At this point.......not so far as I know. However...you seem to be in a position to shed some light on the subject.

Irrespective of Queens result tonight Morton were never finishing on more points than Queens Park. Is that light bright enough?

Can you explain that to VT?

No. If Morton don’t win today then they won’t make the playoffs. Means they’ll have to come out and attack us. The worst that can happen to us is we stay top, Morton’s season will be over.

Realistically our season is already over anyway, as even in the extremely unlikely scenario that we take 9 or 10 points from the last four games we'd still need other results to go for us. Considering the likelihood that we won't even take that many points in the first place, we've barely a tiny chance of making it.

However in the scenario that we did pull off a turnaround in form out of nowhere and reached 56/57 points with a win over Queen's Park in that run, then had they lost last night we'd just have been needing them to fail to win v Ayr away and Dundee on the last day to be level on points with them or better.

It was by a distance the longest shot of the snookers we need v Ayr and Inverness not making it to that points total, but with their recent form it was one scenario on the table which is now gone. Therefore any Morton fan celebrating a Queen's Park win is indeed an idiot.

Boys, you couldn't arrange a dull 1-0 over Dundee today, couple of red cards, and a few minor injuries? Asking for a friend...:whistle🕸🕷🕸

This, please! 🙏 Though I'd be happy to take the 1-0....

Be very surprised if we come out and attack. Think this will be cagey on both sides until the first goal. If we win - and I think that’s unlikely - it’ll be smash and grab.

A point isn’t ideal, but it leaves us still fighting for 4th (albeit needing results elsewhere to go our way).

1st up we’ll be far from cagey. We’ll have 2 up front, 2 attacking wingers and 1 attack minded centre midfield.  Morton will sit in. 1 point for Morton and their season is over.
