..... fans would be delighted with the cup and we would win every game in the league next year. We would storm the SPL the following season.

I'm talking adding thousands to the gates.

Is that you Rod?

I'm on my phone.... It's a bit difficult to make it out...... Is it the name of the site or what it's selling?.........



Or both! :D

You shouldn't really be saying that Andy. It's not sensational enough and too reasonable.

"We're doomed", "disaster", lose all our fans" etc...

I remember thinking our budget should be getting us better players than Ross County, Killie, St Mirren, St Johnstone, Dundee Utd, Motherwell, Partick Thistle, even Hearts.

Yet we didn't and disaster happened and we've lost fans.

Anything less than promotion this year is a failure on the targets set by the new regime.

Winning the cup would be a pleasant bonus though.

Did you go under Butcher ? This team is like Barca compared to that lot.

I'm not saying we're playing badly. The problem is its hard to get the fans motivated at the games and as a result the stadium is like a morgue. With no hearts and possibly no huns it's would be worse next season.

Yeh, so .. nuh.

Im in the camp that isn't bothered that he's kicking about the club, as long he doesn't make any decisions that impact the football club.

We would have had a great season in terms of enjoyment, and I suspect a lot more fans through the gates, if we were competing for the title at this stage of the season. Next season if we are leading the league, and scoring goals, Im sure fans will come back. Particularly if we're leading the SPL

[4 Front Teeth]

Obviously I'd rather do well in the SPL and win the cup. But another thing is...... if Hearts and Rangers went up and we stormed the championship next season there is a good chance that we would end up with a couple of players we could sell for a fortune. And maybe a better chance of doing well in the SPL the following season because of a winning mentality and some cash to be spent wizely..... like the last time we went Up.

So overall we win way more games......there is more buzz about the place...... we get a lot of press with all the wins...... and the fans love it... = bigger crowds.

Or.... get up though the skin of our teeth now and float about bottom of league for a few years... = the same or lower crowds. Who knows we could do really well.

It's just a gut feeling that I have.

You make a good point there as I remember I really enjoyed our last trip down in this division. I went to loads of away games that season. I've renewed for next season and I'm going to join a supporters bus and go to away games again. I'm still confident I'll be going to places like Parkhead rather than Starks Park though.

[Bad Martini]

A gut feeling I have is, this thread is a lot of pish and a windup.

And for that reason am saying **** all to any passing yam trolls or even resident yam trolls.

Yer still tax dodging, puddle drinking mutants. And all the ****ing windups in the world makes no ****ing difference.

ENDOF

[Jim44]

A windup it may well be and a scenario I totally disagree with but I'm pleasantly surprised to learn that nearly everyone else rejects this as well, since it's not too long ago that a thread, maybe a poll, on this board showed a huge number of supporters who would sacrifice promotion for winning the cup.

Dont think they were sacrificing promotion for the cup.It was more if you had to pick one and one only, which would it be. I'd still pick the cup but i want both.

I still would.

Ideally we get both. Realistically, we will get none. But if I had to choose one, then the cup.
