right we are a game up on dundee so im guessing the 6 points we need is assuming that the 6 points is enough if dundee win everything remaining ?

that means if we beat the pars we need three points yes

but if dundee lose to either morton on saturday or Raith on wednesday we could actually have the title won by the time we go to Ayr ?

If County drop two points tonight (at Morton) and Dundee drop two points on Saturday, a win against the Pars virtually clinches it, thanks to our GD.

county due to drop 2 as it is but surely if dundee drop 3 and lose then the title is safe?

Absolutely.... The celebrations could start straight after the Pars game.

Count can still beat us if they win the remainder of their games and we lose to Ayr and Dundee even if we win on Saturday as we'd both have 67 points at end of the season.

A draw for Dundee on Saturday would also give them a maximum 67 points.

Goal difference is like an extra point but we'll not need it.

I Believe.

We have P33 - 64 pts. Possible maximum is 73pts

Dundee have P32 - 57 pts. Possible maximum is 69pts

County have P29 - 48pts. Possible maximum is 69pts.

All other tems cannot beat our current total.

The simple math is that if we win 2 of our remaining 3 fixtures, neither County nor Dundee can catch us.

If County or Dundee draw a match, the best they can get is 67 points and based on our goal difference they would have to have a victory of 18-0 or more in there to catch us on GD so we would only have to win 1 of our 3 games.

nahh, its simple ... forget everyone else, win the next two games and the last game is a party !!!!

It's all ifs and buts

we should just concentrate on us getting maximum points.

Agreed.

County's just dropped two points at Morton, so they are effectively out of the race!!

Aye

Especially with our GD

One win would see us clinch the title over county but dundee can still make 69 so still need two wins

Go For Two Wins

Come On Caley!!

County have 6 games to play = 18 points to play for add 49 points they have = 67 points.

Dundee have 4 games to play = 12 points to play for add 57 points they have = 69 points.

We have 64 points. 3 to play.

County and Dundee are not out of it yet, mathematically which is what this thread is about.

no... Go for three wins :wacko:

After tonights game .....

ICT - P33 - 64 pts - +30 GD. Possible maximum is 73pts

DFC - P32 - 57pts - +14 GD. Possible maximum is 69pts

RC. - P30 - 49pts. +5 GD. Possible maximum is 67pts.

We need 3pts to beat County to the title - unless they increase their goal difference by +26. Another County draw would mean we need only 1 point and a County defeat puts them out of the race.

We need 5 points to beat Dundee to the title - unless they increase their goal difference by +17. A Dundee draw or loss would leave us needing just 1 win in 3 games assuming they winn all the rest.

Well done Morton, tonight.... I'd fancy them to take two points off Dundee on Saturday - maybe even 3.

The party could yet begin at 4.50pm Saturday at TCS. It's starting to look like a distinct possibility!!

Morton - I believe! First half of their double complete, we might do this on saturday in all but name and then finalise it with a beach party at Ayr. We can then spend all of mayday laughing at Dundee. Mon ICT.

All This Math Is Getting Confussing!!!

:wacko: :wacko: :wacko:

I know this is fun but if we just concentrate on ourselves and aim for our 3 wins then it will happen. On saying that good result for us but would be even better if they take something off Dundee. However all those behind us will be willing us to drop points too.

We need to beat Dunfermline first and that aint gonna be easy

We need to beat Dunfermline first and that aint gonna be easy

Agreed, let's get this one over with and then reassess.

I belive if we win on Saturday we are champions ignoring the maths Dunfermline is the hardest of our remaining three games and if we win we are champions

If we beat Dunfermline and Dundee don't beat Morton we can't be caught by Dundee.

If we beat Dunfermline and County don't beat Airdrie we can't be caught by County.

Just beat Dunfermline and see what the results are then if we have to beat Ayr. Both games are going to be damn difficult so one game at a time eh guys?
