We need to practice penalties!!!

Naive challenge from Laing ... after the ball had gone ... wasn't even a good cross.

On the goalie front, are we able to recall Mackay from Elgin? If Esson is injured, there's surely a case. Don't know what has happened to OFW. Never great at dead balls or commanding his area but at the start of the season, he still had some excellent games. But now .... there's just too much at stake in the league to be relying solely on him without guaranteed fit back-up.

True story. Well said.

Given Celtic's recent cup performances, Albion Rovers could give us a bit of a doing ... ICT doing no better than Thistle in 1985. Sad times.

Any out of contract keepers around .... what's Jimmy Calder doing these days?

Steven Thomson ... who'd believe he used to play for Rangers

2-0 pathetic from OFW. Needs to do better there

Weighing up the merits of watching BBC with volume muted.

Watching BBC pre-match coverage ... have I missed something ... is it Rangers that are playing?

As scores stand, we will be 7 points adrift from 10th having played a game more with Rangers and Celtic the next two league games.

Bizarrely, peculiarly still tonight we remain the only team in the league to have taken points off Celtic this season ... and yet I have less hope than before that glorious, unforgettable night 17 years ago.

Is he still available? ... that's what I want to know

Define freefall

A bit of honesty from Richie. Respect. Might be too late though if he's lost the dressing room. Feel sorry for him.

No worries bud

I know it's not ... I was quoting our esteemed manager ... Look up "sarcasm" in the dictionary

Remember it's all good ... we're going for top six even though we've lost another "must win"

To be fair, Doumbouya is our top scorer in the league this season to date ... so all the best to him... Delighted to have wee Billy back though.

Barry Wilson and Willie Miller were both bang on with their post-match comments. Forget top six ... Richie is completely deluded with that. Flat, boring, unimaginative. I hope the team sickness story is true because some players, especially Tansey, seemed anonymous, flat, lacking passion or invention. Patrick bossed us for long periods and were more deserving of a win. I normally religiously stay to the end but had to be away early today ... Coincidentally I had no particular wish to stay. We are sleepwalking to relegation and sadly I don't think the board has a game-changer in their locker. Tuesday is big but certainly not decisive. Plenty more points to play for but at the moment I honestly don't know where a win is coming from because I've no confidence we'll beat any team on current form.

Given we have been soundly beaten at home by the other Jags in the recent past by their high pressing approach against us, I fear that formation could go spectacularly wrong. Doran and Cole aren't defensively minded; their undeniable strengths lie elsewhere. We need 4 at the back. Are Meekings, Raven and Horner all out?

It's a shame it wasn't Morton that got Celtic away as it was initially (almost) announced

The curious lack of celebration immediately afterwards had initially led some of us to wonder if the goal was going to stand.

A video clip of the Elgin goal by a "Northern Scot" Elgin press reporter. Described as fabulous free kick by BBC report. I beg to differ. Howler ...

I have been calling for Boden to start and hoped he'd take his chance today. I agree his link up play at times was good but he never looked like scoring and I remember a truly awful lay-off out of play in 1st half. Doumbouya had far more chances and maybe should have scored more but the reality is, without him, we wouldn't have won today. To coin a cliche ... goals win games.
