Relegation watch (Estimated Relegation Date.......... TODAY!)

[Northernhibee]

Thought I'd start a weekly tracker to keep a track of whether the dream of us being the team that relegates that lot is still alive. The earliest date is a bit inaccurate as it's just assuming that the teams above them will score three points and doesn't take into account that they will likely play each other anyway, so it's likely to be a fair bit later in the league. Here we go :greengrin


Points behind nearest rival: 14 (Ross County - Ross County have one game in hand)
Points still to pick up: 66
Earliest approximate date that the yams can be relegated: 15th Feb vs ICT
Closest derby: 29th March @ Tynecastle (six games after the ICT game).

The dream is still on :greengrin

[Mikey]

29th March is a cert :agree:

[Irish_Steve]

Aye, I cert we have the chance to send them down and ****** it up!

[Pretty Boy]

I've got a real feeling we will get a chance to relegate them.

Whether we take the chance is another matter. Someone is going to get the pleasure so here's hoping it is us.

[NORTHERNHIBBY]

15th February against ICT would do me fine like.

[GreenCastle]

Could you imagine having the chance to go to the PBS to offiically confirm them being down :bye::brokenyam::lolyam:@gdown::cheerio:

That would be pretty epic!

However I am more concerned about our own form right now and beating them on the 2nd as having lost twice to them already this season is unacceptable!!

I am also slightly worried about Ross County and Killie and the form they are in. County have some very hard games coming up.

There are also questions to ask - will the yams visit on the 2nd Jan be the last time at ER for a while ? Or will we be bottom 6 and have another chance to beat them before May at ER in the league ??

[Magnifique]

Aye, I cert we have the chance to send them down and ****** it up!

No chance a Butcher team will be as soft as we have in the past.

Ross County can and will strengthen in the January window - Killie will get short term loans in. Hearts can't and won't sign anybody and will lose a couple of players. I am already hearing that Walker might be away and he can talk to teams in January (they would get a development fee I think).

Hearts will go down :agree:

[Northernhibee]

Doing some further calculations...

zero-seven...6-2....carry the one...pi...divide by the first number you think of...

Yep, they're *****.

Big team, big frauds, BIG deficits.

[VivaHiberña]

If they are 16 points (or more) behind 2nd bottom on the 29th of March the Roseburn Relegation Party is on.

They are currently 14 points behind.

Pweasing.

[yeezus.]

Excellent idea for a thread - it's certainly one I will be keeping an eye on. I have a feeling they will be relegated very early on to join their friends Sevco in the first division.

They have Celtic away and Kilmarnock at home - two games they won't pick up any points from. Can't remember the last time Kilmarnock lost at the PBS.

Although i think they will go down before way play in march i still think we will have a say in it somehow

Is it too much to ask that we do our bit by actually beating them in January?

That Killie game is another huge game for them...Killie win or draw and you will see even more infighting from across the road and Direct Debits cancelled and crowds drop in early 2014 - especially if we do beat them!!

Having beaten Aberdeen twice also this season you can guarantee McInnes surely won't let it happen again.

Reckon they will already be down by the time we go back to Tynecastle.

Just as long as we help them on their way on the 2nd.


Wish it could be a hammering but we don't have the players (yet) to give anyone a hammering.

Hibs 2, Hearts 0.


PS

Great thread.

[Jack Hackett]

Excellent thread.

:agree:

I wouldn't go so far as to suggest a countdown clock, with time being added every time they managed to claw a point though














......or would I? :greengrin

[The Falcon]

Hearts will go down :agree:


How would the development fee work? Should it not be paid to pre-admin Hearts as opposed to the current set up? Where all contracts not amended in return for a pay cut when they entered admin?

anybody clarify?

[GreenCastle]

Can the out of contract yams players be offered new contracts while in admin? Not like they have any money to do so!

[Greencore]

The fact is they think they will just pop back up next season. No, rangers will be I. That league... But, but the play offs... Hmm.. Sorry but if they are still in admin by the start of next season I think that's Another 12 points, or even automatic relegation. Oh well too bad lolol

[NAE NOOKIE]

I will be happy if we can just beat them on the 2nd.

