Livingston shot off bar and post in first half 2cms more and big Joe would have let me down. Sent from my T610K using Tapatalk

Update as of 1st April - Aberdeen 44 St Mirren 41 Hibs 40 Livingston 39 Aberdeen have secured top 6 now but I've still included them. Last 3 sets of fixtures are - D Utd v Hibs Motherwell v Livingston Aberdeen v Kilmarnock Hearts v St Mirren Hibs v Hearts Livingston v St Johnstone Ross County v Aberdeen Rangers v St Mirren St Johnstone v Hibs D Utd v Livingston Aberdeen v Rangers St Mirren v Kilmarnock Kilmarnock s victory has shook up bottom of the table hopefully Mr Goodwin gets a Utd victory v Livingston or Hibs preferably both. I'm thinking Livingston going by recent form might only get one more victory so 1 more point might actually be enough for us to get top 6 on goal difference from them.

I'm not whining, just pointing out that some officials influence the game more than the players last time out was a bit mental though Dundee Utd, Kilmarnock, Hibs and Ross County were all in receiving end of bad/dodgy calls. Sent from my T610K using Tapatalk

This might have bigger say on outcome of the match than the players on the pitch. Sent from my T610K using Tapatalk

Hearts fans are unhappy with their players & manager in a big way they didn't look great v us but somehow got 4 points from 6 when it should really have been other way around. I think we will need something from Hearts or we will miss out and can see it being last 5 minutes heartbreak like v Hamilton. Our terrible away form and 1 point from 6 v ten men St Johnstone will ultimately be the reason we don't make it if that is what happens. Sent from my T671H using Tapatalk

As we know from Penalty we received v Celtic VAR cannot intervene until a natural stoppage in play seen a bit of talk that penalty was maybe given for foul on Grieve just before Main incident so if ball went out of play at Main incident that was the right time to award the penalty if it's a stonewaller I'm pretty sure VAR has power to tell ref it's a definite penalty without him going to monitor.

Been called up to Australia squad tonight as a replacement for Mooy. Well deserved our player of the year imo Sent from my T671H using Tapatalk

On a side note, my mate told me Andy Halliday was on open goal within last 2 weeks and they were discussing all the hand ball penalties we are now seeing and how every club has suffered and spoke about evening themselves out over the season. He apparently said that St Mirren fans won't see hand ball penalties even themselves out as the one at Tynecastle we should have had was a shocker and was the most blatant Handball of all but not given. That was probably true until Kilmarnock v St Johnstone yesterday. Sent from my T671H using Tapatalk

I could take the credit but I got a tip for Langer Dan that they specifically targeted this race to allow their favourite jockey ride it. Should have did a single too[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]. All the tips online had Gerri Colombe and Delta Work as banker's put the two of them on three different bets. A double, a treble and a 6 fold that if Dino Blue wins the 5.10 race the 6 fold was winning £1250. Sent from my T671H using Tapatalk

If Delta Work wins as expected Gerri Colombe cost me £330 [emoji24][emoji24][emoji24]. Sent from my T671H using Tapatalk

I know very little about the horses apart from when overwhelming favourites like Constitution Hill are in town according to all those "in the know" Delta Work & Gerry Colombe are today's two bankers only mistakes or bad luck stops them winning. Bet365 reveals their Superboost at 10am I'm expecting it to be Delta Work after they went for Constitution Hill yesterday. Sent from my T671H using Tapatalk

Bet365 also offered a superboost tonight even money for Haaland over 0.5 shots on Target & City to win. I sent it to my brother said this could be up in 20 minutes with early payout I was 4mins out. Sent from my T671H using Tapatalk

Had a mixed day Bet365 only allowed me £10 on Constitution Hill but William Hill offered same boost even money so had another £10 on their site £20 for free put the £20 on Gallard at 5.30 also even money so nice wee free £40. Had a 5 horse Accumulator the 5 short(ISH) odds favourites 99/1 only Facile Vega clipping last fence when winning stopped that. Sent from my T671H using Tapatalk

