    How many points

    do we need to be ahead of the best squad in the Championship before you are confident we will finish above them this season?.

    At the moment we are 14 points clear,have a game in hand and have a +24 goal difference.I will only start to relax if we can extend our lead to 20 points,i have been saying for weeks now that its only a matter of time before it all clicks into place for them.

    Yeah, it’s definitely a worrying time for United. If we can get a 30 point gap by mid February and increase our goal difference to around +50 then I might sleep a wee bit easier. By then if the sleeping giant awakes we might just limp over the finishing line

    Bit concerned they'll start to reel us in once they buy Scott Robertson off us for £500,000.
    But at least they've got that Scottish Cup Semi final against Aberdeen to look forward to, that was the one that never happened because Raith beat them in the quarter final after they'd printed the tickets for the Semi

    Their arrogance jealousy and sense of entitlement is off the scale and they deserve all the misery they're getting.

    I honestly think when that spade goes in the ground for the new stadium panic will set in at Tannadice.

    This is exactly the sobering kind of post i was hoping for,everybody do a Jordon Forster and keep your feet firmly on the ground as that high ball approaches,FACT.

    17 points and a +25 goal difference means nothing at this early stage.

    I'd be embarrassed to be behind any side in this league by such a margin after 36 games.. We have played 36 games haven't we???
