RossBFaeDundee Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 Thankfully the Premiership play-off side won't get relegated this season. We might be able to slither back up in one season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BucksburnDandy Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 I've got an absolutely awful feeling about this now. I think there's a very decent chance we're losing to St Johnstone next weekend - they can, at least, score goals now. If they move to within two points of us, then we're fucked and relying on Dundee to have chucked it by the time we play them. We just look absolutely terrible, proper whiffs of Butcher at Hibs or Yogi at Raith about us. Based on what I saw of Arbroath on Friday, I wouldn't fancy going two games against them, tbh. I think the big issue is the mood around the club. The Ross/Kearney survival years, we'd been shite all season but the fans and the players rallied. There was a real movement. This, on the other hand, is fucking dismal and there's no energy anywhere. Any bookies offering a market on places in the league?Worryingly, you can transpose Aberdeen into St Mirren and the similar managerial references.There is no energy around Pittodrie, we barely look like scoring a goal unless we get a penalty and we are very soft at the back.The fans are very flat and can all see that we are in severe trouble. There would be energy there, if we could actually take the lead and hold it for a little while. The issue is we cannot do that.We are in real trouble. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True Saintee Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 If I'm a St Mirren or Aberdeen fan I would be very happily backing my team at those prices. That way you either win your bet or finish outside the bottom 2. There is no such angle as a St Johnstone fan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Returns £130 or I lose £20 and we avoid the playoff. Edited April 25, 2022 by Arch Stanton 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killie have won 20 games this season and yet we have mostly been horrifyingly shite and unenjoyable to watch. The only good bits have been visiting a couple of grounds I hadn't been to before, beating Ayr on their own patch twice, and then winning a league title with a last minute goal. That sounds like a quality season tbf. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Posted May 7, 2022 Author Share Posted May 7, 2022 There’s the bottom two for 2022 confirmed then, with a couple of games to go. It looked likely from about February, and there was no great turnarounds or weird collapses big enough to get anyone else involved. To the surprise of no one, the worst two teams in the league have finished 11th and 12th.Quite the fall from grace by the Saintees, from arguably the greatest ever season by a Scottish club to the relegation playoff in under 12 months. A couple of bizarre transfer windows seems to be the main reason for their demise. They’ll need to win a tricky two legged tie against Arbroath or Inverness to stay in the league. Dundee down with a whimper. They seem to have really taken that club 12 moniker they got in 2012 to heart, since then they’ve finished 12th three times in the ten years. Fellow yo-yo club Hearts are the only other club to have finished there more than once in that timeframe. The Dee winning two games in a row under McPake, then sacking him in February and appointing McGhee, then being relegated in a May without winning another game is absolute peak Dundee banter. Cove and Greenock awaits next season, dark times. No doubt they’ll be back up in a few years, to finish 12th again. We will get this thread going again in October for the 2023 relegation jamboree. Next years cast yet to be revealed. McInnes’ Kilmarnock? Goodwins’ Aberdeen? Robinson’s St Mirren? Campbell’s Arbroath? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dezz Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Has Hibs utter ineptitude breathed a bit of life back into the 11th/12th place fight? Are Aberdeen in any way capable of wining by 2 or 3 clear goals tonight to make it an interesting last day on Saturday? My gut (and the Dons being shite) tells me no but given how weird this season has been I guess there’s always a small chance we could be looking at a 3 point gap with a couple of goals in it going into the last day.That’d be exciting…until St Johnstone also beat Hibs easily. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
