They worried about Shankland.

12 months ago we drew 1-1 with Partick at home to leave us on 33 points after 20 games with a +1 GD. Even leaders Ross Coonty were only on 39 points after 20 games themselves. The improvement in that time is stark - most noticeably in winning games exactly like today and away to Arbroath, Morton etc. We’ll all remember the 6-2, the 6-0 v Morton, the 3-0 and 4-1 v ICT etc but leagues are won on games like today. And for the attention of Funsters peeking in - that’s not by luck........:D

Nae probs mate,that wonderful derby display from the Dee has got me worried, they are hitting form at the time we normally go on the slide.After the derby McPoke said he just could not understand how there could be 17 points between the sides and the Funsters backed that statement to the hilt.

He was spot on by the way and the league table tonight proves his point.

I've got to admire your confidence B4. I am a pessimist by nature.

"One game at a time....."

Auld Lena Martell shrieking it out before every game!

Is twenty points enough?

I hope so.

I know GB and the footballing genius McPoke must be totally dumbfounded and at lose as to how there is a now 20 point gap between the sides. 🤔

McPake is a ****ing bellend! Every manager knows a league is won by the team that is most consistent, consistency versus inconsistency (or just pure ****e) is the reason for the now 20 point gap
