Just my opinion but i think we will be going into the Hibs game at Ibrox knowing a win clinches us the league and it leaves the 2 also rans to fight it out on last day to see who gets 2nd and the CL qualifying spot.

Just out of curiosity are there any permutations that allow us to lift the trophy at CP?
07 Apr 2026 17:02:59
Not unless Celtic and Hearts both lose next three. And I suspect Hearts would still have a small chance.
07 Apr 2026 19:39:30
If so, I doubt it would happen anyhow.

Why are we away to Falkirk 3 times in a season.
07 Apr 2026 15:35:00
Because Falkirk surpassed computer predictions, they finished 6.
That was known at the beginning of the season as a possible outcome. Computer had predicted Falkirk would be in play off position.
07 Apr 2026 16:00:59
It's nonsense, if only they had someone with a brain, very easy to make it 2 away games to Falkirk and nobody could or would complain, no way they can explain this and even get close to sounding sane.
It's just as stupid and unfair with the promotion play offs, to protect some diddy outfit like Kilmarnock every season.
07 Apr 2026 16:08:28
Bigger, so we would have 20 home games and 18 away, and u say no one would complain, wetting myself laughing.
07 Apr 2026 19:41:25
And Rangers, Hearts and Celtic playing in the city for possible title day. Clearly not stupid and unfair when you think about.
07 Apr 2026 21:32:02
Falkirk are the lowest ranked team in the top 6 also, so they were always going to be the 3rd away game. Having gone to Motherwell, Hibs, and Hearts twice already before the split also.

I see my error now, but the response lacked class, but some people are like that, unfortunately.
07 Apr 2026 13:23:57
Motherwell, Hearts, mob, Hibs Falkirk.
07 Apr 2026 13:34:56
15 points my friend. 🏆
07 Apr 2026 16:04:55
We won't get 15 from that, but probably don't need it. I think 13 will do it if Gorgie do what I think they will.
07 Apr 2026 17:16:16
Absolutely Aphe. 👍 👍
07 Apr 2026 17:19:20
Fork, I am genuinely excited. What Danny has done is nothing short of remarkable.
07 Apr 2026 19:28:52
We're in the hunt. 👍
07 Apr 2026 19:38:01
We are Fork, this is what a title challenge looks like.
07 Apr 2026 20:04:37
Personally can't see any of the top three not dropping points in the run-in.
07 Apr 2026 13:16:50

Win.
Tough win.
Easy win.
Win.
Celebratory win. 😎

Liking your positivity, MPH. I'll be honest with you, I really believe we are the only team (of the 3 contenders) that can win all of their remaining games. 🔴⚪🔵 🏆
07 Apr 2026 12:24:37
According to Daily Record our fixtures are:
Motherwell - home
Hearts - away
Celtic - away
Hibs - home
Falkirk - away
The 2 back to back against the other 2 are pivotal and wed need to at least win 1 and draw 1 imo

I posted a few weeks back about the impact that the Greek Super League could have on our automatic CL qualification chances. provided of course that we also win the league.
Some good news from over the weekend in that AEK Athens defeated Olympiacos 1-0 away, in the first game of the Greek split. That win takes AEK Athens 5 points clear at the top, with 5 games to go.
Next up for Olympiacos is an away trip to Cyriel Dessers' Panathinaikos. Here's hoping he can help take more points off them.
A reminder that it we were to win the league, we require:
(i) Olympiacos to not with the Greek Super League; and
(ii) Shakhtar Donetsk
(a) to be eliminated from the Conference League ASAP (as they can still mathematically overtake us in the coefficient league table); or
(b) to not win the Ukrainian Premier League (which unfortunately they are still favourites to do).
Attention and all eyes now turn to their Quarter Final tie against AZ Alkmaar this Thursday, with the winner progressing to play either Crystal Palace or Fiorentina (which in my opinion, is the 'tougher' half of the draw). Hopefully AZ can do us a favour and eliminate them.
An interesting situation to watch before we make the trip to Falkirk on Sunday for the next 'cup final' out of six remaining.

Thanks for the explanation.
07 Apr 2026 17:17:23
Great info Legal Bear. 👍
07 Apr 2026 19:45:14
Legal Bear, I thought it was only up to us or Olympacos. I've read twice now of Shaktar. Does that come into force this season or next? No media outlets I've read state about Shaktar.
08 Apr 2026 09:59:26
Davie - Shakhtar are still mathematically in the mix. For next season's UCL, an entry 'slot' is reserved for the previous season's UCL champions, to defend their title. If that champion qualifies automatically via their domestic league (highly probable, as Liverpool are the only team remaining in the competition that are not currently in an automatic qualification spot in their domestic league), the 'slot' is passed on to the highest coefficient ranked club from a champion of a league with no direct entry to the UCL (a possible backdoor entry for the champions of Greece, Serbia, Scotland, Norway, Denmark, Croatia etc).
As it stands, the highest ranking club ahead of Rangers that fits those criteria is Olympiacos. They won their final three UCL league stage games (coupled with our disastrous European campaign where we added few coefficient points to our tally), which meant the Greeks overtook us.
It is therefore crucial that they do not win the Greek Super League to benefit from the backdoor entry.
Whilst, for now, Shakhtar are behind Rangers in the rankings in third, they can still add to their coefficient points obtained this season, as they remain in the Conference League. Wins, draws and round progression add to their tally. Whilst it would take some run for them to catch us this season, it is still a mathematical reality considering they have fared well in Europe this season.
We therefore want them to be eliminated asap, to avoid that happening, and leave it between us and Olympiacos. Celtic and Hearts are nowhere near us in the coefficient rankings, which is why, if they were to win the league (and as happened to Celtic last season when they had to travel to Kazakhstan), they would not benefit from possible direct entry to the UCL, only us.
