    Last league game before the split and the cup semi so who would you start?

    Thoughts on how the game will go etc are now open for debate.

    Very tough match, they are flying just now.

    Also a tough call on who should play but I think Brown should be rested and Commons in for GMS.

    Tough match indeed.

    Brown should be dropped for Rogic if he is fit, then move Johansen back to the 2 with Rogic in behind Griffiths - who needs to up his game big time.

    No doubt about it a tough match given the form they are in at the moment. Hopefully Rogic is fit to slot in the attacking midfirld slot behind Griffiths. Equally important any word on how Sviatchenko looks? We have been so much better at the back since he settled into the starting lineup losing him for any length of time would be a big blow.

    Ffs when did this happen? Fine take big Derk out and replace him with Adam Virgo!


    Nah in all seriousness would go with something like

    Gk- Gordon
    Rb- Lustig
    Cb- Boyata
    Cb- Mulgrew
    Lb- KT
    Cdm- Bitton
    Cdm- Johansen
    Lam- GMS/Mcgregor
    Cam- Rogic
    Ram- Roberts
    St- Griff

    Would love to slot Allan in there and drop Johansen as well but its not gonna happen however would like to see him and Christie get some * game time! Hopfully Rogic returns and gives us that spark we need, massive game for us we simply cannot lose this match going into the split!

    Really, really don't fancy this one.

    Going to go for a tough slog and a 1-1 draw.

    Luckily I think the sheep will lose at Tynecastle on Friday night.

    5 wins from 5 including the sheep.

    Very peculiar how little has been made of their form.

    Becomes more important after yesterday. I'd love to see a convincing scoreline but would take any sort of win now.

    Was looking forward to going to this as well now I have a * wedding to go to I have two spare tickets if anybody is interested?

    Anyway I'd go with

    Gordon

    Janko
    Boyata
    Mulgrew
    Tierney

    Johansen
    Bitton

    Roberts
    Rogic
    Mackay Steven

    Griffiths



    Assuming Sviatchenko and Lustig aren't fit perhaps play Commons or McGregor but I think the team isn't that hard to predict.
