E=Mc2 Posted May 3, 2014 Report Share Posted May 3, 2014 I rolled a dice This morning and it came up a 1. Just rolled it again and it came up a 2. 1-1 or a 0 -2 or a 2-0. Better than the 2010 World Cup octopus I reckon. Particularly since it is now in the big fish tank in the sky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davidg Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Playing at the Killie Gowf day at Dundonald then hospitality. Should be a good day. Hoping for a Saints double. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester Saint Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 How this game goes will very much depend on Killie's result against Hearts today. If they don't win, we won't need to give a f**k, and they'll be desperate for a result. However, that can sometimes make one team play with freedom and the other team far too nervous & cautious. So, it's mibbes aye, mibbes naw, I suppose! It's got the look of a draw though really. We're winning at home, drawing away. That kind of form will win us the league next season ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oaksoft Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 We still need to get a point to be absolutely safe regardless of Killie's result today against the Jambo's. They could lose today, win their last two games and if we were to lose against Hearts we could finish 11th if other results went against us. I hope they lose today and we beat them 7-0 just to save any doubts.... If Killie lose today then I'm pretty sure we can't be caught. I tried to find a losing permutation yesterday and didn't manage it. Maybe someone else can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oaksoft Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 (edited) Phew....I'm really happy about that.....don't think I can bring myself to say publicly "come on the dirty Jambo's!!!!" Oops I just did......ah feck it may as well say it again: COME ON THE DIRTY JAMBO'S!!! However if Killie do win today, then we really need to go out and win. The players shouldn't be thinking about survival now. There is a vast sum of money available for finishing 7th. Pride too but AFAIK the difference is about £80k per place. The difference between 7th and 11th is around a quarter of a million pounds. Hopefully I'm not talking absolute horseshit here. I may be wrong though but finishing 7th is financially crucial.

Greenhill Road Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Found the same figures Andysaint, this with the reductions the clubs agreed, don't know how accurate it is right enough. Premiership 1 £2,405,000 (-£315,000) 2 £1,718,000 (-£682,000) 3 £1,460,000 (-£60,000) 4 £1,289,000 (-£71,000) 5 £1,203,000 (-£77,000) 6 £1,117,000 (-£83,000) 7 £1,057,000 (-£63,000) 8 £1,005,000 (-£35,000) 9 £988,000 (+£28,000) 10 £902,000 (+£22,000) 11 £816,000 (+£16,000) 12 £730,000 (+£10,000) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F*ck knows what the prize pool actually is, though. You can tell right away that they are not the old figures because there isn't a yawning chasm between 2nd and 3rd. i.e. the old system was deliberately set up so that the former Old Firm kept all the money. Prize money increased by 0.5% of the pot per league position, then took a massive jump of 5.5% between 3rd and 2nd places, which was why it was so incredibly lucrative for any team to manage the unlikely feat of splitting Rangers and Celtic. The new system doesn't have the big jump between 3rd and 2nd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bud77 Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 The figures have been reduced since the league bodies merged and the play-offs were introduced. Cheesy's dad will know the exact value of us finishing 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th or 11th. Finishing 11th could actually be more lucrative than finishing 9th or 10th as you have the added benefit of the play-off home match revenue and it may also include some additional TV money (unless that is pooled). Just as long as it's not Saints! There is no additional tv money for the play offs this season. The tv companies argued that they had contracted to tell the story of the season and the season won;t be over until all promotion/relegation is decided. Because Doncaster's a cock As a goodwill gesture the SPFL decided to let them have the play offs free of charge this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently 50% of the play off monies goes straight to the SFA's coffers. Richard Gordon suggested that it might be used towards the parachute payment if the Premiership team goes down.

E=Mc2 Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 I hope Raw Chutney and the Hives draw on Tuesday night. We beat Killie by one goal and then Killie only have to beat Hibs by 3 to go above them. Even if Partick get beat by Hearts, as long as it is only by one goal, then a draw between the Jags and Raw Chutney will put the Hives down to the play off as they have scored the least amount of goals.

Callum Gilhooley Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Would it be wrong of us to each buy a beach ball or similar inflatables for this game? Was going to buy one the last time i was there. The guy in the shop said its £2.00 for the ball but £2.50 if i want it blown up. Well, that`s inflation for you !

saintnextlifetime Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Personally , I'd like to see the Adams Family get the trap door , just because , I'm that kind of guy . If , silly killy boys take the play-off then so be it , I'm really not that bothered now because my team are safe. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLBud Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 I understand that Thommo has been struggling with a knee injury recently and needs a wee op in the summer. Might as well get it done now as the next two games are MEANINGLESS! Ah, that felt good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester Saint Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 No reason why we can't pump this sorry lot, all depends if we put our minds to it.Perhaps the fact we're safe might just make our players go out and enjoy the match and turn on the style. Hope so. It'd be good to see Killie lose 10 goals in the space of a few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonny Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 They are not that meaningless as they are worh an extra £200,000 if we get 7th - almost what we may get for Kenny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