Watched the 2nd half of their game with ICT on ALBA and they were utterly rank, they have a manager who's idea of tactics appears to be standing in front of the dugout looking like he knows the game is up clapping his hands and shouting c'mon! every 5 minutes. In fact he might as well be in the stand beside the numpty in the wheatfield who screamed C'mmmmmmoooooonnnnnn hearts !!!!!! like a demented looney every 5 minutes during the TV coverage.

In fact watching that last night the ground looked depressing, the manager looked depressed, the crowd looked depressed and the players looked depressed.

It was brilliant :greengrin

Don't forget we had Latapy, Sauzee and co in Div 1 to help us get out first time - not on cheap money!

Sevco, Hamilton, Dundee, Raith, Falkirk, Livi and possibly Dunfermline may all be in Div 1 next season...tasty! All with experienced pros and youth with a point to prove!

[Hibbyradge]

Hearts are 14 points adrift after 16 games.

Basically, they've kept in touch with their rivals up till now. I don't expect much to change as the season progresses so they will be relegated round about the time of the split.

Our game is 2 weeks prior...

If this turns out to be the case, we could probably be offered 3 sides of the ground and could fill them twice times over. How many Yams are going to attend that match?

I might even go down their hospitality route. Fire up your Calor Gas heaters!

[Coco Bryce]

We had our lads Christmas night out on Saturday and this was discussed, think we will probably be doing this :agree:

[Liams]

Just a wee update for everyone! Hearts yet to be relegated today however i will keep everyone updated with there progress

[The Sea-gull]

Think threads like this can come and bite you like the many "we're going to thrash them threads" that appear before every derby. In the last 40 years I think we have pumped them three times - 7-0, 6-2 and 3-0 in the millenium derby though the latter is clutching at straws in terms of being classed as a pumping.

It's not looking good for them but they seem to have a habit of wriggling out of things just as they are about to reach rock bottom. Killie are still struggling financially and rumours of their administration won't go away. If they go into admin during the season then they lose 15 points which would open it right up to a level playing field.

As things stand they do look doomed though. Ross Co and Killie can't get consistency going and I could see Partick tumble but it looks as though Hearts won't win enough games to make up the deficit unless they go on a wee run and get a bit of confidence.

As with most teams, the festive period can really shape a season. They have Celtic away, Killie at home, St Mirren away, Us away and Partick at home accross a 15 day period from this Saturday until Sunday 5th Jan. They'll be targetting 3 points from the games v Killie, us and Patrick and if they get the 9 points it will change the picture entirely.

I see them losing to Celtic, Killie and St Mirren but maybe taking soemthing v Partick. That leaves the game v us. Surely we are not going to lie down to them yet again.

[Caversham Green]

With respect to the OP this is a chronic thread.

Did you know that the word chronic relates to time rather than badness, so a chronic illness is long-term, but not necessarily severe?

This thread is likely to last for a few months and conceivably until May next year, so in relative terms it probably is chronic - but good.

[PatHead]

Was chatting to the resident Jambo at work who said that it is just as well they didn't get relegated last season because he doesn't think the current Hearts team would have got promoted.

Don't think that their squad will improve significantly over the next year so they have that to look forward.

He is resigned to them getting relegated as they are the worst team since the early eighties in his words.

[#FromTheCapital]

It's odds on that they'll get relegated, but I won't be celebrating just yet (even though a fat lady did sing on the x-factor last night).

There are at least two other teams in the league who are equally as bad as hear7s and they all have to play each other several more times before the end of the season. All it takes is for a few flukey wins against killie and ross county and they're right back in it. These are the only games that really matter anymore for them, obviously they'll still need to scrape a few points here and there but its by no means impossible.

[RIP]

My Jambo at work reckons if they hadn't been deducted 15 points and we had kept Fenlon we would have been favourites to compete for relegation

The have resorted to ifs and buts now

What is it now with Hibs - nine weeks without an SPL win, two or three SPL goals since September?

