Some of the vitriol being spewed across social media is disgusting and a lot of it coming from so called diehard fans.

Shameful.

Just out of interest what posting on this forum topic regarding the fans comments do you object to, that you consider vitriol or disgusting? I believe any criticism I’ve read is valid, opinionated and fairly put?

In fairness to STFU he does say these comments were on social media, not posted on here - and you’re absolutely right about the fairness of the criticism that we’ve read in this forum.

Same question to the same person. Substantiate and provide your evidence. Or is it just exactly what it is!!!

Went along to Saturday's game fully aware there might be a negative reaction after Tuesday's 4-star performance and boy, was I right! We were just so slow and many an advantage lost by pratting around with the ball where a strong run up the park may have been more effective. At our current level I can't help thinking a Mark Ridgers style hoof up the park might offer better scoring opportunities than tippy-tappy.

Well we are where we are and the team have done a great job getting us to a position where we will probably survive in Div.1, but just can't help thinking that, as a full-time team among mainly part-timers, we should be pretty much setting the pace!

Loving the heads gone stuff when fans question the manager or club (again). Its reminiscent of when criticism wasnt welcomed of Dodds or the last regime - see how that all panned out!!!

Certainly IMO entitled to question whether the manager is a strong enough character to drop his AM as clearly Billy is not playing based on contribution or ability anymore its clearly nepotism. I stand by my point that BIlly should be nowhere near starting in that team - this season he has systematically demonstrated an inability to lead the line, hold up play, turn a man or even score any goals. Why SK is not seeing this, its unclear and before anyone states 'we have no other options' - give Cairns 90 mins and see what he does while Alfie is out, he cant be any less dynamic.

If we never brought in Bavidge we would be fighting Dumbarton for the drop its clear we now revert back to pre-xmas with dominating games, creating a bucket load of chances and seeing our central striker spurn great opportunities. Having scored 100+ goals for the club, its not just a dip in form, he's fallen off a cliff!! Without Alfie if the midfield dont score, we wont get goals - and dont start me on our corners and set piece play - lets try some variation rather than 8 players in the 6 yard box standing still!!!

A disappointing result, how much did both the Dumbarton game [a heavy pitch] and the Stennie game, empty the tank?

And obviously not having Bavidge may have taken a slight wind out of the sails, although we scored three goals after he went off in midweek. Longstaff a loss, and now Macleod.

That said it sounds a fluky win for Annan

That faint hope of promotion play-off place perhaps extingushed. But no way Dumbarton will catch us, and if we end up in the wrong play-off hopefully Bavidge and Longstaff will be back

Obviously the news today over a lack of buyer hardly helps the mood

But the 'fat lady' singing isn't even on the horizon.

Obviously one of those weekends, as I was at a freezing Sutton United on Saturday and they lost terrible 0-3 at home

Wonder where this will leave Keith bray?
 

Dunfermline Athletic have sacked head coach Michael Tidser after 60 days and 11 matches in charge.

I didn't accuse anyone on here of anything and if you are desperate to see it then a look at some of the responses the club posts on X and Facebook is a good place to start.
