Wouldn’t say St Mirren (with exception of Morgan) or County won it with any real quality. Squads mostly made up of unfashionable players, many of whom failed at Tannadice but they knew how to get the job done.
Not sure I agree with that. Ultimately it's about the quality on the park that counts most.

Like most things in life, nothing is ever easy. I actually think both your and I are right, it's a complicated business football.
We were doing fine until Christmas after half of the games played, went on long unbeaten run, were ahead of hibs, were winning away from home, barely defeated at home, then we made daft changes in January and lost a couple games and never recovered...getting rid of Cammy Smith and Obadeyi mid season was stupid.

I reckon we’ve already gifted the league by laying down the “look at us” “billy big boots” mantle for every other team to use as ammunition against us! 🤬😡
If half our squad had the quality they claim to have we wouldn’t still be in the fizzy pop league. Cmon United cut this bull.... out and start thinking about fighting for every ball to get the WFDUFC back in the Premiership.
One thing United need to avoid doing is dropping stupid points to the part time teams in the league given how costly these results can be.
Since relegation more than enough points have been dropped against such opposition and poor results home or away against Dumbarton, Alloa and even a draw at a dreadfully outclassed Brechin side just is not good enough.
I am still am confident of winning the league this year however.
All depends on what style of play Neilson has us playing.
If we set up not to get beat, like he did all season rather than go for it then we will drop points then it's the playoffs again unfortunately.
Hopefully he's not as cautious as last season and goes with 2 up top but i very much doubt it...