1/20 bookie speak for "it's all over" as we approach the half way point in the season.

[21.05.2016]

Hopefully another demoralising, humiliating hammering tomorrow and defeat on the 2nd. Hearts have absolutely no confidence or moral atm but a win against us would give them a much needed lift that could galvanise them a bit so we absolutely have to beat them. If they are still on minus points in january then relegation is a dead cert.

[HibbyAndy]

Not a hope in hell these ***** are beating us on the 2nd..You have used up all your luck in the league cup game you spawny bassas!!

Bet365 relegation odds are now:

Hearts 1/33
Ross County 12/1
Kilmarnock 22/1

The little football software tool that I use predicts that Yams will finish on +10 points at the end of the season.

Double pleasing!

It's starting to look extremely grim for Los Yambolinos as some bookies are no longer accepting bets on the 'To Finish Bottom' market. BetVictor being one who obviously have a huge liability :agree:

Anyway, my wee software predictor algorithm now reckons that the Yams will accumulate a total of 7 (yes, SEVEN) points by the seasons end. It predicts that Partick Thistle will finish 2nd bottom on 28 points. That's a gap of 21 between the bottom two sides :faf:.

The bookmakers aren't daft and use similar predictive software models rather than read the daily EEN/Scotsman spewings.

GIRFUY

I'm no mathematician but I think even if Ross County never won another point, the Yams would still need to win one game in every four.

I'm looking forward to the next few weeks as that increases to a time when they need to win one in two.
Then every game.
Then the big day.
The tears.
The falling to their knees.
The saluting the few fans that have stayed behind.

They are murder but I still wouldn't dismiss the possibility that they'll win next week.

Our record at Easter Road in general is atrocious and the less said about our derby record the better.

We SHOULD beat them but after what's happened in the last two games against them this season, I'm making no bold statements.

[NadeAteMyLunch!]

They're expecting a pumping!! We NEED to stand up and be counted for once. Shame in a way that the Jambos demise has happened in a season where we've struggled more than any other to score. Would love if their pathetic fall from grace had happened when we had Russell running the midfield, or Gaz and Deeks firing in goals from everywhere or even last season when we still had Leigh. We deserve to embarrass them

Our record at Easter road is bad because we lack confidence and I don't understand why you're bringing any sort of derby record chat into this as it's irrelevant. Do you know why they have such a good record?

I agree that a win for us isn't guaranteed. In general, we toil against teams that park the bus and invite us onto them. Hearts toil when they are at home as they are expected to attack but they do relatively OK away from home. Nothing is expected of them, they defend and hit on the break.

Best case scenario is an early goal, their heads drop and we thump them. Worst case is exactly what happened in the cup game.

Ach, **** it. Lightning surely can't strike three times in one season and the cream will eventually rise to the top. Dr Butcher will have the boys prepared mentally and we will thump them after we take care of their daddies at the weekend :aok:

[AndyM_1875]

If we are professional and don't do anything bloody stupid then we will win on January 2.

They'll be long relegated before we play them again at the end of March and setting up for having to play Championship football.
You get what you pay for (apparently they now have the smallest wage budget in the league) and I expect nothing other than a comfortable, routine Hibs win in March.

Their players are badly drilled, drift out of position, most aren't technically good enough and mentally they are gone already.
You cannot expect a team made up of mainly young players to take the sort of weekly gubbings they are getting and it not to have an effect.
To be fair it's a little unfair on the younger ones as they have been brought up in the U20s over he last couple of years to play the ball on the deck but now they are playing for the first team Locke has them humping long, aimless balls to (usually) one forward as quickly as he can to give respite to an untrustworthy defence.
If they do that on January 2 as I expect they will then it's meat and drink to big Michael Nelson & co in the Hibs rearguard who will just give it to our midfield and set up another attack.

The last team I recall speaking like that about was Gretna.
For all but the most deluded Jambos, the reality of relegation is sinking in.

