Holy Marv

I don't get people sticking up for Smith and giving it the whole 'width of a post away' malarkey. If for better tactics throughout the campaign then we wouldn't have had to be a width of a post away as we would have won the title prior to that game. Ayr handed us chance after chance to stroll that league. Shoehorning players to fit a 4-4-2 is embarrassing and it's easy for us in the stand to criticise because it's embarrassing and old fashioned. Our away form is utterly atrocious and called for a change in tactic last year but we were subjected to a 4-4-2 week in, week out. You only have to look at the games where we conceded in the last minute to drop points where every other manager would have went so defensive and taken off attacking players to see out a game but he didn't do anything at all and kept a 4-4-2 even though we were 5 minutes from a win. The embarrassment of dropping points all season when ahead of the pack is enough to see him go, then the worst performances you'll ever see in the playoffs further added to the case for him to be binned, then his recruitments in the window have further added and now we have the results against cowden and cove to further add to it. I genuinely do not understand how anyone can say we have no right to criticise Smith or anyone that thinks Smith should have half a season or even a quarter for that matter. He is out of touch with the game and has no tactical knowledge in the slightest but has now blown our budget on a make shift, injury prone squad with no width. Looks like we are in for a season of Yogi Hughes tactics of playing 4 central midfielders in the middle of the park.. Yass

Scott Fraser released from Dundee United... a bit of an adventurous shout and probably can’t afford but a man can dream

Oh aye, just realised it's July... Would still like to see a couple of signings..

Anyway, patter is absolutely pish here. Noticed we have a friendly in just over a month and absolutely no hint or rumour of any players being signed.. Wouldn't mind seeing a couple of signings ASAP.

Moshni and M'voto up tops

Never thought I'd agree with an Ayr for nor hear one actually talk sense... It was not proven in court, some guy writing his findings on the case means nothing. If he bangs goals in and takes us back to the Championship I really couldn't care less.

Love Davo couldn’t get the word ‘well’ out.... I’ll eat the right things, eat well and drink....... Even he knows that saying he’ll drink the right things is an empty promise

Yeah but surely his tenure should be looked at the fact we’re back to square 1, if not in a worse position than when he took over?

Must say, I agree with the majority of the releases/retains. Would have liked to see Buchanan booted but wouldn't be able to afford to let him go and also wouldn't have minded Furtado getting a new contract. I know his fitness leaves something to be desired but he looks like he could be a player with proper training/coaching. Would like to see some faces coming in soon though as we are bare bones as it is! Thomson going part time wouldn't bother me to be honest. Chipped in with goals the past season but his footballing ability is absolutely atrocious. Any time he gets it he just hoofs it. Same with Robertson, he is composed off the ball but as soon as he gets it he wants rid of it ASAP. Complete rebuild required so here is hoping Smith isn't as clueless as he appears and can sort it out soon. I've not got high hopes, but will see who he manages to get in. I understand Booth is out of contract..... Now that would be a signing! The Sim interview is interesting. He seems a genuine guy who wants to do the best for the club but probably didn't realise the extent of the job and is now up to his knees in cow pat. It worries me the extent of how much is needed to bring the club up to speed but hoping he is the man to do it... And that is pockets are filled with cash.
