I'm putting myself forward for a seat on Ketts' I Told You So parade.

Haha aye, I was worried I came across a bit dour about folk enjoying a brilliant individual turnaround but I think it's just my natural pessimism means I'd be too scared of St Johnstone pipping us to a completely inconsequential 9th place finish on the last day to be properly giving it out.

I do think the Bair thing is definitely the biggest unqualified success of our season and he's one of my favourite players in years but I find some of the hubris from our fans on twitter a bit odd. If he was firing us to 3rd and St Johnstone were going down I'd understand a "let's all laugh at St Johnstone" vibe but we'll probably end up finishing 9th and 10th together.

I'd be surprised if he doesn't get at least 2 post-split to take him to 15 for the season. I'm desperate for him to get to 16 and outscore Moult's best ever season just to have it as a weird stat to bring up every so often.

Is that not about what we got for Scott from Hull? Scott was 4 or 5 years younger and probably looked a more natural footballer but never came anywhere close to the sort of form Theo has shown since Christmas. Unless it's the only concrete offer we get or Bair has indicated he 100% wants away I don't think we have much incentive to accept something like that now rather than hold out for £1m+ in Summer.

Main went there in January so Vale is probably the comparison. Maybe Shaw if you count him as a signing/footballer.

Bair, Easton, and Goss () putting six past The Farmers >>

Since the Capt pointed it out the other day I can't figure out if Kettlewell keeping us up with this gang of centrebacks for two seasons in a row makes him a genius or if the fact he hasn't signed any new centrebacks is a sackable offence.

6 points behind St Mirren. I think this might go the wire.

If it's still in the balance on the last day we're going to see some all time lying down from St Mirren at Parkhead and Hearts at home to Rangers.

I know it has no bearing on his performances as an actual defender but it'll be a while longer after Ibrox before I have anything bad to say about Dan Casey.

Get Regan Charles-Cook in IMO

Doesn't Tommy Wright usually do it?

How do folk feel about Blaney? I still think all our CBs are much of a muchness but it probably makes sense to give him and Casey a run together in the last 5 given they'll presumably be here next season. He definitely "looks" like a footballer and having someone that can score screamers is always a plus.

It's probably the right decision but I can't really imagine us without Bevis.

A guy behind me hit out with "too late, Stuart" when Miller went off for Shaw which I imagine is a fairly niche opinion.

I don't think Halliday is going to do btw. He's obviously only played in fits and starts and might be better after a full pre-season but it seems unlikely at his age. Hopefully we can get shot of him.

If we're not going to make Top Six then I at least hope a few of our ex-players nick Europe. Good luck Liam Polworth and Rickie Lamie!

He's too nice to do that

I can see Bair in somewhere like Belgium or Holland. Partly just as North American players seem more likely to go to the continent than British ones but I'm also not convinced he'd do all that well in the Championship. Seems likely he'd end up with another nasty Steven MacLean type who just wants to shout and shells balls at his head.

I'm not that confident about our end of the bargain but if does sound very Hibs to miss out on top 6 because of Sam Nicholson, Andy Halliday or Blair Spittal

Would just like to mention the fact we've very generously provided Aberdeen with 7 points this season.

I was at the Alloa game but have no recollection of Wells tbh. Is he a winger?

You must be one of those Well Society Maoists I've heard about
