Got a feeling it aint gonna be pretty again. 1-0 goldson header.

Another step closer to the title.

I'll take 1-0 PB, 3 points is all that matters. 🔴⚪🔵🇬🇧

Wonder if Itten will get game time given he could be our only fit and available striker next weekend (if Roofe banned and Defoe calf injury doesn't clear). He could probably do with the minutes but could also be sat out deliberately.

[BlueAvenger 10,240]

Once again we need to forget the league is won pish. Be up for it and take our fuckin chances and just win. And calm my fuckin nerves ! 

[CoGerfficiency 137]

Itten should be all over this game like flies on shit. I just hope we get the 3 points though and get out that hideous pitch with no problems for players. Og off 4 players before it goes in would do though, I don't care how we win that one tomorrow.

[PromDeAnglais 5,470]

Take a very comfy 3-0 here. 

Hope Itten gets his chance and takes it. Hamilton are dug shite. Even at home.

It’s not too much to ask

Think we’ll win by a comfortable margin but it will be tough again. Can’t see us conceding though.

Play up the Rangers

Hopefully a better watch than the last few games have been (County aside). 0-2

[CR3 12,682]

0-4 to the teddy bears.

[Leftpegcoopz11 4,734]

Any kind of win will do. 3 points is a must. 

Would rather we started hitting better form closer to playing the scum.

We will get 3 points but it isn't a must. Total opposite really.

[bluenoz 30,836]

Hate theses pitches. I like big Brian Rice but I hope both Hamilton & Kilmarnock get relegated leaving us with only one astro surface in the league.

[andyhrfc 2,242]

We have reached the stage where we can play these games like European aways.  Keep it tight and invite the opposition forward and pick them off.  No need to go mad and risk injury especially if we haven’t scored in the first half.  4-0 to The Famous.

Still amazes me how they are allowed to get away with plastic pitches.  If a club wants to be in the top league they have a grass pitch.  Having said that we had a largely mud pitch this time last year.

Or we could keep doing the same thing as we have been doing all season and how we beat them 8-0. To change anything at this stage would be madness, especially treating Hamilton like Benfica 😂

[Bad Robot 21,150]

I can’t see Itten starting as if he gets an injury then we’re fkd for the games after. Roofe needs to start and if we’re comfortable then possibly give Itten a run out the last ten just to give him a wee kickstart for Wednesday. Hopefully JD will be available Wednesday as a back up to Itten.

If you reread my post you will see that I am suggesting that we take it easy and go for a 4-0 win.  No need to go all runs blazing for 8-0. All we need is three points with minimal risk of injury and minimal energy expenditure.  We are still fighting on three fronts.

I agree. It was mooted that they were to hire them out and make money that way. Livingston have a full sized pitch OUTSIDE their ground that's probably better quality than the stadium pitch. Why they need a plastic pitch for the first team is beyond me.

No we haven't. 

[jamess 3,422]

It will probably be tough and a slog, people will complain we are playing shite but we will win. All will declare it is the how you win championships.

I will be more than happy with a 4-0 win.  Three points and a stroll in the park will do.

Everyone on here would. We haven't reached the stage where we can take the foot off the gas even slightly yet though. 

[southcoastbear 1,639]

I hope we put a few past this lot, partly  because it's another 3 pts but to make that Les Gray's ugly mug even more miserable.

His behaviour on spfl business appears to have been at best questionable on more than one occasion, without liewell's influence  I would think there must be a few clubs that would like to see him voted off the board come election time

I think we agree that we can’t take the foot of the gas, but differ in the manner in which we should approach tomorrow’s game.  By 2pm I won’t really be arsed how we play if we are three points closer to 55.
