd things that never happened? 
 

🤷‍♂️

Evening folks. Yes usual rollercoaster but hey its 3pts and we are now 7th. Would take ridiculous run of results to see us in play off place.

Slattery,  Johnny k , watt very good. Wilson must be honking If he can't get game ahead of Thompson.   Huge rebuild in summer but let's enjoy the victory.  Would have been scary If we had lost....COYW

Think he was pretty prolific in the Lowland League with Hearts and presumably they had doubts he could make the step up when they let him go last year.

Definitely looked impressive today but aye, he would probably have better options. I would imagine he is under contract for at least one more year so may be beyond our means even if we do receive a big transfer fee this summer.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained through.

Thought we were poor the first 20mins or so and our only tactic appeared to be long ball to beat the trap. Stepped it up however & played decent stuff in spells. If we had a bit more firepower we could have taken a stack off them.

Made it hard in the end, but 3points is what matters. Thought Sparrow had a really good game & that was probably fat tonys best match since he came back.

Mon the well!

I would like to add Tom Sparrow to that list he was fantastic never stops running won't give up no matter what been really impressed by him this season he has proved me so wrong and I am so happy that he has.

Hearts sacked Critchley now in other news , they are very very poor

With only 4 games to go too! When Kettlewell left some fans were saying it was too late in the season to change managers!
