jagfox Posted Wednesday at 09:26 AM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 09:26 AM Into the last three games of year and we are still not much nearer to finding out if we finish 4th or 5th. Dunfermline are still needing points to avoid the bad playoffs so we could be in for another tough match. I wouldn't mind avoiding defeat. Might be the best we get on the day...

Yellow & Redneck Posted Wednesday at 09:27 AM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 09:27 AM With our remaining fixtures, this is our best chance of picking up 3pts. Nothing but a win will do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady-isobel-barnett Posted Wednesday at 09:47 AM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 09:47 AM Don't see why this will necessarily be an easier game, given Dunfermline will have more to play for than our next two opponents. Not that hopeful but I feel anything less than three points and Raith will finish fourth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Dastardly Posted Wednesday at 11:19 AM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 11:19 AM It should never have come to this. The last 2 games should have been 6 points and we would be out of sight from Raith. We now need a big performance on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandy Posted Wednesday at 12:44 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 12:44 PM Sadly I think the Pars will raise their game against us. Lennon will have them well up for it. I don’t have confidence in BG 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The much criticised Bannigan was badly missed on Saturday and will be again against Dunfermline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fifexile Posted Wednesday at 03:42 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 03:42 PM Saw Dunfermline against Hamilton a couple of weeks ago and they were dreadful without Kane. They could barely string 2 passes together and had no clue how to take on and beat Accies. Stop Kane and we should win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggernaut Posted Wednesday at 04:07 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 04:07 PM So, from the above two posts, we have a weak squad, particularly without Bannigan, and Dunfermline are dreadful; we just need to neutralize Kane. Looks pretty clear to me: Dunfermline to win 2-0. (Promise to renew live stream subscriptions for next season if we win!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elevenone Posted Wednesday at 05:48 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 05:48 PM I think this is 3 points for Pars sadly (really hope i’m wrong). Hopes on a Falkirk win to keep the status quo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunfermline (and Raith) to go down, down, deeper down. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

partickthedog Posted Friday at 09:52 AM Report Share Posted Friday at 09:52 AM Dunfermline are 5 clear of Airdrie and level with a collapsing Queen's Park. Rather than relaxing immediately, their mindset might well be more "let's put in one more big push to get the win today, and then perhaps we can relax a little (or a lot if Airdrie fail to win)".

JeanieD Posted Friday at 10:36 AM Report Share Posted Friday at 10:36 AM Was it not the case back in the day that Dunfermline beat us 10-1 in order to assure themselves of survival - think it was in the days of goal average rather than goal difference? Not that I am in any way suggesting that is likely tomorrow - I hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady-isobel-barnett Posted Friday at 10:50 AM Report Share Posted Friday at 10:50 AM I think the only difference now is that we've gone from Dunfermline being more desperate for the three points to a situation where both teams will be equal on that score. Jagfox calls it right. Dunfermline's relegation fears are eased not gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We once allowed them to score 10 against us at the end of the season and they thereby avoided relegation. Maybe brown envelopes will prevail......

jagfox Posted Friday at 01:08 PM Author Report Share Posted Friday at 01:08 PM Easy money for Neil Lennon as is due a substantial bonus for Dunfermline's Championship survival. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted Friday at 03:33 PM Author Report Share Posted Friday at 03:33 PM Bannigan still suspended but Reid back available. Kelly and Lawless got 45 minutes vs Rangers B in midweek so we should have a better shape and a bit of depth on the bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodstock Jag Posted yesterday at 08:23 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 08:23 AM I think Reid being back will help. Dan put a lot of effort in last weekend but the defence felt really unbalanced with him out at left back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
