The Top Six Crunch


Recommended Posts

I've had a quick look at the form table and predicted results for the last 3 rounds and it leaves me with a table looking like this at the split:

 

4th Livi 43

5th Hibs 41

6th County 40

7th-10th Dundee United, Motherwell, St Mirren and Aberdeen each with 39 points.

 

I certainly think the last 3 fixtures are a big ask for County, but we are one of THE form teams from Hearts down and Aberdeen are one of the worst. I feel a bit like we're "due something" against Hearts, and at home we have a chance. 4 points from those 2 without taking anything from Celtic (never say never wish us against them though!) might see us clinch top 6.

We need to stay on brand here, amended your comment accordingly :D

Eh, we play Livingston in our final game pre split. Won't matter ofcourse since we are absolutely pish and are fighting to avoid the Play off spot now.

Cheers - edited. Thanks 

I was bound to get something wrong - too many words!

Dundee Utd the big (and only) winners today and now look all but assured of a top six berth. Nightmare day for the other five clubs we thought were involved.
LivI and County with expected houndings away at the top three.
Really, really terrible results for Hibs, St Mirren and Motherwell.
Aberdeen couldn’t, could they?

If we win our next two (big if-both eminently lose-able and i'd take neither for granted) we'd need any three of Motherwell, St Mirren, Livingston and Hibs to fail to win both their games (so long as hibs don't win a game by four or five). Ir any two of them fail to win both and Utd don't win either. At least one of them won't win both. 

I reckon 70% chance if we win both. So we probably won't. 

Would you cry if we did?

Just realised that it is possible for every team to win one of these fixtures and lose the other one.  I’d settle for that.

The goal difference is as good as a point over some teams. Especially as we'd be at worse -1 if we win both!