[green day]

They have a thread on JKB where a few straw clutchers are saying we are crap, always lose to them, 5-1 1902 etc.

The funny thing is - it is only one or two of them, not the usual 'we are so confident as our derby record is the best in the world etc' - I think we need to be 100% professional and we get a result.

They have fluked two results this season when the players were all over the place, not confident on account of our management team.

Lets see what the bookies think - they are rarely wrong.

[GreenCastle]

That was a good win for Killie yesterday - not just a 1v0 but 4v0 will give Killie confidence.

It's looking likely Ross County will be the team they chase - looking at the form guide - County really need to start picking up a few points in the next few weeks - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/tables

If you look at the fixtures for the yams till end of January / start of Feb...they need to start picking up points very soon..

St Mirren - A - St Mirren got a good result yesterday so you think confidence would be high.
Hibs - A - Derby and yes they have beaten us twice already - but surely not 3 times plus Butcher will want to create a good derby record

Partick - H - Partick know a win in this game could make them nearly safe for another season
Motherwell - H - Motherwell going for 2nd right now and doing well
St J - A - Not an easy place to go - but they might scrape something here
Ross County - A - This could really be the game that widens the game and sends them down (although not mathematically).

February....

Cup Semi v ICT and league game v ICT - I hope Yogi turns them over twice - surely they can't make the final :rolleyes:

Then Celtic at Tynie - surely an away win....

I predict January and February could be nightmare months for them....lets do our part on the 2nd January please and let the suffering continue and see the Direct Debits cancelled :greengrin

[Sir David Gray]

Our record at Easter road is bad because we lack confidence and I don't understand why you're bringing any sort of derby record chat into this as it's irrelevant. Do you know why they have such a good record?

OK, we lack confidence. Is that not a valid reason to highlight concerns ahead of next week? :confused:

Also, I don't see how it's irrelevant to mention our derby record. When a side has such a bad record against a particular team, it's normally something which gets mentioned in the lead up to the game.

I hope you're right and we do score an early goal and then we're in for a comfortable night. I've just seen it all before where derby games are concerned. I've been to games against them in the past where eleven traffic cones in maroon jerseys would have beaten us.

I just hope that's a thing of the past.

The derby record is an important point, because it sticks in the players heads, and its stuck in the minds of the fans.

The Edinburgh Derby haunts me because its usually absolutely woeful and we normally lose.

Even though Hearts are stuffed, they will still come to ER on the 2nd and expect the win.

[Shearer]

Anyone certain of a hibs win obviously hasn't been to many derbies in the last 20 years or so! Talk about having the Indian sign over us

fixed that for you

worth dragging this story up, seeing as they owe Heriot Watt £300-£500k, theirs is far from a victimless crime.

[Dashing Bob S]

There are main three factors cited on here, and by our Kickback chums.

1. Our poor derby record over the last 30 years. -Irrelevant, as this has related solely to the spending discrepancies over this period. On a level playing field. we usually turn them over. Any Hibs player who feels inferiour to this very poor bunch of frightened children should never play for the club again. And under Butcher, they probably won't.

2. Our poor home record. This is a factor. I'm hoping we forget it and sign off on that embarrassment of '13 at ER.

3. The most important - we cannot score goals. Yes, it could easily be 0-0, but Hearts (or any other side) can sucker punch a team that can't put them away, even if they have almost zero scoring capability themselves.

However, I expect a 1-0 or 2-0 Hibs win. It would be great to hammer them, but I can't see it, basically because I don't see this tea, hammering anybody.

This is the most important part. Last derby we battered them for the first 20/25 mins like I've rarely seen before - they were terrible - but we just couldn't score.

In that game the longer it went on the more belief they had and then cue tattoo man to score out of no where = Hibs players bottled it and Fenlon had no Plan B.

An early goal will be massive - but the stats show we really don't have the players to hammer them like they deserve.

We do have a stronger back 4 than last game plus a more confident midfield and strikers looking more dangerous than before.

They won't have more possession than us and a flukey goal or McDonald having another game of his life!

