STV has just reported that the tension between Hughes and the Board is increasing and he could leave before the end of this week.

That would be unfortunate for Ferguson. Also, no mention of Devine in the club statement. Does that have any significance?

Is Marley still out injured?

Thanks David, your goal celebration at last year's semi was epic: the look of surprise on your face!!

I could not make today, but great way to end season. Good that David Raven got his chance to say farewell. After last season, I predicted 8th this season, so we beat that. A tough year in many ways, but overall probably as good as we could have expected. If anything, our home form was the let down, as 7 defeats was far too many. I saw four of them, Motherwell twice, Hamiton and United, and generally came away thinking "how did that happen". We had successes. Polworth made the breakthrough, Storey was a godsend, Draper became our key man, Tremarco has shone. Unlike some, I would give pass marks to Devine and Vigurs. Without the injuries and if Cektic had let Christie stay, top 6 would have happened. On the downside, some signings were poor, and we really need Hughes and the Board to get on the same wavelength and get players signed up. It was a real shame that some players seemed to fall out of favour, especially Raven but also Vincent and Roberts. Looking forward, I will get my season ticket and be there as often as I can, and hope we build a top 6 team and have another cup run. Most of all, we need to get back to unity, Board, Manager, players and fans all working together to make our football enjoyable and successful. But, let's not forget, I'd have taken 7th if offered in August!

Encouraging statement. Intrigued about the likely contract offers and signings. Hopefully we identify a good striker. Looks like Fon Williams is being preferred to Brill.

Like other posters, I hope this gets resolved and Raven stays. There are two images I will never forget: 1. The sheer joy and surprise on his face when he scored the winner in the semi against Celtic. 2. Whilst I was sobering up in Glasgow so only saw it on You Tube, his leading of the singing at the celebrations after the final. I agree, let's make "Stand by me" our song for the rest of the season!

Apparently, according to BBC yesterday, it has never happened and only one team from outside the top flight has ever won the cup, East Fife.

Fingers crossed!

Sorry Renegade, posted before I saw yours!

Heard on radio recently that they make more in a day from funeral teas than they do from away fans. Do we need a crematorium next to the stadium? Lol.

Well said all!

Listened to second half. Great result. Vigurs goal sounded a cracker and he could have had another. Hopefully we kick on and ensure safety. I predicted 8th pre season, but 7th would be nice..

We are, but we remain in danger this season. Even if we win the next two games, top six looks a goner given County play Partick. We need a draw there and Dundee to lose at Hamilton, so very unlikely. After that, we have 5 games against teams we have largely struggled against, so I have my fingers crossed that the positive team appears, and we get the results we know we can get if we fulfill our potential.

I agree. Other than the home Astra game and Saturday he has been pretty sound. that said, would like Deano to stay too!

Ha ha. I wish that was true!

Disappointing result. Thought we shaded it as better team. First goal embarrassing. We should not have lost In terms of players, back four ok, Tremarco was my man of the match and very unlucky not to have scored. We criticise Vigurs, but he did have urgency about him after his goal, so was up for it. Draper was poor, tending to pass poorly but won the penalty. Polworth had a quiet game. Mutombo was lively and in some ways our best hope. Up front, Hughes is being played out of position but worked his socks off. He won a lot in the air but lacked back up. Storey was ok. Both Williams tried hard, would like to see Ryan W get more game time to see what he is capable of, as he seems lively. Not sure whether Meekings may not be fully fit, hence being replaced, as he was reluctant to take the defence on. We should have won today, or at least got a point, so top 6 looks a gonner. Hopefully we get points against Hearts and United, but both will be tough. We need to hope Hamilton lose tomorrow in Aberdeen.

According to BBC, Vincent and Mutombo fit and Raven not far away. Tomorrow's team selection will be interesting against an on form Motherwell. Hooefully the style and passion shown against County is on show again!

He's a midfielder playing up front so did OK in the circumstances. Great day, but we do need a penalty box striker.

A great afternoon. Must confess, I was in main stand as had hospitality: it is tough loving every minute in those circumstances! Only one team wanted it today. Can't fault any of the 14 who got fame time, and it could have been more! Still glad County won last weekend, but 9 points against them in league feels good. Lets get behind the ram against Motherwell and Hearts and achieve safety. Perhaps the top 6 is back on. Well done to the team today. Let's keep up. PS the fans were truly great today but ditch the flares and the antics with the ball.

Could not be there last night as down south: blessing in disguise? Could not believe the team selection, despite being happy JM back. Watching BBC text updates was painful, car crash waiting to happen. Confirmed by highlights. I am going to Dingwall on Saturday fearing the worst but hoping for the best! Bottom six is inevitable. I hate to admit it, but after the highs of last season, I predicted we would finish 8th this season. I would take that now! The criticism of JH and some players on here is justified, but when times are tough the players need to know that we are behind them. Let's do what we can to support and encourage them.

Interesting article on STV website. Over last 8 league games, of the bottom 7 before Motherwell beat Dundee United tonight, only one team has won more points than us. Lets all get behind the team tomorrow, regardless of what happens, and try to help them get the result we need.

Good to see Deano back playing!

Add Calum Ferguson and you have a team!

Well said!
