Cagey Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 St Mirren get another dodgy penalty. That's at least 4 points they shouldn't have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We must ensure there is no hangover from Sunday against Accies and put them to the sword. Rangers and Tommy’s Killie could do us a wee favour. Less confident about the latter!

Templar Saint Posted March 3, 2021 Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 Not to fussed this year about top six. With no spectators then the only additional income is place money . The difference between 6th and 7th last year was £130,000. As others have said out of that there would be bonuses to be paid to the playing staff and management so probably not such a big difference in the end. Get 7th and put The Arabs back in their place as second top team in Tayside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
south inch Posted March 3, 2021 Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 Mathematically and on normal form we can still make top 6. We have 2 winnable home games and St Mirren 2 losses. You would not expect the Arabs to get more than 4 points from their last 2 games. If we did make top 6 we could pass Livi and finish 5th and is there not the chance of 5 European spots next season? But, will Rangers* throw a couple of points so they can rub Celtic's nose in the smelly stuff and win the title at Parkhead? Equally, would Celtic chuck 3 points towards the Arabs to avoid that humiliation? Johnny B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say if they win and celtic drop points then the tile is won. Celtic stil have second place and a champions league slot to wrap up, mathematically Hibs can still catch them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 Livingston don't even need to get a point to finish above us, and we'd probably have to have a 4/5 goal GD improvement, so can't see it. Need to win both games left to stand any chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Livi lost their 3 remaining games and we won our 2 it is not beyond the bounds of possibility that we could make up the - 8 goal difference. Not very likely though and as you say we should concentrate on winning our games and see where it takes us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linky Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 We need to win both obviously. I can't see Dundee Utd winning either of their matches. St. Mirren won't win the next one, and it may come down the Hamilton one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

south inch Posted March 6, 2021 Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 3 steps to top 6. 1. Celtic at least draw with United tomorrow. 2. St Mirren don't win at Hamilton next Saturday. 3. We win against Ross County. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
