Can we really be arsed with this tbh?.The last Saturday of the season so an excuse to go out and consume copious amounts of liquor or a soft drink or two.I'll be having the former,obviously .To the game itself,would be hilarious if we helped drag the Fermers down with us.Theve been shite and could find themselves in soapy bubble come 5 o'clock if Livi were to actually turn up.With a projected temps of 20 22degrees I fully expect to see a plethora of both male and females in their respective baggy shorts and t shirts.That will be worth the admission alone.Anyways enjoy,it'll soon be over. Mon the Lions..

Re: Championship Bound v Fermers.
Unfortunately I will miss this one due to having a prearranged event in place before the post-split fixtures were known.
It’s certainly not a meaningless game for the reasons you mention Troy, we could have a shoooooj impact on who ends up in the play offs & I’d prefer it to be the Perth Fermers with them ultimately keeping us company on the downbound elevator… why do we call them lifts/elevators? That only describes half of what they do… but I digress… with our demotion confirmed we can play without fear, so let’s get stuck right in and give them a pasting.

By jings, a comeback win! Ross got blootered at home to Motherwell so at least we have kept the play off spot interesting, now County just have to beat Saints and the Perth Fermers will be in the play off.

Re: Championship Bound v Fermers.
Let's be honest here.Saints should have won this out of the park tbh.But they didn't.All too late for us.Was strange sitting in the stand in my shorts,was still so hot and rather uncomfortable.Credit to those leaving us for having a go at least.Means nothing of course but might be we're not going down with a whimper.For me Shamal kept us in this.Felt for Bruce ploughing the lone furrow up front on his own.Subs made a difference against a tiring Saints team.On a side note,spoke to Bruce after the game.He confided he ain't going to Killie or Dundee at seasons end.His agent is trying to get him a move south which is what he wants.Anyways a pleasant evening prevails ,which is a scenario we haven't enjoyed for god knows how long.So well done and I've a gut feeling we'll see the Fermers next season..

Only two weeks since we beat Ross so not that long really.
Watched the highlights and yes Shamal kept us in it because for all his experience Devlin can’t defend consistently, for all his youthful enthusiasm Nottingham can’t defend consistently, for all his versatility Sean Kelly can’t defend consistently, for all his pace and dribbling ability Montano is NOT a defender and despite being our best defender Obileye has regressed since his arrival. Saints have apparently scored less goals than us this season, they were miles worse than us before Levein arrived and probably aren’t that much better than us despite the points gap. So I genuinely hope they come down with us but TBH I can see them staying up.

Re: Championship Bound v Fermers.
Missed this game, with my Daughter's wedding being on the same day, didn't even look at the score till after the game had finished, one of the guests told me we were being beat right enough, so got a pleasant surprise when i saw the result. Shinniesta to the rescue.
A draw and 2 wins i our last 3 home games, would love it if we kept this home form going and beat Hibs in the final league game, finishing on a high.
Yeah Nick, our defence needs a rebuild, we can't be taking any of those CB's into next season, not if we want to have a go at finishing in the top 4.
Oh and i'd love it if Raith won the play offs, just to GIRU all those plastic pitch moaners. Would be FAF if us and Falkirk went up the following season too, making it 4 plastic pitch teams in the top flight, the heads gone explosions would be box office entertaining.

Re: Championship Bound v Fermers.
Yeah, desperately wanting Rovers to go up. Long story but they were one of the first teams outside of Glasgow that I knew existed as a wee boy and I have friends from the lang toun.
