I really hope it is untrue but comments from those who were at it or watched the stream of yesterday’s game are worrying if some players may not be giving 100%. Being pedantic, if there may have been a case to answer, suspension during any investigation would have to be with pay (innocent until proven guilty) and it is very possible that the club followed anything through that needed followed through before the next match. Personally, I think it’s just a case of Ridgers’ being felt to have had a dip in form but the way it was carried out in the Morton game, along with Dodds’ comments after the match, was very poor, and insulting to a player who has performed consistently well for us, gaining us many more points than he has cost us.

I had a laugh when I heard the Rangers manager speaking before their game on Saturday saying the players were needing a rest! No complaints about the money coming in from the europe games and the massive squad they have compared to the other teams. Also, the team over the bridge are looking forward to having a rest and getting the injured players back for some 'warm weather training' before the games commence in December. This mild spell must be going to continue for a few weeks

I actually think everyone would welcome a break at the moment? Shame the Championship carries on and probably the misery with it!

Too much nepotism at play Said last year reaching the play offs after the mid season collapse just papered over the cracks and would give him another shot this season. Injury excuses will keep coming and if its the same outcome this season nothing will change. This is like last year a poor championship, low quality teams throughout which makes competitive and entertaining but we are not capitalising. Last year killie lost a quarter of the games yet still won the league and now look to be getting found out in the Premiership.....I expect the same again.

They say you get what you pay for, and let's be honest, Dodds was the cheap option. Lived locally, knows the hierarchy and helped out McCann last season. It's as plain as the nose on your face that Dodds is no tactician. Some of his formations, lineups and substitutions are baffling to most supporters, and not having a plan B is criminal, but then again, most supporters I talk to say he doesn't have a plan A. If we can get through this season still being in this league, it will be a bonus. 2 points out of the last 15 is relegation form. A good coach would know how to set a team up not to get beat when times are rough and play to our strengths, but maybe there are things going on behind the scenes that we don't know about. The Ridgers situation could be the tip of the iceberg. Dodds handled that abysmally, surely the club can't be happy with him throwing Ridgers under the bus on live TV? Has he, or is he losing the dressing room, because some of the performances have been woeful. If a lot of supporters hadn't have bought season tickets, I think you'd see a even more depressing attendance at games. I can't see anything changing soon, so expect this to the bitter end of the season, and then? Who knows.

Enough is enough! We were absolutely garbage yet again and this situation simply cannot be allowed to continue. I get the fact that we have a depleted squad but the manner of the performances are completely uncceptable and we are categorically never getting out of this league with Dodds in charge. I would love our esteemed CEO and Manager to illuminate us as to why we chose not to bring in loanees at the end of September when we were already facing a lengthy injury list. The fact that we're also naming 16 and 17 year olds on the bench when we have a number of slightly more experienced players out on loan is a similar mystery to me. Time to go!

Has Dodds lost the dressing room, with some players not giving 100% as a result?

Absolute garbage! Total lack of cohesion. Unable to string passes together. Unable to keep possession. Unable to score more than one goal per match, and usually less. No tactics. No fight. And frankly, I don't buy this "huge injury list" thing - that's been the excuse for the last 3 seasons now. Anybody playing for ICT must have achieved a certain standard before getting in the door. The players on the pitch all have the required individual skills - they just don't seem to be working in the same direction. I've been reluctant to criticise so far, but tonight's shambles just tipped me over the edge. We never looked like winning, even when we were one-up. When I pay to see a game I expect some kind of entertainment for my money. This season I just feel I'm being ripped off!

Wish I’d played a joker: the extra points would have cheered me up after another inept performance by the team!

If there was a physical altercation by Ridgers, and its debatable whether there was, then he shouldn't even be on the bench. Suspended without pay pending investigation.

Whatever did happen in the dressing room should have stayed in the dressing room. Dodds was very unprofessional in his interview, he created the narrative and made all the supporters who heard it think, what went on in there? In my opinion, I think Ridgers will be at ICT longer than Dodds will.

I hope it’s not true but only time will tell. What goes on in the dressing room should stay within. The problem is things grow arms and legs when something gets out.
