Having been hopeless and out of it, we're now bizarrely only 13 points from 4th and a playoff place - stranger things have happened? Relegation? Promotion? Mid-table comfort? Where do we go from here? If ...and it is a big if...we beat Ayr then take a point from Tannadice and take the points against Norton then top 5 is possible.

Soctty Posted December 16, 2016 Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 It's still possible to win the league... It's very possible to stay up... And it's just possible to make 5th, and if it's possible to make 5th, then 4th is on the same points at the moment... But let's win tomorrow first, then see how things look from there.

Me, I still reckon we'll be off the bottom before next year but also think 6th or 7th more likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whydowebother Posted December 18, 2016 Report Share Posted December 18, 2016 Next 3 games - What would you realistically expect/ be happy with ?My guesses for the games would be as follows 5 points from 9 , possibly a bit ambitious not losing but I'd take defeat to United if it meant winning the next 2 games.United ( A ) draw Morton ( H ) Win QOS ( H ) draw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

United ( A ) draw Morton ( H ) Win QOS ( H ) draw I think any of the three games are winnable but two much harder than the other. I think we will have to beat QoS, at least avoid defeat to Morton and then anything at all from Tannadice would be a bonus. Although I am the eternal optimist, 4 pts is my prediction.

United ( A ) draw Morton ( H ) Win QOS ( H ) draw We can beat Utd. Big ask, but we gave them a good run for money at St Mirren Park, creating loads of chances, but also giving them a goal with a shocking mixup at the back. We can win the other two as well. Probably won't win all three, but capable of picking up a good number of points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bud the Baker Posted December 19, 2016 Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 1 hour ago, zurich_allan said: 4 points from the next 3 games would be just fine. 6 would be brilliant... Yup! At present the three teams above us have 17 points from 17 games - that's a point a game! We're chasing a moving target and in 3 games times let's assume they'll all be on 20 points - in that case we'll need 3 points just to keep pace. Over the second half of the season unless one or both of the p/t teams blow up we'll probably need to finish around the 36 point mark (a point a game again) to finish 8th, maybe a bit less 'cos if we do better they'll do worse but let's say 34/35 to be safe. That 23/24 points in 19 games which is top half of the table form, not far off of a promotion play-off spot, a big improvement on what we've seen so far and we'll have to be performing at close to our potential for the bulk of the second half of the season to achieve it. We may scrape by on less but there's no guarantee of it. Still, never say never and COYS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
