gdevoy Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 (edited) Do we want them to peg back the Hibees to give us a chance of catching them. Or are we happy if the Hibees win as it cements 5th for us. These are vital questions for those of us living in the Capital.

fraz65 Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 I think we'll struggle to achieve fourth. Despite our excellent recent run, over 19 games we gained seven points on Aberdeen. I'm not sure what we gained on Hibs but suspect that it's a similar figure. An eight point deficit over ten games will be difficult, unless Hibs have a serious downturn in form to earn just over a point a game. I would therefore be hoping for a draw. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueKillie Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 Nah we want a draw, then hearts draw with us on points but at friday 10pm we'll have 2 games in hand over them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye but bearing in mind we gave these f**kers a 7 game start, to get close enough to even contemplate getting fourth is astonishing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jam1869 Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 Hibs win for me, doubt we will catch them, main aim now should be pulling away from Hearts and Well 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piffer Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 Draw for me as that would allow us to keep Hibs in sight and still have a chance of opening up a nice gap on Hearts. That draw would take Hibs nine points clear and hopefully we could cut that to six on Saturday. Hibs run in to the split is against clubs in the bottom six so have to hope for an upset or two in there. Then a win against them in the post split fixtures. It’s going to be a hell of a hard task to get that fourth spot. A Hearts win would probably be better in terms of catching Hibs but obviously would keep them closer in the race for fifth. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

historyman Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 For the first season in a long time I'm actually enjoying the fact that we don't have to hope results in other games going out way and that we are progressing up the league on our own merit. Finishing 5th would be a fantastic achievement as at the start of the season I would have said the first five positions were looking fairly certain with only 6th place up for grabs. We are now in a situation where we could even go one better than that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 Draw would suit killie best. But after watching hearts on Sunday think Hibs will nick this one by a goal or two. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candygram for mongo Posted March 9, 2018 Report Share Posted March 9, 2018 Hibs win for me. We needed to take 3 pts against them a fortnight ago to even have an outside chance of fourth. Top-six is our priority now and we need to win tomorrow. A fifth place finish would be fantastic considering we slept-in till the clocks went back. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gdevoy Posted March 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2018 Regardless of the result, injuries and red cards seems like the best outcome for us. Although I would never wish injury on anyone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McDeeBop Posted March 9, 2018 Report Share Posted March 9, 2018 If the teams are close to us, draw would be ideal but the team below us to lose. If one of them is miles away, them to win. Always consolidate the position you're in, and let your own games draw you closer to the teams above you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackislekillie Posted March 9, 2018 Report Share Posted March 9, 2018 Hibs, if only because they are the second leg of my five fold this week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thebigguy68 Posted March 9, 2018 Report Share Posted March 9, 2018 I think we’ll finish above Motherwell and therefore secure top 6 independent of hearts performances. Therefore I’m inclined to Back the jumbos tonight- recognising the potential of hearts to overtake us for 5th by winning matches like the hibs game. So hearts win pls. In years ( months) ahead I’m not sure we will differentiate whether we finish 6 th or 5th ( I know there is a money difference) but if it transpires that we qualify for Europe by finishing 4th, we’ll all remember that. It’s a long shot...hibs pre split games look similar in profile to ours....but I’ll twist... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killiesince69 Posted March 9, 2018 Report Share Posted March 9, 2018 At the start of every season I say that in the ideal world Killie win every game and all the other games are draws, a draw is best outcome on this one at the moment with a Hibs win second best option because then i can continue to happily gaze at the table with us in 5th tonight before our game tomorrow. While 4th would be great wouldn't want us to look at a 5th or 6th place finish as any kind of failure/disappointment at the end of a great season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan1el Posted March 9, 2018 Report Share Posted March 9, 2018 A draw, if not that then a Hibs win, whether 5th or 6th a top 6 spot would be incredible and should be our main aim, think Hibs are too far gone.. We gave the other lot too big a head start for 4th, they won't be so lucky with Sir Stevie at the helm for the full campaign. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
