I was looking forward to the Hamilton match next week. Not now. I`m going to knockhill instead.
For a straight red Wanyama is out for two, is he not?
I see nil points in next week`s two games, leaving us with 5 points to catch Hamilton with 4 games to go.
Tough ask for any manager.

I never bought in to all this OTT optimism, but I expected some sort of reaction from our players .
Got a reaction right enough , but the opposite of what I hoped for .

Not at all.
I`m probably known as one of the most positive posters on here. To the point that I believe I irritate the doomsday mongers.
I realised a few games ago we were not going to head up the table, despite my previous assertions, unless something changed.
It changed, I hoped again.
Shipwrecked. The talisman gets sent off, and apparently needs some fitness training before being as effective as expected.
So. Realistically. We can`t score, so 9th is now what I expect

Change of ownership/management mid season, a crazy roll of the dice in bringing in 8 players in January to further confuse/undermine an underperforming squad.
Absolute shambles.
Now we have a celebrity manager bringing in old pals/duds.
We will pick up another couple of points in the last six games, Airdrie will easily overtake us.

Wait a minute here. We`ve got someone who has said a number of times that things have gone against us because the team haven`t been supported enough. Yet here we are with a huge game next weekend, when that weekend a rare one when that person has the time available to go to a game and the price is low enough. Until today that person was going to go, but after one loss they`ve given up and can no longer be arsed spending that leisure time supporting their team.
It`s your choice what you do with any spare time or money you might have, but you can`t have it both ways. If you`re going to give up on your team rather that use a rare chance to support them where it actually matters, in the ground, you really have no right to attack other people for not showing enough support or positivity.

I don`t get to any matches nowadays because my leisure time isn`t really leisure time.
I care for jnr on Saturdays and try to get some work done on my dilapidated house. Jnr loves Knockhill, and it gives him a rare day out. He wanted me to go to the match next week, though, because he saw me getting excited at the recent news.
So ordinarily, I would be there for such an important match, and may still be there now you`ve twanged a guilt string.

Started the game not bad, I saw on Twitter we had less shots in that game than any game this season but it certainly felt we got more entries into the box and a couple flashed across goal but toothless once again. Our weekly sh1te goal to lose came and showed nothing when Young went off.
Second half we came back into it and then Bene done what he did, im gutted to see the way things are going for him with some fans for his form and what he`s accused of but ultimately if found guilty f*ck him. Huffed and puffed the rest.
Wanyama cannot play for us again. The game has changed you MUST be able to run no matter the level.
Not a single player in that squad is a championship footballer apart from Mullen. I`ve been to almost every game this season and bar Partick they haven`t shown any different and all of them should look at another career in the summer and go part time.
Not to go on about the Germans again but I`m sure they said the target for the end of the season was 40 points?? What a f*cking laugh they were. Lennon deserves every penny if he keeps this lot up.

I tend to agree with angus w. Airdrie at least scoring goals and I`m not sure we will until the end of the season. It has been one of the poorest seasons I can remember in 50 plus years of supporting the Pars. I will keep on supporting them though cause its a funny old game and things can change unexpectedly and quickly. But we really need to score some goals even if its in a defeat just to prove to ourselves that we can still do it because I think some of the players have stopped thinking that they can,

The second goal, Benedictus should have got arrested for that, never mind his current legal troubles. You travel all the way to Ayr, hoping there is at least they have a go. 2 shots off target. Zero in the second half. The squad is rotten from front to back. IF, we stay up. You’re lucky if I would want to keep about 3 of them. What could be said to them at full time that’s not already been said??. We are the worst team in that division, and unfortunately for us, that’s where we are at!!

It`s just that your posts sometimes grate a bit as it often feels like you`re having a go at folk with little justification and without really understanding the things they`re on about. So it did irritate me a wee bit when I read that post as it seemed like a bit of double standards. If you weren`t normally so combative I wouldn`t even have noticed it.
Life can be hard going sometimes and I wish you no ill. And it would be good if we could all keep in mind that folk we might be arguing with might not be on top form and try to show a little kindness, even if we disagree.

I wasn`t expecting an overnight transformation but I was hoping that NL would have instilled some confidence into the team and that we would have a discernible game plan with some link between defence, midfield and attack. Disappointingly, none of these was evident. Hopefully he`ll have learned more from this game than from a week`s training and can knock them into better shape for Wednesday.
Wanyama looked like a guy who had come out of retirement to take part in a testimonial game. If he`s been training with Barnet he must have been hiding.
I`m not giving up on 8th place. Hamilton aren`t exactly flying and I`d still rather be in our situation than Airdrie`s.

