We have had a wee bit of luck in the last two games. On another day Killie goal would have stood and that Livi boy slots away that easy chance and then both those games become very different. But after those scares we have gained total control in both and strolled it.

I fully expect the same on Wednesday, just not the slow start please!

Dundee have been probably the worst team I have seen at Fir Park this season. I know they have improved recently but so have we since the last time we played them. 

No manager in the country knows how to deal with our front three of Just, Tawanda and Said. They are running riot.

Its good for us to just keep flying under the radar right now.

Just keep winning one game at a time and see where it takes us.

It would be an absolute longshot, but I havent been to a game this season where I left thinking the opposition had been better than us, and that includes the semi final.

Correct, I hear so much pish about that semi final, the Robbo Masterclass, St Mirren playing us off the park. Its bollocks. The only people who beat us at the semi final was ourselves. St Mirren played as they always do nothing special. As bad as we were we just didn't turn up but we still had more of the game than them and created as many chances and fluffed them.

Even had Killie and Livi both scored I'd still have fancied us to beat them because we have better players and play a better game.

Agreed. Even moreso because their missed chances came so early in both games.

I don't really want to find out how we'll react to going behind I quite enjoy not conceding goals

The stat I saw posted at the weekend is that we have been behind in games for a total of 23 minutes this season.

We beat Livi from behind in our first visit there, but I agree it's much more entertaining to just not concede.

That doesn’t seem very long. Celtic rangers Falkirk Livi and Killie have all been ahead of us at various stages in a game.

It was 23 out of 1200+ minutes, about 13 games or so.  Still a good feat.

Hoping at Mirren win tonight. 

I’d happily take a draw for this tonight, and for hertz to draw their next two; that would leave it in our hands (we’d need to win every game til the end of the season mind)

I didn't say was accurate, I just said I read it on the internet!

It's nice to control your own fate, although winning every game is a pretty big ask.

Bring it on.

Totally agree Weeyin but something feels right this season; we’ll know more in the next three games. Three wins and we’re possibly ahead of Rangers and in the next round of the cup. Do we dream then??

I don't disagree. While I know logically we might to lose a game at some point from a poor performance, dodgy decision or bad luck, every game right now feels winnable.

The last time it felt like this was when we ran away with the First Division under Davie Hay. We lost the first game at Rugby Park then went on something like a 20 league game unbeaten streak (and only lost 4 all season).

The face he pulls when he talks about the attention JT received from around the world, and "also from the UK' tells you all you need to know about what the thinks of the UK attention. (Starts around the 3 minute mark)
