Still no official word on Bavidge? If he’s out for rest of season we’re in big trouble!

[bishbashbosh]

Arbroath are romping to the title. Hopefully their game v Annan on 19th April they need a win to be champions.

that would give us hopefully a free hit against them the next week and 3 points as they will be free wheeling to the end of the season.

Since we went into administration and released Brooks, he has scored 9 goals. Meanwhile, in the same time Billy has scored 1 (a late penalty when we were already 2-0 up).

[LisleRightPeg]

Bad bad day at the office. No Cairns or Walker in the squad today? Bavidge is a massive miss and with Remi being suspended today was always going to be tough. But I never expected 4-1 

[Peleistheman]

Game against Annan was a 8 pointer now down to goal difference. Some work to do now

[caley100]

Not to mention the obvious boost to their confidence, And the huge dunt to ours!!

He has pace! Our defence struggles playing against pace. 

[Haugh Aye]

1st half was acceptable.
2nd half...what a shocker. Like watching a Ferguson team. I remember 1 effort on goal and lots of wayward passes, no pressing and shocking defending.
As for the guy with the whistle, I'll not give him the title of referee, 2 blatant penalties for ICT not given, Keith Bray pushed to the ground from 2 handed pushes between the shoulders at least 5-6 times one of which lead to a QoS goal nothing given.

MoM--Fans.

Bad day. We can't influence injuries and suspensions. Need to keep our heads regroup and get ready to go again next week.

[+CaleyHedgehog]

Lost the battle, but it's the war that we are going for. keep calm and carry on lads.

Pregnant footballer Jack Hannah wheels away in delight after scoring his first goal for Queen of the South. Jack, who identifies as a footballer, scored the equaliser five minutes after Alfie Stewart had opened the scoring for the visitors. Queens eventually routed the Caley Jags 4-1 with further goals from Jordan Allan and a brace from Admin Books. He really has it in for us and was a pain in the rain.

I think we would all be the same if the club owed us cash.

We’ve hit a rough patch at a bad time. One point in our last three games has got us right back in the relegation playoff mix.

It was probably inevitable this would happen at some point and I’m sure the Manager and players are determined to turn it round.

Our squad is being stretched to the limit and it will be good to have Savage back for the Cove game.

I remain confident we will pick up enough points to stay above Annan and avoid the dreaded play off.

However, it will be a tense end to the season for us.

That nice wee 6 pointer with Kelty is starting to look rather crucial…

10 months of conditioning under the previous manager doesn't easily disappear.

[+DoofersDad]

Let's hope it was just "one of those days".  That was my first away game for quite a while and it was so disappointing to see such a poor performance from the boys.  Despite disappointing results in the last 2 home games, they played much better in those than in this dismal defeat.  As Scott says, we weren't too bad to start out with and we got into a lead with a smartly worked goal from a quick free kick.  Unfortunately, we conceded a soft goal soon after and from then on Queens seemed to be fired up and our heads went down.  With Savage missing from the back line and Nolan taking a knock and having to be replaced early in the 2nd half, we needed the midfield and front players to step up and keep the ball at the other end.  Instead it was pretty pedestrian stuff with nothing like enough movement or driving forward.  Queens showed them often enough how to do it and were quicker and more positive than us all over the park.  We can maybe moan about the disallowed goal and the failure of the ref to award a stonewall penalty, but the fact is that for the last 60 minutes of the match we were totally outplayed.

I looked over to the technical area and I had this image of Big Dunc standing there in his pullover in the driving rain, hands by his side and making occasional gestures to a player to pass the ball backwards or not to encroach beyond the half way line.  Yes, it really was that bad!

The only (and I stress ONLY) good thing about Big Dunc’s awful approach is that we didn’t get heavily beaten, it was just a series of one goal defeats! In the last three months we’ve lost 4-1, 3-0 and 4-1 again. Thankfully we’ve had some good wins too, which would never have happened under him.

[CELTIC1CALEY3]

Maybe a change of tactics is needed. For some time now since Administration began the philosophy was we must now start winning games. Admittedly the squad numbers have been depleted recently by injuries and a key player suspension but the need now is not to lose games. In days gone by eking out an extra point or two could have saved us - relegation both from the SPFL and Championship!!  Starting this Saturday it needs a more cautious approach with regard to defence not that this means 11 behind the ball.  However, charging off at speed in the first 25 minutes will not succeed. We played really well against Cove in the Scottish Cup so need to try and repeat the desire to stop losing.

[Ronaldo]

Nope, I'll settle for charging!
