Just as well that the highlights were brief as they were painful enough to watch. Having been unable to attend the first three home games and read about how bad things have been to date, I have absolutely no dilemma about attending my grand-daughter's first birthday part on the 30th and missing the next home game as well. At this rate I might never use my season ticket. What a waste of £267!

Here we go again - lots of possession, little to show for it and then hit by sucker punch goals. Give me strength! Just as well I'm 2600 miles away. ?

Absolute nightmare - just as well it was short highlights. Thank goodness Championship games are not on Sportscene any more. What a slagging our team would get from the pundits.

Seems like Robbo is becoming like Foran was last season - difficult to comprehend and it's his way or no way. Look where that got us and look where we seem to be heading. I just don't have faith in the current set up from players through to the Board to stop the downward spiral. I fear we'll be back in the Highland League and playing at The Bught within the next 3 years at this rate.

From what I've been hearing there is much unrest in the dressing room.  More players have also been ostracised (not just OFW, Raven and Esson) and the injuries to some of the new signings have not helped. This is not at all appealing to the fringe supporters to turn up. A combination of this and other events won't see me at my first league game until 22 October, if at all, and I'm feeling conned by the Board into buying my season ticket before the end of June.

Biggest game of the season so far. How we do will defend on what defensive lineup we put out:

Raven-Warren-Mckay-Tremarco 

or

Anything with Elsdon, Donaldson or Chalmers.

The former four preferably, but definitely not any more than one of the last three.

So what was our team and bench today? Can't seem to find it on any online media that I'm subscribe to.

And some folk on this site were slating me last year for complaining about the behaviour of these OTT youngsters. As I said back then this should have been nipped in the bud, but now with SPFL "Unacceptable Conduct" correspondence I rest my case.  

What the Fox was that? ?

I have been told that the main issue with DR is that if he plays 10 games he has to be offered a new contract. Hence why Robbo is using him sparingly. Similar situation with Roberto Carlos Tremarco I understand.

I agree to an extent but the previous board had a lot to answer for in terms of things sliding in the year before.

Too short notice for me as I have another commitment, but I'd say this meeting has also come too late. We should have had something like this in January when there might have been a chance of helping to save us from relegation.

Forget letters to the Chairman and social media - this forum included - I think it's time for a good old fashioned open letter in our local rag. If the club doesn't respond to that then I think many of the loyal fans will walk away.

Sounds like a desperate attempt to try and fill the hospitality suite because of lack of interest in take up of the usual places.  After today's result I can't see many takers for this offer either. 

How depressing, despite only 2 league games in. 

I'm coming round even more to the view that the whole set up is a conspiracy by the Board to take us back into the lower leagues because there isn't any money to sustain us at a higher level?  It all seems to have started by telling Hughes there was no significant funds to kick on from our Cup win and 3rd spot in the Premier League. The way must be paved for Savage and/or McGillivray to return to the fold or we face oblivion.   

Free-fall already and only the second league game. FFS!!

Yet more confusing messages coming from the club over this saga. I think it's time for fans to get proper honest answers, particularly if the situation continues to affect results on the park. 

Another kick in the gonads to the fans and still no explanations from the Board about last season's fiasco. I hear that Roberto Carlos Tremarco is next on County's list. How I am regretting buying a season ticket.

Have we got any colts/development players left? Most of them seem to have been loaned to HL teams in any case and our under 17s would get pumped every week in the HL, so what's the point?

Fon Williams

Raven McKay Elsdon Calder

Seedorf Draper Vigurs Cooper

Oakley Zschussen

Subs Esson, Chalmers, Polworth, Baird + 3 youngsters.

Feck all of that. I'd put most of it in an off-shore account in the Caman Islands and move there myself.

Just a porno boob then? And here's me thinking it was an actual statement from the Board about what went wrong last season. I'm obviously being too optimistic about getting an explanation but perhaps someday we will be told why they let things get so bad.

Clach game off due to growing injury list - 10 first team squad and counting. Obviously their water resistance training in the Aquadome competition pool on Sunday morning hasn't seen that list get shorter.

No.9 Davidson. Couple of half chances but didn't show anything particularly special. Well shackled by the Forres centre halves which isn't a great sign. Would need to see more and hope the injury he sustained isnt too serious, looked a real sore one.

I heard today that he's broken his metatarsal and likely to be out for about 6 weeks. Who said it wasn't a brutal game? Was it not Mulraney who was crocked in the Forres game last July?

All getting a bit tight to bring in new players before the round of friendlies starts. Gives me no confidence to go and renew my ST.

BTW I heard weeks ago that Kevin McNaughton would be expected to sign for a club in the Dundee-Angus area. Apparently he's been getting a new house built near Forfar.

Not a criticism of you or the player sponsorship system Scotty, but it would help if we knew what players we have in the squad to sponsor.
