Why not, he is in the second highest position in the club hierarchy and is fair game to criticise if fans so choose. If he doesn’t like it or can stand the heat, he has the luxury to hand it over to someone else! bc

Crisis, what crisis? We all have to lighten up! Ok, we have had a slow start to the new season, but let’s not loose sight of the fact we already have silverware in the cabinet already with plenty more to play for. The forum is filling its purpose of letting unaffiliated fans express their views. Nothing more, nothing less. Getting enraged in posters allows us to let off steam! Only results and time will determine and initiate change at the club. But it all honesty what or where to we realistically expect ICT to be given our support numbers and geographical location. There’s no individual or group of wealthy investors ‘out’ there, so we’re stuck with what we have. We’re at the level where we deserve to be. Just get used to it! bc

We have the Trust match experience survey to look for ways of improvement with the CEO.

Turkeys (apt term) don’t vote for Xmas!

‘League of cloggers’, A masterful term and worthy to praise and mark on the forum. I struggled over the past few years to find a word that captured the quality and standard of fare on display until you came up with this bdu98196!! It summarises exactly the expected standard and type of football this league coughs up! The recent shortfall in results might lead us to understand we don’t have enough ‘heft’ and thus need more robustness in the team if we are to compete with the more successful clogger teams in the league! bc

Can’t Charlie phone his buddies at parkhead and pull in some favours and get us a couple of decent 3rd pick players! Surely a couple of decades service has earned some credit!

HT 0-1 FT 1-3 ICT - Shaw Abroath - Evans

Fully agree here, Doddsie must be swearing under his breath why the team don’t stick to his game plan and tactics. What more can the manager and coaches do to get these players to carry out his instructions and get the results he deserves? Bc

Was listening to robbo’s excellent radio commentary today at Dingwall. He was rightly extolling County’s prowess of the team and management and just how unlucky they were not to take something from the match. He was rightly disappointed at the final result! I look forward to future radio commentary from our ICT director of football at the County matches this season! bc

What a bunch of moaners! A close match by all accounts and just loosing by the odd goal away from home to a newly promoted team isn’t the end of our promotion bid! Hitting the bar twice and a one man advantage was an opportunity missed to take a point back up the road. BD and SG are going nowhere, we should back them fully! I don’t think we are to far off turning the corner. With a turn of luck we will get the result the team and BD rightly deserves and the fans will forget this early blip! bc

Your assuming Arbroath loose then?

Is it just me, or has there been a distinct absence of BD in the media over the past week? I see for the second time B Wilson is the coaching face to talk to the press regarding the team. Just wondered if BD has an illness or been told to lay low just know!! Don’t think he has it in him to think the 5 losses are something to do with him, but strange things happen! Just find it interesting!! bc

I know Zip about the new bloke, however let’s hope he has an independent mind and is more open to the fans (trust and unaffiliated). That would be a step forward. Anyway - I wish him well and will watch with interest. Maybe the start of some manoeuvring or setting a mark for future shuffling at the top? (Can’t be any worse ‘I hope’). bc

I still believe BD will see out (or bulk of) his contract. However your question is ‘Who could replace’ him. A couple of thoughts in my mind. The question of ‘could’ needs a dose of reality on what the club would be able to offer in way of opportunity and package. I think this eliminates any serious existing manager in the central belt. They all want a way back south within 18 months for me. The existing hierarchy would need to change, for me, to enable the fans to get fully behind any new manager. - I don’t see that happening any time soon. bc

HT 1-1 FT 1-2 1st scorer ICT Shaw 1st scorer Airdrie Gallagher crowd 2135

Is that Roy MacGregor?

Fair point yngwie, however experience tells me that once there is a void or gap, someone always looks to the opportunities in that void. Could that be worse than the current lot? Hard to say; they have been anything other than a retrograde step during their reign! I wish it would be the other way, believe me!!! At the end of the day I simply want my club to be a place I like and want to go to see my team play. I hadn’t done that for a handful of years now. bc

Somewhat agree OCG; once over the line it’s the only the team that can deliver. Yes Dodds can’t escape he picks the team, style of play and subs, but it’s down then to them. I hope things improve soon or we are back in a poor campaign start to the season. bc

I am in the ‘he’s got a two year contract, so let’s just get on with the season’ camp, however even my stubborn position looks fragile. Fans are like the wind though and can change on a single result. A good performance and result against Airdrie or Arbroath will swing most sensible fans round to sticking with our lead coach and manager. bc

I was going to ask (to me a legitimate question), what was the Supporters Trust view on Robbo, but I get shot down when I raise such questions, so I retract it! bc

Define a mass! A pile of supporters ‘walked’ during a pile of matches last season in disgust of what was on show. It was noticeable to me in the North Shed.

We shouldn’t though, criticism is unwelcome on the forum!

Pity most of recent comments are on Robbo (me included ) and not on todays game. I wasn’t at the match and would like to hear from those that were. BBC reports that we came close on more than 3 good chances but failed to get the equaliser. Doesn’t sound as though we were too far away from getting something from the game? Just wish we could get through a game without loosing a goal. Not meaning to discard any attacking play, just right now it’s always a claw back position which piles the pressure on the team as the clock ticks down.

Wonder if robbo is covering the shinty ?

A 0-0 result will be a step in the right direction for me. I’ll take the defence begining to settle down and eliminate goal against errors (for taking forward), that go kamikaze for a win then loose the next two games. bc
