That was contingent on us losing all our games, so losing against Raith on the final day of the season. If we do that, Raith will now definitely finish above 45 points.

Between the QotS and Dunfermline games. Posters claiming there was no way that we were going to take another point and other teams were going to go on amazing runs. In the end it turned out we had already done enough by that stage, then went on to finish the season as the form side in the league. There were a lot of claims that we were lucky it was a 27 game season because if it had gone on any longer, the chasing pack was going to reel us in. In reality we extended our lead over everyone else in the league over the final five games (the only team to win 3 of our last 5 games). (Last time I failed to mention that when pointing out why us losing the league was a fantasy, someone immediately responded by suggesting I thought everything was fine, so I guess I need to caveat this post by saying this doesn't mean I think everything is rosy, that we shouldn't have picked up more points this season, or that Neilson has done a good this season.)

Between the QotS and Dunfermline games. Posters claiming there was no way that we were going to take another point and other teams were going to go on amazing runs. In the end it turned out we had already done enough by that stage, then went on to finish the season as the form side in the league.

I know I cried myself to sleep over Raith's games in hand. With laughter! I also caveat that not everything is fine, mostly in the cups. The stats above show that, even this season, we made a better fist of winning this league than teams with similar or greater advantages to us. Well, one team in particular - Hibs.

Which kind of demonstrates how easy this was. Hindsight and all that eh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
