I think we have to focus on the fact we have to win on Friday,anything less is no use.The fly in the ointment is our home form.We do that and we can hope Airdrie pull out all the stops against Queens.

Maybe we should pair McGregor up front with Samuel at least that way we might get some action on the Morton goal.

Well the boys know what they have to do,so we can expect a nail biter.

Maybe someone should stop Ferguson getting to the game .

Unleash the dogs Dunc - three points on the way. 

You being the expert regarding dogs from the hayloft and Dillinger's halcyon days. 

After today’s results it’s sadly out of our hands all we can do is try and win or at least draw next Saturday and pray QP implode. 

The great Highland Franchise Experiment has never looked so fragile shame on the so called guardians and blazers.

53/47 possession - 15 shots, 6 on target and 2 blocked, 8 corners and a missed penalty. Sounds like we were under the cosh and the tactics were all wrong.

We were honking today. Dunfermline had the deckchairs out and still easily handled our limited attacking threat. In a game we simply had to win we probably had 3 good chances over the ninety. 

We needed to be XL Bully's but instead we got a group of Chihuahuas. 

I hope I'm wrong but I can't see that side today beating Montrose over two legs.

Well I sheepishly slunk into the stadium today, embarrassed by the fact that I hadnt seen the team this year. Other things had taken priority. Other things were more enjoyable. Other things offerred more value for money......things that had always had to take a back seat behind ICT. I was doing my duty, I felt, to support my team in their hour of need. I will travel to Inverness next week also for the denouement. However, I have to say that the product on offer today was so poor. On this evidence our players simply arent good enough. The loanees arent playing for the shirt.......why should they? It is scarcely credible that, had the penalty gone in, we would have won that game. I am not going to single out players.....that was a shitshow. Inept. If we stay up by some miracle then next year will only be worse again and more fans will drift away. I feel sorry for Ridgers who has to watch this every week.

As long as we hold them to a draw and Airdrie pull out a win, we should be sound as a pound and be safe on Goal Difference

It's not the players - it's the manager

I’ve just done a bit of research in case anyone is interested 

We’ve had 16 seasons of playoffs and only 5 times the Championship club has been saved.

Interesting. Four teams in it so a one in four chance, which pretty much corresponds with those outcomes. The odds are against us.

Not sure if this has been discussed, but the dates for the playoffs are officially out now.

Firstly, credit to the large travelling away support who were noisy throughout the game. Just a pity about the idiot verbally abusing Samuel in the first half due to his Dingwall connections: totally uncalled for.

The game was disappointing. We were the better team throughout, but our inability to turn possession into goals was our undoing yet again.

I need to see the Dunfermline goal again as an awkwardly placed pillar obscured my view but it looked like an unchallenged header.

Our penalty was a bit soft but we couldn’t capitalise on it.

We were much better after Pepple came on and he took his chance well from a difficult angle.

We had a few shots but didn’t really test the goalkeeper.

I felt there was an urgency amongst the team but it turned to desperation as the game went on, highlighted by an argument between Ridgers and Boyes about who would take a free kick deep into stoppage time.

It is out of our hands now and we need to focus on beating Morton on Friday and hoping Queens Park don’t win.

Did anyone actually expect Billy to score it? It’s just not happening for him these days.

That has been the case this season where we could say we were the better team at many games and the other team pops up and scores a goal and three points to them   If we can't score we will not win games.

It will be squeaky bum time on Friday night

'Tactics'..........seriously??

We have become an embarrassment.

Yes he took it really well, and was generally a handful for the Dunfermline defence who had coped easily with our other forwards.
