Do we have any info yet on Ridgers and Welsh being missing yesterday, and whether they they are likely to be back next week?

There are ways to salvage something from this season. Changing those structures may or may not help us in the long term but would not improve our utterly dismal form.

Nobody was complaining about structures and roles when we were top of the league. What’s more relevant is what’s gone so horribly wrong in the dressing room and dugout since then.

Great news. Delighted that he got to show off the goal celebration he’s been practicing for about 2 years 😃

Yes, 10 in our first relegation and 14 in our second. Those bad runs were also over the winter months.

I see we won 10-1 on corners today. It wouldn’t surprise me if this season’s stats show that an ICT corner is more likely to lead to a goal for the opposition than for us, we certainly don’t seem to do much with them. Our first one today went out for a goal kick and didn’t even make it as far as the front post.

Instead of Harper, absolutely!

But instead of an external appointment, if Robbo could be persuaded to return to the helm, we would have a better manager and wouldn’t be increasing the wage bill at all. Dodds could then just do whatever Robbo currently does!

It’s hard to imagine that any other manager could get less out of our team than Dodds has over the last 2 months.

Whilst the manager has a lot to answer for and shows no sign of being able to arrest our decline, quite a few of the players are just not showing the basic qualities required of a professional footballer.

The ease with which poor teams from the bottom half of the league can come up here and get a comfortable 3 points without having to do anything special is pretty sickening.

The more time Dodds has had to impose his methods and make this his team, the worse we get.

Game over, season over.

Oh dear. Our players just stand and admire what a good corner that was rather than anyone trying to defend it. Not good enough.

Shane’s hearing has not taken place yet, but Morton manager Dougie Imrie has today been banned for 6 matches and Arbroath’s Swankie got 4 (both before counting the suspended punishments). Imrie’s punishment was for breaches over the same 8 seasons as Shane, which perhaps gives us an indication of the likely ban if he is guilty, although I expect it would also depend on the size of the bets and whether his own team was involved in the matches.

More likely QotS if they are still looking.

Fair point, but Carson has previously been superb in that position, puzzling that he’s not so impressive there now.

100% OG, Duffy knocks it in off Ridgers. Difficult ball to deal with so I’m not blaming Duffy at all for that, but based on his overall performance and other recent ones I very much look forward to Devine returning.

More points dropped at home and the winless run continues BUT that was our best performance for ages, the team played with spirit and purpose and created a very healthy number of good chances. I was planning on saying all that even before the injury time equaliser. Some of our defending was dodgy but we thoroughly deserved something from that match.

A very entertaining game actually compared to the recent dross. But Partick are the better side and certainly look like they will score more goals. Can we?

Wow, a goal, for us! Hope that gives the team some belief.

0-1, game over.

Scott Boden was up front for Boreham Wood in their shock cup win at Bournemouth, for whom Ryan Christie came on as a sub at HT.

Yes after recent weeks, how refreshing it was to watch and support a team playing with passion, pride and no little skill!

Yes that episode does seem to have been a bit of a turning point.
