Going to a football game today with a chance of winning a league for the first time since 1997.

For it to happen today we need LJS’s Queens Park to do us a favour  :-)

Would love to oblige, Comfy. Sadly, we've only scored once against raith this season & they've put 10 past us. :(

I fear we may be 2 leagues apart next season.

Hard to look past the current bottom three now for the drop. Three “established” clubs who have gotten fat, lazy and complacent over the last few years.

Feel that you've hit the nail on the head here. Some top quality players going down though, that'll never play a second in the championship. (See: Shaqiri, Butland, Allen, Evans, Tadic, Redmond etc etc)

Aye, really enjoyed the game last night. Annoyed at the penalty but only because it robbed us of the extra half hour. 

Hope for your sake you haven’t tempted fate talking about Arsenal, bad memories and comebacks :-)

Yeah, would have been great to see more. 

Nearly did tempt fate! Tough draw for the semis but probably would have had to beat them to win the whole thing.

Brighton's remaining fixtures though - Spurs, Burnley, United, City, Liverpool. They're in real danger of being dragged into it.

Can't see the Southampton lads having a relegation release clause which may make it tricky for Tadic and Redmond and the Saints will not want them to leave on the cheap!

A seven point gap is massive when there’s only 5 games left though. 

There is often a team who makes a late surge and ends up surviving. I fancy Southampton might manage it as they have a few winnable fixtures for their last few games. Swansea vs Southampton will likely be a very important match for the relegation fight.

Also, Stoke have Palace then Swansea for their last couple games. Also could be big.

I dunno, blowing a two goal lead like that is the sort of thing that devastates teams.

So we get our top goal scorer and all round hero sent off in the first half and lose 2-1 due to a late penalty plus Raith beat Queen’s Park.

Our game next week is up in Alloa and has been moved to Sunday for tv ( Bbc alba ). 

Normally a one bus travel club have 11 buses full with more to come as the club are subsidising the buses again.

Its never easy !

It’s quite conceivable that we will go into the last couple of weeks of the season with the top four and bottom three pretty much sewn up. Which would be a bit dull.

I’m sure sky would stil hype up the europa league placings.
