10menwent2mow Posted March 13 Author Share Posted March 13 Aberdeen hold on to the potato after yet another abject performance. They will next travel to Fir Park to attempt to offload it to another long term holder in Motherwell. And I'm going, can hardly wait Next Hot Potato Fixture Saturday 16th March Motherwell v Aberdeen (holders) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10menwent2mow Posted March 17 Author Share Posted March 17 Seems like I brought a bit of fortune to the Dandies as they overcame Motherwell to offload the Hot Potato to the steelmen just in time for the international break. They can stick it in tin foil for a couple of weeks before they take on St Mirren.

mathematics Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Motherwell have two opportunities to punt the potato into the top six as their remaining fixtures are against Dundee and Hibs. Unfortunately for them, in trying to do so may mean the potato stays in the bottom six. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately for them, in trying to do so may mean the potato stays in the bottom six. Aye the chances of the Tattie landing in the Top 6 look slim. Best case scenario for it happening is probably Motherwell drawing with Dundee, Hibs beating St J, Dundee losing their last 2 and Motherwell giving it to Top 6 Hibs last pre split fixture. If Motherwell beat Dundee then Dundee will have to beat 'Rangers' and then 'Rangers' fail to beat County for it to remain Top 6. I think those are the only two scenarios that will see the tattie usurp the battle for the title and European slots as the focus of Top 6 football. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie McSquackle Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Motherwell left it in Dundee so the tattie is on the move again with an increased chance of it being in the top 6. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10menwent2mow Posted April 15 Author Share Posted April 15 St Mirrens draw with Motherwell meant the Tattie stayed in Lanarkshire, only for a stirring comeback, completed by a 93rd minute winner against Dundee, meant the steelmen offloaded it to Dundee. The potato was then slightly waterlogged last midweek (you nay have heard about this potatincident) meaning the next potato match was at Pittodrie. Victory for the Dees and it would definitely end up in the bottom 6, a draw and depending on other results and the Top 6 was a possibility. Hibs draw with Motherwell and draw at Pittodrie means THE HOT POTATO WILL GO TO A TOP 6 SIDE.

10menwent2mow Posted April 26 Author Share Posted April 26 So with Dundee being held to a draw by 'Rangers', they retain possession of the potato going into the Post Split fixtures. They host Celtic on Sunday at the ScotFoam stadium. Next Hot Potato Fixture Sunday 28th April Dundee (holders) vs Celtic 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy_K_97 Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 The tattie remains firmly planted in the quagmire of a pitch at Dens - which, admittedly, looked a hell of a lot better today than it did last week. Will the Buddies take it to Paisley next weekend, or will it remain firmly planted? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scam75 Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Tattie still in the tattie field, odds on to remain there for its holidays unless the Dee's can offload at Tynecastle, Ibrox or at home to 4th spot chasing Killie on the final day.

10menwent2mow Posted May 13 Author Share Posted May 13 Three successive defeats for Dundee since scraping into the Top 6 while holding the tattie mean that there are only four potential destinations for the Spud at the end of the season. St.Mirren and Celtic will not be crowned Hot Potato champions at the end of the campaign. The permutations are as follows. The next Hot Potato fixture is 'Rangers' vs Dundee on Tuesday. Should Dundee retain the tattie in the firey hell of Mordor then they will set up a last day Spud Showdown with Kilmarnock. Should Dundee win at Ibrox then 'Rangers' will take possession going into the last day where they face Hearts in a match off to see who can praise the King (Edward) the most. From a personal point of view, it would be fitting if Dundee were to miss out on a European spot, at least had the solace of being potato kings for the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see what this is building to a mile away. 4th spot, European football, but finishing the season as winners of the dreaded Hot Potato.

Oh, the shame! European spots are discretionary and can be removed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
