Isn't that good for us or are you anticipating the pressure being lifted from them?


I've got nothing to back this up but I feel teams with nothing to play for usually come out and play quite well as there's absolutely no pressure on them to get the points etc. But you can usually tell in games like them that they do look like they've taken the foot off the gas. In ICT's case, if they are confirmed relegated before the game at Dens then they might perhaps play a weakened side with kids gearing up for the next season or they'll play their full strength team to regain back pride. Obviously it might not come down to that and they could perhaps be needing a win that night to leap frog us.

Imagine being worried that ICT could take points off you :lol: We couldn't fight our way out of a wet paper bag just now. Easy wins coming up for Hamilton, Dundee, Killie and Well.

Gonnae surprise us aw and beat Hamoten on Saturday?

According to Richie's sums there are still 12 points up for grabs. Any points you can take from anywhere would actually mean a lot to me.

That result earlier probably scuppered any chance of Accies finishing above 9th so it could be between Killie and yourselves on who are the cream of the crud unless either Dundee or Motherwell can pull a few results out of the hat from the remaining games.

Week 34 update-Not much change in the points needed. Killie now arithmetically safe from bottom spot and in 1000 simulations of the rest of the season not once did County finish bottom either.

Door not quite shut on ICT yet but wins for Hamilton, Dundee and Motherwell next week will finish them.

Some turnaround for the Dees who are almost home and hosed, with Hamilton to play Motherwell and Motherwell to play Inverness. As such, with County's superior goal difference, there isn't a scenario outside nonsensical GD swings where both Hamilton and Motherwell can make up the 7 points to County so they are now safe. Inverness still overwhelming favourites to go down but gave themselves a sniff with a win today.

edit: Hamilton's GD advantage over Motherwell plus the fact they play the HTH at home accounts for the difference in %

Pretty clear cut from here on in.

Indeed. Trap-door-dodging desperation means some fechting is still on the cards at least for Tuesday & Wednesday nights. 

 

And who's next to join the 100% Club? 

County's hopes of winning, probably another twice, to beat Killie to No.7 spot seem a bit far fetched as Kilmarnock have been more convincing recently.