I didn't even realise Crewe had won, I just checked see a certain wee Stevie Mallan scored for Salford. Today's Lunchtime bet I now lose on a Friday night, Saturday lunchtime and a Saturday afternoon instead of just a Saturday afternoon. Sent from my T671H using Tapatalk

Yeah the odds swung it for me even though I doubted it would win after Stoke scored 5 last week. Sent from my T671H using Tapatalk

I still hold out hope that we can grab something from Tynecastle like when we won at Hibs for first time in years last season a win there seemed to be coming for a while. Hearts matches seem to be going same way play well deserve probably more just can't get that elusive win. Obviously if we go into Hearts match on back of no wins v Utd and Livingston that will make a big difference to how this match pans out. Sent from my T671H using Tapatalk

Update 8/3/23 Next fixtures 18/03/23 - Celtic v Hibs Aberdeen v Hearts Dundee Utd v St Mirren Livingston v Ross County League table - Hibs 40 Aberdeen 38 St Mirren 37 Livingston 36 Let's presume Hibs lose to Celtic and Aberdeen, St Mirren and Livingston win the league table will look like this - Aberdeen 41 Hibs 40 St Mirren 40 Livingston 39. The Utd match isn't a must win but definitely a must not lose, our next match after Utd is Livingston who are on their worst run of season and wouldn't it be typical to play United then Livingston when both are on a long winless run as we have played 4 teams on such runs this season and lost all 4. Sent from my T671H using Tapatalk

On the original post when there was 8 games left(Livingston had 9 to play) all the other 3 teams apart from Livingston play the top 3 so us Aberdeen and Hibs all in same boat where only the "other" matches have full points potential but like you say we could start this 5 game run from 18th of March bottom of the 4 if Livingston win on Wednesday (which if they Utd then play us next & without a win for months so you know what happens next). I read someone's comment on here recently that 4 teams this season went weeks without a win until they played us. Think the way Hearts and Rangers fans are talking of their teams performances they will possibly lose at least one match before split we just have to hope it's not v Hibs or Aberdeen.

Update as of 05/03 When I started this thread Livingston were in pole position top of the 4 team battle, with a game in hand and only 1 of top 3 to play in their 8 game run to split. Fast forward a few weeks and Hibs are in that position now, their game in hand is this week and is home to Rangers which there is every possibility they could win a Rangers Hearts away performance is required for us please. Livingston also play this week v Dundee Utd now we know Goodwin teams very rarely win at Livingston but their performance v Aberdeen was best in months lets hope they don't do a Motherwell and turn things around as next match after Wednesday is at home to us. Livingston look a little down and out at the minute but we know them and that probably won't last forever. We really have to look at 7 points from 9 for the games v Utd, Livingston and Kilmarnock and hope for something from Hearts and Rangers away. Fixtures to end of March - Hibs v Rangers Livingston v Dundee Utd 18th March - Celtic v Hibs Aberdeen v Hearts Dundee Utd v St Mirren Livingston v Ross County. Sent from my T671H using Tapatalk

Those points missed plus only 2 points from playing ten men twice against St Johnstone will be where we look if we fail to get top 6. Hibs have won 11 games they said on TV today they have played 10 men in 7 of them. Aberdeen too played 10 men numerous times but they seemed to go out way to even that up with the amount of red cards received since world cup. Sent from my T671H using Tapatalk

Realistically of the 6 games left we are only looking at a maximum of 3 wins this is one of them. Utd is our favourite away ground so they must be overdue a victory up there against us. Hopefully that means we are also overdue a win at Tynecastle[emoji6] on the 8th of April. Sent from my T671H using Tapatalk

Yeah 22/1 both teams to score and win might do that instead. Sent from my T671H using Tapatalk

Just saw his press conference the guy needs help absolutely deluded one week cost him his job at Aberdeen. Sent from my T671H using Tapatalk

Only got job until end of season I would presume some clause if he keeps them up he gets a new contract if he doesn't he leaves and they start afresh in the seaside league. Sent from my T671H using Tapatalk
