Michael W Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 14 hours ago, Ro Sham Bo said: We need 9 points from these 3 home games. Anything less and it's all over. We need to win the game in hand, and then better Dundee United's results in the other five. Goal difference is out, so we need to win when they either draw or lose a match. Failing to match one of their results during this period and it's game over. I do think the chance will present itself, but whether we can take advantage of it is the big question. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllanJM Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Would hope (and expect) to see a reaction from the team to a disappointing result and performance on at the weekend. Agree with others that we absolutely need Byrne or Matthews at the base of the midfield for this. I would also start with Hamilton on this as he's caused far more issues for the defenders than Rudden in probably every game since Ayr away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they win their next 2, we need 9 points really - 7 would need them dropping points in 2 out of the last 3 games, and us taking advantage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pub car king Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Lot of ifs, buts and maybes to go yet starting on Friday night. United go to Morton, if they win they'll be 7 points clear, if they draw or lose they'll be 5 or 4 points clear but we will effectively have 2 games in hand granted one of those is the next day but that's just how quickly this race can switch 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L. Brilliant Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 If we're thinking about anything other than how to beat Ayr, we will not beat Ayr. I think this is quite a big test of the manager after what he did at the weekend. If we line up with something wacky then Ayr have enough to take advantage, as they showed on Friday when Airdrie had a fifteen minute wobble. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fletchers Saucy Manbun Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Ayr in good form, Raith losing the big game at the weekend. Expecting Raith to properly shit the bed, finally putting their title hopes in the bin. 4-1 Ayr. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUcal Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Gutting to be missing this, have enjoyed recent visits to Kirkcaldy (not always the football, but the trip at least). We are very inconsistent just now as are Rovers. I feel this has a draw written all over it. Would be happy enough with that but theres a part of me that hopes Raith are gutted after last weekend and we can capitalise. A win would be huge, with probably only another 3 points after that needed to secure safety. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playoffs if we’re lucky? It’s mathematically impossible for us to finish outside the top four. Dunfermline in 5th can’t catch us, but due to having a game in hand Morton in 6th can. But for them to overtake us they need to win all their games. They play Airdrie on Saturday and if Morton beat them (which they need to do to finish above us) Airdrie can no longer catch us. Which means we’ll be fourth as a minimum. We may not win the league but get behind the boys so we can be in a positive mood and good form going into the playoffs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
