Three draws of late have fans moaning, but hang on — did anyone actually think we'd win every single game the moment Rohl arrived? To be fair, the context matters and the season isn’t dead yet.
Progress over panic
Look back to October and tell me you'd rather be where we are now. Rohl steadied a ship that was sinking under the previous regime. One draw and one loss early on is miles better than the run of results we had under Martin, and you can see why patience was the sensible approach. This had to be a rebuild across transfer windows, not an overnight fix.
Drops happen to everyone
Yes, dropping points against certain teams stings — we all want a flawless run — but every club slips up. To single out those draws as season-ending mistakes is a bit harsh. Every team can point to games they should have won. The truth is consistency is what wins titles, and that takes time to build, especially when changing personnel and shape mid-season.
Keep perspective — still in the fight
We've only been beaten twice this season, both times by Hearts, which itself shows we're not getting turned over week in, week out. And what Celtic did to us recently? It was the same pattern we used on them at Parkhead, only that night we came away with the result. Football flips like that. So don’t get too downhearted. There’s still plenty to play for and, if you’d offered this position back in October, most of us would have snapped your hand off.
Call it realism not pessimism. Supporters should demand improvement, yes, but there’s a difference between constructive criticism and writing off a season after a handful of dropped points. Hold the faith — there’s still work to do, but this campaign isn’t finished yet.
