sergie's no1 fan Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Amazing to look at the table back then. Raith have had one mighty collapse.They do have us and Ayr to play though, 1 more win should do it for us but you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paco Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Anyone else still thinking we won't go down? We completely deserve to be in the relegation spots, the only real surprise is how long it took. Can we react? I highly doubt it. Must win on Saturday or we're definitely finishing in the bottom two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irvine_buddie Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Don't think we're safe yet but not many would bet against it in current form. Scored 34 in 16 games since all the transfers in January and only lost to Celtic and Dundee Utd in the cup and to Raith in the League. In the 21 league games before that we'd only scored 19 goals and had -19 GD! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsimButtHitsASix Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I am glad the way the table has went in recent weeks. It will make both our wonderful play off victory and St. Mirren's collapse and relegation all the more pleasing... ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingscot Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I think there will be twists until the end of the season. Dundee United have struggled away and play Ayr, Morton on a poor run are at Starks. Not beyond the realms that they get a result and we don't at Falkirk.

Raith have two get out of jail cards in playing both Ayr and St Mirren, whereas St Mirren and Ayr have one. The way St Mirrens form is tho, they could lose their get out of jail card and still have enough. Id be surprised tho if Raith arent one of the bottom 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not beyond the realms that they get a result and we don't at Falkirk. I'm dreading another perfect storm Saturday like a few weeks ago when we lost at home to Ayr and everyone else won. Then our arses would be twitching again...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djchapsticks Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Provided we can beat Raith at home, one more win will do it for us. I'd rather not be going into that game in a state of pressure though. I don't think for a minute the players will take their foot off the gas but we have to be wary of accepting the universal praise of others and believing in our own hype. There's still a shit load of work to be done here. We could just as quickly slide back into a predicament a 7pm on Saturday where we're chasing rather that holding others off. With 3 games to go that's a place we must avoid at all costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG BEN Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 I'd rather we go down automatically than have to endure an extra couple of matches of the torture we've been serving up. Don't talk pish. If you win the play off, the relief it would bring would make it feel like a cup final. If you didn't celebrate that after a poor season, the games up for you. Not saying you should be happy with the overall season though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG BEN Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Ayr United are dross and would not be missed. I would miss them. Love an away day at Ayr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG BEN Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 I'd be content for us to take the Ayr boaby if it didn't affect our finishing place and assisted in sending St Mirren down. However I don't think second place will be decided until the last game of the season. Would you not miss the derby? I would. Would rather we both met in the top league though. Renfrewshire derbies are one of the games I get most excited about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renfrewshire derbies are one of the games I get most excited about The derby has lost its intensity imo. It used to be a far bigger deal back in the 90s with much bigger crowds. I'd like to see you lot spend a year or two in the seaside leagues to teach you some humility. However it's all irrelevant as you'll stay up now.

Only Hibs fans appear to be mainly cretins. Their cup win has went to their heads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
