I think it's important to realise our improvement in recent games. We look alot more solid. Little has been made of the signings of mccart and laing. Both have become regulars immediately and have helped stem the flow of losses. So hats off to Richie for that. Today we paid the price for not scoring when we were on top. 3 points against Killie is a must. I have no rest of county for the next game, although they probably are saying the same

I take the view that those who actually paid hard earned cash to watch are entitled to vent there entirely justified frustration. Remember these frustrations are borne not merely out of one derby match were a winning position was lost but out watching too many all too familiar performances all league season.

I have backed and defended Richie from the outset but there is no doubt that the point we got today was despite him rather than because of him. The starting XI and the formation were entirely wrong for the occasion and the point we got was due to the determination and spirit of the players rather than management or tactical nouns which were sadly lacking. This formation has been tried before and has failed before. What on earth made the manager think that the result would be any different this time. There is a reason we only have four victories this season. County are one of the very few teams in the division on a poorer run of form and with less confidence than ourselves and had we adopted a more expansive and adaptable style of play with just a bit of width they were there for the taking. Even with the tactics we deployed we got ourselves into a winning position yet the manager failed to recognise that there was a need to adapt and refresh to maintain that. What on earth was the point of a substitution in the 90th after our advantage was ceded. Today wasn't a disaster largely because other results went our way and we still have a chance of survival but not if the manager continues to be so inflexible and unimaginative. We are unlikely to take anything from Pittodrie so it's vital that we win our next game against Killie. We have the players and the spirit to do it. The big question is whether these resources will at last be deployed with a bit more guile and tactical nous.

sounds like the establishment talking.

So did I, although I respect the views of others. We have tightened up at the back, which was needed. The downside is that there can be too much of a gap between midfield and attack. When we moved it fast today, we were pretty good. My only complaint was not changing it when one up. I'd have played King or Cole in place of Anier at that time, leaving Billy up front on his own but with a midfielder backing him up. We are off the bottom, still in touch, only one defeat in 6, so have cause to believe we can stay up. And I'm not a "happy clapper"!

Now now boys and girls we have to stop all this bickering and the bottom line is quite simply this. Our performances can be good bad or indifferent but the fact of the matter is draws at home are no use to us anymore

I hope I'm not wrong, but I'm more positive than many of the other posters. Even the BBC pundits felt we deserved to win f on what I heard.

At the end of the day, a disappointing finish, but looking on the bright side, we have tightened up at the back, have stopped the sequence of defeat after defeat, we are showing more desire and grit, we are on a run of picking up results, have got ourselves off the bottom, are within one win of tenth, have made inroads on the goal difference of those around us ( by not conceding as many as others ). We were in a position every one didnt want to be, and the hardest bit is getting to the stage where you can see the light. I think we have dragged ourselves up to the point where we can see just one more result and we are out of the play off place too. It must give the players a boost to finally see us climbing of bottom, Remember Well and County are on a crap run now, while we are slowely catching. No old firm games from now, just games we can win. Keep the faith, 9 games and 27 points to go for.

Today was the first time that I have lost faith in the team and the manager. The starting line up was horrendous. Every punter in the stadium could see we needed to make changes after we scored but not the manager. And how Vigurs continues tunes to get selected is beyond me. I believe we have the players and ability to stay up but I fear Foran's inadequate management will be what tages us down. I'm off to get pushed now.

Lets be honest that was a brutal watch. Been quite supportive of Foran ,but cannot see how he can turn this round . First quarter of an hour in the second half we were good the rest of the game we struggled . Cannot believe that Foran could not see that we needed to make a change but for reasons only he knows he waited until the 90 minute mark .....bizarre Playing a back 5 really restricts our attacking options and not a tactic that wins matches and we really need to win .....1 win in 18 is just not good enough .

With games running out, this is the sort of match we need to be winning, home game against a bottom 6 side who are on a terrible run of form. We were close to a much needed win, but at the end of the day that was just another bad result.

I actually thought we were the better team for the majority of the match! We were unlucky not to push this over the line. Ive watched a lot lot worse this season

Unlucky with 1st half bar but rode our luck in the 1st 45. Fairly resolute with 5 in defence but no width without wingers. Vigurs should be commended for the effort that hit the bar but he should have been substituted much earlier. Brilliant start to 2nd half with goal that should / could have easily been added to. My goodness, how often does a team rue missed chances to extend a lead? Late equaliser almost made it feel like defeat. Over the whole game, a draw was probably fair ... but gutting because so close to a win that would have pushed us so much closer to Well/County.

Not at the game but have been at the Hamilton and Partick matches in recent weeks. Agree that we lack any ideas / tactics and seem to punt the long ball incessantly just hoping for a lucky break. In the past, you always felt ICT could score : sadly this appears no longer the case. Increasingly looks like 11th is the best we can hope for : RF is clearly not the man for the job, and if we survive cannot see things will be any better next season.

Just in from game and may post again later. Gutted we didn't win, as I felt we could hold on. Pity we didn't get a second when we had them on the rack and hit the woodwork. The way we started the second half was great. Still, only one defeat in six in the league, but turning draws into wins is what we need. Felt the County goal was a soft one to lose, but need to see both goals on tv. On this whole, I felt the defence did ok, allowing the full backs to push on more. Tansey was the pick of the midfield, closely followed by Draper. Polworth and Vigurs did OK on the whole, with a couple of decent Vigurs efforts with his wrong foot before he got crocked. Mckay did well when the ball went near him, and Anier was hit and miss, needing a better first touch, but when he got it right he did ok. Would have liked to have seen Cole or King come on when we were one up to add pace and support. Disappointed, but still believe we can stay up. Roll on Kilmarnock!

Compliments from the a cold and rainy day in the Wild West of Canada. Lovely day for a match and wonderful video. This is great stuff from good cameras and fair and very adequate commentary. At some time in the future an addition of clock timing discreetly showing on the screen if at all possible would be an asset that would complete the presentation. IMHO. Just a wee suggestion. Thank you. Have a great day.

We shouldn't have to be relying on others around us losing....we should be picking up a hell of a lot more pts than we are. The lack of pts coming in is reason to be concerned. We are running out of games

Curtis Allen scores a hat trick for Glentoran in a 4-2 win away at Ballymena utd

Guaranteed I had a premonition we were going to win 3-0

Bring back Barry and a wee trademark lob from Stewart........................ Brilliant

looking for it now ... but in the meantime

Not just me then

Richie more or less said that at his Thursday press conference. He admitted to missing the positive effect on players' aggression levels of Derek's pre-derby comments and highlighted what these did to his own. I did ask him if he was thinking about placing an effigy of Derek in the home dressing room......

Scotty, since there is likely to be an extradition treaty between the UK and Canada, 15 years or so on from when banter like this was considered "good crack", you can probably now expect a knock on the door from the Canadian PC Police and a summons to appear at Dingwall Sheriff Court on charges of offending Travelling People.

Sorry, I've seem to have walked in on the chat from a different game to the one I was at today.

Nowhere did I suggest that people should not be entitled to express their view. I was just exercising my right to disagree with that view.....so you can wind your neck back in and calm down.
