    Clearly in an ideal world we would win all three pragmatically we need to not fall further behind Rangers if we want to have a chance of winning the Title ,so we need to win that one .
    To take three scalps of teams in the league above us and reach a Cup Final would send out a significant message to other teams that we are clearly a team capable of playing at a higher level and would earn us income for the next a transfer Window so again a must win for me .
    Our record against Hearts isn't great and it would be good to put one over them in the Scottish Cup given that Final So again another must win for me

    So in short and for completely different reasons we need to win them all

    Good thread. Promotion is the number one priority IMHO, however I agree with hibs0666 - the next game is the most important one. As cliched as it is, if the squad were to give one game more importance than the other then they'd come a cropper at some point.

    I just want the games coming thick and fast again - I think we lost some momentum in the international break and then with the Morton game being called off. We have had a few games since and have started to see performances picking up again. I think we're in with a good shout on Saturday, it'll be really tough but it's winable. Whatever happens there, it's good that there's very little time to reflect on it, there's another game right away.

    We should be looking to win all three. Never thought I'd say this, but out of all three the one that I would be least bothered about winning is the derby. Mental!

    We need to get promoted - in the grand scheme of things I'll be quite happy to wait another year for the Scottish Cup if it means we're playing top flight football next season.

    Of course I want to beat Hearts but beating Morton next Tuesday is the priority.

    Crazy as it seems, the 1st 2 are the most important in my opinion. 1st one gets a place in a national
    Cup final, the 2nd one is another 3 points.
    Would hate to lose to that mob though

    In order of importance I would put Hearts first, St Johnstone 2nd and Morton 3rd.

    Lose one or both of the cup ties and we are denied money spinning ties later on as well as giving that lot bragging rights yet again. Lose to Morton and all is not lost even if it means getting involved in play offs.

    Every game from now till the end of the season is important to win though.

    The league must always be the priority, IMO, and particularly so when we're in the Championship and desperately need promotion. But it's nice to have so many important games to play at this stage of the season; a cup semi-final and a cup derby match in addition to a promotion push means good times.

    Morton for me as Promotion is the main aim.... However every game on its merit and we must go out to try and one every game!

    This. Beating them is everything. Losing isn't an option on the 7th

    For me the Scottish Cup is always the priority regardless of who we're playing in it. If we won the cup I wouldn't care if never played in the Premiership again.

    There isn't s priority to be had. We aim to, and expect to, win them all. Whether we do or not is a different matter but we have to believe we can, and with good reason.

    I think that's very short minded and would not bode well for the future of this club whatsoever.

    By the time the 7th comes around, we'll all be bothered about it. Let's hope we're flying, after wins against both st j and morton.

    I desperately wanna win all 3.

    Why the Morton game was arranged between these games is a mystery to me. In order of importance for me, Morton, Saints, them

    the fact that we have such a run of very important games coming hard and fast, makes me optimistic and believing that we will get something very good out of these 3 games. glass half full.

    Just win on Saturday and take it from there. They are all important for different reasons and winning the semi final would set us up nicely for next week.