Maybe we`re now being slightly too negative after the over the top euphoria of last week. There was never going to be a quick fix to our situation and it doesn`t do our present incumbents any good to suggest they will all be gone next season. They have to dig us out of the hole we`re in because there`s no-one else. The game went against us due to a shocking referee decision. Shortly after their right back fell in his own box under pressure from McCann and got a free kick, our right back did the same but no free kick was awarded and they scored. The referee was awful, he gave us very little and gave Ayr a foul every time they fell over.
The upside today was Raith`s 3nil victory. Hamilton aren`t doing any better than us. A good result against Livingston on Wednesday is not impossible. No point in throwing the towel in yet. We still have the chance of 8th place.

I`m wrestling with that comment a bit.
I think you are saying I should appreciate that other folk have issues that may affect what they post, and you don`t think I take that into consideration when I criticise other posters.
Well, if so, you would be spot on, and I have no doubt our Christ would appreciate that.
I don`t think I have been overly critical of anyone for a very long time.
If I think someone is going over the top in their criticism of players or staff, who can not reply in defence, I will say something. I don`t think I`m too harsh. Maybe you can provide an example to the contrary.
Lately, I have questioned the wisdom of posting about getting rid of several players when we need them to perform.
I don`t think that is overly critical. it just makes sense.
Take a read at what has been posted about several players and tell me if you are surprised they don`t appear to care.
If they aren`t going to be wanted, where do they find the motivation.

And if we create chances, we need players who can score.
And if we take the lead, we need players who can defend.
Therein lies 3 obvious problems.
Do you think I'm the man?
A) Yes, B) A or C) B

The current league positions are all but certain who will be in the top 5 and bottom 3. There is more chance of change in the bottom 3 positions than the top 5 positions. Today we were overhauled by avery average looking outfit, but they score goals. It is difficult to see where we can improve when we cannot even get a ball on target, look at the match stats, they reflect how poor we really are. There is no messiah in Lennon although he vastly improved our overall style of play but not our ability to score. Wanyama was an embarrassment, totally unfit to play in a match although he showed signs of being very capable in his 20 minute stint. Live in fear if we cannot beat Hamilton or draw with Hamilton as that will spur Airdrieonians to lift their game against us at EEP. As for looming playoff, always remember we have never won through in these and this squad will collapse under pressure to achieve. A lot of current faces know they will be moving on in a few weeks time.

If Lennon has been doing his homework and watching our previous games and watching our opponents then what was with the starting 11. Joe Chalmers & Oakley Booth should be on the bench at the very most. Wanyama should never pull on a Pars shirt again. He is slower than a week in jail. Lennon knew he wasn’t match fit but threw him in and look what happened. Bene pretty much scoring an OG then Victor thinking he was playing rugby cost us big time. At 1-0 there was a chance we could have got back in the game. Young getting injured so early took any momentum we had. Replacing him with Yeboah was like being down to 10 men even 9 with Oakley Booth being anonymous. We really need to be playing our best players and going back to basics. No threat upfront, Young out for the season I’ve heard. Kane struggles with fitness and getting 90 minutes out of him. Why no try young Andy Tod upfront?

I wasn`t expecting an overnight transformation but I was hoping that NL would have instilled some confidence into the team and that we would have a discernible game plan with some link between defence, midfield and attack. Disappointingly, none of these was evident. Hopefully he`ll have learned more from this game than from a week`s training and can knock them into better shape for Wednesday.
Wanyama looked like a guy who had come out of retirement to take part in a testimonial game. If he`s been training with Barnet he must have been hiding.
I`m not giving up on 8th place. Hamilton aren`t exactly flying and I`d still rather be in our situation than Airdrie`s.
What not scoring goals and shipping loads? At least Airdrie score goals. Best we can hope for is 0-0.

In our last 3 games we’ve had 3 shots on target. All in the Raith game and I wouldn’t even count them as shots tbh.
We create absolutely nothing at all and when we add in the horrendous defending what chance do we have.
In professional football we have an “experienced” centre halve passing it across his 18 yard box which was always a basic rule of what not to do.
The only positive for yesterday was the fact Raith beat Hamilton.
I’ve said on numerous posts that realistically I give ourself no chance on Wednesday, although for the 31st league game this season I hope I’m proved wrong.
It’s all about Hamilton next Saturday, that is our biggest game this season.

‘Lately, I have questioned the wisdom of posting about getting rid of several players when we need them to perform.
I don`t think that is overly critical. it just makes sense.
Take a read at what has been posted about several players and tell me if you are surprised they don`t appear to care.
If they aren`t going to be wanted, where do they find the motivation.”
…This is a good point by PARrot.
These players need motivation & not criticism they are all we’ve got.

