Bair has lost the same header three times in our box and it's already led to a goal. Let's see if anything changes eh. 

Not sure who lost their an but that's 3 of last 4 goals from corners... something to practice in training??

Manger was fuming on the radio and saying a player didn't follow instruction in terms of picking up Rowles at the corner and it had been spelt out to them over and over.

oh well we will see if he plays "said" player the next game   ( if heez still manager )

No shots apart from a row z from Slattery and a defensive header from Bair ,would have dropped Bair and Wilkinson and moved Slattery and Spittal further up and filled the midfield up as it's non existent, Spencer and Gent should have been on from the start ,going to forget this evening and have a few drams and probably spend the £33 Celtic want on more whisky.

The post of yours  the guy is replying to wasn't constructive either , a bit immature, if I am being polite.

What part? Suggesting that we are likely to be relegated or the ‘fat lady’ bit?

Either way, I’ve not seen any convincing argument against my belief that relegation is a distinct possibility (to put it mildly).

Probably the #Relegation, relegation, Ole, Ole, Ole# part.

It's a distinct possibility every season, and if you keep saying it every season, eventually you'll be right. Luckily for us, if you keep saying we won't win every week, eventually you'll be wrong.

Great contribution to the thread. 
 

Do you have any thoughts on the game?

Any thoughts on how we played today?
 

Any thoughts on our dismal performances and form for the last two and a bit months?

Any thoughts about how we can pick up our form??

Or would you just prefer to throw snidey abusive remarks about?

Aye , when i see shite , i sometimes feel the need to call it out. I didn’t know any other way to respond to such a rational and well thought out original post from you. 

Wasnt at the game today so nope.

There you have it.

Oh right. So you weren’t at the game but you “feel the need to call it out”.

So you still feel the need to make crass, uncalled for comments? 
 
You still feel the need to just argue for the sake of it?

Okay, whatever you like. 

[Jastons]

On the first goal , I haven't seen a replay yet but I remember thinking at the game that we should never have conceded the corner from the position we were in

[grizzlyg]

Depressing game , not in mood tonight. Hopefully improving results soon but not convinced

That was a stonewaller. Got away with that BIG time there.

Outside the box? Boyce should have been carded for simulation as he was booted in the chest not head. Also not chest height

Got to question why Wilkinson is even on the pitch. He's done nothing 1st half. I would take him off and bring on anybody. Wilkinson is an empty jersey.

Don't blame him. He's a penalty box striker not a winger or wide midfielder. Hung out to dry like Spittal. If I was him I'd be totally brassed off at SK.

He got back up holding his shoulder, he wasn't holding his head.

He was clearly rolling over in the box with both hands over his face. He dived a number of times without punishment but that was the worst piece if acting by far.

Only positive was the impeccable silence at start of game. Well done to both sets of supporters. My grandfathers and Mrs Grizzly's grandfathers were active in the war so great to see it respected

KInda saying the same things every week now which is worrying.

That's why I think SK's time is up. Despite certain things just not working we repeat them time after time. That can't be allowed to continue.

Hear, Hear mate - said the same thing to my Brother in Law. My grandfather lied about his age to join up and served as a bugle boy at Ypres with the Royal Irish Regiment - I still have his bugle. Nice to see that in this uncertain world, there is still some compassion and respect for those who fought to give us the freedoms we enjoy today.

100% Grizzly. A great show of respect.

Today I saw Spittal at left back, at half time we put a right back at left back, before finally bringing a left back on. Big Bevis played up front.

These things actually happened.

When you break it down like that it's actually embarrassing,throw in playing bair and wilkinson in wider roles,it's no wonder so many are turning on the manager.

bbc radio scotland at the game said he shouldv been booked for simulation as he was holding his head in front of the ref so the ref blew whistle for a head knock,went to the var telly seen it wasnt a head knock so gave a bounce ball but they then said he shouldv been booked for trying to con the ref

Playing Wilkinson at all is a sacking offence
