Away county, motherwell, St johnstone, Partick thistle.
What do we need, sad thing is we have been in front in quite a few of our last games v these teams and throw it away with some suicidal fitba, I think and I kin it's a huge huge ask we need 13 14 points minimum from these games before split.and well and Killie to have bad runs.

As much as I'd like and hope for us to get the
13/14 points I just cannae see it.
I'd settle for winning our two against Motherwell and matching or just bettering what they do for the rest would at least give us a chance.
If we're to do better than that then the aways look the best bet - if you thought Well were in freefall check out the fermers - no wins since 2nd December - plus Partick are better away than at home.
Say one thing for this season, I never thought I'd get so good at straw clutching....

We'd need at least 13/14 before the split, then another 9 after. It's not far off double the points we've got so far, depressing.
Being honest tho, I accepted before Xmas that we'd go down, just didn't see it turning round, and as much as I don't want it, I'm looking forward to it in a perverse kind of way.

We will now need a miraculous run of form, yesterday's results were a real hammer blow.
Still cannot understand our lack if urgency in the 2nd half

win them all.

We need to gradually catch up with the pack a point a week will do. We can't expect a team that was losing every week to start winning every week. Let's get behind the team on Tuesday and take it from there

A point a week will do? Have u seen the league table? Are you expecting all the teams above us to lose all their games?
We have for a long time needed to be more positive and try to WIN games, we haven't done it and are going down because of it.
Honestly think some of our fans will still be thinking we can get out of this mess when we're on the train to Dumbarton next September.

Prior to playing Killie I thought we needed 30 points (or about 2 per game on average) to the end of the season.
Nothing has changed apart from it's now only 26 points we need!

Being positive going forward is defo the key, we were positive v Killie and hammered them. I dont know about anyone else but if we r gonna go down i'd rather it was fighting and lookin like they left everything on the pitch .

Shed. My post suggested catching up the other teams a point a game not getting a point a game. That would just be enough.

Correct, Beharder: catching up be a point a week assumes other teams will win some of their games, but would sneak us above or beside two teams at least. Obviously winning on Tuesday would be massive.

Before Saturday I felt we needed 5 wins from the next 10 games (and one or two draws) to give us a chance going into the split. Nothing has changed in that respect. Tuesday must win. Think Mixu needs to take the shackles off in away games though.

Bar hearts & sheep, every one of them is winnable.
Motherwell & St.Johnstone are in freefall at the minute. Neither have won a league game in 2016. Fans are unhappy with both clubs.
'Well have lost 16 goals in 6 games.
St.Johnstone conceding average 2 goals per game too.
Both teams completely sapped of confidence.
Theres no reason we cant take the following...
Motherwell, Dundee, Caley at home = 9 pts.
Motherwell, St.johnstone, Partick away - 9pts.

Every team that's been on a bad run at some point this season has stopped the rot and picked up a clutch of points......except us
If we perform like Saturday again the season will be over very quickly

On the flip side AP, You could put Motherwell's wee resurgence down to managerial bounce.
Normal service resumed?

Can't wait until we get our new manager bounce.