Lennon needs to find a way. Play the ugliest football in the world, scrap for it but find a way to win. I’m sure he’s trying.

So just because folk are posting things about the performances( which lets be completely honest have been embarrassing at times) you just give up and don`t apply effort? If that is the attitude of some of this lot more reason to get rid of them. If they can`t handle criticism when they are 9th and either lack the effort or ability to get themselves out of it they shouldn`t be in a pars shirt. As big Norrie said "if you don`t want to wear the jersey stay in the dressing room".
I don`t think it`s an attitude problem personally I think most of them just don`t have the ability at this level.

I’m still scratching my head as to why he signed Wanyamma to try to dig us out of a hole when he is clearly overweight and unfit! That’s a big negative start for me. Why not bring someone who if fit and can hit the ground running! Was this all a PR stunt that backfired!?
Not having a settled 11 is an issue but there is some obvious things that are so apparent. Bene lost it weeks ago, Chalmers is not a left back, Yeboah is not good enough. Still no leader on the Park. At least Hamilton has fight even if he is not at his best at the moment.
Also Steven’s and Fogarty are good players and should get a start.
Where are Ngweny and KRT, injured? Sam Young on loan? Young and Fogarty paired up well together in defence imo and Young was improving greatly and we get rid of him - baffling!!
Our subs bench looked grim on Saturday. Has Clay got anything to contribute, maybe some grit in midfield!
We seem to get worse every week! If Airdrie win midweek and we don’t then I will be worried! We still have to play them and we can’t beat anyone so that would put them level on points with us.

Airdrie and Hamilton are creating chances and scoring goals which is the big worry, add that to the fact we aren’t we need to win our game against Hamilton and Airdrie we just have to otherwise we’ll finish 10th.
QP away is also a winnable game, especially if we got there on the back of a win against Hamilton.

I disagree. While we`re crap, so are Hamilton. Expectations were raised with Lennon coming in but the fact is it`s still the same players. Having a first game against the team sitting second was never going to be easy.
IF we stay up, I`d hope for a complete rebuild but not one involving signing a load of unknown kids. We need a mix of experience and youth. While those unlikely to receive new contracts might down tools, I think they need to remember their future employers will be watching so they need to put on a show unless they want to be playing part time.

If you adopt the worst case scenario for every match we`re bound to be doomed. It`s not exactly rocket science.

Yeah of those staying otoo and Kane the only ones you would maybe keep, otoo has been very poor this season and Kane is expensive when you consider he barely players 50% of the available minutes.
I suspect if we stayed up and the owners back the manager none of them are making the first eleven next year.

At what point does Kane lose the tag of being `injury prone`? Since he came on for the last half hour against Morton he has played three complete 90 minutes against Falkirk, Raith and Ayr, which include two artificial surfaces. As I`ve said before, he certainly doesn`t play like a guy who thinks he`s injury prone. He never shirks a challenge.

You are missing my point Eck. You asked at what stage a player that already has the label would lose it. IMHO it is a lot more than 3 games and being consistently available for 18 or so games would be a decent measure I`d say. If he were being subbed for the later stages of a few those I wouldn`t complain. After all he is a combative player later on in his career so will most likely pick up knocks.

Kane`s injury proneness was assumed to relate to his calves. After the Morton game Tidser said he`d persuaded him to take part because a medical report had been favourable. It gave the impression that it was maybe partially a mental problem. The physical way Kane plays exposes him to the possibility of injury but, if he picked up a fracture or ligament injury, say, I don`t think that would necessarily mean he was `injury prone`. It`s another one of these cliches loved by commentators and fans.

It`s sad that a lot of players haven`t learned from him, McCann would benefit hugely from working and watching him, I don`t want to criticise him, and it`s probably not his fault, but he has not picked anything up from 5 years ago, still just runs-i feel more intensive coaching with him would be a good last chance solution for him.
Kane is physical, puts his body on the line, but he is no horse, he`s a cute player, another one I like whose overlooked is Curtis Main!

Neil’s, McCann was also coached by the likes of Crawford and played in squads with many other strikers over the 6 seasons and hasn’t picked up anything to improve his game. Todorov could have helped him with competing in the air and positioning in the box etc but nope. Not learned a thing from wingers either but we’ve decided to try and play him there. Just not got a football brain.
He’s 24 in 2 months, it might be time to accept what all the evidence is telling us, much better players have left without the fans calling for them to be given more time etc.
Agree on Kane, nobody minds him coming off after 70mins every game but He’s just missed too many games and it’s not been one knock it’s a series of them.
