We didn't play well in the first half that is a myth and not true, we created nothing in first half Second half a decent stranraer team who have been playing well picked us apart quite easily The manager must go, not been playing well, getting thumped regularly, he doesn't play fotheringham and goodfellow who are 2 players with some experience which the squad is screaming for, continues to play ecrepont in defence where all his strength is going forward, he waits till 86 mins when we are 4-0 down before making 3 subs why leave it so late, time is running out im afraid You accusing me of spreading fake news mate

Today might well be the 'end of the season' anyway: lockdown fast approaching once again...

Created little in the 1st half but didn’t expect that level of capitulation in the 2nd half. Use of subs baffling. Some soft goals again conceded

Serious question-how long can the “at least Brechin got beat “ narrative hold? End of the season? Lucky for you Roy I was brought up in the Baptist Church where gambling was frowned upon or I would be offering you a wee wager with some confidence it has to be said.

2 of the last 3 games we've shipped 4 goals in a half. A win in between can't mask just how bad that is.

Woeful result after last week’s victory. It’s clear to me that Reid is out of his depth. I genuinely despair at the ‘as long as Brechin are worse’ narrative. Hugely damaging and, potentially, dangerous. Fearful for the coming games.

As some have already mentioned, the managers team selection and substitutions are baffling and seem like self-destruction in some cases. Why was our most dangerous player and our most realistic route back into the game hooked?
Granted he was not having a great game, but Aitken would surely have buried the penalty and would have been a real threat from set-pieces. We certainly didn’t look like scoring any other way.

Having only seen the highlights that was disappointing after last week.
Didn't look like we created much which even in other defeats we have had opportunities.
Hopefully the cup game will bring a good result and we can kick on from there.

The cup tie cannot have come at a more difficult time after yesterday - this is not a lowly south of Scotland outfit nor a Fort William highland outfit. We need to be on our triple AAA game for this - the players need to respond !

A win on Saturday could be just the springboard we need to turn things around, and would at least give us another cup match.

I really don’t see things improving this season. Let’s be honest, our only hope is Brechin remaining marginally worse.

Every silver lining does have a cloud, sorry for trying to be upbeat!
