It appears to be a straight race between us and those two for third place.  I said to my Jambo mate yesterday that we're the team to beat because I can see Hearts losing a couple of players this month and as for United... it may be too early to say and it may just be over-optimism over yesterday's results, but I think they may start to tail off a bit.  I think their squad isn't good enough to sustain their good form over the course of a season.

 

So I reckon third place is ours to lose now. We've got a big game on Saturday and we've got both Hearts (looks as though we'll be without Kerr for that one due to suspension) and United in the next month.

 

How worried do you think United and Hearts will be after yesterday's result?

Until the split it for no real reason and then give half the teams nothing to play for.   

 

Not necessarily true if you look at the league table. 

 

If it stays this close then you'll have the Old Firm fighting it out for the title, us, Lithuania and Dundee United fighting it out for 3rd (Hibs could still get back in this as well), and 3-4 teams fighting against relegation (Hamilton, St. Mirren, Falkirk and ICT probably).

 

Should make the split very interesting.  Seem to remember something similar happening a few years back (Rangers won the league on the last day and we beat Hearts 2-0 although Hibs pipped us for Europe) 

Just watched the highlights of the United and Hearts games, how the f*ck did they both manage to win?  St Mirren should've scored 4-5 in the first half and ICT had a couple of great opportunities in their game as well.  Some bizarre refereeing decisions in favour of Hearts. 

 

Great strikes by Jack Ross and Doug Imrie though, cracking goals.
