For me: Tansey Draper Raven but feel Tremarco, Laing, McCart and Mckay did well too. Vigurs deserves mention too, as having one of his better games until injured.

So did I, although I respect the views of others. We have tightened up at the back, which was needed. The downside is that there can be too much of a gap between midfield and attack. When we moved it fast today, we were pretty good. My only complaint was not changing it when one up. I'd have played King or Cole in place of Anier at that time, leaving Billy up front on his own but with a midfielder backing him up. We are off the bottom, still in touch, only one defeat in 6, so have cause to believe we can stay up. And I'm not a "happy clapper"!

I hope I'm not wrong, but I'm more positive than many of the other posters. Even the BBC pundits felt we deserved to win f on what I heard.

Just in from game and may post again later. Gutted we didn't win, as I felt we could hold on. Pity we didn't get a second when we had them on the rack and hit the woodwork. The way we started the second half was great. Still, only one defeat in six in the league, but turning draws into wins is what we need. Felt the County goal was a soft one to lose, but need to see both goals on tv. On this whole, I felt the defence did ok, allowing the full backs to push on more. Tansey was the pick of the midfield, closely followed by Draper. Polworth and Vigurs did OK on the whole, with a couple of decent Vigurs efforts with his wrong foot before he got crocked. Mckay did well when the ball went near him, and Anier was hit and miss, needing a better first touch, but when he got it right he did ok. Would have liked to have seen Cole or King come on when we were one up to add pace and support. Disappointed, but still believe we can stay up. Roll on Kilmarnock!

According to BBC, Schalk is fit too. A really big game, lets all get behind the team and get the win we want!
-
Great to see Marley doing well in the Championship. His part in the cup final should always endear him to us!
-
I wasn't there so can't comment on the performance, but against our bogey team and without our two top players this season, Tremarco and Draper, I will take the point. The three above us lost, so one point closer. Still a long haul, but there is hope!
-
Will be interested in your view, but as our record in Maryhill is poor, I see getting out of jail as a bonus. We have gained a few points with very late goals, which has kept us in touch. I can't wait for the derby, we are overdue a performance and result against them. I still enjoy recalling the 3-0 win in Dingwall last season, particularly the way Drapes celebrated his goal. More if the same on Saturday I hope!

But only 1 defeat in 5 league games since the Hamilton debacle....

Not good, hope he comes back fitter and better than ever.

I couldn't get to the game as was in Manchester. When. Turned my phone to flight mode as late as I could and was hopeful of getting t half time at 0-0. Turned it back on when the flight landed and horrified to find we were 4 down. Anyway, whilst we were hopeful we never really expected anything, so we must put it behind us and focus on the next game. 11 left to save our season and performances like the Rangers game can surely let us achieve that. Just a pity other results this week have been a nightmare.
-
If all fit, Raven, Mckay, Meekings, Tremarco
-
I only watched the last 20 minutes but seemingly Partick Thistle were very poor today and only had their first real chance at the very end, so hopefully they are the same on Saturday. Danny Devine sent off for two bookings. I'm not an expert on how suspensions work when the cup is involved: does he miss out next week?
-
Agreed but we must aim for 10th or above!
-
Glad I'm not a statistician!
-
Motherwell leading and that won't help if they hold on, but I suppose it drags Kilmarnock back into the mix, but it will leave us 5 off 10th.
-
Looks like a four way fight now, County, Motherwell, Hamilton and us. Roll on the derby on 18 March!
-
Fon Williams Mckay Tansey but could just have easily included Raven, Mulraney and Draper!
-
It had a message in a box saying it was closed to new posts. Will try again.
-
As I can't post it on the MOM thread, I went with Fon Williams Mckay Tansey but Raven, Draperand Mulraney all deserved points tonight too!
-
I went hoping and came home delighted! A very poor start, but the break in play for Tremarco's injury seemed to let us regroup, and I thought from then on it was quite even. Two great goals, but agree with others that Tansey should take any penalties. Second a goal of the season contender? I was surprised Warren didn't start, but the result is what counts. Fon Williams kept us in it early on. Raven excelled when switched to left back. Mckay had a tough time, but Cole helped out. First time I have seen Laing and he did OK, and McCart much more assured than against Dundee. Great game from Tansey, Draper his usual self. Mulraney has come on a lot, but seemed to pick up a few knocks. Cole did OK, and better defensively than I have seen him. Polworth had a slow start but improved after a bollocking whilst Tremarco was down. Still feels he should give us more. And then a stunner from Mckay! Great night, particularly as I had three Rangers fans next to me. Strangely they left as soon as the second goal went in. If we get anything on Wednesday, it is a bonus. Partick away is the focus for me now! Very well done to the management team and players. Up to 11th, let's keep it going. Unbeaten in three league games!

We are due our first league win this year! I'd go with the "Foran XI" above, but with Doran in for Mulraney.
-
Dundee winning afainst Rangers was unexpected and unhelpful, but gives us hope we can get a result on Friday evening.
-
Be interested in views from those at the game. Would have taken a point before kick off but disappointed we did not hold out. Sounds like Hearts hit woodwork twice and we did once, but hopefully the point and penalty save show things may be turning for us: time will tell. Sportscene report says we were battling, hopefully a positive sign too. Still two big games coming up. Anything we can take from them will help. 14 games without a win is worst ever run in the top flight of the SPFL apparently.

Fon Williams saves a penalty.
