Catching up after a few days in the doldrums, interesting thread. Brings to mind a couple of comments made in the Killie/Arbroath commentary - the last losses for both teams were at the hands of ICT. Just shows what a huge opportunity we've squandered this season with such a mixed bag of results - and begs the question, who is ultimately at fault? Was it down to a small core of players not pulling their weight or simply not up to the task, or was it the management team failing to get the tactics or motivation right to get the best out of everyone? I can appreciate the arguments on both sides. I'm not able to offer an opinion as I have seen precious little of the games this season, just had to rely on the updates and reports from you guys. It's an enigma right enough, flashes of brilliance which showed the ability and quality was there, but equally spells of utter dross that would have had us struggling against Clach! Can only hope that the problems that were obviously there in the 3rd quarter of the season are now behind us and we can hit the play-offs running on a high. Great that we can have a forum to debate these moot points in a friendly demonstration of mutual respect for each others opinions

Yep, not exactly vital but securing third place with a win tonight will be hugely beneficial for our play-off chances. QotS will be/should be fired up as it is vital for them so we need to be sharp. Reckon an early goal would pretty much knock the stuffing out of them. They folded against Arbroath and I'm not so sure they have the bottle anymore to pick themselves up from that.

Sad news and an excellent tribute Scotty. Haven't seen the big man in years but whenever I met him he always made me feel instantly back home and welcome. Big Stew you will be sadly missed by everyone, rest in peace big fella.

Thought the mannie's first post summed it up nicely!

We've done it before, and if the performances and spirit maintain the level set yesterday, we can do it again.

My personal challenge is to see if I can make it to the end of the season without going bankrupt - a truly Gringo-esque type run this year!

How we are still managing to cling on to a play-off spot is almost as puzzling as how our performances have managed to deteriorate so drastically. Just as well Raith are also in a race with us to dive out of the play-offs or the slim chance we still have would already be gone.

Sounds like a few rockets directed up some rear ends is needed - all in all some very depressing reading and I really don't think BD has the capability to light the necessary touch paper.
