Raith will give us a game, but I expect we'll have too much. 2-1. Hendry to give Raith the lead at around 55 minutes to give them hope before we score twice and announce we've signed him as soon as the game is over.

Yeah, there's every chance the last game of the season decides who gets the final European spot. I'm nervous.

I think he said La Vita, I think he read the messed up team sheet that had Rafa on it and still got mixed up

Nisbet making it is a surprise, Shankland is playing better than he is at the moment, and Griffiths is just a better player in general. Shame for Turnbull, but as has already been said, he'd be competing with Armstrong/McGinn/Christie for the attacking mid role and he's not as good as those 3. Happy to see Adams there, and Liam Kelly can feel a little hard done by. Hanley & Hendry coming in makes it interesting, has Clarke realised that McTominay looks phenomenal in midfield at the moment as is looking at every option to get him in there?

No idea how Boyle wasn't sent off last week. Could have happened 3 times. If we get a good ref, 2-0 Livi. If we get Beaton/Aitkin, 2-0 Hibs.

This squad will probably be bigger than most, so there's definitely a chance of a surprise. Turnbull will make it. Gilmour wont. I'd like to see Rooney in the squad, but that's pretty much entirely based on his cup final performance. I'd love to see Che Adams in the squad but I think that's unlikely.

Hahaha he did? I can see why he'd think that if he only watched the first 15 minutes of the second half, but on the piece we were easily the better team.

Yeah, I can't blame Robbo for moving on. It would be a shame if there was a fight behind the scenes that led to it, but signing a PCA with another team that'll give him the biggest contract of his career isn't something we can fight against. It's happened with Halkett, Gallagher, Lamie, and others over the past couple of years, and it'll keep happening. If he moves on, good luck to him.

JET's been seen running a couple of times in this game. Am I dreaming?

It would be a massive disappointment to f**k up the top 6 from where we were. I've still got half an eye on Europe, anything less than 5th would be a disappointing end. Accies are fighting for their lives, and over the last couple of seasons then Accies have shown that they're more than capable of getting a result against us. I'd take a point right now.

We've only been in the league for 3 years, but Livi must be close.

Tbf it was last summer too. We brought in Lokotsch, Poplatnik, Reilly, JET and Stokes to try and fill that gap, and our now clearly #1 striker is Scott Robinson. Dykes is not an easy man to replace.

It is though? We might not have picked up a point last night, but we're clearly doing something right. Rangers have scored in every single game they've played this season (including Europe) other than Almondvale earlier in the season, and we were 5 minutes away from keeping them out twice. Unfortunately we just didn't manage to get there, but we've demonstrated that our defensive structure is excellent for the resources we have. Completely agree with you about Lawson. I really like him as a player, but he'll be MOTM one week and then useless the next.

Grant Macintosh appearing on football focus is a sign. We can't lose tomorrow now.

"Who is St Johnstone? f**k off St Johnstone" was amazing, oan yerself Manu.

As long as they don't come sniffing around big Davie Martindale then I'll be happy. Lampard would be a laugh just for the narrative, and possible. Benitez would be entertaining if they could pull it off. Guarantee they'll hire Jack Ross.

ATS should be absolutely nowhere near the cup final starting team. Stryjek Devlin Ambrose Guthrie Serrano Bartley Holt Mullin Pittman Sibbald Robbo

Yeah, I was surprised to see Max dropped today. Maybe a small injury? McCrorie had a decent game though, can't blame him for the goal and made a couple of other decent saves. St Mirren were the better team today but the conditions were honking and I'm delighted with the point. Only way we're not making top 6 now is if Dundee Utd turn into a wonderteam overnight. JET was shocking and deserved to be shouted at. Kabia must be pushing for a starting place on that left wing. Forrest is half the player who started the season with us. Efe makes us better at the back. Ah well, onto the final. Saints must be favourites at this point, but at least we stopped the rot before it.

I thought Bartley mad a great game tbf. Sibbald was ok. Literally everyone else was awful. JET did nothing after coming on. Mullin didn't do anything other than dead balls, and they weren't good. Holt just misplaced pass after pass. MOTM was Shankland by a mile, his pressing made it difficult and we couldn't handle him.

Back on the saddle, 2-0 Livi.

Serrano did a much better job at LW than I expected. I could see him staying there and Longridge/Guthrie coming in. Other than that, Lawson for JET is a possibility. He had a great game on Tuesday, would be a shame if he was dropped but Marv/Holt deserve the CM spots.

To be fair his performance isn't too bad, it's the moaning at his team mates for his mistakes that's questionable. I'm being nit picky though, it's been a great performance, even though Aberdeen have been the better team this half.

Utterly dominant. Could've been more. What a cross from Mullin for the 2nd. Efe's looked comfortable af. Lawson's been phenomenal. Can't say I'm impressed with Longridge so far. He overplayed a pass to Serrano and blamed him, and he's just blamed JET for his booking.

Yeah you're right. The reason we've been so comfortable in the Premiership and we're undefeated in 11 is entirely because Livi are clearly splashing piles and piles of cash and are just outspending the league with their ill-gotten gains.

There could've been 4 cards for diving today, at least we've finally got one.
