In January, a winger unproven at a host of clubs - no. In the unlikely event of any activity the only thing we need is a proven goalscorer, a predator who can convert our chances and take us into, and through the playoffs. Failing that it will be a rebuild on a much reduced budget next year.

Aaron Doran - one who as been here for almost the whole decade, rather than a few good years then off . His time has been blighted by serious injury but he has come back and continues to put 100% in every week.

Good result, but Ridgers saves made as much difference as the two goals scored. Plenty good performances but wastefulness up front nearly cost us again. Definitely not Whites day, but when we played quickly and to feet we looked dangerous - so why didn't we play a forward that is suited to that style...not Jordan's fault, just mismanagement. A bit of thought before Arbroath required - if we just trot out the same team to play the same style against a dangerous mob like Arbroath we will be looking like fools, again. Keeping the gap to Utd only a measly 13pts.?

Maintaining the quality to keep us in top 4 might just do that, but to do anything in the playoffs we will likely need something extra...So if we are serious this year then a loan deal, or two, will be necessary... Alternatively we could make the playoffs again and fall flat on our arses, again. Time to gamble...

Good all round performance I thought, everyone did their job well without too much fuss. Was it a poor Ayr or did we stifle them?? I'd say the latter - apart from a spell after HT , Carson and Trafford owned the middle of the park ( sorry Alan) . They seem to have clicked and are getting their roles nailed down. Carson linking up with Keatings and particularly White was good to watch & I hope this can develop further. Only concern was some of the tackling was reckless - both Rooney & Donaldson picked up knocks from tackles they didn't have to make, although they stayed on its a risk that we shouldn't have to take - another spell out for Tremarco again too. Get them patched up & readied for the next game, make this winter run like the one from 09/10.

The only team we need to worry about is the next one we face. Too often we trip ourselves up with results we take for granted, whilst looking too far down the line. Remember where we could have been if we hadn't blown up against the bottom three teams! We are our own worst enemy. One game at a time please.

Victory for the long ball today.
-
I'd wager Alloa fans are equally as enthused about drawing us.
-
True, apart from appointing referees & linesman and dealing with all player registrations and disciplinary procedures, the SFA has nothing to do with it.
-
Smyths & mcd's not open sundays?? See where our 'fans' spend their time on Saturdays now. ?
-
After leaving at the end of the 2017 relegation season I wonder what's tempted them back? Impressed by a new vision to take the club forward , glad to see the back of a few faces, or maybe a bit of both?
-
No his deal was up next summer but he agreed an extension til 2021.
-
I've not seen anything from Storey that suggests he has any attributes other than pace, he constantly miscontrols the ball or just kicks it too far ahead of himself. He has had plenty opportunities to score as well - as have most of our forwards.

Still dont have a 'go to' player who can score when we're behind or even in a tight game and kick start a revival, too often we push hard to get back in and fall further behind.
-
Think Sheerin/Christie combo with Gary Warren as coach is just as unlikely - did you just pick your favourite legends?
-
So he needs to give them a pep talk / bollocking cos their jobs are on the line...in italics.
-
I think the stats, if they could speak , would.?
-
I think it's whats called being polite and keeping your options open.
-
There goes a few bets down the pan, shoulda cashed out at 0-0 ?
-
Stats paint the picture you want to see... Wins up...good Draws down...good Defeats up...bad Looks good that we have two 'improved' boxes checked but are less draws an improvement if you have lost most of those games you might have drawn?? Not really ? A few more games into the season and the stats will need serious reworking to paint a rosy picture in our current form. Bottom line, optimism is good but quarter season stats can turn bad quickly. Stick to the realism...it doesn't let you down.
-
I think it's an old firm attitude to think we should be up there challenging every year regardless of personnel. It's a tough league and without real strength in key areas you don't stand much of a chance. Livingston did it, but only through the playoffs and with a mean defence.
-
So many results recently have given us a great chance to take advantage, we haven't managed to take these opportunities yet.
-
I remember the teams of those (wonder)years, sure they could have an off game here or there, maybe ship 4 or 5 goals at home but they ALWAYS came back strong the next game.Guaranteed! Damn this nostalgia!
-
Too many balls over the top causing chaos between them...that's not a lack of midfield protection, that's just defending 101. There are issues on the flanks where they are stepping out to cover the missing Tremarco or Rooney too often...but if the manager wants his full backs wandering so far up the pitch he has to organise extra cover.
-
Theres been quite a lot said on here regarding yesterdays poor display, but i'm now quite eager to hear from the manager himself...i wonder which game he saw?
