What are your expectations of a CEO?

Ashcroft confirmed at Raith - with another wee dig at us on their SM.

It wasn't just about the style of play last season. When he got the job McPake said he just wanted us to win games. He certainly did that. We had to get out that league and we did. At the same time we looked like we were really building something that the supporters, especially the young fans, were buying into. There was a real spirit about the club. That's all evaporated it would seem.

His point was clearly that fortunes can change in as little as 6/8 weeks. Us and Morton are testament to that. I really don't think he's trying to say in another 6 weeks we'll definitely be back up to 4th.

I'm really scunnered with The Pars just now. Feel like the owners have lost any interest in making us competitive in the Championship while Rovers go from strength to strength. Falkirk romping League 1 as well while we settle for second best. Just not good enough

(Mildly) interesting that Thistles' only 2 league wins this year have been a 3-2 over QP and a 4-0 scudding of Arbroath. Recent draws with Inverness and Airdrie might give us a wee bit hope that Friday might not be a total lost cause. Brian Graham v our central "defence" still gives me the absolute fear tho. I'm expecting a 2 or 3 goal defeat but hoping we can repeat the effort up at Tannadice a few weeks ago.

All fair points but not having anyone getting all misty eyed about Hughes. That team had more than enough ability to stay up.

Let's not reminisce about Hughes, eh? The man was an utter fraud

I appreciate the effort they're putting in but that was a really terrible game to watch. So many bad passes I lost count. We may have played better but Arbroath were awful. We're not getting clear of this battle at the bottom now. It's going to be like this until the end of the season. Grim

2-0 Pars. The revival starts here.

When you have a midfield that includes both Chalmers and Allan you are asking for trouble. I made a point of watching Allan for 5 minutes yesterday and I hate saying it but he contributed next to nothing. At one point he came short to take a ball from Benjamin. No-one near him but just passed straight back to him. Neither of them joins the "press" our strikers attempt so 2 or 3 simple passes and Queens were in our half. Pathetic.

Everyone's disappointed with how the season is unfolding. Have to say i agree tho. It just doesn't seem to bother me as it used to. A ****e result used to ruin my weekend. I couldn't even face MOTD on a Saturday night. Now it's put to bed almost straight away. Maybe cos I'm 52 and almost grown up......! Roll on Saturday.

Some attitude 😒

Give the boy Holmes a run. Let's catch them by surprise. He looked quite handy

We could never have afforded Danny Wilson. It wasn't even an option. There's only 1 reason he's ended up at QP.

Soon to be 6. Next game is United at home.

Xavier Benjamin, 20 year old centre half signed on loan from Cardiff

I know the management rate him highly so it would appear so.

Looks like Rudden is bound for Raith if the Courier is to be believed

Which is absolutely the correct thing to do as it stands

So, in summary, he's a bit pish but better than what we have?

18 days

It was a poor attempt at humour referring to a post on .nut No need for the name calling to be fair, thought this forum was better than that. It was a genuine question from someone most definitely not "in the know"

Not wishing to "pile on" but why has the risk of this game being off tipped you over the edge?

This is the only reference to our manager showing interest in Joe. Hardly Reuters.
