The Exciting Race for the Premiership Playoffs

[LIVIFOREVER]

We're resting up players just now too though so we should be physically well prepared for our 2 semi final games. Mental toughness is different though but our players and manager have held up well on that score up till now, they always bounced back from a defeat and held their nerve when Utd had a wee run putting pressure on us.

Last season Utd had the Challenge cup games too and seemed to burn out by the time they reached the final game against Accies, if we make it that far I think we'll be fine. Absolutely no pressure on them having already exceeded everyone expectation.

Tiredness will play a factor, that's why it's vitally important to finish second as opposed 3rd or 4th.  Even at that, the year we got to the final after finishing 2nd we were knackered at Killie,  and I would also say very tired in the home leg which we somehow managed to win.

Just line ‘em up please and we’ll smash them tae f**k. Come on ye Pars!

Me leaving this thread until next season...

Alrighty, let's be fucking having you then you c***s, yaaaaaaaaaaaas!

Not sure why a gormless, midtable rabble like Dundee United are being included in this discussion tbh. 

We'll be effortlessly swording Dundee on their horrible midden in the final. 

This has aged just beautifully.

I am aware of that but I feel it would devalue the poll to indulge in fantasy and include ICT and Falkirk.

lol

Morton don't actually play Dunfermline again, having already racked up eight points from them in the league. Looks like you'll need another straw to clutch at then to avoid your inevitable 6th place finish. 

lol

I'm still keeping my rose tinted optimistic glasses on. in the past 6 games we've caught up 8 points on United and Morton. 7 on queens and 3 on the pars and we top the form league table. next two games against queens and pars are massive. win both and we are right in it.

[Szamo's_Ammo]

Well done to the 27%.

So we have two trips to Inverness, Dingwall, Dumfries, Ayr, Dundee and Glasgow next season? No trip to Livingston which means the ground furthest from a pub is Falkirk?

Oooft, what a tough league it's going to be next season. We could easily finish 5th or 6th, without being absolutely shite.

It's fine: I'm sure you'll manage.

[Bairnardo]

I hope someone Falkirks it next season. Would really like to be on the correct end of one of those relegation threads.

Will download a few dozen Portillo pics in anticipation

Everyone who predicted Livingston to win the playoffs in the poll were entered into a prize draw to become the next Greenock Morton manager.

Congratulations @Young gun

If Young gun is too busy I’d be happy to step in, though I’m on the Dundee Utd managerial rota for October to Mid-November.

This could work.

We’ll get you a proper keeper, an actual centre half, a striker who is not a bellend and the 50/50 half time draw winner gets to boot Jackie Macnamara in the baws.

MUGA! MUGA!

We've got a pub in the South Stand...probably less than a minutes walk from the away end

I didn't even try that bar this season having been knocked back it from the previous season, being told it was home fans only. I accept that may have had something to do with me being a reprobate whose face stewards didn't like rather than away fans actually not being allowed.
