He clearly is.

Who do we get on "derby days" next season? Dundee Utd? Brechin? Dunfermline?

How do you propose that we release players who still have a contract?!

Is it fair to see that this relegation was far less painful for the fans than the last one? Two reasons- 1. This one has been on the cards for weeks, whereas last time we'd been on the brink of safety for weeks. 2. This time we did what we could on relegation day itself but it was out of our hands, whereas last time we messed it up.

Just trying to guess who he means. Foran recently said that this season we have suffered from injuries and "other player issues" and today it has become clear what he meant by that, whether or not it is a legitimate excuse.

3 bad apples, none in today's starting line up, stayed too loyal to them. Nobody has suggested OFW yet.

Prior to April, he only got 2 league starts - a win v St J and a draw v Aberdeen.

Well he wasn't interested in the offer of a contract extension.

No. He decided to move on early in the season.

Pointless discussion, it is all decided by the major shareholders, and if people want real change it's the major shareholders you have to change, by getting substantial fresh investment or a takeover of existing stakes. Barry Wilson has suggested that one of these things could be on the cards, and if rumours he has heard have any foundation, might even be essential to stave off administration.

I would love to see an interviewer, particularly an ICT TV one, ask Foran why he excluded our most prolific striker from the team for 3 months!

8 Fisher (from 9 starts) 7 Tansey 5 Doumbouya 4 Billy Mckay and Tremarco Will any of them be here next season? We will need a prolific striker.

Regardless of our wish list, these matters will be dictated by finances and not football.

Yep, been saying that for months. The time for togetherness and getting behind the team is over, so with that in mind, let me get the ball rolling by asking Foran to GTF out of our club before he does any more damage.

I guess there's no chance of floodlight failure causing the Hamilton game to be abandoned.

Fisher has now scored 7 in his last 9 appreances. What a pity that he was completely frozen out for the crucial 3 months of the season that saw us pick up only 1 win. Still, he's done enough to have earned himself a contract for next season......at a club playing at a higher level than we will be.

Now just 5%.

If I've got my sums right, using bookies odds to derive probability (not perfect because they make a margin) then our chances of making it to the play off is just under 30%.

Bookies have both ICT and Hamilton as clear favourites to win their respective games, which would obviously mean us finishing bottom. Bookies are usually right......but often wrong!

With just 1 or hopefully 3 games left, I had a look at our scoring charts, wondering how it would compare to our relegation season when our top scorer had just 5 (Rooney, from 10 starts). As with that season, we have clearly lacked a prolific striker - or at least we haven't gone with a line up and tactics that resulted in a player scoring a sack load. I think looking at only league games is the best measure, as all games are meaningful and against full time opposition. Based on this site's stats, we have: 6 Tansey and Fisher (from 8 starts!) 5 Doumbouya 4 Tremarco and Billy Mckay 3 Draper and Polworth Selected others - Boden 1, Anier So whose gonna end the season top of the list? Hopefully Anier!

We've obtained more of our points this season from games v Dundee than from any other team. 7 - Dundee 5 - Hamilton 3 - Killie, St J, Rangers, Well (+ Saturday to come) 2 - Partick, Hearts, 1 - County, Aberdeen, Celtic

To clarify, Dundee Utd's £1.5m loss was for 15/16, their relegation season. I suspect we will have made a loss of around £0.5m this season. That number is somewhat plucked from the air but we all know that to break even we need a high league position, cup runs, player windfalls etc and we've had none of those things this season. The only saving grace is that we must have saved a fortune in win bonuses!

We have now exceeded Dundee Utd's dismal points tally of 28 last season. Whilst we think Foran has done a bad job, and he has, they mentioned last night on Radio Scotland that if you construct a league table from when Cathro joined Hearts in early December, we would be bottom (obviously) but Hearts would be just a point ahead of us!

Cracking goal. But not for the first time, a simple header missed the target. Head shaped like a new pound coin!

It's still a 100% record, but with double the sample size.