IMHO if we get 1, we'll likely get a few. Expect Hibs will come out of the blocks and batter them senseless in the early stages, knowing that an early goal could open the door to a few more. The Yams will be forced to chase the game. The flip side is we don't get the early breakthrough, crowd get anxious and the Yams smell blood.

[21.05.2016]

We SHOULD beat them, they are absolutely rank rotten and although we are not a great side, we are significantly better than them. However, i've supported hibs long enough to know that even when we have had far better teams than them, they can still beat us.

Even though Locke is inept, there's more than just him at the PBS to stoke the 'Hatred of Hibs' up - gash as they are, they'll still come to ER fired-up. Remember the effect of the 'Tattooed-Freak's one-off in the LC ?? - ALL of our players heads instantly went down. TB has to drill it into our boys that, man-for-man, we are the better players/club !!

[21.05.2016]

Terry Butcher will have us fired up as he is that sort of character but as said before, any hibs player who doesn't know the importance of this game and can't get themselves fired up may as well just leave the club now. It'll come down to attitude and many times in the past they have had a better will to win and desire than us. Hopefully though their young boys have taken a big confidence knocking over the past few weeks though. We have absolutely no reason to fear them, there is nobody in their team that we should be seeing as a big threat. Get the likes of Zoubir and Cairney running at them and they will panic.


They were lucky, jammy *******s last time at ER. We ran circles around them and were very unlucky with chances and they got lucky in the end. Hopefully this time they are out of luck and we can put away our chances. If Killie can manage to put 4 past them on their own patch then I don't see why we can't score against them.

He's no the sharpest tool in the box is Oor Gary, although he's definitely a tool of some sort.

[The Falcon]

This may have already been pointed out but the next game (for them) will mark the half way mark for the season and their best case scenario would be that they enter the New Year, and the derby game, on zero points and 11 behind Ross County. With all the bravado and bluster coming out of Tynie during the close season I suspect this is not where they envisaged they would be.

Of course they didn't especially with the greatest young players in the country. I get the impression they all thought it was going to be a doddle and come the start of Feb they'd bring in more experienced pro's to help them along and they would be safe.

How wrong could they of been.

It wouldn't surprise me if they became even more bitter and twisted and played the - we've no got enough players to fulfill our fixtures - and didn't put out a team.

You're all wrong. Relegation is a good thing now, and will be the best thing since sliced bread.

They'll have 500% higher turnover than the "diddies" they'll be up against too. Also the Championship is better than the Premiership too.

In retrospect, their entire season has to be seen as a massive own goal. If they had taken administration last season when it was obvious that it was going to happen eventually, they would now be playing in the championship and possibly in contention for a play off place. Their vanity and ego dictated that they would play out their admin year in the top league with the result that they have to play out the following year in the company of the sevconians in a league they cant win.

[AndyM_1875]

They'll be in a league next year that they cannot win as Rangers will rip through that league.
Play offs win then? Hmm.. Maybe not. I'd fancy Dundee , Raith and Hamilton this year over them so that would be far from certain. But assuming they got past one of them they would likely have to play someone like Ross County or St Mirren who would have been playing better teams all year.

Easy to fall out of the Premiership, very hard to get back. We might have to play friendlies or revive the Wilson Cup or the Festival Cup if we are to play them again in the next couple of years, assuming Hibs want to and I'm not sure what the club thinks on that.

I was in the company of a very good friend this afternoon and he happens to be a Yam.... Not a rub your nose in it type but a good guy who slagged me after the 1-5 game (fair dos) but he's totally embarrassed by all this admin and begging bowl stuff.

He is of the opinion that they should of been relegated last season but did the dirty on Dundee.

He also cannot see them getting into double figures the way they are playing but predicts a 0-1 victory for them on Thurs (tongue and cheek).

Today the yams are 1/50 to finish bottom with william hill.

