Les Westander of County Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 Who will get the best "Not Fair" Bleating Rights, as some of us get fewer Home fixtures than others? How will it all end - who goes down, who contends a play-off and do they stay up, and who is Best Of The Rest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pettywulliegrew-2 Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 After next week we will have played 16 home 17 away........so to have 19 home and away over the 38 game season...we should have 3 home and 2 away in the split fixtures However we have already played Accies/Ict/Dundee twice at FP And only played Ross Cty/Killie once......so to balance that up playing all bottom six both home and away( for us) .......would mean we would have played 18 home and 20 away Think we were predicted a top six finish (ha ha ha) by the SPFL (which would have given us 18 homes away).......so the fixtures are going to be unbalanced some where along the line and can possibly see some teams playing the same team home or away 3 times and yes the bitching about unequal home n away games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AR851903 Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 Impossible to call just now I'd sayTwo massive games next week with the bottom 4 playing each other. After Hibs' capitulation in 2014, I wouldn't say anyone is safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz FFC Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 For the love of God don't let Motherwell and Killie be in the playoff place. Ross C and Inverness can f**k right off too.

accies1874 Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Lazily copy and pasted from my post in the Top 6 thread:While we should be playing County, Inverness and Killie away, we're due an extra home game against one of them. We'll have only played 16 home games compared to 17 away come the split. I'd fancy our chances at Inverness more than the other two, and we've looked pretty good against County at home. We've also not beaten Killie at home since 2010 - going so far back that it was Dougie Imrie's first goal for us! I know it depends on the others' fixtures (that I have no clue about), but County at home is certainly our best hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Inverness look abysmal and destined for the drop, but the split can throw up any surprises. We have a decent record post-split too; a completely pointless stat, but we've won 13 of our 25 games after the split, losing 7 and drawing 5.

RossDee01 Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 We should play Inverness, Ross County and Motherwell at home but that would leave us with 20 home games for the season I believe. Thinking that we'll play Motherwell away again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossDee01 Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Killie are pretty much safe imo, and I think Motherwell will be okay as well. ICT don't look like getting off that bottom spot, so the play-off will be between Hamilton and ourselves I think. At least I'll get an extra game out of my season ticket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting logic. The team above Utd and Morton are not likely to beat 1 of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiG Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 If this was a "normal" fixture card we would have County, Dundee and Killie away with Motherwell and Hamilton at home. I wouldn't be surprised to see us play County away in the midweek round after the split (it would make sense geographically anyway). Without any evidence for any of this I think we'll play Dundee (A), Hamilton (H), Killie (A), County (A) and Motherwell (H). We're going down, that is looking more and more certain with each passing week but if / when we are relegated I hope it's before we play County.

At least I'll get an extra game out of my season ticket Admire your optimism on our behalf ! If we win v ICT on Saturday then I do believe we will avoid automatic relegation. But from what I hear Moult might be missing again. You going to lose your best player and top striker - these are not the games for it to happen. We were rank rotten v Thistle on Saturday. Improved marginally in the 2nd half but by then Thistle should have been out of sight. A lot rests on this Saturday for the 4 bottom 6 sides playing one another. Post split we should have 3 home games but that is up to SPFL and would not surprise me if we were shafted. But if it comes to pass 4 home games from remaining 6 may give us an advantage. In saying that we have not won at home for ages. Certainly the play off spot looks likely to go down to the last game in this season as may 12th. Not going to be boring that is for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrelhumper Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Massive game for us on Friday, hopefully 3 points and the same kind of performance as the last time we played Hearts at RP. Kiltie got rested on Saturday, so hopefully he's raring to go on Friday. Big Ajer back available too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamDFC Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 We look dead-set to go down. Probably via United in the playoff spot. It was nice while it lasted. Actually, no it wasn't; it's been fucking shite as we have played some horrible football. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killie will have played 16 home 17 away after Friday's game with Hertz.....they have already played the rest of the bottom 6 twice away, apart from us,so think they will be coming to FP........for 19/19 split....they will have 3 homes then away to someone for a third time .......who would u prefer if this is the case?
