So they have never played at that level then?

It would be a big story, so much so you've started a new thread about the prospect so we can all talk about it, so can't blame the media for also talking about it. Us going down would be bigger than when Hearts & Hibs went down.

Lincoln City promoted to play in the second tier of English football for the first time in my lifetime

I chose to ignore a club with no real history. I don't feel they count towards any Scottish footballing history, so only us and Celtic never suffered relegation from the top flight.

Nae sure if any of you have watched any of the Chris Broad YouTube stuff called rather cleverly Abroad In Japan ? Whilst I haven't so far that is probably down to never having heard of him but was given a copy of his book, also called Abroad In Japan, which turned out to be an excellent read. Highly recommended folks

Sevco have never been relegated. They've come through the leagues unscathed since forming in 2012. #cinderellastory

The dead huns weren’t relegated either. THEY FUCKING WELL DIED.

Of course they are. Every team and media outlet in Scotland would take great pleasure in seeing us go down. Only us and Celtic have never been relegated from the top flight. I chose to ignore the newco, pretend club in this argument.

Wouldn't bank on us having home games v St Mirren & Kilmarnock btw. Due to the absurdity of the split, one of Aberdeen, St Mirren or Dundee will have to play a third away game at Rugby Park. There is also a chance we may have to play at Tannadice a third time. Is being a top six team last season gives us a slight advantage in these decisions, but not confirmed until it's confirmed.

Aye, but the difference between us and them is that their fans are a bunch of wallopers.

Does BBC Sport have to run daily articles about the possibility of us being relegated? It's almost as if they're rubbing their hands together with glee at the prospect.

The parallel that most concerns me is the Jooooot when they got relegated the year after a cup win, overseen by a foreign manager who got binned in favour of a journeyman the following season. I think we've all got the relegation fear, but its based on our form rather than position. Realistically it'll be via a play-off should it happen. Fucking hell, this is shite.

Genuinely believe, and have done for quite a while now even when the points difference was double what it currently is, that we are destined for 11th spot. I hope I'm wrong but there is nothing in our squad to suggest we can get any victories from our remaining games when hunger, drive, fight, steel etc. are what is required. For me it comes down to the play off. We're home for the 2nd leg so we have to believe that of all the sell outs, and it's sure to be, that this is the one time the players actually respond positively to a full house.

A big part of me thinks we're fucked, but my head takes over and reminds me we will definitely find a way to scrape it.......if only through Killie being shitter for 6 games, the fan backing getting us valuable points at home against those below us (assuming the SFA don't decide to give us 5 away games and make up some very valid excuse why)

It'd take some run of from on their part, but Livi could still catch us.

I honestly don't think we have any advantage, including likely playing four of our remaining six games at home, as we enter the closing stages of the season. I think we will rely on others to save us, as I don't think we are capable of saving ourselves. We are speaking about winning 2 games in the next six, when we have only had 1 league win since December. Everytime we think we can't get any worse, it does. It's not like we are unlucky either, in that we are losing games, when we are playing well. We are just shyte. Of course, I do hope our players find something from somewhere and claw us out of this mess of their doing.

Don't ask me why, but I don't think we will finish 11th and face a play off.

We can beat Livi and Kilmarnock - but not if we play the way we have been. Clearly we can't fight and the few that can are small, older or injured. A while without rain would help. Armstrong, Cameron and Keskinen can take players on and create but if the going is soft? Typically, it's due to rain on Friday I notice.

I read somewhere that 38 points is usually the threshold to avoid the relegation play off. So 2 wins and 2 draws in last 6 games is needed. Taking 3 points off Livingston and Kilmarnock is crucial.

It’s strange that recently there never seems to be a point where both Scotland and Aberdeen are doing well, only one or the other. I think Hearts are going to bottle the league, their last two matches they have lost to Kilmarnock and drawn against Livi. They are one loss away from dropping off the top for the first time this season, and if they do their confidence will go. Unfortunately relegation is looking likely for us at the moment. Both teams below us are in better form, and should we end up in a playoff it will be a battle. With fight sorely lacking in the team there isn’t much suggestion of being able to overcome this. Of course things can change quickly an unlikely win on Saturday might take us above Dundee, and confidence obviously plays a massive part. Hopefully Robinson has learned something about the squad (as he has suggested) from the past few games which helps us.

Not sure anyone has said we’ll be ok because of the 4 home games left - I certainly didn’t. It’s more that its clearly better than 4 away games would be, so gives us a glimmer of hope. We need something to cling to. Agree it’ll come down to someone being worse than us, likely hopefully Killie, but the fixtures will play a part in that. We’re due to play them up here, & St Mirren. That’s way preferable to us having to go down there, not even close…