Yeh .... But dont be surprised if in the summer the SPFL announce a new league structure with a 14 team PL .... That will guarantee the Yams and Sevco promotion to the PL at the end of the season. Celtc will be desperate to have Sevco back in the PL by then because if all of their ST holders who have failed to turn up for games this season dont renew for next they are going to take a massive hit in the pocket. They need The The Rangers a hell of a lot more than the rest of us by the looks of things.

Unfortunately coz The The Rangers will be in the Championship next year they will beat our all time season attendance record for that division.

Not seen that before - but thinking about it - this could make it ever harder to come up next season from the Championship.

If 11th somehow goes down - you could have Ross County, Sevco, the yams, Falkirk, Raith, Livi, Dunfermline all in the same league! :greengrin

Hearts will be bottom half next season.

Meanwhile across the city they are making plans for their relegation to what they describe is the best league in the country and believe they are and will be 90% bigger than the majority of teams in the SPFL.

They have also discussed who they could sign and see Billy Mackay and Stevie May as viable options.

Wonder where the cash is coming to buy them.

Delusions of grandeur from those deluded roasters.

:faf: Why the hell would Billy McKay or Stevie May want to leave top flight clubs to go and play for hearts in the championship?
Its no wonder they're in such a state with a fan base like that. Open your eyes ya bunch of fannies.

Maybe some "rich" Russian / Lithuanian resident has been in touch with Hearts ambassador and all round leg end Fatty Foulkes and told them to prepare for world domination based on his untold of wealth? There will be an opportunity for assorted plums to turn up and kiss his ass. :greengrin

So, they got a point today. Have they ordered the Open Topped Bus yet?

[brog]

Yet another Locke interview begins with "I'm not making any excuses".

In today's SM he says "it's difficult at the moment with the amount of injuries & the lack of money but I'm not making excuses" Yes you are you clown! Amount of injuries, 2 first team, 1 reserve keeper & a young boy who a week ago he said was not a 1st team player! Compare that to our 5 first team players who were injured today!

[#FromTheCapital]

I'm still a wee bit concerned about Ross county, they really are pish. Obviously hearts are as well but they've still to play each other three more times. Hopefully county use the January window to strengthen as hear7s don't have that option.

Halfway through the season and they've managed to reduce the deficit by a whole 2 points so fairly confident they'll be going down, but on the face of it half a season to make up 13 points isn't impossible.

[yeezus.]

Ah yes that all makes sense, its all about Hibs, not about how ****** they are.

So they are not grasping that with 50% of the season gone, even winning the 20th game of the 38 available only puts them on 1point.

Yes, Ross County are mince, but hearts will then only have 18 games to make up the deficit.

Can none of them add?

[21.05.2016]

The derby will come down to how WE turn up. We have better players and a better team but if we don't turn up with the belief and right attitude then we will fall. Hopefully todays win has given us a big confidence booster going into the derby. We have absolutely no reason to fear them so I just hope we don't bottle it on the night. Although with Butcher in charge, he'll have them (hopefully) going in confident, fearless and totally fired up.

[Waxy]

If they do the same second half they'll catch Ross county, but only if Ross county lose every single game.
In other world they've no chance of staying up.

[147lothian]

They got 5 booked yesterday, its about a squad, if we turn up on Thurs they will still have less points than the tempreture in January lets bring out the turkey for a roasting!

[Dashing Bob S]

I'm delighted that Hearts will be in a different division from us next season as I'm terrified at the prospect of facing a May-MacKay strikeforce in the maroon jerseys. You only have to look at this seasons astonishing success of the Boyd-Goodwillie partnership at Tynecastle, and this one promises to be even more fantastic...or fantastical.

What's the latest on when these PERVERTS are likely to be relegated now the gap is SIXTEEN points and they are still on MINUS TWO.

[PatHead]

Another day - another ZERO points for the Yams. Pleasing.

Bet365 relegation odds are now:

Hearts 1/33
Ross County 12/1
Kilmarnock 22/1
Partick 40/1

The little football software tool that I use predicts that Yams will finish on +10 points at the end of the season.

Double pleasing!

How is your tool looking now Sergey?

