    Neither does the calendar.

    We’ve had a poor first half to the season but plenty time left.

    We're not even good. Transfer window is crucial.

    For what? There’s about 5 teams at least better than us so the question is time for what? Keep the same amount of season ticket holders? Because it will be a miracle if we do.

    To sign 2 or 3 first team starters to improve the side.

    Half way through, 8th in the league. If anyone had suggested we’d have been in that position now at the start of the season they would’ve been laughed off of .net

    Nowhere near good enough, let’s see if it can be rectified in January. Think our best hope is a top 6 finish. Hopefully doesn’t hit the ST sales too hard either

    Out of our last 39 available points we’ve picked up 12. That’s potential relegation form over a period of 1/3rd of the season. Our decent start to the season has meant we probably don’t have to worry about that this season but we definitely look like a team that belongs in the bottom half imo.

    I think that one's been done to death as well. I think the "biggest budget in our history" is currently nestling in the bank instead of being spent on players.

    It's maybe the biggest bank balance in our history, though.

    There’s a growing gap now between the the top four and the next four. Even with an improved second half to the season I think we’re almost out of contention for Europe

    Funny that coz according to some on here we have the best manager ever?? We are a bottom 6 side and he has turned us into that with his dreadful signings...he needs to turn this around and fast

    Let's be honest. I'm a happy clapper. Loved my time in Athens/Tripoli but come on we are utter *****.

    But I'll qualify that. We're missing 2 good players. Midfielders preferrably. Allan...and one other

    Terrible phrase. Did it lie 2/3 months ago when people were talking about title challenges?

    Did it lie when Hearts/Livi were near the top?

    Totally agree. Dreadful.

    If we don't scrape into the top 6 we could easily find ourselves in a relegation play off. This is far worse than Fenlons team when he got the sack. Thank the lord we had a decent start to the season.

    We’re 17 ahead of 2nd bottom with 17 to go. We’ll not be in a relegation playoff. You’d have to be looking at a huge improvement from one of the bottom two with us losing near enough every game for us to get drawn into that.

    It's bad, but nowhere near Fenlon bad.

    I assume I’m missing something and this post isn’t meant to come across as serious. As bad as we are, it’s not close to being as bad as a Fenlon or a Butcher team. We won’t get top six but we won’t be near a relegation playoff either. Dundee, St Mirren and Hamilton are garbage.

    It’s not worse than Fenlon’s team and he didn’t get the sack.

    Don't think we will be in the play offs but it could be a similar season to the 10/11 one where we are stuck in the bottom 6 with no meaningful games in the split. Everything went stale that season after getting 4th and Europe the year before and you get the feeling it's happening again

    12 points from 39 is worrying. We need to have a good transfer window and desperately need a quality midfielder to arrive.

    it works in cycles. build a good side then lose them and struggle to replace like for like.

    play average, not as bad as the hysteria and panic claims, just inconsistent. throw in the injuries and international call ups and the cycle continues cos the fans panic and turn on the manager.

    the manager is chased out, the cycle continues, players are sold on or replaced for the sake of it. and the club gets worse.

    the manager is chased out...

    this isn't fenlon or calderwood or butcher. this is Lennon, his record before and with hibs means he has earned the right to have one bad half a season (not bad, just average cos there have been good results).

    this place is mental.

    Difference is Lennon has some credit in the bank with people.

    Fenlon had two of the worst results in the clubs history behind him.
