I'm not saying that he should be a LB permanently I'm fully aware that his best position is CB but when we don't have a fit full back available he should definitely be the one playing there. You also realise Callum Moore has played full back fewer times than whyte has and today it showed when Whyte was having to cover Moore at LB before Moore was pushed into midfield. -

The biggest problem going forward continues to be the lack of width, for all our fight in the second half it won't go too far if we persist with no option on the wings and having boys getting in each others way in the middle of the pitch. Either the full backs push right up which is probably too risky right now or we start having a least one of the wingers staying wide and not marking themselves out the game. for example Paterson came on and looked really dangerous but if he comes inside the pitch someone has to go out on his wing for the width -

He came on and broke up the play well but it became obvious that he should of been playing LB today like he's done plenty of times before. Moore was desperately needed in the midfield, think we learned that he can't play in a back four. -

you won 5-0 yet Matty scores a penalty and that's what's important for you to speak about? -

It's ridiculous but it's what's working right now and they know they can play the referee by doing it. Our players on the other hand are far too meek and naive when it comes to second balls and being competitive in midfield right now, we're consistently getting overrun. -

Having this extra week to get ready for the Spartans game leaves zero excuses for ray if we don't put a performance on, And I don't mean playing good for half and hour and scoring one goal because that's not cutting it any more. -

From what I saw it's not ruled out that he comes back if the injury isn't too big. -

Think that was the game where McCluskey played like prime neymar too. -

If the only time you're happy as a supporter is when you win something then I'm sorry to break the news that we're not Celtic or rangers. Winning games and watching entertaining football is more than enough for me, promotions or league titles are the bonus. -

Wow that really puts in to perspective our lack of goals for quite a while now. -

Well That interview was pretty unenthusiastic, still sounding the same and half lost for ideas. Im contemplating starting a game of "rays excuse for not winning bingo". -

People are making out he's the main reason why we're not winning which is mad when scoring and creating goals is the problem. As bad as our football has been, defensively we've been relatively okay on the whole apart from the half an hour at Dumbarton. -

9th is definitely not the target, as bad as we've started there's 3 teams that have been worse below us. Not to mention all it would take is two wins and we'll be back in the hunt. -

The people who go out the way to bash him every single chance are the same ones who didn't give credit to him for scoring 9 league goals the season before last. -

Admittedly Munro has been off the boil for a long time now and shouldn't be captain or playing but he's still not" one of the worst defenders in this league" that people keep claiming. the midfield need to get on the ball and stop forcing him to punt it which would massively help. -

What are you comparing us against? You realise this is league 2 football and not premiership right? Yes we're not playing well but that doesn't mean they're bad players in general. individual player ability goes out the window when your manager is working against you and making you do stuff that isn't working. -

Almost Everyone associated with league 2 clubs before the season kicked off were in agreement that we had a better squad than they two did yet they have 11 points and we have 3 so that proves that it's not about how good your squad is it's how they're setting up and what the manager is getting out of them. -

Those claiming our squad isn't good should look and see that stranraer and bonnyriggs squad have managed 11 points each, Completely killing your argument that the players are to blame. -

The game mentality and tactics aren't up to scratch right now and that's on ray. Unless he goes against his past record of being overly cautious and stubborn to makes big changes things will stay like this.
