I’d like to see Hammy beside Bene and Otoo in midfield.
Ewan has the energy to drive forward more than Chris

Not a fan at all, especially with Otoo playing at the back. Crazy to think we have two centre backs on the bench and only one on the park!

Hoping that Todd is playing centrally and that we create some chances but not looking forward to today.

Not for me. He’s not done enough. Loses the ball far too easily and not enough end product yet

Judging by the warm-up, he will be in the centre of defence along with Bene.

I know the usual suspects will say I`m "picking on" him but Chalmers really is poor, isn`t he. Great chance within 4 minutes - loads of time to get into the box and shoot, but didn`t. If he`s not confident about then that`s poor for a pro footballer. But to then play such a terrible pass to Ngwenya when a simple ball in front of him would lead to a great chance. Then a silly booking for hauling a boy down rugby style that he somehow got away with.

Just to prove I`m not just anti-Chalmers, McCann is also having a shocker! He did set up the best chance of the match, just unfortunately it was at the wrong end.

Ritchie-Hosler and Ngwenya started off well but we`ve let them back into it now. Worrying.

Raymie you could argue that’s been the case for quite a lot of our forward thinking players who haven’t been dropped.

Not sure what it is with dapo, does he feel better than this level? Refuses the option to pass to a teammate way too often.

As i post we have a great chance and miss it , sorry but that wasn`t a good save it was a bad miss , the net should have been bust there

Agree he`s got a lot to learn. What he gives you though is something unexpected. Too much of our play is in front of the opposition defenders, where he runs at them and commits them.

Decent start to the half but it was a decent start to the first half too. Ritchie-Hosler has to score though. An even bigger sitter than the Hamilton one a couple of weeks back.

Dapo on for Kane to some loud boos. Can only presume Kane isn`t fully fit as I`m sure most were expecting McCann to come off. Don`t know if that`s affecting us on the park but Airdrie have weathered the storm and are coming back into it.

I get what u mean but there simply alot of footballers who do not shoot when they have a chance, for example, glen kamara, who many leeds fans who thought he was brilliant other than the fact he would simply not shoot, doesnt mean they are a bad player tho, i do get wjat u mean tho pal

Only 31 posts in a big 6 pointer and about 4 since we scored (mainly moaning about folk moaning) shows how disinterested a lot of people are becoming?

Im not there today but reportedly McPake seen cupping his ears in defiance to the fans after McCann scored?

Great to get the win! It was a very important 3 points especially with Morton grabbing a late winner. We seriously have to improve if we’re going to climb the table though. Two poor teams today who failed many times when the basics but the frustrating thing is we’ve seen how good we can be after the Raith and Livi games. We have a tough game next week but it’s against a team who are leaking goals so we need to learn to be more clinical and punish mistakes more often!

The first goal is such a big deal in this division...especially when you can only score one.

Well done Lewis McCann. I`m beginning to question how much value KRH offers. He rarely goes past a player and often picks the wrong pass.

It`s a tiny bit of a worry when your best distribution channel is your goalie!

I agree with Berkey actually.
Goal aside McCann was like a headless chicken most of the game.
I’ll take the three points though as they had a great shout for a penalty in the second half.

Well done to the players, effort was there as usual.

Actually think comrie is going unnoticed for having a pretty good season, Ngwenya surprisingly coming good as well.

That said we are absolutely humming, our attacking play is either not worked on enough or terribly coached. Mcpake was rightfully booed for the Kane sub as Mcann was hopeless and done his absolute best to miss his goal.

A massive win, not for Mcpake but for keeping us up. It will be interesting to hear his interview.

Hard fought victory today. Airdrie I felt after an burst early on came for a point. We were the better team again today. I thought the Kane substitution was the right one. Lewis McCann was getting pushed and pulled and closed down by two defenders so Airdrie made it hard for him. He looks much better running through the middle going at goal. He can be frustrating, but I believe he is developing into a goalscorer. A little but more anticipation I think to be in the right place at the right time. I thought KRH played quite well today. He has added the defensive role to his game.

