Or they could promote Dundee instead.

A question which, I think, even they don't know how to answer. As you pointed out earlier they're pretty 'flexible' when it comes to rule changes. I guess any of your options are viable.

Hof has the right answer though.

Hamilton drop points to Thistle yet again. Fuzzy, if your lot do eventually overtake Accies, your players will owe ours half their promotion bonus.

That game sounded like it was all Hamilton and your keeper was playing a blinder. I had a good old-fashioned shout at the radio every time a report came over.

Give us the three points tomorrow night and they could be in with a shout.

Alloa 1 - 2 Ayr

If we manage to get into the promotion play-offs despite having to play Adam Coakley up front for so many games this season it will be faintly astonishing. I don't think I've ever seen a promotion chasing team with a less effective striker.

We largely dominated the possession on Saturday but with Coakley leading our line we consistently failed to turn good possession and some top quality balls into the area into goals. Coupling that with the defence having a day where they couldn't defend set-pieces and it was the perfect smash and grab effort from Ayr.

Can we please have at least one of our injured front players back for the remaining games?

I wish I had watched this instead of the crud served up at Ipox.

Is there no limit to the bastards' arrogance?


i seem to recall the SPL were fairly unsympathetic to Celtics build up of fixtures before the UEFA final in Seville :-(

While not advocating that the season should necessarily be extended to assist Rangers, with the postponement of matches to help Scotland prepare for the Italy game and after Phil O'Donnell's death there have been what could termed as some exceptional circumstances.

Morton 1 Dundee 2
Hamilton 2 St Jings 0

Still 4 points in it as squeaky bum time fast approaches.

We've got Stirling at home and QoS away; Hamilton have Franchise (North) away and Clyde at home before we play each other at Dens on the last day.

Stirling may well already be relegated by the time we play them, so there's no way of knowing how that game will go. Queens are the big manky fly in our ointment though. We don't have a great record at Palmerston and I can see our title chances dropping away there.

Franchise and Clyde may still be battling to avoid the play-offs. Hopefully, they'll be able to nick points from Hamilton. I don't really see it happening, mind.

Aberdeen have just conceded a risible equaliser at home to Falkirk. A low cross into the box resulted in a mad scramble which culminated with the ball bobbling over the line in bizarre fashion. They're crediting it to Carl Finnigan, but it's effectively an o.g. by the goalkeeper Soutar.

I think this game decides which of them gets into the top six before the division splits in two.

Maguire puts Aberdeen back into the lead with about eight minutes left, squeezing the ball home from close range.

Robert Olejnik has been booked for protesting that the ball was over the byline when Aluko crossed it, but it wasn't. And it's not good goalkeeping by Olejnik, either -- he gave Maguire far too much of a sight of goal.

Another record tumbled in Scottish football at the weekend - Fairytale v ICT managed to pull in 431 punters, beating the previous 'best' held by Fairytale and My Friends and Neighbours.

The fourth lowest crowd in the country. Even East Stirling v Elgin managed to draw more.

If Fairytale were a dog, you'd put them out of their misery.

Ach, shite.

Sorry Binos. Inevitable they would go down, but I really, really didn't want Thistle to be the ones to pull the trigger on them.
