We need to take 3 wins from our last 3 games and not worry about other results.
If we win all 3 we will be champions. If we don't win all 3 then we won't and tbh we won't deserve it if we dont.

There is a chance we win all three games and are not champions because of goal difference.

It's not that simple, we need to win all 3 games and better Hearts goal difference, we need them to drop a point in their 2 games before they play us, that way wee will win it outright if we do win all our games, hopefully the spirit of Love Street 40 years ago will carry us to the title, hopefully it's an omen, I've still got a feeling that we're going to do it ?.

Not if hearts win two they'd probably win on goal difference as i can't see us closing 5 goal gapand matching them for goals in next two games. we still need a slip up from hearts.

If hearts and us lose our next two games and draw the last match and they win all three of their games, there has to be no room for complacency.

If we win all 3, we might lose the title on goal difference.
We need one of two teams to take something from Hearts and we need to beat them and I cannot see Falkirk or even Morherwell taking something from them. They have nothing other than pride to play for.
If we were the team of 2 seasons ago, I would have more confidence that we could beat them and score the goals we need but this season we are never scoring that amount of goals.
We just don't create or take that level of chances.
I hope I am proved wrong.
Even 2nd we get CL football but probably 30 qualifying rounds.
No reason not to invest properly in the team, as we need to be ready to start qualifying games early whether we win the league or are runners up.
Either way there is a chance of qualifying and getting big money, so our board need to be ready for the starting pistol when the summer window opens. NO CHANCE.
The only upside, if there is one, to being 2nd would be that sevco would not have CL and access to big money.
Will they try and spend big in summer again or try and offload some galacticos to balance the books.
All of the above, even though it appears I would be happy being 2nd (and I can assure you I would not be) , does not take away from how much our boards lack of investment and absolutely terrible recruitment has set us back years.
We need to reset and start building again, starting with a new Manager, recruitment policy and football strategy.

@drb remember that we don't need to score 5 to overcome the present goal difference. Each goal we win by against hearts counts as 2 as it adds 1 to us and subtracts 1 from them.
