    Most stats back this up since ballumbie liked the game stats, then Neilsons record can't be ignored

    Really can't understand the current feel around some of our fans, I must have dreamt the improvement in everyway on and off the park over the last year and how much better the present and future looks

    I do disagree a bit with you ttt, one of our problems after January was not taking the chances we were creating, we did attack and we did make chances, that's obviously what we all do going forward, but we will be a solid side too that looks for result over performance if need be
    I also go along with this. I know some of our posters want Robbie to take the shackles off and let the team attack, attack, attack. I would love to see that too. And maybe that will come in due course.

    However, he's like Levein in that he wants to make us a solid defensive unit first and foremost. Absolutely right IMO.

    We ARE making progress. The stats back that up. We're rid of Csaba AND the Thomson regime. And I think we're in good shape for the league season. I'm not one of those that think we'll cruise to the title. Far from it. EVERY game we play the opposition will be out to get a scalp from us. We wont win every game. But I believe we have got the squad (almost - we need an out and out winger) to be strong challengers for the title.

    Let's face it, if we are not right up there by the end of the calender year, he may well get punted. I hope not, cause with Ogren and Ashgar, Neilson's replacement could be really random and I fear that a bit.

    I'm hoping Robbie will get there this season and give us a sound basis for a return to the top league.

    I'm not buying the rumour that the championship will be easier this year.

At the other end, being better organized will see our opponents disrupt and snub out our attacking threat, turning those wins into draws and defeats.

    Look back at last season and tell me i am wrong? Dunfermline opener, Alloa home draw and away loss, 5-1 reversal at home to County.

    We may have new owners, we may have a better coach and squad of players, but we seem to be playing the same way with a number of the same flaws! Stennies goal proved that!
    Even our best team EVER lost soft goals and lost games occasionally. I think you should give this new team a bit of time to settle.

    Well, with a couple of home games to come in the Betfred, we may well see that.

    It would be nice to approach the 1st game of the league with a couple of solid wins under our belt.

    Gotta admit, I'm excited and intrigued to see how Shankland performs. He's got off to a decent start. We need to feed him though.