[StevieC]

What's the latest on when these PERVERTS are likely to be relegated now the gap is SIXTEEN points and they are still on MINUS TWO.

As it stands, and assuming they are unable to close the distance on Ross County, Partick could officially relegate them on the 5th April.

[Mikey]

As it stands, and assuming neither Ross County or Hearts gain any more points, Partick could officially relegate them on the 5th April.

One week earlier sounds much better to me :wink:

[Sergey]

How is your tool looking now Sergey?

Erect :wink:

The point and the away goal against St. Mirren hasn't really done a lot to bolster their chances, at least if the software predictor is anything to go by.

End of season reads...

Yams 12 points
Partick Thistle 24 points
Ross County 32 points
Kilmarnock 42 points
St. Mirren 45 points

(FWIW - It has us in 7th on 58 points)

Edit: Our position is based on all our SPL results for the season to date.

[Itsnoteasy]

We should play the D ream song the morrow. THINGS CAN ONLY GET BETTER. GIRFUY

[Wakeyhibee]

What's the latest on when these PERVERTS are likely to be relegated now the gap is SIXTEEN points and they are still on MINUS TWO.

The earliest mathmatically possible is 22nd Feb when they play Celtic,

if all teams continue to pick up the same points as they are now (averages) then 1st game after the split

hopfully it will be 2 games before this when we send them packing.

[Waxy]

Bet365 have the yams at 1/100 after todays win for Ross.(Derby get called Derby)
Free money still.

For us to send them down on the 29th March fixture, they have to be between 16-21 points adrift of the second bottom team on that date.

As things stand now, they are 16 points behind already, so its looking good :hilarious We just have to hope theres no dramatic improvement, (or total collapse, ironically) over the next 12 SPL games.

There is no way they will get 12 pts.

In any event they will be bust by end Feb and heading for second division....imo.

[StevieC]

For us to send them down on the 29th March fixture, they have to be between 16-21 points adrift of the second bottom team on that date.

To be "officially" relegated they need to be 19 points adrift by full time on the 29th. Ross County are away to Celtic that day, and Killie away to Motherwell, so probably means 19 points adrift going into the game. It might be a chance to put another nail in the coffin but unlikely to "officially" relegate them.

In my scenario above, (16-21 points behind that weekend)a derby defeat will definitely relegate them. It doesnt matter what the other teams above them do, they'll be 19 points behind with only 18 to play for.

[StevieC]

They won't be 19 points adrift on 16-18 points if the other teams can't win away from home. They'll be on the same points difference they were on going into the game.

[Billy Whizz]

When do Hearts play County/Partick next?

[hibsbollah]

They won't be 19 points adrift on 16-18 points if the other teams can't win away from home. They'll be on the same points difference they were on going into the game.

:dunno: youve lost me a bit. No worries either way, we'll just have to see what happens. It'll be fun, regardless.

[Nevi_SOL]

I think he is referring to all teams would have lost the chance to pick up the 3 points so therfore h****s even if they win all the their next fixtures could only pick up a maximum of 18

So it wouldn't relegate them as they would need to be 19 points adrift at full time. It's not us beating them that inflicts the 3 points damage its the closest team winning .. unless you are suggesting we will be 2nd bottom by the end of March? :eek:

Cmon the Hibees.
Lets dent their goal difference.

[Mikey]

So the ideal scenario would be for them to fall 19 points adrift on Saturday 29th March and for our game against them to be shifted to Sunday 30th March. If we beat them they're down!

I'd be surprised if they last that long though to be honest. They would pretty much have to match the teams "just" above them for another 12 weeks.

Hopefully Hibs fans come come up with something special/novelty to mark the occasion.

[Waxy]

Ross county and Partick wont let up.They need to avoid 2nd bottom so they will continue to fight like lions for every point.
I reckon the yams will already be down by the time we play them.

[SmashinGlass]

The long and the short of it is that even if Partick and Ross County amass no more points between now and the end of the season, the yams will need to win 1/3 of their remaining games to survive. It ain't gonna happen. GIRFUY yam *****!!

