Much better shape to us today. No idea how Durnan not sent off.

Admire your optimism. Don ‘t share it based on what we are seeing.

Exactly, when you see how Petrie has done it still makes me shake my head at the idiocy of A. Donald and co.

Will certainly get us out of this league....

Defence and goalkeeper still reasonable but when there is little in front of them and the ball keeps coming back it will eventually catch up on everyone. It did second half yesterday.

Smith was doing most of the instructions from the bench yesterday , him taking over is a terrifying prospect - will save me some money though if he did.

Agree with this, have to him some slack as I guess he’s still recovering frim the crash. However, ditching Sellars to bring in Smith is a horrific move and the team are not playing for him at all. Next week against Falkirk is a free hit in my opinion but if we lose the two after that (Montrose away , Dumbarton in the cup) cannot see him staying, especially after that after match interview.

Yeah but we can change by at least playing guys that will put in the effort. Would give most of the guys on the bench a game next few weeks, cannot be any worse.

Doubt we have paid more or relied so much on such utter frauds as Forbes, Kirkpatrick, Tapping and Irvine. A half fit Hilson put in more of a shift that those four jokers. Goalie and defenders have bailed us out before but they are getting dragged down by the listless crap in front of them now. The similarities to the Campbell/Bollan relegation season are gauling. Change things now because this entire club has relegation special written all over it as is.

What heap of shite Weir has assembled.

Didn’t realise just how dirty Ayr are. Did realise how incompetent BBC coverage was.

Yip, our inability to create and take chances will kill us this season. Hilson and Jackson missing so much is a problem but I don’t think either are the answer either.

I’d also absolutely have Docherty starting.

Not for me so far, he and Kirkpatrick massive let downs in the league, Forbes less so but still below what you would have expected. To start turning things around we’ll need goals and hard to see where they are coming from at the moment. Giving tomorrow a miss anyway can’t see anything but a comfortable home win, East Fife were excellent against us at Station Park earlier.

He did indeed. For me Baird and Eckersley are the big losses and we thought they were signed for this season ( they were but we effectively had to release them for personal reasons), signing a heap of duds from a garbage Brechin team was never the answer though....

Looks like being far too long!

^ Jim Weir found.

So like for like with Smith then.

What was it about Brechin’s season last year that prompted us to sign four of their players and now their manager? Utterly baffling.

Bed sheets shat at this news!

Season has all the makings of a relegation special.

I'd like to see how he does with a fit Dale Hilson playing alongside him before making any judgements.

McLean is on loan to us as we have Hilson, Jackson and Currie out. Missing Hilson especially. But we are a bit of a gang at the moment I agree.

A few other imposters can do one as well.

You guys short of defenders , Forfar short of attackers looks like it’s Forfar's defence versus Dumbarton’s attack.
