    Our next four games...

    Hoping for 12/12 but would take 10 points. Kilmarnock will be tricky but I'm confident we will grind it out again.

    Great opportunity to keep the momentum going, especially with a difficult December. The rate we're going at, 60+ points is very achievable, and in the last couple of seasons that would get you top 4. Need to keep the head as it'll be a long old season but encouraging start id say

    In all honesty a top four finish should be a serious target. I dont think thats getting above ourselves, we are better than St Johnstone, Motherwell and Hearts, who else is going to finish in the top four?

    Did we not used to do this in the championship and end up with a lot less points than anticipated. One game at a time

    Exactly right.

    I'm sure Lennon will be looking ahead, but he'll be keeping the squad focused on the next game only.

    If we get too far ahead of ourselves, we'll trip up.

    Would settle for consistent home form and considering anything picked up on the road as a bonus. The Kilmarnock game will be a tough one. They have managed to get points away from home against the top two sides.

    Three points Tuesday will do me. Then I'll bother about Saturday's game.

    Every team that will be looking to get in top 6 have a tough November/December. That’s why these 5 games coming up are of utmost importance to give us a solid footing going into the four tough games in December. 12 points + from those games will see us right in the mix for the top 4 going into Decembers’ games.

    On top of that, it's an artificial pitch.

    It won't be easy.

    This season Kilmarnock's home form has been abysmal so far.

    Kilmarnock have turned things around in October, I'd expect a tough game, they have played 3 away matches, winning at Partick and drawing at Ibrox and Parkhead. Very decent run of results. We'll smash 'em though

    The Kilmarnock game won't be quite as easy as it would have been a month ago but I'm confident that we can win it.

    If we're going to get into the top 4, winning these matches is a must.

    I think backs to the wall performances are quite easy to execute, however when they have to try and win it is a different matter.
    Hibs win two nil.

    I think this'll be the first time Hibs have played at rugby park since they installed their artificial pitch? That could be a factor. I think we'll grind out another 3 points though.

    A win on Tuesday puts us 3rd, what an incentive

    It is. It got installed at the end of the season where we got relegated.

    We've got the potential in the squad to take all 12 points but I seem to have been saying this about us for decades so I'll remain in the one game at a time camp, but optimistically.☺

    Winning these matches isn’t a must at all and doing so is unrealistic.

    Most teams in this league are of a generally equivalent standard, we’ve won our last two games, winning 6 in a row very rarely happens. If we can get two wins and a couple of draws out of our next 4 games it’s been a great run of form and will have us well in the hunt for a top four place.

    We got the better of Motherwell yesterday by playing them at their own game, and by virtue of having a superior midfield (SMG and McGeouch were tremendous).

    We adjusted well to what was required on the day and that's what we need to keep doing.

    My sentiments exactly. If we take all 12 points we will know for certain that we have become a real force again. Hamilton beat us, we drew with Dundee, now show us it is different.

    All four teams we play also have the potential to beat us. W are back in the top division thankfully and there won't be many comfortable wins.......except the puddle drinkers.
