My personal Opinion - Hamilton
Like to see them Perform on grass week in week out
Motherwell in my opinion. Due a badseason and will think that relegation is not a possibility. It is, trust me.

I think Hibs Inverness Accies and St Mirren will battle to avoid the drop
Who are Inverness Accies?
who cares? does not concern us for another 9 months or so.

From what I saw on Wednesday night I think Hibs are a decent bet. Them or Inverness. I think Falkirk and St Mirren have improved just enough.
it will be close but im saying hamilton.
hope its inverness though

Hibs are still something like 50-1 for the drop, and its not as if they've never been papped down here before..
Hoping for Killie though, so that their financial problems will turn them into even more of a diddy side, elevating us into mid-table.
If we're still here.

Happy days for me Killie down Ayr up
Probably Hamilton. They're only a train journey away from where I live in glasgow - gutted they got promoted!

I think Hamilton they wont last 42 seconds but that was longer than derby
Anybody between Killie, St. Mirren, ICT or maybe Falkirk for me. No great regular goalscorers in their teams. Hamilton could go down as well, but they've got a very good young team who can only improve and should have a regular goal threat in Offiong.

Hibernian are really in rock crisis. I know that pre-season results don't really mean anything and are mainly about getting players match fit and creating a good atmosphere among the players and management. However the fact that Hibs haven't even scored a single goal and that Mixu has just gone public declaring that eight or nine players aren't good enough just before their SPL season kicks off is really dubious. This will probably mean that Hibs will panic buy and Mixu could get bitten in his big fat Finnish backside if his new signings don't make the grade and Hibs could find themselves in serious trouble.
I don't think Hibs will go down but think that they'll be down in the bottom six this season. No-one can tell how good (or bad) Hamilton Accies will do but they toasted this division last year and have some quality players to help them stay up. Falkirk normally get tipped for the drop but as much as it pains me to say, they are good establised SPL club now which is excellently run and they have a very good side that plays good attacking football, so they'll be fine infact i would even say that they'll break into the top six this year. Kilmarnock will also be in the bottom six and could be in the relegation battle but i think they'll have enough to stay up and i hope they do otherwise they could be buggered financially if they go down.
Overall it's between two sides for me and they are Inverness and St Mirren. Inverness don't have great attacking options and St Mirren don't seem to score enough goals and the additions of Wyness and Brighton aren't going to help their cause one bit imo.

Billy Reid and Gus McPherson will dig out enough results to keep their respective sides up.
Kilmarnock will struggle for goals but have a decent midfield/defence. It might be a season too far for ICT. It'll definitely be one of those four. Hibs were abysmal against us and might be worth an outside punt but they've probably got too much going forward (ironic I know

) to go down.

On a personal basis - any from St. Mirren, Killie, Falkirk or Dundee Utd.
Hamilton will have to cope without the pitch and officials that can be bullied into disallowing a goal a good 3 minutes after awarding it - they will struggle.
Motherwell could be dark horses (for relegation)
ICT will hump enough decent teams to stay well clear of the dogfight.

Especially when playing the old firm - ask Craig Levein. Oh and you forgot to mention the video evidence which proved the ref was right but which no one but Hamilton officials were allowed to see!
Me, I fancy Killie to come down. St Mirren, Hamilton, Hibs, ICT making up four of the rest of the bottom six with the final place capable of being anyone of the rest except the old squirm.
Apart from the old firm, I would fancy Hearts, Dundee United Aberdeen and either Falkirk or Motherwell for the top six.

Kilmarnock. Shit team, shit support (Hmm.. that sounds familiar).
Time for them to come down.

Dundee United for obvious reasons.
Apart from that the team closest to us, for short away trips.
I want Hamilton to do well because if they do it gives the SPL no chance of laughing at us when we say theres not much between us and the SPL.

I was wondering that - we would certainly throw a spanner in the works if we won the league (yes, I know).
If Motherwell look to be certs for the drop,expect an EGM to expand the league and save their hides once again.
Probably Hamilton.
Their manager wears his trousers up to his ocksters, lacks self-belief, and is a stranger to the truth.
Not a good combination.

Killie are in trouble methinks. If Hearts fail to keep hold of their manager for more then 5 minutes, they'll struggle too.

Hamilton had a better away record than they're home, go figure

.
Anyway I think Accies will have enough to stay up, Think it'll be between ICT, Killie and St Mirren. Hope St mirren finish bottom.

Its either going to be Inverness (tinks) Caley, Killie or St Mirrien. am not bothered who will go down but any of them will do me fine, I think Hamilton might stay up though
I think Killie will go down.
I really hope they do as well as I always enjoy our trips to Rugby Park. They would be a good addition to the Division in terms of crowd size as well.

I think Accies will. I hope they can do well, but I think they'll be the ones to take the drop.
Can see Killie, St Mirren and ICT being roundabout, but should be ok. Falkirk won't be anywhere near it.
I would however love it if Hearts came down. That would be hilarious.

IMHO i think anyone except the following could go down:
Celtic
Rangers
Aberdeen
Dundee United
Hibs
Motherwell.
I really hope Hearts come down though.

Don't think Hibs will make the top 6, unfortunately as much as it pains me to say it I think Falkirk will.
