Will Warnock "Hibs it"?

I don’t think it’ll happen but Neil Warnock getting Aberdeen relegated would be one of the funniest non Rangers liquidation moments in Scottish football history.

Certainly up there with Oldco’s death, and Hearts easily securing the title at Dens Park that time.

1. Rangers liquidation and Newco's time in the lower leagues.

2. Hearts relegation with 8 games to go.

Those are the current top 2 most entertaining and funny events on here.

[Thenorthernlight]

No, he won’t.

Relegation is for diddy, yo yo clubs. 

We’ll leave that to Hibs & Hearts.

You must be at it then. I’m not asking you to agree, but surely you can follow my argument. Aberdeen and indeed Hibs, no matter your big stadiums, bigger budgets, bigger supports, hypothetically higher ‘ceilings’ and traditions of being bigger clubs than the likes of St Mirren & Co, are showing fcuk-all signs of any of that mattering each and every weekend.

In your squads, their results, the competence of your BoDs and managers.

Nothing. Going away to Dundee or Livingston is tougher than facing Aberdeen or Hibs. 3-0 and 2-1 Saints. No matter your hypothetical ceiling, I see no evidence that you’ll be anything other than a soft-as-shite crisis club again next season.

You and the hapless Hibees.

 Ok so currently we’re poorly run so that’s that for pozbaird. 

Again, let’s leave it at that.

Saying that st Mirren can finish top 6 or that anyone can beat anyone on their day doesn’t really prove your point though, does it? 

If you don’t believe a well run Aberdeen has a higher ceiling than st Mirren then I’m not sure what to say to be honest. Fact is we’re currently run appallingly and, like hearts and hibs, we can find ourselves in serious bother when we do, which is where we are. Thats a great strength of our league and wouldn’t have it any other way. But to say we’re all just a 10 team lottery isn’t right. 

No-one is saying it's a lottery - but the relative gaps between the teams is not that great.

Right so pretty much what I said. There’s significant overlaps between our floors and ceilings as clubs, which imo is a great thing in our league. Your man then continued to argue for his 10 team lottery.

Let’s not forget that Hibs have spent roughly a third of their time in the lower leagues*.

*if you only count the last 10 years.

I've seen Aberdeen twice in recent months (once under Robson and once under Warnock) and all I can suggest is that if Miovski gets injured they're phuqed.

Aberdeen have got Dens, Fir Park and Almondvale in their next 4 fixtures (along with what could be a 6 pointer against County at home) - if they don't take much from meat and potatoes games like that, I would start to think it likely that they could be in the playoffs, as post split won't be easy for them.

Still think they'll have enough, mind.

His body language yesterday didn't seem great in all honesty and he didn't seem like the Miovski of earlier in the season. The most notable thing he did was clatter Hemming stupidly late. Not sure if it was a one off but it didn't look great.

United have spent 50% of their time in the lower league over the last 10 years.  The worse record of the recently published “top 10 clubs in Scotland”

I can't see him winning the Scottish Cup, no.
