    The Split

    County away to Livi and home to Hibs and Motherwell. Could all be decided before we meet.

    Wouldn't it be fun if the title was to be decided at Parkhead after all the attempts to avoid it.

    Not fair on County giving them a midweek game but I suppose it's closest apart from maybe Aberdeen,.
  4. Dens playable so no cash boost for Saints. I am sure Saints had to work on contingency plans if game did get played here so surely some kind of compensation from SPFL.

    This is ridiculous. We know the top and bottom 6. It seems to be to avoid an old firm fixture being a decider. Simple , make the OF game the second game as everyone knows what will happen .
  6. I am sure Levein has said on tv and sacked in the morning that as you get older you dont have the energy. Assume he was talking about himself. Certainly doesn't look like he has the enthusiasm.

    You would think the fixtures would be out today but there will probably be a hold up whilst police and SKY can decide when OF game can be played. No reason why they can't release bottom 6 fixtures but they won't do that.
  8. SFA require new head of refereeing to improve VAR. They also require him/her to have experience of VAR. This means it has to be a referee. Who of the existing bunch would you expect to ruffle the feathers of their pals. So surely it has to be UK/foreign referee.
  9. Hopefully they can use the 2 week break to work on passing and set pieces. At set pieces and corners there is never any variation. Usually planted in the goalies gloves. I won't be holding my breath as Levein is tactically inept. His use of or lack of use of substitutes rather is a big concern. When it's obvious some guys are blowing out their arse and are not subbed is a concern. Again on Saturday when Phillips was injured it was obvious he wasn't staying on, they still had no one ready . I saw them trying to shout to someone from the dugout , C Smith responded but was it him they were shouting at. This guy has been away from the game too long but surely Kirk is a modern football coach.
  10. Looking at the forecast it looks like it will not be required.

    Watched the first 50 mins of game and County were the better team and deserved their win. They are probably the best team in the bottom 6 and have the momentum so play offs for us if we can avoid bottom.

    If Sky are interested in bottom 6 ,which I doubt then they will want Saints v County as the last game. Even without Sky if the SPFL are interested in competition and excitement they would also want it.
  13. There is no one in that squad that are not signed that I would want to see next season. I would also hope that emotionless mumbling Levein is gone as well. I don't want to see anti football again next season.
  14. Not sure Dodds worked out well. I seemed to remember he missed a sitter at Motherwell on the last day of the season and we were relegated. I am sure Geoff got his £500 grand and maybe more from Aberdeen.
  15. One team going for Europe and the other trying to avoid the play offs and it showed. They attacked , we tried to stop their attacks. We always play the first half in our own half trying not to lose a goal but we usually do and allow opponents the build confidence and usually a goal. We usually end up chasing the game and we are a team with lack of confidence and with the threat of relegation hanging over our head. Not conducive with good relaxed football.
  16. Does Levein not have a watch. 3 subs on with 3 mins to go . Other subs made due to injury. Those 2 clowns do not know what tactical substitutions are. What to **** do they spend the whole game talking about ?. As for the game it seems to be pass back is the fall back position. Defence is a shambles . Those 2 goals were avoidable. Is it lack of sharp ess or leaving it to eachother.
  17. Don't think it will be required as forecast looks no bad til Wednesday. We have had the bonus this season with big crowds for Dundee and Killie as they are doing fine at the moment. Always good to see the wee teams get support.
  18. John Beaton on VAR so game will be refd from portakabin.
  19. Yeah , surprised Fran has not been used since the Airdrie game when we were poor and he was moved into midfield where he got hammered and never came out in the second half. When he played in behind the strikers I thought we were getting back into the game. Did he play against Killie in the last home game as their wingers never caused us too many problems in that game . If we let their wingers get crosses in their strikers will destroy us.
  20. Because it has affected Rangers ,Dundee will get hauled over the coals but a precedent was set with Motherwell and I think they only got a fine but I don't think they had 5 games called off.
  21. I would give Parker, McCrystal, Mylchreest and Steven contracts. They may not be regulars but decent squad players and not a huge drag on the budget. Would also offer Gallagher an extention.
  22. Training with Saints to improve his fitness. Good luck with that
