Hard to give it to anyone based on a 45 minute performance but went for Lowry.

Its gonna be a long week!

Ultimately, there is no way the Executive Board are emptying Alfred this early. They have backed him heavily and have to give him time to try and get it right. If we get into December and are cut adrift at the bottom then there is a conversation to be had before tge January window. These are his players and he/they will be given every opportunity to turn it around. Apart from anything else, if we get back to having a reputation of showing managers absolutely no patience, it thens becomes difficult to recruit anyone decent in the future. There are clearly huge doubts hanging over him right now, but I dont think its a total lost cause, as there were flickers of hope in that first half today. Individual errors are absolutely killing us right now. The players have to take some responsibility for that. But Alfred also has to provide tge best platform for them to be able to play their football. Its gonna be a long week......

Yup i agree pal. AJ needs to sort it but the basic errors are down to the players. I try to be positive but do understand and respect concerns from folks

I also thought we were decent in the first half. Not brilliant, but decent enough with something to build on. Second half, we weathered a spirited start from Killie, took the lead then, BOOM! Capitulation. SOD's was way off it and badly to blame for the 2 goals. But he wasn't alone. I thought Moorman looked decent at the start of the season, but has fell away badly(as have quite a few others.) I still don't think we should be talking of sacking the manager, but we need to see something, anything in the next 3 games, that shows there is some spark in the team.

I actually thought that we played pretty well for the majority of the first half. The sucidal start apart, we got in their faces, won the ball high, played some nice football and created a good few chances. Felt like we were in control of the game at that point and could have been a couple of goals in the clear. The second half capitulation though, wow! Kilmarnock didnt even have to do anything special either. A few long balls over the top, 2 more gifts and we were done. How the same group of players can put in such markedly different levels of performance in the same game, is absolutely wild. We are now in deep shit and Im not sure the manager looks like he knows how to get us out of it. Starting to fear the worst......

Alfred needs to grow a pair and also not put round pegs in square holes. Desperate for him to turn it round

Indeed. Folk laughed when pressley got job but he gets tune out of them

And not driving so its Grizzly Potter and the Goblet Of Tennents!! 🤣

Maybe over the remainder of the season

More than likely. Either that or/with David Clarkson involved. Whoever it is who replaces AJ when, not if, the time comes then it will be someone already employed at the club.

As much as I am Unsure of the manager, the players need to step up. Far too many are half arseing it. I just watched Dundee run through brick walls tonight. We need the same. Far too many of them are chucking it and not giving 100%

A good manager wouldn’t allow it and would help them progress.

What i would say bud is if Maswanhise and Longelo aren't interested then that's poor from them. Spitting dummy out cos haven't moved but only way they get a move is by doing it on the pitch. Aye its frustrating times

I think the majority of us are half full, but in all honesty we are getting worse every game and playing guys out of position is a gift for rank average opposition, Jens was an event many of won’t see again but Alfred is honestly like watching Hamnells shite that was served up, just hope Kyrk reads in hear and is investigating plan B

Not all bad today. I am at a fancy dress charity quiz night and our team won. I went as Harry Potter so only time today someone wearing a well scarf was celebrating!! 🤣🤣 Heid up folks. We will turn this round

Would certainly give Irons a problem to deal with......

Is that another version of Palmer-Houlden? 🤣🤣

Cheers pal. I am keeping that glass half full but admittedly an amount spilled out it today

Always worries me when you get optimistic about our chances.....if we defend like we did today, that'll be a decent result.

Possibly yes, but my guess it will be at least December or January Providing of course results keep ending in defeats

The reduced home attendances will see it happen.

I think you’re spot on . Within the next 5-7 games Alfred will have reached a similar amount of games time where the tenure ended for Steve Hammel Jim Gannon Hari Kampman id love to be wrong but there’s a lot of similarities to their tenure

I don’t think jens recreates the season he had last if he stays with us ( he still has a good season but not last years level ) good managers move at the right time 1 of the issue for me is this data model chat…. hearts for example have lost what we’ve lost ( if not better ) & managed to use the data model to replace well we’ve lost players & recruited without any obvious plan How have we got it so right last year & so wrong this year?
