That's cause we're seemingly the only team in the league who realise that you're fucking Livi and Livi are pish.

Unsure why this hasn't dawned on the rest of the league yet tbh

Yep all the more reason Hoppy should get MoTY, not only has he convinced our players they can do it, every other team's players has believed him too. What a manager.

I'd agree with that tbh, he's an excellent manager and a very good tactician. he's taken a squad of average champ/league 1 players and gotten more than the sum of their parts out of them.

Will be very difficult to replace when he goes to a real team.

We would get pumped at Dunfermline

We haven't beaten United by more than one goal since January 2004.

[Stellaboz]

I'd take any kind of win against Utd. It's about fcking time.

[D.A.F.C]

Fancy our chances tbh. We can out football and out battle livvy. Well overdue a win against United.

We are just keeping our powder (very) dry until the playoffs..... (lulling everyone into the misapprehension that we are utterly fucking garbage); where we'll unleash Hell upon whoever gets in the way of our relentless and unstoppable march to the top table....

All part of Csaba the Great's grand plan.

Nae c**t in their right mind takes us seriously after that....and as such our lethal efficiency will come as a nasty surprise to our playoff opponents.

ETA - Don't tell anyone.

Looks like there will be a few of the play off games live on TV at least:

Think that works out quite well for us tbh. Whoever gets to the final will have 6 days in between which should be plenty of time for professional footballers to be ready to go again. Whoever gets through the QF though will be playing their 3rd game in 6 days against Livi.

Dunfermline/United only having two days before playing Livi puts the West Lothian outfit in a strong position.

The Premiership finishes on 12 May and the second leg of the semi final is on 11 May so an extra day for the Championship team to prepare. No "tired" excuses.

[HoBNob]

Those are absolutely shite dates. 

[Black and White Tragic]

These dates have left me hoping for 4th so I at least get to the Tuesday game. Agreed to work Friday night only yesterday so I'm totally pissed off.

[Stellaboz]

Echoing Grant's sentiments, those dates can f**k off. Football should be Wednesday/Tuesday and Saturday. f**k off with this Shite. Seething.

[Afro]

The prospect of two games on a Monday and a Friday makes my heart sink a little. Football should be on a Tuesday and a Saturday.

How much money do the clubs make from the play-offs being televised? I’m assuming it’s not separate from the main deal and as such it probably amounts to f**k all.

[parsforlife]

I don't mind Friday night games, especially as the teams are fairly close to each other. Scheduling Monday games should be a criminal offence and scheduling a game on a Thursday is made up nonsense (I have forgiven the Sunday due to Scottish cup conflict but it's still piss poor)

[Poet of the Macabre]

What a bunch of moaning c***s 

[andylivi1]

I really dont care when they are, I’m delighted to be in them and will be at them regardless of what dates they are.
