Tommy Wright to Killie..........looks like a good fit.
Hope they both do well.
hmmm...going to be a tricky one that for Saints fans - St Johnstone's most successful manager ever - a legend at the club - managing one of our main rivals (at least it's not Dundee or Utd). Seeing a good deal of pragmatism on the main Saints forum - wishing him well in the Championship next year :) Our football under Tommy was never brilliant - functional and successful - but not very attractive. Main concern seems be him taking out of contract players from us - and how easy it is to get the 'Thank You Tommy' banner down from the East Stand...;) But I'm sure he'll be welcomed back when Killie next play at McDiarmid Park.

Thought we were going to scrape the 3 points today(okay an o>g.-but I'll take it),but you've got to say well done Accies,never gave up did they?
We didn't play well and front 3 couldn't really impress(due to Accies on top of them)
Still another point in bag-but again well done to Brian Rice and his team-great attitude.

Hamilton were the better team for most of the match and might have won if it wasn't for McGregor, they defo deserved at least a draw.
Gerard underestimated them and picked the wrong starting line up. Why was Roofe on the bench :confused:
But still a bit unlucky to lose a goal in 3 mins 59 seconds of the 4 minutes injury time, the final second :cry:

Roofe was rubbish in the previous game and didn't look fit enough. That perhaps contributed to "the" tackle.
Rangers have still not lost a match so that is a big positive given that they easily could have lost.

I think you could have put the "" around tackle rather than the but do appreciate (and not in any sarcastic way) your recognition that as a 'tackle' it was not all it should have been. Not sure how long Davidson is out for - but likely he'll miss the League Cup Final in 3 weeks time.

Seemingly that tackle wasn't the cause of his injury, it's his other leg that was injured later in the game that's causing the problem.

His injury was not due to Roofe. His other leg is the one that he got the treatment on, not the one Roofe kicked.

So, question for the Rangers fans.

How is your confidence in the title?

Was talking about this with a couple of guys at work. 21 points ahead but 2 games ahead. Celtic win those, it's down to 15 with 10 games to play.

15 from 30 points available. Celtic win the 2 OF derbies your down to 9 after 32 games with 6 games and 18 still to play for.

So, how is the bottle up at Castle Greyskull these days? I know it's crashed faster and more times than Volvo's test dummies in the last couple of years...

Celtic won't win all their games and Rangers only need to win 5. It will be nervy but fine.

BTW, I don't think their bottle crashed in the last 2 years, they just weren't good enough. Once Morelos went off the boil last year especially.

I think a possible blue tinge to that last line Ken? What made them not good enough after pretty much being unplayable for the first half of the season? They didn't just suddenly become bad players surely? Morelos has flattered to deceive on many occasions for the neutral observer.

What makes you think Celtic won't win all their games? They have the squad and they have proved that they can still win games.

Just a devil's advocate view from a neutral who would rather Raith won the league than either of the OF (and as a Pars fan, that's saying something).

As I said, just a discussion about how certainties can become uncertain if recent history is consulted...

Exercise in thought.

No more thought required, just congratulate Rangers on an excellent season and make sure I know what day they win the title so I don't watch the highlights on Sportscene by accident ??

Oh dear Greig,and there was me going to make the mighty Pars my East Coast team...oh well, back to the superb Lichties.
Seriously though.If we bugger this up this time then it's just postponing the installation of Saint Gerrard until next season(plus I might well go back on the alcohol).
St.Gerrard at Ibrox---who would have thought that (until Souness breezed in years ago-and all for the better)! I know,I know-a different spelling but who cares
