NottsJambo Posted March 4 Posted March 4 Apologies for another thread on this, but I was just looking at the post split fixtures thread and I got an ovewhelming sense that we can do this! Ok, I'm a little late to the party but I'm not an optimist. My final table: 1. Hearts (80pts) 2. Celtic (78pts) 3. Motherwell (76pts) 4. Rangers (74pts)* *I actually think they will drop more points than this. This expects us to lose away to Mothewell and Celtic and draw with Hibs post-split, and drawing at home Vs Motherwell, pre-split, so even dropping two points against Kilmarnock, say, is recoverable. What a feeling!
tightrope Posted March 4 Posted March 4 A final day decider? No thanks,,,,,,We will wrap.it up by game 2 in the split.
Dirty Deeds Posted March 4 Posted March 4 I'll hold back until 10pm tonight, I'm not sure if it's my heart or my head but I think Celtic are a busted flush and about to fall away.
Morgan Posted March 4 Posted March 4 It’s going to be tight. Motherwell have a huge part to play in the final destination of the League flag. I'd venture that if one of the Glasgow clubs is going to implode, it’ll be Celtic. I hope that the implosion starts tonight.
Thranduill Posted March 4 Posted March 4 1. Hearts (81pts) 2. Celtic (79pts) 3. Rangers (76pts) If it does come down to the final day I might actually die.
NottsJambo Posted March 4 Author Posted March 4 In my scientific calculation, I have us picking up just 1 point against Mothewerll over two games. I'm being pretty conservative about this. That said, we need Motherwell to be very strong in the run in, especially against Celtic

Fifejambo 51 Posted March 4 Posted March 4 Motherwell have got a tough run in. Apart from Dundee at the weekend, their last 9 games are all against the top 6

It would be amazing, but it's also how I see it going down. Impossible to predict for sure, certainly, but I just see Celtic and Rangers stumbling just a bit more than Well, and it being enough for them to squeak through.

I'm hoping after the non stop incessant chat about 86 from the media, rival fans and even our own fans, it doesn't. Also we're not in a cup final the week after it so it's not the same in any way shape or form.

What a feeling! Worrying … you are predicting that our average season to date of 2.2 points per match is going to drop to 1.9 points per match over the last 9 matches! That is most definitely not the form of champions! I hope you are wrong …

I hope you are wrong … It's not wholly unrealistic to see our ppg drop post-split, when the competition gets harder on average, but on the other hand we have what should be three easier games running up to that. I'm of the opinion that Shanks and Devlin returning is going to give us a new boost of dominance, but who knows.

Shankland31 Posted March 5 Posted March 5 One game at a time. No game from now til end of the season will be easy. Try not to look too far ahead. Kilmarnock away biggest game of the season so far. All focus should be on that. We all have to turn up and roar the boys over the line.
hughesie27 Posted March 5 Posted March 5 Celtic 80 (7 wins 1 loss 1 draw) Rangers 79 (7 wins 1 loss 1 draw) Hearts 79 (5 wins 1 draw 3 losses) Think we lose Motherwell away and the two OF games. Draw at Easter Road. Rangers pip us on GD.
Jambo dans les Pyrenees Posted March 5 Posted March 5 No last game déciders please Hearts The média will dig up Albert Kidd, who as well as being Albert Kidd will be a right old codger now and depress me on multiple fronts.

Takeshi kovac Posted March 5 Posted March 5 Rangers only dropping 2 points to Falkirk pre split Celtic lose to Motherwell pre split We win our games to take an 8 point lead We all win the first game, ours at home to Falkirk 2nd round the arse cheeks derby on the Saturday end in a draw and cuts our lead to 7 We beat the vermin on the Sunday at a 3 quarters empty echdome to go 10 points clear with 3 to play The staff and players go on a two week bender and lose the next 3 games We don't notice as we are in the middle of a month long party That's my prediction 🤎😎
Rogue Daddy Posted March 5 Posted March 5 Not done any maths on this subject yet… but IMO if we win our remaining pre split games…. I reckon we’ll only need 1 win out of 5 post split (78pts… plus a draw or two). No way do one of the uglies win all of their remaining games, they’ll both definitely drop points.

michael_bolton Posted March 5 Posted March 5 It's impossible to accurately predict, which is a wonderful thing to be able to say when you consider the general state of our league for the last four decades or so. But there are just too many well-matched teams and the vast majority of games in the league are so tight. It's great, but it makes it stressful. The post-split games are going to be ridiculously tight and the margins will be small. But the run up to them gives us a huge opportunity. For example, if Motherwell go and win at Celtic, that probably finishes Celtic off if we win at Killie. But Celtic beating them could help us in that we'd be playing a Motherwell team in a few weeks with the wind out their sails a bit. And if Celtic were to fail to win at Tannadice for example, and why not, then it all opens up for us. One game at a time for the players etc, of course, but looking at the run-in winning our next three is absolutely massive. however that is achieved, and would leave us in a position where quite probable results could see us wrap this up two or three games from the end if we keep grinding through and the teams around us continue to take points from each other. Going to the last day might finsh me off.

IF, big IF, we win the next four, then one win after the split and avoiding defeat in the two OF games very likely wins us the league. Would give us a minimum of 80 points and would leave Celtic with a maximum achievable of 83 and Rangers 82. Obviously the OF have to play each other, so one or both drops points there, and I can't see either being flawless against the other sides.
Carter Posted March 5 Posted March 5 Feels too early to predict. If we manage to safely navigate Kilmarnock, Dundee and Livingston with 9 points then we go into the final 6 tough fixtures in a good place. I feel we can't drop any points across the next 3 games.
