You can't blame Gibson for the goal he got beat at the half way line surely blame Logan or Armbrose. The problem with Marv Is he is to clever for his own.good .

We never do well against Alloa . We will have at least 5 players out for this. Reilly will be a huge miss our main goal threat . Maybe Marv will add quality to the squad this week highly unlikely as his recruitment has been very poor so far.

It is a massive blow to have Reilly out for a few weeks yet another added to our long injury list . Our only real goal threat has gone no way Doherty or Hutchinson will step up both are on the Marv list of very poor signing yet have 2 year deals. Marv going to add to the squad no doubt it will be boys on loan with no experience. .

Marv game plan nearly worked play for a boring draw make no attempt to win the game. I would rathe we had a go but Marv wil no doubt say he got everything right but some player did not do his job at the goal . He is,never wrong if we make the playoffs i will be amazed .

Good news to get Stone and now Efe signed . Now the difficult part of trying to add quality to the squad for a push for the the playoffs .

Training should be intense like playing a game every day . No point having non contact just running all the time . Injuries are just bad luck look at McKay he just opened up to shoot on Friday hurt his hamstring things like that happen .

Efe has been friends with Marv for years he certainly will not move away because of him .Efe lives 10 mins away from where we train so unless he gets a crazy offer from Cove to move to Aberdeen then we should still be able to offer him a decent deal to keep him till the end of the season . For me he could take on the reserve manager job he has so much experience to pass on to the young players

Our most difficult away game Falkirk are unbeaten and heading for the Championship . We wil be missing a few key players for this if we can somehow scramble a draw it would be a great result .

Marvin is looking to add to the squad for me we need a Iain Wilson type in midfield to start with . I would give Efe a deal till the end of the season . Hope we don't go down the route again of a young player in on loan we really need experience . We really could do to get a few players out but that is very difficult to do.

It was a really poor game Annan are a big physical team at times we struggled with that . Our midfield at times gave Gibson far to much time on the ball we really missed Cochrane and McKay . We won the game scoring 2 really good goals could not really care how we played all that matters is the result . Did not see any close pen calls for either team the ref had a decent game got most things right .

In both games so far Annan were unlucky not to get anything. We will have to be at our best to get the win .Hopefully we will get a decent crowd for this .

All depends on how much investment sadly not looking likely to happen . It was around 4 years ago we beat Raith in the playoffs to stay in the Championship look at both clubs now. We have the same potential as Raith we could treble our crowds with a decent team in the pitch but right now 900 odd at a home League game will not support full time football much longer .

Raith Rovers a club about the same size as ours give me hope that one day with the right investment board and manager that we can challenge at the top end of the Championship . They were not long ago like us struggling in League 1 look at them now

Difficult away game they beat us at Palmy we really struggled to create anything that day . Hopefully Cochrane will be fit then we can go with the same team and set up.

We made very hard work of that what a relief when McGuffie scored . We started well got a good early goal from Reilly looked like we would score more then Cochrane got injured . Todd would have been a straight swap but on came McKechnie we changed formation. We still had chances but we were not controlling the game in midfield . 2nd half not as good Edinburgh had the wind Stone misjudged a long ball goal . Then a superb Gibson goal cut in from the wing beat 2 men hit a brilliant shot into the top corner . Then as the game went on still at 2 -1 Edinburgh started to try and push for another goal we got nervous but to our credit we managed to get a good 3rd goal .

All about attitude we must go with the same as the Montrose game not even think about who is in the Edinburgh team . If we are not at it from the start then we will lose the game Bartley job this week is go with a unchanged team but drill into them that we must give 100% not just turn up expecting to win .

What a result at Montrose I never seen that coming . Brilliant result Still in shock now the hard part to keep that level of performance every week .

I take it you are joking about losing a goal . Brilliant result never seen that coming still can't believe we scored 4 goals be lucky in most games to have 4 shots .

This is all about cost. Will be over £50,000 to get rid of Marv with no guarantee any new manager will do better. Huge gamble for a club our size to take .

Marvin video has sadly appeared . He really talks a good game players being shown what to do told what to do but are not doing it . To me that is poor management take as a example Duncan Ferguson at Inverness he tells you something it gets done. Had to laugh Hamilton turned the lights off half way through even the camera man gave up everyone it seems except our board who somehow think he is going to turn this around

If Bartley is still manager for this then can only see defeat number 11 for us.

This is should be easy for the board . Option 1 Do nothing we will definitely go down to League 2 . Option 2 Get rid of Bartley at least give ourself a chance of staying up it will cost us but it is simply not working with him as manager. Why do we put 3 subs on at the 91 st min when 5 nil down what is the point of that .

That worrys me a bit . At times it was United v Harry Stone think he had a amazing 16 saves he will not do that every week . Players did lift it for the Cup game but will they go back down to the normal rubbish they have played this season time will tell.

The whole draw does not have a decent game in it . We could have got worse say a away trip to the Highlands make nothing at least we will make something . Very difficult a step up from United but we must forget about it for now game not untill 20th Jan.

What Queens will turn up ?. The one that can beat United in the Cup or back to the very poor team that has played every week in League 1 .Hope Marvin plays the same team probably will have no choice with the injuries we have .
