Paulo Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 We'd have probably taken a few off Celtic if we fielded a full strength side anyway. A draw on Saturday would be enough, but I'd like to see us give Motherwell a doing just for good measure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian_mac Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 Archie will be setting out to win the game, we can be sure of that. Don't forget we rested a few players ourselves on Wednesday night, so I would hope the likes of Doolan, Erskine and Dumbuya will feel the benefit of that. I think a game like this comes down to who wants it more, us or them. They certainly are fighting for their lives just now and will be more than up for this game. We need to make sure that we match that. I think we would all agree that we have more quality in our team than they have this season, so as long as we show the right attitude we should beat them, barring some sort of disaster like an early red card.

MonehJags Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 On a paranoid thought, I wouldn't be surprised if somehow the team bottom of the league finished on more points than us in 6th and Doncaster's mob relegated us instead. They changed the rules before to relegate us...... Its not going to happen anyway, our confidence is through the roof and we will be good enough to beat motherwell.

lady-isobel-barnett Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 I feel those that are saying we're the Jags and have a recent history of not turning up for the likes of tomorrow's game are off the mark in this instance. I haven't checked but I think we've only lost twice in our last thirteen league games. It's said that in terms of current form only Celtic and Aberdeen have a better record. If we were to lose to a Motherwell side desperate for three points, provided we still put in a spirited performance, then I wouldn't be calling it a typical Jags bottle job. Losing three matches in fourteen would still be a very creditable achievement. Personally i think it'll be a very tough game and wouldn't be surprised at a draw.

Big Col Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 I think this game has all the makings of one of the best games of the season, with both teams having something important to play for. But I think we'll win it. 3-1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert's Ghost Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 On a paranoid thought, I wouldn't be surprised if somehow the team bottom of the league finished on more points than us in 6th and Doncaster's mob relegated us instead. I'd have to check, but I don't think that's mathematically possible. Given we do enough to get 6th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stillresigned Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 In previous seasons I'd have been extremely nervous about games like this. However, this team have proved this season to have been more than a little resourceful and perhaps more importantly able to take a punch and get up again. Therefore, I think we are more than good enough to get the points tomorrow and hopefully go to Greyskull with an 8 game unbeaten streak. That's one game I'd love to win 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yellow & Redneck Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 Lawless nearly always seems to turn up for games against his ex-club. Would like to see him start tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady-isobel-barnett Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 Lets hope that we get a large crowd for this one as the players certainly deserve it! Totally agree. If that occurred the question of why so many Jags fans stayed away during what can only be described as an exceptional season can be left to later.

sandy Posted April 8, 2017 Report Share Posted April 8, 2017 (edited) Im off to Berlin today, will be checking the score. A 2-0 scoreline for the Jags will result in several large German beers being consumed later.... Edited April 8, 2017 by sandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norgethistle Posted April 8, 2017 Report Share Posted April 8, 2017 We have every reason and motivation to turn up and get a result - cement top 6 - reach for 5th or higher - beat the longest unbeaten run in the top flight in over 40 years - go into the split on a positive goal difference I think 5th is a distinct possibility this year, I also think we could go through the next 7 games unbeaten, but let's dispose of Motherwell first 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinhead Posted April 8, 2017 Report Share Posted April 8, 2017 Big Game today, nerves are kicking in. Decent weather and should also be a decent crowd. Hopefully **** them over, it is overdue! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eljaggo Posted April 8, 2017 Report Share Posted April 8, 2017 Recovering from op. so can't make the game today. I'm a bit surprised that some don't give the result the importance it deserves, given that a top 6 finish secured today will allow the manager more time to plan for next season with the extra income that comes with that. Not sure how much that might be, but I'm sure someone on here has done the sums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
