That's a good point actually. Still, whenever we play our last game at Fir Park this season the players should be showing some appreciation to the fans who've cheered them on this season. Not to do so would be a bit off.

One thing that bringing Dan in at this point will do is boost his confidence heading into the play-offs. He's a player who'll be here next season, whereas Long will be "long" gone by the time we kick off next season. Aye, I'd bring Dan back.

Why not go along and boo like fuck then? See how many other fans actually join in with you in turning your back? As for the end of season lap of honour, if the players don't take the time to actually applaud the fans who've backed them this season (primarily one end of the east if we're honest. The rest tend to shift between hurling abuse at our youngsters or sitting in silence) then they'll likely get a right bollocking. The game itself is nothing more than an inconvenience before the two major games that lay in wait.

I'm not really sure that Hutchinson strikes me as the kind of guy who really listens to the fans.

None of that changes the fact that having Rangers in the top division is a priority for the Scottish football authorities. From a financial point of view you can bet that they'd rather have them than us playing there next season.

Because it's been made quite clear that the owner doesn't hold him responsible for what's happened this season and believes he's the man for the job.

there's no point in starting the Baraclough out stuff, as the owner made it clear that he's going nowhere.

He honestly said that?

Well, it's looking like we'll be facing either Rangers, Hibs or QoS in the play-off, and possibly without Scott McDonald after his dumb as fuck red card today.

Fuck, especially if it's the h**s we're playing. You can bet the authorities will do all they can to give them as much help as possible.

Fucking hell, does that mean a one match suspension? Or will it be more than that?

Yeah, it doesn't sound like we deserve much from this game to be honest.

Then Keevins announces that Accies are ahead only to quickly correct himself, the doddery auld cunt! He probably did that on purpose! It sounds like both of them want us down to be honest. And now St Mirren equalise. Looks like it's the playoffs for us.

Is anyone listening to Archie & Shug on the BBC commentary? What the fuck are they going about? They're talking as if it's all a foregone conclusion that we're in the play-off and that our fans are stupid for celebrating the goal!

A dodgy penalty by the sounds of it. Still, I'll happily take that!

Does anyone know if there's a direct radio link to this game rather than the open all mics offering from the BBC?

Wouldn't mind seeing him brought in if the worst happens and we go down.

You can't blame him really. I wouldn't be rushing to tie myself to a club for three years when there's a chance i'd be spending those three years outwith the SPFL.

That's a pretty decent deal, especially considering if we win this weekend it's all to play for again.

If we win this game it's very much game on. From looking at being nine points behind them we could see ourselves three points behind them. If the players aren't up for this game, then there really is no hope for them.

Well, I think that your line of thinking is way off. I'd like to believe most of our support would find one of their mates saying something racist to be offensive, and they would be just as offended if the abuse was Islamophobic. Why you're even arguing this point is mind boggling.

You think that someone who is offended by racism is "obviously very easily offended"? Seriously?

To be fair it wasn't just abuse, was it? It was racism. The authorities should have been in a position to deal with it in my opinion.

If there were no police or stewards around I'm not sure there's much else he could have done, is there?
