November 2015 - Doomed to be bottom come season end; or not?
As we await Mr Hainey's PPT thread getting updated after the latest capitulation, I'm going to do a monthly poll to see who thinks we will remain BOTTOM and thus not even have a Play Off roll of the dice; and who does not?

NO.
Somehow I really do believe that Mixu will turn things around and save us this season. But come May I doubt I'll have any finger nails left. It will be a close thing but I'm sure we will survive.
F.T.D.

Cannot see where a win will come from with half arse attitude from the less experienced players in our squad.
Doomed tae fuck.

Until, Szromnik, Durnan and Spittal are replaced with better players and Dillon, Souttar, Telfer and Dixon get their fingers out and play for the full 90 minutes instead of the 50-60 minutes they are just now, the answer is yes.
Too much commotion

No we will stay up 100%
Mixu's tactics are good it's just going to take well into next year before we really see us climb the table

We don't give a damn what the others say
We'll cheer on United all the way

Still only notched up two wins fewer than the rest of the teams in the bottom six.
At this stage any sort of decent run will make the difference.
But December is a massive, massive month.

Would like to be more positive on this but we're just not going to get enough goals between now and the transfer window and as there's not much between the other sides they'll all pick up points.
Come January the gap between us and the sides in 10th and 11th will be too big to pull back regardless of any signings we make.

I think we'll get relegated.
We have that air of 'doomed' about us.Similiar to the way you seen Hibs capitulation materialising 2 years ago.

Re: November 2015 - Doomed to be bottom come season end; or not?
There's not much difference between the teams at the top of the SPFL and those at the bottom. Every team is capable of beating every other team, with two exceptions. Few teams are able to take points of Celtic and Dundee United are unable to take points of anyone else. That's the difference between top and bottom. It is imperative that Demel and Pongole make a huge difference to our fortunes. What a pressure to be under.

No from me ATM Foo, but I think we'll have a better idea come the 2nd January.

Several changes in January might save us: I'm hopeful. Some folk yesterday I was speaking to though were saying they'd rather go straight down that face a play off: Kind of understand, if we were paired with the Ibrox club.
We need to get sorted out at the back with what we have presently, until reinforcements are sourced, and until the goalie work permit situation is resolved.
Get the goalkeeper to hit it long, with McGowan shifting over from the wing back position, more centrally, as an aerial ball winner: or big Demel, just to vary distribution from the back.

Re: November 2015 - Doomed to be bottom come season end; or not?
Yesterday after the game was the first time that I have thought we were going down.
We were shite under Jackie, but I thought there was a decent team in there.
Was happy with what Mixu was saying and doing, pleased with his signings and there was an improvement in attitude and performance.
We've played well for 40 and 60 minutes in our last two games yet still got beat from being in front, at home, twice.
Couple that with the teams above us picking up points every week, its a nightmare.
I don't think it's inevitable but it'll take a healthy spend in early January and other teams to go on a bad run for us to finish 10th.
PS, its a No just now. Out of denial more than optimism to be honest.

Re: November 2015 - Doomed to be bottom come season end; or not?
On the upside lads..mif the teams above us are picking up points then the teams above them - say 9-6th are dropping points and thus the whole league is getting tighter. Giving that - a good run/the correct sales/signings in January and we could finish the season even higher!
Not saying it will happen but possible.
The teams above us will be sitting it to -;guaranteed they are saying to their players 'united are turning - let's get tge points and stay above united' - all well and good but that only lasts so long - otherwise these teams would be winning the league.
Lastly, all teams have a good run - we've not had ours and thistle are most certainly on theirs right now. In our last game in Maryhill, they beat us comfortably - but that was due to the absolute mess jackie had us in.
Changes are happening coupled with the ineffectiveness of our opponents.
If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.

Don't think we will go down. New keeper should be in next week, one or two of the new signings are bound to improve us, January is getting closer with the hope of more squad changes. Still have belief in Mixu. We were shite, we're getting better and some luck is due.

I'm starting to look out boozers in Dunfermline , Kirkcaldy and shit holes like that (sorry Pat Reilly) for next season.
man up for fucks sake -if we go down that's fucking life -it will break my heart but worst things have happened.
Oh, what came of the things we once believed?
