Under Pressure ?


IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER

Recommended Posts

Those statistics really are amazing but - take away the Old Firm (good point against Rangers) and Jam Tarts (worst home preformance of the season for me) - and lets face it - dropping points to Midden, Hamilton, Well and St Jones Town should not happen.

I can't believe the arrogance of this statement. Inverness, Hamilton, St. Johnstone and St. Mirren are all teams of equal size. Why can't any of these teams regularly take points off of each other? What makes a team who have only just been promoted remember, seem to think they have the divine right to turn up and claim points before a ball is kicked? Caley are on an enviable run of form just now. That can't be called into question but in reality are just a small team as are these other sides mentioned. Howden needs to drop the Old Firm attitude and live in the real world.

Where I agree with a lot you have said there about the teams mentioned being of equal size and stature I don't necessarily think IHE was being arrogant if you look at it in a different context. If you look at our run of form and results this season he is right that we shouldn't be dropping points against St Mirren, Hamilton and St Johnstone, when I say points I mean not winning at home and anything less than a draw away. Against Motherwell I'm not sure as when Brown was in charge they were a very decent team.

We can't go to Tynecastle, Celtic Park and Ibrox and take a point from all three then entertain St Mirren at home and play so badly and lose all three points, if you look at those 3 away results I mentioned we have every right to question why we are losing points against those so called 'lesser teams' (which by the way aren't lesser to ICT just lesser in the SPL) and expect to be able to at least challenge and take all three points.

If ICT and we have any aspirations of a top six finish this season we need to be expecting to beat the likes of St Mirren, Hamilton and St Johnstone. There is nothing arrogant about that.
