The Championship

[DUFCstokie]

A bold managerial appointment from Queens Park. They were good last season and looks like they may be one to watch again.

I reckon you could be on to something with QP.

Don’t forget Inverness, with the money they got for reaching the final , plus the way they finished the season once they got all their players back from long term injuries , I believe they will be your nearest challengers , finish above them and you’ll win the league

notso makes a very fair point regarding ICT,i am sure at some point early last season they had a horrific injury list with around 8 first team players out with long term injuries.Their form later in the season improved when some of the injured players returned.

Championship odds. United are bookies favourites by some distance. United at 11/8, the next nearest is Partick at 6/1

Do we deserve that tag? I think we will benefit from a not very strong league. I would say if we bring in a fairly decent keeper and a striker yes, otherwise we could struggle to live up to this billing and be as mediocre as the rest.

The bookies must know something that we don't with regards to players incoming, because as things stand, we'd struggle to even get a playoff spot. Lacking in every area and hopelessly imbalanced.

Morton beat St Mirren 2-0 yesterday, were solid enough last season under Imrie

Championship teams tonight

Ayr won in Perth 2-1
ICT 2-3 Airdrie in an all championship affair
Pars won 3-0 at non league Albion
QP thumped Elgin 5-0 at home
Arbroath lost 3-1 in Forfar

Hearing that Steven Fletcher and David Wotherspoon will sign for the Pars today......no doubt the Nisbet money has came through for them now.

[shedka]

Be pretty weird to see Fletcher leave Utd then decide to join a smaller club in the same division, was disappointied in his decision to leave when Motherwell were mentioned but at least you could say they are premiership

[Yeats 62]

Did Fletch , no agree to rip up his contract for mutual benefit? (might be wrang there)

In saying that, why would you do that, unless you were thinking about another club coming in for you?

Maybe some of the so-called smaller clubs, for various reasons can pay a wee bit more than we can.

Och..... FCUK it ............... in the words of Marvin Gaye... LETS GET IT ON...

If Fletcher did get a pay off its basically us helping direct rivals. To be honest I'm a bit annoyed by this.

Is there actually any truth in this though, apparently it's from a dodgy looking twitter account. Not seen anything anywhere else
