The playing surface is absolutely fine and the wind is to be about 15mph at around 3pm, dont see any issues

And how many of those players from when you hilariously bottled it against Kilmarnock are actually left? A good strike by Michael McKenna (who did nothing in the rest of the game) is what won you the game.
And you’ll be down the bottom of the diddy league ya trumpet.

Can’t really get excited about any games in this cup. If we get through and maybe land a favourable draw ill Start to get a wee bit interested.
as mentioned, all the fringe players should start

Actually kidding
wouldn’t want to walk the dug in that weather. Good on Dunfermline for sorting before we set off

Personally speaking after numerous AFC fans stating "the performance of us against PTFC was the best i have seen in years" i would have played the same starting XI against ICT and i do not think anybody (including Ricky) could have complained.
Yes Ricky has been a superb player for us over a decade and long may it continue but there is nothing wrong in competition and if you lose your place for whatever reason and the player coming in has a great game then you have to go on the bench and fight your way back into the starting XI and that should go for every player.
I actually thought we played well on Saturday apart from 3 howlers of goals against and i am sure if the game went on for another 15 minutes we would have got a draw and maybe a win.
Also could not believe we took Hylton off as he was causing them loads of problems and looks a threat everytime he gets on the ball.
I like Balde but his crosses into the box on Saturday was always down their Goalies throat.
I thought we would struggle against ICT purely because they got a new Manager and as so nearly always happens they get a victory.
Onwards and upwards onto the Pars game, C'Mon the Red Lichties 36-0.
A lot of hindsight going on there, if we had played the same team and lost, everyone to a man would have been saying Little should've been brought in, most were shouting for Bird to play ahead of Turan also. I actually think the team that started on Saturday is our strongest 11 but Ricky certainly had a poor game so be interesting to see what happens next.

Ricky had a poor game on Saturday, he has played very well the past 5/6 weeks like most of the team, wouldnt be dropping him after one bad game.

Two changes. Bird and Little back in
1 -
Yep, I’d have us favourites given the run we’re on and the comfortable cup win a few weeks ago

Harsh on Norey not to keep him in team but I suspect Little will come in. He was a bit unlucky to get sent off but that clown Napier. Be funny to see big Dunc at Gayfield

Tattie was a regular poster when the team were on a poor run. Doesn’t post as much now, strange considering he calls himself a supporter
There’s a few gone missing the last few weeks, one in particular but he/she will crawl back out as soon as we lose a game

50 points to stay up in a 10 team league? surely not. There will always be 1 or 2 teams who really struggle. Get to 38-40 points as quickly as we can then see where that takes us. I like the look of the next two games, inverness/dunfermline, 4 points would be good.
Also, hopefully we can have a scottish cup run this year and keep going in the diddy/jobbies cup

Regards Norey I have heard we’ve played a few bounce games on Monday nights so he’ll have been playing games probably. Thought he did well yesterday, not sure I agree with the whole “didn’t see that coming” take on yesterday, we won 3-0 at Morton and won three straight home games pretty convincingly so I was confident going into the game.
Scott Stewart was excellent again, pretty much kept their winger quiet the whole game who looked a dangerous player early on. The midfield has a consistent shape/balance to it now with slater, Gold and McKenna. Slater and Steele have adapted to the championship very well, would still like to see a bit more of stowe

Always thought we had the makings of a good team, fucking about with Scott Allan and McKenna in a midfield two in pre season / betfred and playing two up front was never going to work but since the first whistle of the QP home game has seen a quite remarkable turnaround. Not getting carried away but today felt like we were watching the team of two years ago again, possibly even better going forward.

Another routine win. Pretty straight forward throughout. Feared the worst a bit with Little being out but solid at the back and what a find Hylton has been so far, he was outstanding again
5 -
Yep, very good opening 45. Hopefully keep it going, definitely more goals in it for us
1 -
Or Norey at right back

There’s no way I’d be taking Gold out of midfield

Ricky’s sending off, a good experienced referee has a word with him, he barely touches the guy at all, if anything he has a word with Gold for the initial foul. It can’t be dissent as he’s literally got the card out right away. Ricky’s 2nd yellow is probably a yellow
The Airdrie player two booking is really pathetic. Both weren’t yellows.

The incident at hamilton which was never a sending and was quite rightly overturned was definitely in the refs head yesterday. He couldn’t wait to book and send Ricky off.

aye coz 3 wins makes everything ok LOL
Great few results and we want the momentum to keep going, but you must be awfy stupid if you think a couple of wins gets him off the hook
Yeah f**k him, get him sacked tomorrow.
Even by your usual moronic posts this is saying something. I don’t think he was even on the hook never mind off it . Gladly the majority of our fans are decent and could see the improvement in signings and performances.

The guy is a just a pompous , arrogant twat of a man, there’s just no need to act like he acts. It’s not going to get him further up the ladder or impress anyone so this school teacher attitude only makes the fact that he’s a shocking referee worse for him

There was some crazy shouts from people on here 3 weeks ago wanting the manager sacked. LOL

Yep, loved him as a player and seems to have had mixed success as a manager so maybe coming as a coach will work for us and him. Always came across as a leader type
