You think Hibs will be in the top six?

A real chance with the next 2 fixtures, however if Hibs fail to win either then obviously a real chance they don't make it either. 

 

Assume if they fail to beat Utd and then win the Derby they'll be top six? 

 

Equally if they beat Utd and then the Arbas don't win their Derby then there's still a chance they sneak in top six? 

 

Who knows at this point to be honest. I'm all for it. None of this European challenge nonsense, the real excitement is in the potato race .

f**k knows if the potato will be top six come 4.45pm on Saturday, but we do know it'll be in our Capital.

Have we ever had an Edinburgh derby hot potato game in recorded hot potato history?

I suspect the “relegation party” that wasn’t (2014-03-30 Hearts 2-Hibs 0) may have been a hot potato game because hearts hadn’t won in ages

If it was then the bottom 6 derby at Easter Road three weeks later would be as well

We will go the whole season tattieless.  Better than Europe imo.

Celtic turn out to the only side in the eventual top 6 who aren’t tattieless. The power of the potato has limits apparently.

The other conspicuous anomaly is that despite propping up the league your hapless neighbours are still on course to be spud free.

Hibs fall in to the bottom six in possession of the hot potato, and promptly leave it in Paisley with St Mirren. 

 

All saints match up this weekend as St Mirren travel to #perthshire hoping for a first win in about 9 months. I might be wrong but I don't think they have a good record in Perth at all - maybe they need the extra motivation of a tatty fixture. I for one can't wait.

A vital hot potato fixture, and relegation six pointer, and in a classic case of Davidson-ball, St Johnstone fail to register a shot on target. Criminal. 

Week 34: St Johnstone (0-1 St Mirren (H))

 

Can call it now that the potato will end the season in Perth as there is no way Saints are beating anybody.

You can never rule out St Johnstone scoring in injury time at Easter Road these days, and the SPFL have lined exactly that fixture up on the last day of the season. This could well be the potato's Helicopter Sunday moment.

A new way to not win games this week, as a late leveller stops Saints leaving the potato in Livingston. 

 

Aberdeen at home tonight . 0-0.

 

Potato now knows it will be with St Johnstone, Aberdeen, Hibs or St Mirren. But it'll be St Johnstone

United have gone the whole season avoiding the hot potato whilst being managed by a potato.

Some achievement.

Proud day for the city of discovery as it finishes 2021/22 as spudless as County Mayo in 1846

Now confirmed, it will be Goodwins current or ex team lifting the tattie - this has a beautiful symmetry about it.
