I think we are all worrying about ourselves. On paper we have a far better squad than over the last few years, but we've not got Dobbie. Okay he didn't play a lot latterly but his influence in the dressing room and on the training ground was massive. Lose today and on Friday night against ICT and we could be bottom of the league and in real trouble. Dunfermline took action because they needed to and could afford to do so. We need to take action if we don't take at least three points over the next two games. What are the odds on that?

It didn't look a hell of a lot better at home but at least it was warm. Crap game but I thought we improved with Liddle and Roy coming on. Apart from height not sure what Cameron offers to be honest, much prefer to see Paton getting a run.

Think he's working on it. A really poor display and certainly our worst this season.

The worst performance I've witnessed for ages. Brynn reminds me of Calum Antell. Hamilton way ahead of us in every department and luck clearly with us. Have the team been in isolation this week?

Anyone know if Jack Leighfield has signed for anyone now his contract with us has expired?

If it is true that Gibson is unhappy, considering his association with the club, then I would suggest that is perhaps more to do with the fact that the management team have new contracts and he doesn't fancy working with them. It's also a fact that Dobbie's announcement that he was leaving came around the same time as AJ and SC's contracts were extended. I know some will applaud the manager for building a new team every year, and on a restricted budget, but unless he's very lucky (or good) we're in for another season trying to avoid the bottom two places.

Stephen Dobbie's value to Queens is not only as a player but as a coach and mentor to some of our younger players. Having him around the club, even when not playing, was a major plus. So sorry his time with us is over but, like many others on here, just so happy I witnessed him at his best. A really top player and nice person who made time for the fans, especially our younger ones.

RELIEF! But I suppose considering the circumstances before the season started we've done okay. Well done to all involved. Not easy for the Board. To try and field a team, against teams with a much larger budget (apparently), is not easy. The Championship is not an easy league so my hope is that next year we can go a lot better. But as I said at the beginning relief that we do not depend on a good result next week.

Well Flash that certainly cheered me up. All we need now is for Greg Aitken to be the referee and we'll be doomed before we start. And we've another two years of this to look forward to!

So we're set up for the play offs, unfortunately the one at the other end of the league. Unlike the last time we had to endure this I don't fancy our chances against any of the contenders.

Please tell me that giving AJ and SC another contract, let alone a two year one is a late April Fool...

John McGlynn way ahead of Alan Johnstone tactically. How AJ doesn't see at half time that a change was required yet he waits until 12 minutes from the end. Now the battle to avoid the play offs at the wrong end. Whatever happens next season please don't renew AJ's contract.

Greg Aitken is, if nothing else, consistently poor. And got to say Buchanan isn't a lot better. Having him as Captain is a joke. He could have got closer to his man at both the first (when he was too busy claiming offside) and the third when he should have closed Liam Buchanan down. Alloa are a good team but poor refereeing decided this game.

Dobbie has been loyal to us and for this and his football ability it's a no brainer...sign him for another year. Okay he may not play every minute of every game but when he is on the pitch opposition players know he's the one to watch. And his influence with younger players is also a major plus point.

Of course with the success of the turn round it makes AJ more of an attraction for other clubs who need a Manager. As many on here have said who would have thought that we would be where we are back in December when most, including me, would have been happy to see a change of management team. Clearly the fact that we sign a new team almost every year of late is a problem so hopefully some thought is being given to signing some of the squad for next season. Big Ayo, Shields and a few others must be top of the re-sign list.

Not a surprise but we simply can't do a rebuild job every season. We will hopefully survive another season in the Championship with the team we've got at present but unless we can find the resources to keep some of our better players then eventually we'll get caught out. When this team gets it together they are pretty good and what a difference from earlier in the season.

Sadly that is the fact of the matter. But I still don't get the fact that AJ doesn't give Goss a run from the start, particularly with our injury list. This is a game, with current injuries, where we'll struggle up front, and I'm not convinced that Mebude, on his own, will do much against big defenders. Goss may just unsettle defenders so is it not time to give him a start, and not the usual 89/90 minute appearance?

Wonder if Del Boy would fancy a cameo appearance? There was a time when the thought of Queens live on TV would excite me...this time round I may just give it a miss. Could be a really bad start to the weekend. Then again it's Queens we're talking about and they may just give us a ???????????

Whatever happens at the end of this season I hope we do not renew the current Manager's contract. Perhaps if we survive another year in the Championship the Board may be tempted to give AJ another contract but that will have us remaining as relegation candidates. Putting on Goss in the 90th minute I can understand if we were winning 2-1and AJ was trying to run down the clock, but if that was an attempt to salvage something it shows someone totally devoid of ideas. I actually think we have a descent team, what lets us down is the management of these players.

Normal service has resumed. The Raith result a blip...we are awful!

I wonder what potential sponsors of Queens will think about being associated with the club now? Hardly a plus point I would suggest and this when added to an absolutely horrendous 'display' by the team on Saturday does not bode well for the club going forward.

AJ must be happy today...the furore about Galloway attending the game takes the heat off him and his assistant. Until tomorrow night that is! However like a few on here I generally back the Board but what in God's name were they thinking about allowing this person to attend the game? We're now the laughing stock of Scottish football, and that takes some doing. Most regular contributors give a lot more to the club than we'll ever see from GG.

An awful display. Even in the warm up we looked a sad bunch. The only bright part of the afternoon was yet another excellent production by QOSTV. These guys deserve a special mention, from a great commentary to really good camera work and replays...mind do we really want to see the? Seriously though well done QOSTV

We were warned how crap Buchanan is but did AJ listen?

Now for the half time AJ team talk! Who will he blame? Got to be the wind!
