So we've got 2 x Mackay, 1 x Mckay, 1 x MacKay in our squad, no wonder we don't have any tactics, I'm surprised he can identify each player

I've edited it above

In all fairness, the reality is that they are better players than they are currently showing and while it's up to them to raise their game it's also up to the management team to help them deal with the expectation vs reality that you refer to. I don't think the expectation we put on them as fans is too much. Doing a job they should love must be truly horrific though so my heart goes out to them. If you, and everyone else, tempers their expectation then effectively you're accepting that we are worse and that's a bad thing, it doesn't put pressure on the team that they require to make them improve, work harder and do better. If we accept it, they accept it and nothing will change and we'll only go one way.

I believe it depends on the particular competition however I think the suspension is for the player themselves as opposed to the player at a specific club

Like me you've peeked to early

Do you ever speak properly or are you just on here to stir things up again on a night when there may well be high emotions already! For a club that can't afford to get rid of it's manager what makes you think we can afford Jack Ross as well?

It's about time certain people realised who paid their wages and that it's not the BBC

State of our club perfectly summed up by the fact that Robbo is commentating on Radio Scotland tonight from the Ross County game. I don't care where we are playing , against who or when but he should be nowhere else other than at our game regardless of his role.

I don't hold any optimism for this game at all, maybe that's a good thing as I can't then be disappointed but we've been here before with regards to results. Is it too much to ask for us to perform as a team and show some heart and desire, maybe a bit of hard work and determination?

I hate this saying, while I know what you mean they do have a lot to lose and apart from being knocked out of the cup it's the effect that a defeat or even a heavy defeat can have on the team. Not to mention the fact they should be playing for personal pride. It's not just two bad games though, apart from the Cove game we've not been good enough in the league.

To be honest, I'm going to sound brutal here but if things don't improve quickly 11 games is being generous. Remember that last season we had a better start in terms of points on the board which ultimately saved him back then. If we lose the next 2 or 3 games or should I say don't win them then we're staring at the wrong end of the table in a league that can be unforgiving. It's not just the games you give him, it's the time it then takes a potential new manager to turn it round so 11 games swiftly becomes half the season. Asking should we wait until we've got players back from injury, not for me, I'd be questioning why we continually have players injured. Is it the staff or lack of expertise or are these players just injury prone and better gotten rid of. When does it end and when is enough enough. Last time we were truly supportive of a manager we got relegated.

I've stopped listening to his interviews, they should just play a recording of an old interview as nothing changes nor is he ever taken to task by anyone interviewing him. It's like they pat him on the back and re-assure him they won't ask any uncomfortable questions before they record it.

Whatever the outcome, it's doesn't reflect well on the club and will ultimately have an effect on the business side of things. Why would any potential new investors in the football club want to get involved seeing this. The minute it hit the tabloid rags it didn't matter if it was true or not, that's all people will refer to. Well and truly asleep at the wheel with absolutely no ideas or direction. The fact they saw this as a way to make money for the football club rather than actually focus on the football club making money itself speaks volumes.

Perhaps Mr Dodds should read you match reports, he might get more of an insight from them that what he currently sees on the pitch as from recent viewing he learns nothing from the touchline. There's certainly more effort put into your match reports that's for sure.

1 win in 5 league games, 5pts from 15pts Absolutely shocking, not good enough by any stretch of the imagination. Serious questions should be asked!

I know it's early in the season but we have to get 3pts today, for a team that harbours ambitions of promotion in a league that is extremely competitive, there should be no reason we go into any home game fearing anyone. Morton however are a solid outfit and we have to drastically improve in all areas. Work rate, intensity, fluidity and creativity must be maxed out today and I'd expect 100% from everyone that starts, anything less is not good enough.

While it's early doors in the league, already there's a question that should be asked as it has a huge meaning on your perception to the start of the League campaign - do you see it as one win in four games or one defeat in four games? Yes, most will say that at the end of the day it's still the same number of points but looking deeper into the question, actually it's a very different outlook. I fall in the one win in four camp which in my eyes is not good enough for a team that should have their sights on winning the league and at the very least putting in a very big title challenge. Only three points of top some what hides a sluggish start and already going into a home game against Morton, whom we've struggled against in recent times, already seems like a must win especially given the abject performance last week. I only hope that the management team don't fall into the one defeat in four as to me that would seem to indicate they'd be happy with the league start and a dangerous precedent to set. I can almost get over an abject performance once in a while if we bounce back or if we can turn draws into wins, but for years now the draws have been the most costly in my eyes.
