    At least 6 I reckon.

    That followed by Wednesday away at Livi and it could be curtains.

    Christ knows where we go from there.

    Was completely relaxed going into these fixtures last season

    Only positive about Sunday, it can't be as bad as people are expecting, so as fans we can go to the game with a nothing to lose, bring it on attitude, football can be a funny game, if only we could get the fans that are going up for it, I mean AZ at home happened, Celtic can have an off day, they (famous last words) aren't scoring for fun as yet

    Also we dominated possession against St Mirren who benefitted from our errors to counter on us, with a bit more care we draw at worst, we will be the team sitting in and trying to counter, very different game

    If he sets us up the same as last few games with Edwards/Mulgrew in a back 4, with a lightweight midfield with no one protecting the defence then we will get pumped. There are no excuses for Ross if he does that, it will prove he literally hasn't got a clue with this squad and is not willing to change to suit and that will absolutely worry me.

    Regardless of the result, Ross has to show he understands who is in the squad and that he's attempting a formation that should suit them.

    I'm the manager, and, my team plays this way, and.......... I'm the manager, and, I would like my team to play this way, sound very similar, yet are worlds apart.

    I agree , the manager has to be the Boss with final say on everything, or it just won't work. But.......... good managers listen to players and fans.

    I really hope in the future JR can get us playing the way he wants, but... for now... shut the back door, protect the defence, (and keeper) and play someone close to SF. Fletcher wins 99% of headers, holds the ball up pretty well, lays the ball off no bad too. Lets get this game out of the way (with a draw) and move on.

    PS: anyone got any Rohypnol for Jota's water bottle ???

    I'd start Graham in defence and Mulgrew in midfield...
