topcat(The most tip top) Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 (edited) A point against Hearts next week would be enough to see St Mirren in the top six and also end Hearts title campaign Even if Hearts win we’d still need a draw in the Old Firm game to keep our hopes alive Edited April 1 by topcat(The most tip top) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spikethedee Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Almost don't want to post this, for fear of jinxing it, but I believe that a Dundee win on Saturday, coupled with a Hibs loss, would secure top 6 for us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10menwent2mow Posted April 2 Author Share Posted April 2 Big weekend incoming. Hearts will suffer another Albert Kidd day if they fail to beat St Mirren on Saturday. Even a win would require a draw in the Glasgow Derby on Sunday. St Mirren will be able to book the open top bus for the Top 6 parade if they beat Hearts or Hibs fail to beat St Johnstone. Dundee will clinch Top 6 if they beat Motherwell and Hibs lose to St Johnstone, a scenario which would confine Hibs to the bottom half. Hibs can avoid the automatic drop with a point or if Livi fail to beat Aberdeen. Motherwell must beat Dundee and hope Hibs don't beat St Johnstone to keep Top 6 hopes alive. The steelmen will also avoid the automatic drop with a win and a Livi defeat. Same goes for Aberdeen who must beat Livi and hope Motherwell beat Dundee and Hibs don't beat St Johnstone. A Dons win would mean they would avoid 12th. Livi could find themselves condemned to the bottom 3 if they lose to Aberdeen and Motherwell beat Dundee. However they could still finish as high as 7th if they beat Aberdeen, Hibs lose to St J and Motherwell lose to Dundee 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Master Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 (edited) Dundee will finish in the top 6 if: They win one of their two remaining matches; or They draw one of their two remaining matches, and Hibs fail to beat Motherwell. Hibs will finish in the top 6 if: They beat Motherwell and Dundee fail to win both of their remaining matches; or They draw with Motherwell and Dundee lose both their remaining matches. Motherwell will finish in the top 6 if: They beat Hibs and Dundee lose both their remaining matches. It’s a somewhat quirky situation because despite being 6th now, Dundee can’t finish in the top 6 without taking at least another point.

KTID1869_ Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 Should St Mirren lose at Celtic park next and Killie win in Perth. St Mirren will then need to win 3/5 remaining games and Killie will need to lose all 5 in order to catch them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10menwent2mow Posted April 7 Author Share Posted April 7 1 set of games at a time folks. Highlights of the weekend. Hearts title dream still alive St Mirren clinch Top 6 Hibs are safe from the automatic drop Aberdeen will finish bottom half Livi can finish no higher than 9th (due to being able to catch Motherwell would mean Motherwell losing every game, including to Aberdeen which would give the Dons 37pts) On to midweek where there is only 1 fixture. It will be Albert Kidd day for Hearts again at Dens Park if 'Rangers' beat Dundee. Hearts would be able to match 'Rangers' 77pts but that would involve Celtic winning the last Glasgow Derby pushing them to 78. Dundee will complete the Top 6 with a win while Motherwell will be condemned to the bottom half if Dundee get a point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example St Mirren’s chances of finishing 3rd are still alive but are now dependent on getting a better result against Celtic than Hearts get against Livingston on the Other hand while a St Mirren defeat would confirm Hearts in the top four it would also see the end of our title hopes Edited April 8 by topcat(The most tip top) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the teams in the bottom six have up to five hundred times our budget budget and for an amateur team made up purely of enthusiastic but rag-tag volunteers budget such as ours to budget finish about such heavyweights budget is truly sensational, marvelous, wonderful, budget, amazing.