Defensively today we were solid, a couple of jittery moments but overall we managed the game out. I`d like to see Joe Chalmers having a go when he gets into positions. He is a good passer of the ball so should be able to test the keeper with a well placed shot.

Solid performance and deserved victory .

Not sure on the timeline for the possible new owners and investment but if it’s int eh next 2 months this team could look quite different and certainly a different management team.

You can see with clay now being dropped for chalmers and Dapo dropped that there is no way we should give mcpake anymore money to bring players in.

Mcpake doing his bit today to make absolutely certain of the payoff too if he was actually antagonising the fans who are watching this dross by cupping his ear. Pretty much no one wants him at the club and a performance like today’s doesn’t really change that.

Morton winning means we had to win, only way we’re climbing the table is to win 2 league games in a row, that’s likely going to take an away win and we haven’t managed that so far. Airdrie look a good bet to mean we’re in little threat of auto relegation.

Not a lot of football played today from both sides, a much needed ground out win.

We have to now take this chance & push on into the group immediately above us.

Well played Tobi for winding up the Airdrie support.

Now if he just go do that a lot more often he’ll be an asset for something other than just his workrate.


Aw give it a rest, what does anyone gain out of being that pessimistic


I agree with Berkey actually.
Goal aside McCann was like a headless chicken most of the game.
I’ll take the three points though as they had a great shout for a penalty in the second half.


He had a shocker in the first half.

He done well to put himself in place to mis-kick his goal in - aye it was a mistake-kick.

He also put a couple of good balls into the box, one of which KRH should have buried.

I’d say extremely poor first half.

Decent enough second half but still large room for improvement but just the fact he scored folk will come in here and talk like he’s Dunfermline Athletics messiah 🤷🏻‍♂️

I fully expect him to be asked about said cupping of ears in his post match interview…………….. maybe not. Would make for a refreshing change instead of the usual soft questions

Well done to the players, effort was there as usual.

Actually think comrie is going unnoticed for having a pretty good season, Ngwenya surprisingly coming good as well.

That said we are absolutely humming, our attacking play is either not worked on enough or terribly coached. Mcpake was rightfully booed for the Kane sub as Mcann was hopeless and done his absolute best to miss his goal.

A massive win, not for Mcpake but for keeping us up. It will be interesting to hear his interview.


I felt that today was one of McCann`s poorer games but he is a worker and did very well for the goal.

Also thought Comrie had a very good game. My mom.


Your mum? I don’t think this is the place to talk about her?

I’m glad we got the 3 points but all in all that was absolutely brutal.

Tobi, Comrie, Bene, Otoo & Hamilton played well defensively.

It’s hard to give pass marks to anyone else.

Airdrie were even worse than us but we were awful. I think Airdrie are operating at the same level as Alloa thankfully.

I don’t know about McPake cupping his ears at the fans but if he did he’s got absolutely no reason too. The evidence is on the pitch and he’s heading up relegation contenders

Personally I think we are a better team this season than last. It`s maybe taken time to get going, but at least we are starting to pick up points. We have a good squad so losing an individual player to injury will not hurt us as it did last season.We are physically stronger which will be important over the next quarter of the season.

3 points from 6th with a better goal difference than 3 above us.
McPake is safe so long as we are in touch with this group, or we get new owners who can spend.

After the abuse he and McCann have had on here, surely you can take a cupped ear.

If not, maybe they can get a supply of dummies in the club shop.

Are you for real, a manager gets some stick on a fans forum so is therefore allowed to cup his ears to fans that pay his wages , the football his teams plays for 3 years is murder , with 10 minutes to go we waste time and hang on to a 1-0 win against the worst team in the league, you sir are easily impressed.

My completely speculative and uninformed guess is that he`s taken some poison from behind him in the main stand for the Kane sub, probably partly directed at McCann and then not long after, McCann scores and in the heat of the moment he reacts. Probably targeted at one or two individuals.

