Lissah has been watching Slattery to much and has out mastered the master!

Surprise surprise. Credit whre its due though he is good at it unlike Slattery. Won them a penalty at Fir Park as well.

I'm in the same boat as long as Celtic beat Hibs we should be fine for 4th but I don't see us winning any of the final 3 games. We might draw 1 but we looked on the beach.

Today was always going to be a huge mountain to climb for us and the result shouldn't have surprised anyone. Once again McGlynn has got the the better of JBA. It was possibly the hardest of our remaining 4 games. 

I think we're on the beach for several reasons and its up to Hibs now how much they want that 4th spot. If we can avoid hammerings in our next 2 games, I'll happily go Easter Road for the final game 3 points ahead of Hibs and not care about the result.

To be fair I can't imagine any player is particularly motivated while playing for 4th and being out the cups. Falkirk are desperate to get into Europe and quite clearly wanted it more than us. I think unless Hibs beat one of the OF they won't pick up the 7 points they need to overtake us.
