    Not recently has ´two wins in a row´
    Been part of post match chatter amongst fans,
    And it does leave a warm-ish Sunday glow
    While washing up the after luncheon pans

    Not that significantly, does it seem
    That Alex Neil has changed that much at all,
    So this sudden improvement on the green
    Has been players responding to the call

    And better late than not, if you ask me
    There was a patch not that so long ago,
    When they played tweedledum and tweedledee
    Taking a break, while watching the grass grow

    Whether home form can be maintained away
    Is quite another matter altogether,
    Especially when it´s lowly clubs we play
    We end the game feeling under the weather

    But this proves, at least, to me, what I thought
    That so far we are right to stick with Neil,
    It´s players who have not to be outfought
    And add to their skill, necessary steel

    And perhaps now they have just realised
    Just what it takes in this league to succeed,
    Blood, sweat and work rate cannot be disguised
    If we´re to reach once more the ´Land of Greed´ OTBC

    Well Rick, if the players have actually learnt anything, and this is not just one more false dawn, then I´d say there are grounds for tentative optimism of a 3 - 6 finish, but there´s an awful lot that can go wrong yet. The top two have got too far away imo, and it would take an almighty crash for either of them to miss out on automatic, and they seem far too steady to give away that many points.
