weeyin Posted April 28 Report Share Posted April 28 Sometimes I think I must be looking at the wrong league table, because my copy has us sitting in 7th with Ross County having to score 8 points more than us to overtake. I know it's been a poor season, but the league table doesn't lie, and we are at the very least, equal best of a bad bunch. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally as we are level with St mirren we should be aiming for 6th!.........DOH!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if we pick up a point in Dundee it'll be 8 with 9 to play for. I can't see that getting turned round. OK, might not be safe mathematically on Saturday at 5 pm, but hopefully all but ! This had crossed my mind too - that - Hearts might win. Hopefully we'll do it on our own and we won't need anyone else to do us a favour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weeyin Posted April 29 Report Share Posted April 29 If we win, I don't care what any other teams are doing. It's just another step closer to 7th spot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, 7th should be the target, to get the maximum prize money we can get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weeyin Posted April 29 Report Share Posted April 29 1 hour ago, wellgirl said: You're completely right but nothing wrong with teams below us doing us a favour either I'm just thinking more about the players' mentality. When you're a professional sports person, it's much easier to be playing to win something (like top of our split) than playing to avoid a loss. Of course, as fans, we don't have to worry about that so can also hope other teams do us a favour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmcalpin Posted May 1 Report Share Posted May 1 The Official site reports " no new injuries" ahead of the game, but no mention of Gordon or Maswanise. I really hope Gordon makes it as, if he doesn't, we'll struggle to field a back 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmcalpin Posted May 2 Report Share Posted May 2 I wouldn't be against that as long as his wages were commensurate with being a squad player. Hopefully we'll sign some better quality this summer, but we'll still need squad players. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewelllfan Posted May 2 Report Share Posted May 2 I can see us renewing Watt, Paton and Casey tbh but that wouldn't leave much much room to bring players in even with a few moving on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can take care of our part and get 3 points from this game but also see St Johnstone beat Killie, then we can celebrate securing premier status for another year, since the following week sees Killie V Dundee which means that at least one of them will finish below us.
