    Relegation is a very real possibility...

    Is there anyone out there who is super confident we're staying up?

    The board seem to be, that must be the only explanation for them not taking sufficient action so far in terms of backing the manager with funds to sign the players we desperately need. Unless they wake up from their delusion pronto we are in deep deep trouble.

    No. Look at our next 6 games and look at Dunfermline's next 6. Those people who are all relaxed about relegation and don't think it is now a very real threat need to wake up sharpish.

    There can't be any of them left now, surely ?!?

    If there are, then the following applies :-

    You'll be happy to do a swap then yeah?

    I've read, on numerous occasions, on here that we won't go down because Dunfermline are so bad and our squad is one of the best in the SPL but are just under-performing. As a result, I'm supremely relaxed.

    I honestly can't remember ever having such a poor defence and unless that changes we won't win many games. That apart there's probably enough to put up some points on the board. So in answer to the question, simple unless we get a left back and two decent centre halves we are goosed.

    Unless we sign at least 3 defenders and 2 midfielders, 1 of which can have a dig from distance and has a bit of technical ability, I think its very realistic that we could go down. Dunfermline have nowt to fear. They are a smaller team than us, and all their fans see as success is staying in the SPL. Anything under 4th place is a disgrace for us IMO.

    I don't think as a whole we are a poor team, but we do have, by far, the worst defence in the SPL, in my opinion anyway, and 1 of the worst Hibs defences I've ever seen, and that's saying something too, we've had a lot of really crap defenders over the years. Of course relegation is a distinct possibility, but I'm not blaming our current manager, he has to be given the opportunity to bring defenders in, or somehow persuade good or decent defenders that Hibs is the best place for them to ply their trade, because if he doesn't we are in even deeper doodoo.

    Prior to today I would have said we would be ok, after watching that we are toiling IMO. I am also quite astonished that no one even prior to the oars game last week mentions about Dunfy having a game in hand on us aswell. They win that and we are bottom. Also I wouldnt be surprised if we are putting putting potential signings off cause they dont want to come to a team as ***** as us.

    I was sitting at the game today and started thinking maybee relegation is what we need to sort the club out (I dont wish or really believe it but it came into my head), go down, clear out, build a new squad, start winning games, bringing more fans to the games cause we are winning, get promoted with a freash outlook, unified and increased attendance etc.

    Ach the things you think when utterly disalusioned with your beloved football team.

    I'm sure they were bad goals from your defence's point of view, however I don't believe that, in general, Kilmarnock are anywhere near as bad as us when it comes to defending.

    You're currently 9 points ahead of us. We'll be lucky if we pick up that many points between now and the end of the season so I don't think there's any danger that we'll be overtaking Kilmarnock any time soon.

    That's how I feel as well, before today I was thinking we'll be ok but seeing us ship those goals so easily today and the Pars starting to pick up points (3-0 away from home!), that's worrying.

    Who is their game in hand against?

    Relegation has been a very real possibility since the dithering with Calderwood in the summer. Even then we knewour defence was weak yet we lost Dickoh and Thicot and our only addition was O'Hanlon. Complete mismanagement.

    If Dunfermline win their game in hand away to an off the boil Motherwell On tuesday we will be bottom of the league on Tuesday night. Dunfermline then go to Aberdeen next Saturday while we go to ibrox for an ass tanning, we could be 5 points adrift by 16:45 next Saturday afternoon.

    On Tuesday night.

    Motherwell's not won at home in the SPL since September, which is a run of five games without a win.

    Anyone who doesn't think its real need only look at results for the last 18months for confirmation.

    If that isn't relegation form then I don't know what is.

    Only saving grace is that I really can't see Dunfermline winning 3 on the bounce. If they do, prepare for another "great adventure"!!
