Sakes. Lighten up man. 

I’m fine, was just stating the fact that we are painfully slow and usually have to play catch up when we come to building a squad

Slow and steady wins the race 

Didn’t do us much favours last year that approach 

It’s the usual these days, slow in everything we do 

Good to see the potential of the finance option. That could help massively with sales 

Season tickets go on sale tomorrow. Slight rise but not the worst 

Formation I meant, not personnel 

Would rather we got rid of the back 3 altogether

Money as always will decide what happens. All players under contract will be kept unless someone wants to buy them. We can't afford to get rid of players mid-contract so we will again try to add to what we have through loans. Unfortunately, we are stuck with players such as McCann and Wighton who have already shown they cannot cut it in the championship. Todd and Sutherland will get their chance this season.

Unfortunately the club have shot themselves in the foot with having guys signed up for next year who are t good enough. If we can’t move them on it’ll be another season of tinkering around the bottom

Am I the only one who really enjoyed that game tonight?!

Was a good game to watch. But our issues were there to see and really got to hope the board and manager can give us a huge transfer window in the summer 

Speedy recovery to mehmet. On terms of the game, been story of our season. Give away soft as **** goals. Big changes needed in the summer

"Poor"?

I wouldn't say it was poor. A wee bit disappointing maybe but still a decent chance of 5th.

Yeah poor end. Shat it in nearly every big game this season 

3^rd May

Ayr Utd v Dunfermline (14/2260) 1-2

Dundee Utd v Partick Thistle 3-1

Inverness CT v Morton  2-1

Queens Park v Airdrie 2-2

Raith Rovers v Arbroath3-0

Certainly be interesting since first once since huge losses announced and a poor end to the season

I've never been that impressed with him, but he's shown something recently, with the goal at Arbroath and the cross for Bene's goal yesterday. I'd hang onto him a bit longer and see how he does this year.

I also wouldn't be sad to see Jak stay, although we still need a goalscorer. He's got a lot of creativity in him I think.

Unfortunately we’ve got enough signed up who aren’t good enough. If we can’t move them on we’ll just be in same position fighting relegation next season I fear 

^ Agree. To push on to the next level we need to try get better and not sure Allan has been that great tbh, just a steady player nothing more

Not disagreeing with you, but I have a sneaky feeling that McPake is probably only doing his masters’ bidding. For me the question is, how long will McPake be prepared to hang around if better offers come his way.

Can’t see anyone coming in for him with his playing style. Absolutely brutal and doesn’t even get much success from it

We''l probably play that 3 at the back as our cautious manager will play for a point. The width coming from Edwards and KRH from deep.

Much better playing 4-2-3-1 with width coming from KRH and Jakubiak much higher up the pitch. Results have been better when we have played the back four, so it's a head scratcher why McPake keeps going back to that dull back three. We don't score as many goals and it's boring to watch.

Next season we need to have a go. This over cautious football is absolutely garbage and doesn’t even help us as we don’t win much when playing this way

Fri 26^th April

Airdrie v Dundee Utd 1-3

Sat 27^th April

Arbroath v Queens Park 1-2

Dunfermline Ath v Inverness CT (14/4690) 0-0

Morton v Raith Rovers 1-2

Partick Th v Ayr Utd 3-1

I’d be giving Sutherland minutes ahead of Holmes. Holmes has done nothing and I’d rather we develop or own player.

The minutes Holmes is getting leads me to believe we want to sign him in the summer. Why else?

Hopefully not we’ve already got enough strikers that can’t score goals regularly 

I’d give Sutherland more game time. Holmes hasn’t done anything and we’ve persisted with McCann for a few seasons now and not much return. So give the lad some games before end of the season 

And when was the last time we were contenders in this league? Plodding away in this division really isn’t good enough for us

Lets just remember, year 1 was our best achievement, a position we had achieved 3 years earlier.  We are now entering year 5.  Time to stop the Jam tomorrow mindset/message. 

Exactly this. ‘10 year plan’ what a load of ****! We’ve had investment yet the product on the pitch has went back the way ever since. Rovers get investment and turn into title contenders 

Ultimately Mcpake is responsible for poor transfer windows. Yes they aim high for targets but think they need a dose of reality too. Jakuibak was released from Dundee in may yet we didn’t sign him until 10th September or something like that. Recruitment needs to be spot on in summer or we’re in trouble 

Imagine how good he could be if he could cross a ball too? Well deserved and he’ll get his move in the summer

We have the set up off the pitch

We have a a fanbase other clubs would kill for.

We're being short changed on the park.

Been like that for a few years now.

Still ****ed off this morning.

Agree with this. The product on the park is poor and we get told that is now a successful season. Absolute bollocks. Maybe if we’d had a better squad at the season instead of another poor transfer window we’d have been in a better position. Don’t hold much hope going into the summer window that we will get it right
