How To Get Into The Top Six

Last updated : 02 April 2006 By Stand Free Ed
Aberdeen's win at Inverness yesterday has put the Dons in pole position for the final SPL Top 6 berth.

However, the Dons could draw and even lose against Hibs next week and still beat Caley Thistle and Motherwell to sixth.

There are a baffling number of permutations, but thankfully Aberdeen-Mad is here to help you along the way.

If Aberdeen beat Hibs, their Top 6 place is assured regardless of results elsewhere. Woohoo!

Motherwell win - Motherwell finish 6th

Motherwell draw or lose and Caley Thistle win - Caley finish 6th

Motherwell draw or lose and Caley Thistle draw or lose - Aberdeen finish 6th



Aberdeen lose vs Hibs


Motherwell win - Motherwell finish 6th

Motherwell draw or lose, Caley Win - Caley finish 6th

Simple as that.
