Still some folk saying we were helped by the points deduction.
No we weren`t. We finished above the playoff spot regardless.

That`s right Parrot, and I`m very glad we did finish above Airdrie and Queens Park. It means NL can rightly claim he acheived safety for us.

It’s a hard one to call in terms of, had they not had the deduction, would they, Queens Park and Airdrie still have had the same results?

Can you explain that to me AAPS? Which particular match results do you think could have been different, that would have affected us?

Hamilton`s results against us maybe? They took 9 points to our 3.

^^^ Must have missed something as not hearing this 🤔
We definitely survived on our own merit and it came about from the signing of NL and the capitulation of QP
Simple 👊

There`s no point dwelling on stuff like this. Chances are everything might have panned out differently. Different attitudes. Butterfly effect etc. Or the results might have been similar.
Or if Hamilton hadn`t signed the players they did etc etc.
But we live in this timeline where we finished 7th and that`s that.

I too am glad we did it on merit.
Be clear though - Hamilton cheated and were able to field a team of players that they should not have been able to. They won points ( even just by individual players goals they scored) with players who should not have been on the park. So had we finished below QPark - it does not stop the above being factual.

Hamilton are staying full-time next season according to the Sun.

What rusty said, spot on.
We also did it without scoring a goal. Amazing.

21 (?) league games without scoring - yet we survived on “merit” - everything is relative I suppose. 🤔

It doesn’t - we’ve been crap all season with the exception of a couple of reasonable(ish) results.
The goals for column speaks for itself.
Being the marginally least worst in the relegation pack is no great achievement.

You have to adjust your targets as the season progresses. At the start of the season we were all hoping for better but it didn`t work out that way.

Are folk seriously calling this season an achievement? Based on what exactly?
We’ve literally finished one place worse off than last year and are 10 points behind what we managed then. Not to mention the fact we’re the lowest scoring team in all 4 divisions of Scottish football. That’s not progress, that’s regression.
If that’s an achievement, I dread to think what failure looks like.