[21.05.2016]

Will take a miracle to save them now, can't see that team winning a lot of games. Relegation party at tynecastle on the 29th guys!

[GreenCastle]

Hopefully Ross County win tomorrow against St J and Partick beat the yams at Tynie on Sunday :agree: Would make the gap even bigger :greengrin

It's a huge 4 weeks for the yams...could be season over a month today if league results don't work out and ICT knock them out the semi final of the league cup.

Would be then interesting to see their crowds and DD's for FOH :lolyam:

:agree: BDO are just not doing their jobs. There are real revenue earning opportunities here. Free up an extra stand at the PBS for Hibs fans and start selling tickets NOW or better still get the match moved to a bigger ground .... like Easter Road :greengrin

If there's a chance of Hibs putting them down at that match, there will be huge sections of empty seats, and huge demand from Hibs fans.

[VivaHiberña]

This thread could do with a bump.

It's not us beating them that inflicts the 3 points damage its the closest team winning .. unless you are suggesting we will be 2nd bottom by the end of March? :eek:

Hearts will go into the game with 21 points left to play for. If they are 19 points behind 11th and Hearts and whoever is in 11th both lose they would be still be 19 points behind but with only 18 points left to play for, so we can relegate them regardless of the other results that day. I can see myself wanting them to win in the weeks running up to it in the hope they don't get relegated 'too soon', as it were, not that we wouldn't have a wee party in the Roseburn stand anyway. Bye bye, Jam Tarts :bye:.

If County win their game in hand and then match the yams for the remaining games before 29/3.....

Not saying it can't happen but their game in hand is v Celtic IIRC

[Baker9]

I'm sure there was a time around the late 50s early 60s when Hearts threw a game at Tynecastle and allowed us to draw in the last few minutes for the point we needed to avoid relegation. I think we should take that spirit into the game on the 29th. Let's rent Tynecastle for £100,000, paid upfront, give them the main stand (I'm certainly not sitting in it) and we take the other 3 sides turning into a home game. Their season ticket holders in our parts of the ground would have to give up their usual seats but if that helps them to survive for another few weeks then I'm sure they will happily do that. We should behave impeccably and keep goal celebrations to a minimum - true Hibs class.

I think the Hearts fans would love and respect us for doing this and think well of us for decades to come. This would give us all that happy glow like Terry wants us to have.

Somewhere in that run there is a home game against St. Mirren to fit in. I can't see them picking up many points from that run.

Dooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooon.

I reckon a grand total of 0 points out of those games.

:agree:

[Aldo]

I reckon a grand total of 4 points out of those games.

That just isn't fair at all. Only 4 points. Surely the deserve more for than that cos they have just bairns in the team. O and the fans deserve a lot more cos they've been punished enough.

Very pleasing indeed.

It would be very handy for all the Jambos looking in if everyone were to copy my signature. :aok:

[Bobo]

We should play the D ream song the morrow. THINGS CAN ONLY GET BETTER. GIRFUY


They are Donald Ducked!!!!

Their next few fixtures are:

Home to Partick
Home to Well
Away to St Johnstone
Away to Ross County
Away to ICT
Home to Celtic
Away to Well
Home to Aberdeen
Home to Dundee Utd
Away to Killie
Home to Hibs

Somewhere in that run there is a home game against St. Mirren to fit in. I can't see them picking up many points from that run.

Be great if they get themselves into the record books for having the lowest points total ever by failing to surpass the 13 SPL points Gretna managed .... Now that would be a perfect legacy and permanent reminder of what a shower of cheating bawbags they really are :aok:

In previous seasons it was just bottom down - so teams may switch off after the split.

This season no one wants to come 2nd bottom = can see teams staying focused till end of the season = yams will struggle even more :greengrin

They might get more as I reckon partick are getting worse. I wouldn't be surprised to see a hearts win tomorrow.

Partick have just strengthened though, by bringing in Lyle Taylor. Have the Yams signed anyone?
