Just asking the question..... Individually I’d say yes we have better players than some teams in the league especially at the bottom end. Collectively as a team at the moment I’m not so sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piffer Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 Dropped down to 8th today. Only above St Johnstone on goal difference. Four points ahead of Ross County at the bottom. The recent form of Livi and St Mirren in particular shows what a difference a good run can make. We really need to start putting points on the board I watched St Mirren at Motherwell today. They’re a far better side than they were when we beat them in Paisley earlier in the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If, and its a big if, we and St Mirren win our appeals, Motherwell are also suddenly back in it too and Accies drop to the bottom. Plenty of time left to f**k it up or make it right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most important thing is we stop making excuses, stop shooting ourselves in the foot and start putting results on the board to get us away from any potential trouble 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bbk Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 Looks like this is going to be the way its going to be all season for every team from 4th to 12th all of us are potentially in the mix and we just have to make sure we start picking up as many points as we can! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C4mmy31 Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 Anyone who thinks we aint in a relegation battle at the moment needs to have a wee look at the table after today, our results over the next 3 weeks will determine how our season pans out.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of people seem very ready to make excuses these days for whatever reason. ”Run of hard games...injuries and suspensions....red cards...individual errors...refereeing mistakes...” One legitimate excuse might be the Covid outbreak, but St Mirren seem to be doing a lot better since they were affected - five wins and two draws in their last seven. The league table rarely lies and I hope the dressing room isn’t feeling as hard done by. Edited December 12, 2020 by skygod 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

December isn't going to be full of points for Killie as they aren't on form and hardly a threat going forward. Back to reality for the club and fans I'm afraid. Anyone who doesn't think we are going to be fighting relegation this season needs to take their blue tinted spex off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clayslap KIllie Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 Hibs result at Hamilton today just shows where we are in terms of getting results. Admittedly I always expected Hibs to be above us but they thumped Hamilton while we lost. Agree with others, excuses have to stop. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scouser2 Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 If we are deemed to be in a relegation battle then the same argument can be used for another 6 or 7 teams , it’s a strange league this season for various reasons .....top 4 are moving away , other clubs are all taking points off each other But for Doncaster er the SPFL awarding Motherwell 2 x 3 nil wins they would near bottom and a fair number of well fans may also be calling for their Manager to be sacked What is lacking for us and many clubs is any consistent positive results ..........with a busy schedule in next 4 weeks finding a good run of wins could change the outcome for any of these clubs , just hope we can somehow go on such a run 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that we are in a relegation battle, but especially with results today, so is everyone from 6th down. @skygod made mention of people being ready to make excuses - that table makes me feel more comfortable that their are excuses. This is about as weird as a season as I can remember. Below Hibs, no-one is putting a run together. Everyone is losing to everyone else. All of the teams have glaring flaws. All the teams have tiny squads. Take out the six free points and Motherwell have collapsed much more than we did after our year of getting into Europe. None of the above means we should accept second best, nor that we shouldn't be doing better than we are, but it's a weird old year for football. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaker71 Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 Not making excuses but.... Away to county, denied a stonewalled and they get a shocker given to them. 2pts Accies they get a shocker, we’re denied 2 stone walkers, swing 3 pts Hibs, shocker of a decision to send out guy off and never a penalty for their goal, swing 1pt murdereell given 3nil victory thats 6pts and potentially 9, that is one hell of a different position, and yes some will say that others have suffered also, but nowhere near the same extent of blatant ruckus by refs imo -3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thebigguy68 Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 Unless we have major injuries we’ll be alright. Our squad is soo much stronger than some others - hamilton, Ross county and st mirren . It would be an absolute catastrophe if this squad was in bottom 2 in this league. I think even if we put kris Burke in charge for rest of season well be ok. Changing the manager now would set us better for next season though. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
