Wether the Craig Levein FC fans like it or not we got a free run to the final which we nearly blew. Last season was supposed to be the season of no excuses, I think they used every excuse known. We did improve and we certainly never went backwards. It's a simple fact. Not even up for debate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlphonseCapone Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 34 minutes ago, JamboAl said: Target is an aim not a promise. If we fail someone should be held to account unless there are mitigating factors - such as serious longish term injuries to our most influential players, many at the same time. Without these I reckon we would have been comfortably at least 2 places higher. Of course. Failing to achieve your target doesn't mean there aren't good reasons why. But everyone from club owner down to fan recognises that 6th two years in a row isn't good enough for us. There's so much riding on this season, because baring the freak chances of us having the same sort of injury issues, this season is where Craig really needs to deliver an improvement in the league. Obviously everyone recognises that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brighton Jambo Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 22 minutes ago, Debut 4 said: League position is where you are judged. Simple as that. Cup runs can be random and many factors contributing to a good or bad run. If we didn’t do well in the cups, would you have still enjoyed the season? (Assuming you did) Like yourself I’ve seen us go out the cups early many times over the years but still enjoyed the campaign because we were strong in the league. It wasn’t enjoyable last season but staying in the cup kept us interested and with hope. Normally finishing top 3 means you’ve watched good matches, good players and results. Finishing 6th means the opposite most of the time. We reached an objective of making a final which I was delighted about but it was a tough gig last season And I agree with all that, it was a tough watch at times and league position was not good enough. But I stand by we had a better season than the year before based on progress in the cups. Of course I wouldn't have enjoyed the season as much has we been knocked out early of the cups but we didn't and I thoroughly enjoyed both big occasions.

Bazzas right boot Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 1 hour ago, Prof said: There is plenty of progress under AB but none under CL. Progress is not getting horsed in the CL, winning the SC and getting into the top 3 in the SPL. It is when in the lc and sc you went further and got more points than the season before. Is it enough progress, I'd say not and that is the debate. Going forward do we stick with this or rip it up and start again. We most definitely did not go backwards and by the very definition, progress v the previous season was made. Simple fact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorgie_Rules Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Can’t see it happening, however its the kind of appointment that Levein/Budge need to allow Levein to go back upstairs. Moyes’ stock is very low at any sort of decent level, can’t see a side in the top two divisions in England touching him and he failed miserably abroad so likely he’ll need to take a job in Scotland if wanting back in the game. Wasnt considered for Scotland or Celtic so it does make some sort of sense. Can’t see it though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambo Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 1 hour ago, Brighton Jambo said: Answer the following questions honestly: 1. Is reaching the semi final of the league cup better than being knocked out in the group stages? 2. Is reaching a cup final (our first in 7 years) better then being knocked out in the quarter finals? I get it, league position was disappointing, quality of football has been poor but to say that this season we didn't make progress compared to the previous season is just plainly incorrect. Cups are a hit and a miss depending on the draw, thats i what makes cups diffetent from the league, we couldn't fail to reach this years final though we gave it a go v Partick. Progress imo is based on league games over a season, we did not progress. Season 17/18 We finished 33 points behind 1st and 24 behind second, last year we finished 36 and 27 points behind those places, so for those getting the open top bus ready to parade the extra 2 points, reverse gear is marked with a R.

I think we'll make that up next season Many games were marginal. We made that on hibs the season past (or there abouts) I could be wrong but we actually gained ground on hibs and Aberdeen, despite the poor season. The point about not falling apart is a different issue and I agree a concern. The point about getting better results with our better players available is a fair opinion to have.

OTT Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Interestingly, if you google David Moyes a link to a Killie article comes up. Perhaps Moyes is just looking for a job. Financially, he's set for life, so you'd need to hope that the prospect of getting time and resources to build success is tempting. He's never going to get a top 4 job again and will likely be confined to midtable clubs when they realise their current manager is pish (to then bin Moyes in the summer to restart again( rinse and repeat)). I'd love to see us get him. Heres an interesting question, if it was the difference between getting him and his team or not, would you be agreeable to the FOH part funding his wage? (for arguments sake lets say 50/50). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not the least interested in Kilmarnock - we're talking about the great HMFC! Or at least I was but you keep trying to shift the argument until you get to a point where you are nearer to being right. I said 2 places comfortably. Once you get back to night school for your arithmetic revision you'll be able to work out that means comfortably 4th - NOT 3rd nor winning the league. Try another angle, STALKER.
