Meanwhile in an alternate universe, our f*cking deluded manager still thinks top six is mathematically possible 🤣
Reality is,if we dont empty this clown then your scenario becomes more and more likely.

Over the last 15 games we have went from one of the higher scoring teams in the league to the 2nd lowest - St Mirren lowest.
Yet somehow in those games we have picked up more points than Aberdeen, St Mirren, Killie and Livvy.
In fact the same 4 teams have picked up less points than us in last 5 games.
Unlikely but we could be in trouble if these teams suddenly start winning.
Here's a realistic possibility for those that think we are safe.
All our remaining pre split games are huge inc cup game, for me the 2 priority ones are St Mirren and Livvy.
St Mirren game on Tues is huge, if they win we are 3 pts above 10th and we play Dundee - who would go above us with a win- and old firm in our next 3 games before last pre split game v Livvy.
By then Killie could have beat Livvy thus 6pts behind us and their last pre split home game is against Dundee who may literally have nothing to play for.
If we continue to lose games inc against St Mirren and Livvy, I think we could well be 11th, especially with our post split record under Jim, however we could also reach cup final.
Finishing 11th and getting to final may be very unlikley but as the title says, brace yourselves for an uncomfortable ride.
Edited to add that Aberdeen should really be more worried than us. On currenr form I can easily see a last day scenario of Utd v Aberdeen final game decider to avoid play off spot.

No one, absolutely no one is calling for Goodwin to be removed purely because of the result at Fir Park and I think you know that fine well. The swell of "Goodwin out" calls are due to our poor, or indifferent, or downright shocking form since the end of September. Loads of people have mentioned the six wins all season, three wins at home, as being way below acceptable. So you know that it's not about the result against Motherwell in isolation - it's just the latest in a long line of abject negative performances from a team who were actually playing some very positive football in the early part of the season. This is anything but short term or panic - this is the result of months of dire performances and underachieving from a squad that we know are capable of much better.
Woosh, rose tinted tangerine glasses. whenever you call another side on you will give away penalties and create the situation where it can happen. If we were in their box then it would possibly be us getting the pen. simple. JG is finished GTF the longer he persists the more damage he will do and the more bitter the departure.
Any credits Jim had for last 2 years are gone, this season has been terrible.
Its a results business and matchdays are meant to be an exciting experince.
Forget about steadying the finance boat, this season, most times the team Jim has sent out have been dire.
For the last feq months he always seems to put us in a position to be unlucky.
He sets us up poorly.
He puts players in wrong positions/formations.
He reacts too late.
His team sits on leads.
His team concedes late goals.
His approach allows our opponents to gain confidence, push forward and put themselves in a position to be lucky, late goals, penalty etc.
Unlike Jim, most other managers demand their players keep going knowing we are a soft disorganised team with little heart or desire.
He blames refs, the pitch, bad luck, anyone and anything that deflects.
Shameful.
Crowds will dwindle if this keeps going.