If we were second in the league having just pumped Airdrie 3-0 he’d have a point but we’re no.

We’re second bottom only cos Airdrie are miles off the pace. We’re literally in a relegation scrap and just sat and watched the only player who looked like doing anything being subbed off. McCann with a lucky mistake scores 🤷🏻‍♂️

James McPake doesn’t deserve to be Dunfermline manager anymore.

He sorted the team out brilliantly for the League 1 campaign, he dealt with the injuries for last season as well as anyone but this seasons a joke. I’d still like him to prove us wrong but the last thing he should do is cup his ears at the fans

I have no idea why he did it, if he did. He should maybe have shown more humility though given that he is only in a job because we are both not well off and owners are looking to sell up.

No it`s not a good look but neither is being a grown adult and dishing out dogs abuse to your own team. Whatever though. Personally it`s about ten thousand down the list of things to worry about.

Important 3 points and the fans moaning because the manager gave them a cupped ear - dry yer eyes and enjoy the win.

Guessing some would prefer the Airdire manager in charge …

Did anyone else hear the post-match interview with the Pars` fan on Radio Scotland? During it Allan Preston, who is an agent of course, confirmed that McPake missed out on a few of his prime targets in the transfer window because of the length of process required to approve a signing.

McPake said in his post-match interview that his substitution of Kane was precautionary based on how he had reacted to the protocols in training since his concussion two weeks ago. By the way, the post-match interview on COWS isn`t a club one, it`s with media representatives so I imagine they can ask what they like. I don`t think anyone mentioned him `cupping his ear`.

Probably cheesed off with some fans in the Norrie booing at half time. Doubt if real supporters would do that. Supporters are meant to support, it`s in the name.

A rocket was clearly put up McCanns @rse at half time, he had a much better 2nd half, and his finish was outstanding.

1st half was woeful, very few got passmarks beyond the back line. All over the place, baffling decision making, folk making runs to the wrong places, not making runs when they should be, sh*te passing (when the ball was actually on the ground). Thankfully a good talking to sorted most of that out, but it was still a huff and puff to get the 3 points, when we really should be comfortable at home.

Our goal between now and January is just keep up with the 2 or 3 ahead of us and hope our potential new owners fire in enough cash to get quality in.

Of the recent games, I think we have improved. The results have been improving as well. Games we would have normally lost we have drawn, with wins now starting to come along. Missing out on transfer targets is part of the game and I firmly believe the squad we have is capable of challenging near the top. We are where we are so it`s about looking ahead not back. The right approach today would have been to clap Kane off and clap Dapo on. We need to lift morale and get behind every player who pulls the jersey on in my view. Everyone wants success for the club there is no lack of effort. The fans can make the difference at home. The support has been very quiet over the last few weeks that negates alot of the advantage you msy have.

McPake was getting it tight when he took Kane off. However, I guess he knows more about the Kane situation with fitness, etc, than those of us in the NW.
I have heard a lot of the abuse that gets aimed at him and Cook, amongst others, so, in perspective, I have no issue with an ear cupping.

Any chance we could try to avoid being needlessly aggressive and unpleasant towards each other for a bit? I know the football has been grim recently which makes this stuff more likely but I`m finding it really offputting. Especially when it`s after a win.

Anyway, dreadful game but a great result. Not really much in the game but the breaks went more in our favour today while recently, last week in particular, they`ve tended to go against us.

After getting a lead we weren`t really in much danger. Not sure on the big penalty shout shortly after the goal, looked like it could have been given but I didn`t have a great angle. After that big scare we got through it OK, though the `slow it down` stuff wasn`t especially effective. Escpecialy the one where we had a free kick in a decent position, played it short and passed it straight out of the park for a shy. Benedictus and Comrie both had good games at the back, McCann was much better in the second half than the first.

Happy with any win just now, and we could do with a few more tight games in the weks to come.
