October proved to be an excellent month for the Pars, with us gaining 10 points from five games. The defeat away to Ross County and the draw at home to Queens Park are the only blemishes in an otherwise fine set of results.
Interestingly, the Pars are currently the form team based on last month`s results. Thistle and Ayr United gained 8 points from five and six games respectively, while Ross County and Arbroath gained 7 points from four.
Our next opponents, top-of-the-league St Johnstone, had a very ordinary month, gaining only 5 points from four games. Could they be ready for a doing at EEP?
Morton and Airdrieonians continue to struggle, with 4 points from four games each, while Queens Park and, surprisingly, the Wee Team each obtained just 3 points from four games last month.
Considering our injury list, this is a significant achievement by the young Pars squad. Although it`s a young team, we have a strength in depth that I don`t think we have ever seen at East End. And you can see from the way they defend from the front line to the back, these guys play with conviction. They have been drilled into it by great coaching.
We should celebrate this turnaround in our fortunes. Not so long ago, Tidser`s tactics brought me to the verge of giving up my support for the Pars. Glad I didn`t. I am very thankful for the contributions of the club`s new owners and the management team, both on and off the park.

Said much the same against the wee team.
It’s a joy going to watch the Pars again, not felt that for a few years. Keep it going everyone!

Good post Oz summed up the present state of affairs at EEP.
On our day I think we can beat anyone in this league. Good times!

Aye it’s a fantastic start to the second quarter of games. Already matched the 9 points accumulated in the first quarter and still 5 games to play out of the 9 in the second. Fingers crossed we can find some consistency, if so I don’t think we’ll be far away come the end of the season. Best feeling I’ve had since Crawford had us in the play offs, feels like a lifetime ago!

Great post Oz - the strength in depth was exemplified by the very strong youth team that dismantled East Fife in the Fife Cup during the week.

It`s been great to see Matty Todd coming in from the cold with a goal and two assists in his last three starts. He also seems to have answered the question of who plays RWB if Kearney isn`t available.
With such a big squad, even allowing for injuries, NL`s doing a great job keeping everyone interested and involved with guys like Todd, Bray and Mehmet all making valuable contributions in recent games.
