Can I just say, don't comment if you weren't there today. The guys put in a great shift and it was a very entertaining game. A couple of defensive lapses cost us dearly - ONWARDS AND UPWARDS!! I was there today (and i drove)so sober. A couple of mistakes yer arse,,,at least 3,,and thats the ones they scored by.Utter defensive shambles for a whole 90mins. Have you watched them at corners? set pieces? long balls? If your happy paying to watch your team score 4 but let 5 in then wire in,

Today was discracful nothing short.
sack perry now, first time keeper has been dodgy and marr was rotten defensively.
Shouldnt be 2 goals up with 10 to go and lose.
I like the manager and his team. They show alot of passion. But have alot of work to do to sort the center halfs out.
Everytime the ball is flung in we look like conceding

I did leave early cos I knew we would never keep the lead. I was 20 seconds outside the ground and the East Fife goal fanfare blared out. Aaaargh. Still think we have enough skill and leadership in a great manager who should be on many a team's radar with our progress. My 66/1 each way bet for a place 1/2/3 is still looking good. If we sort defence we could win this league. Now what's £100 × 67 = £6,700. Plus ew money. Go on Rovers.

68 goals in 13 matches. For 36 against 32. Sack the board!! Move in with Airdrie! Turmoil!! I wouldn't at all be surprised if 36-32 was our next scoreline !!!!!! Rovers fixture is a cert on the BTTS coupon

Everytime the ball is flung in we look like conceding What worries me is we've now played our first quarter of the season so every team in the league now knows our weakness. The forwards and midfielders seem to be doing their job the pressure is off them. Communication and winning aerial balls should now be the number 1 priority until things improve. In my opinion we have the very man to do it: maybe at training Stuart Malcolm should take Lightbody, Marr and Perry and the goalies aside for most of the session and practice this with them until they get it right.

I hope the players read these posts on here, and i hope yesterdays game teach them a lesson that if Rovers are winning it stays like that, with the hole team getting the ball away from the Rovers goals when needed, so lets hope no misshapes next week against queens park.

Yep, I'm sure the manager and the players are aware that the defence needs to be better. All very ironic if you remember the match in December 1989. Partick Thistle were winning 4-2 at Cliftonhill and the arrogant sods were chanting 'worse than East Fife' at us. Rovers went on to win 5-4. Funny old game, innit?

Perry and Marr completely shatter Gordon Strachan’s theory on having the genetics to be good footballers.

So who is going to play in defence if we 'sack' them? I know, let's get some top players in and pay them some big wages. Oh wait...we tried that! Is this really how we are going to react every time we lose?

Anyone care to admit for all his plus points the manager got it wrong by not keeping the Dunlop brothers.

Perhaps; but singling out individual players for constant criticism does no good whatsoever. In fact, the goalkeeper was to blame yesterday, but Perry gets automatic criticism and hardly a mention of goalie errors. Some players are of course 'untouchable' no matter what they do. Last year's hate figure was Ross Davidson. Who is next? Ok mistakes were made; but nobody slagged them off when we beat Raith. Sing when yer winnin etc.

Just my opinion; what would I know; but I'm sitting here in leafy Dunbeth looking at the Sunday Mail sports pages. Joint top scorers in Scotland; biggest away scorers in Europe by a mile; third in the league. We lose one (and only one) crazy away match and it's sack, sack, sack. FFS!!!!!
