    Not one Hibs game being shown on SKY. Huge battle for third and they have picked none of the games. Also not bothered with a bottom 6 game which is crazy considering how many teams are still involved.
    I think I read somewhere they've retained two choices for the final two match weeks - they'd have to pick a bottom six Sunday game for instance, but don't know where best to place it yet.

    Still, you're right, what an absolutely stinking TV deal where not one of the Hibs-Aberdeen/United fixtures are televised.

    A draw would be fine away to Aberdeen. A win would be incredible especially if Celtic beat Dundee United.

    More than happy with how the fixtures have worked out. Think we play Rangers and Celtic at good times in the split and while we have a 3pt lead over United and Aberdeen get them out the way early.

    It's wrong to play 3 times away at one venue in a season.

    The fomat is flawed and we are the ones who have lost out....does this mean that St Mirren will have had 20 home games. Why should they get 20 home games when we have finished 3rd before the split. Talk about not rewarding achievement.

    It's also suspect us playing Aberdeen first. Is this how the compter did it, or are the SPFL looking to squeeze the league points totals asap.

    I don't fear playing Aberdeen away. I just think it stinks a bit.
    Due to the cup games we'll be at Celtic Park four times this season. That's hellish but simply unlucky

    As you say, going to the same venue three times in the league is just plain wrong.

    If everything is done and dusted and we already have 3rd place secured give The Rangers zero and make walk ups £15.

    My final points total guess based on the fixture list is:

    Hibs 59
    Dundee United 57
    Aberdeen 54

    That seems like an excellent result tbh?

    A win at pittodrie pretty much seals it imo, but a draw is ok. And even a loss would be a blow but given our goal difference it means we only have to match them after that to get over the line.

    Pleasantly surprised by how things have fallen.

    I'd have thought so, would require a huge swing provided Celtic beat Utd. There's no way we'd lose our last 4 fixtures. Huge game.

    Beat Dundee United at home plus avoiding defeat to Aberdeen and St Mirren will be enough for 3rd in my opinion. We would likely be 3 points ahead of 4th with a healthy goal difference going into the final game.

    Delighted with that. I was worried I would be working for a few of them but asked to photograph the Dons game, should be able to get back for Utd game in time and then free for the others. Great result for Hibs and me.

    Good that we’re playing Celtic after they will have the league wrapped up. Certainly improves our chances of getting something.

    The BBC have us and Motherwell down as ending up with 20 away games and 18 home, can't find the split online to confirm this but reading above that is wrong?

  14. #133
    Happy with that... what a potential prize.

    Beat the Dons and create a record 18 unbeaten and with Untd likely beaten By Celtic looking to close out a title party pretty much wrap up 3rd

    It's wrong, for us at least.

    Here is the current table, split between home and away.

    Shock horror Killie and Hertz get 3 home games which will probably keep them up especially Killie
    Hearts can't go down I don't think, not everyone can pick up enough points to drop them into the playoffs.

    Cheers, I couldn't find one online, but assumed it was wrong as we still had Tynecastle to go to, if they weren't languishing in the bottom half :-)

    The BBC sports coverage is abysmal these days.

    It does look right for Motherwell mind, so I assume another team are benefitting.

    Stick Dundee Utd fans high up in the south too. They put us now in the worst away section in the premiership, antiqued shed behind the goals

  19. #138
    Yeah, Motherwell fans are the losers - they have only 18 home games and 20 away.

    St Mirren get 20 home games.

    It’s on. 5 defeats for the jambos, and everyone (except hearts) beating St Johnstone works 👍

    Long shot but you never know!

    The shed at Tannadice is great imo.

    Which probably makes sense in top 6 as they have no advantage to gain, although sure if we lose there it will still feel sore.

    I said on Saturday win 2 games or don't lose to either of the other 2 and we are nearly there so probably not the worst order, although slightly miffed as visiting my Aberdeen supporting mate on 03/05 so was hoping for HIbs up there that day.

    Aberdeen will come after us like demons at Pittodrie. They'll want to end our run and they know a win is essential if they're to stand a chance of 3rd.

    Bring it on! Our pace filled side will have a field day on the counter attack

    Having our two direct rivals first up gives us the opportunity to seal it within two weeks though.

    Better than, say, losing to Celtic in the opening game before heading to bogey ground Paisley.

    Let’s go for it head on.
    it's not really that much of a Bogey Ground for us

    since 2000/2001 in games in Paisley it's..

    P-31
    St Mirren wins - 8
    Hibernian wins - 13
    Draws - 10

    even the last dozen games in Paisley it's..
    St Mirren wins - 2
    Hibernian wins - 7
    Draws - 3

    They can- it happened to us in 2014.

    Both have had 16 home games so far, so that seems fair to me.

    Good they are not on SKY.

    Will boost ticket sales.
    Still could end up on viaplay/ premier sports

    If they do we'll pick them off going the other way.

    We're a better side than Aberdeen, doesn't always mean you'll win a game, but if they come at us hell for leather it will work in our favour.

    Will take those fixtures, get 6 points in the first two then 3rd should be, teams will drop points somewhere.

    Huns last game should be a cracker and one i hope we have reduced their allocation.
