Impressive cheek blowing from Lutz.

For me the most telling thing in that photo is that Devlin is sitting so far removed from the two other players when there is a vacant seat beside them.

It smacks of a worrying lack of esprit de corps. You could have the best players in the world but without that you're going to struggle.

Where is Burrows???

He had had enough by that time and left with a large amount of fans hence the empty set next to Devlin. seriously though i have been asking that question for weeks. Mr invisible when the going gets tough

We always beat Dunfermline in league play-offs, so dinna worry.

Fair comment mate, but the only problem I see here is that our play-off would likely be against Partick Thistle so, on that front we would heading into unknown virgin territory, and to be honest I really woodna fancy our lot's chances against Partick.
I actually predicted at the start of the season Partick to win the championship, (did not forsee the Perth fairmers being as consistent as they have been in there this season)
Anyway us against Partick in a playoff and I think it would be the preverbial tatties oor the side for us

Just to inject a sense of reality into proceedings. Here's the bottom six of the league table. 

The play off will be between Killie and Thistle.

As much as it pains me to say it, I think Killie will finish in the play off position too. Not too sure who will make the play offs in the Championship though, as the play off games usually throw up some surprises. 

We will be saved by so many other teams being equally as shit as us, or worse, and I can't see any team below us going on a winning run, although I am sure we will find a hard way to avoid the play off.

A win this Saturday really would be really welcome.

You don't say. 

They're eight points behind. EIGHT.

We have been shite in some games but we're not as shite as Killie. "But but 3-0 but but Neil McCann". But but my arse. They'll finish second bottom. Even St Mirren will have to go some to overtake us.

Yes I have changed my mind about us finishing 7th and winning all our post split games but I haven't changed my mind about relegation. It won't happen. Relax and try and enjoy the closing games of the season (if you are going to attend them. I'm certainly not going in Saturday) with the pressure off.

It'll do you good. As the black people say "chill out".

The season has a helluva long way to go yet so how you can feel so sure about that? It must all be down to wearing your red tinted glasses that you really need to take off now and again (it will help you believe me) 

Looking at the pre split fixtures, and being honest and realistic there is a strong chance that going into the split there could be about 2 or 3 points separating Dons, St Mirren, Killie and Dundee 
If that is the case we should punt money on the dons ending up in the play off spot.

It's a sad sad state of affairs to put it mildly
