Not sure where Motherwell will be come split or by end of season but we'll be above Dundee, St Johnstone, Ross County and Livingston at least.  

 

Aberdeen or Hibs or both is the question.  

Bold call.

We'd totally revamped our squad in January 19 and although it took until March before we turned the corner in terms of results we were already looking coherent on the pitch by the end of February.

Absolutely no doubt in my mind it's done. Without wishing to get in there and make it about us, to my mind, our 18-19 team has to be one of the worst teams to stay up in this league.

This is where we were after 28 games then.

Even that St Mirren team had more points than Livi have, and we had two teams within closer reach above us.

Livingston are done.

Oh and yeah Livi are done!

Aberdeen Morton final, IMO. Neil Warnock would finally start caring about the outcome of an Aberdeen game 👀

Not what the sponsors want, but the showpiece at hampden on 25th may will be much richer for it.

The play-off matches are scheduled for Thursday 23rd and Sunday26th of May, and the cup final is set for Saturday 25th of May. Although these dates may be subject to change, I doubt Aberdeen will advance to the cup final.

I'd be content with finishing 11th in the league, securing victory in the play-offs, and clinching the Scottish Cup!

I see what you've done there. You've seized on my loose wording of 'final' to imply you'll get to the FA cup final.

You cheeky monkey.

There’s additional layers. You see we’re in the unlikely position in February where Morton and Aberdeen could compete in both the playoff final and the Scottish cup final. 

I've taken this unlikely scenario and thrown it right back in your face through your sloppiness. 

Albeit, you could just say something about games in hand and win the internet. But I’ve had my moment.

That is fucking mind blowing, tbf. The most box office long weekend of football that the Scottish game has ever delivered.

If you offered me winning the Scottish cup and losing the playoff, both to Morton. I’d probably take it tbh.
