Case and point. Look at that at Johnstone side. They are a similar size of club/ slightly smaller, with a relatively similar playing budget. They have a solid spine, experienced pros mixed with good young players. Miles ahead of us 

But you could see this coming last year, everyone still quotes but we finished 3rd, but anyone who actually went to all the games can remember it was a hard watch, the team of last season was still lacking a good spine and heart .

The spine needed strengthening in the last transfer window and it never happened. On top of that the injury list is crazy which obviously has another huge impact. With the first 11 and two or three decent signings we would have been absolutely fine despite what a few think, but what we have is the perfect storm of new signings that are also injured or not fit enough and just about all our key players out.

Reminds me of the end of Barraclough's reign. Alexanders body language for me already giving the impression of "I really dunno what to do here or how to change this"
It all looks like the situation you have when a manager is coming to the end of his reign and not just in the door No real fight from the players, little shape or being able to play as a unit. Strikers that can't score that many goals and defenders that can't defend. A team creating very little.

I think we are the team in the league showing the least fight and that could only result in one thing.

Miles ahead of us , dont talk shite, they had 2 more points before today, same shit form as us, they are in a cup final basically  because the ugly sisters fucked it up, so  baring in mind we have 18 players on the injury list or unavailable through suspension, soo with a full list of first choice players for GA to pick they are no better than us, today excepted of course

Question is, do we keep Alexander if we go down?

We were on a hiding to nothing with the injuries today but sticking with 433 was just ludicrous! You would’ve thought we might have at least tried to make ourselves hard to beat. Apparently not...

Was Alexander behind the January signings? If so would you trust him with a rebuild? Where did we find clown shoes Chapman? Was it via the same system that identified the January signings?

The whole squad is rotten to the core and many of us detected a whiff of this months ago and were dismissed. We’ve got 1 or 2 max who give a shit and the rest of them are a disgrace to the profession.

Unless many of these mysteries injuries clear up from Wednesday onwards this team is taking us down as there’s barely a player among them you’d want in the trenches. Many look like they’ve given up the ghost already. And the manager too possibly?

Pretty much it, I’m pretty sure they don’t have 18 players out, turn it around and they would be in just as much trouble as us. It’s easy for people to just throw one line after another of abuse but even before kick off it was obvious we were in big trouble.

It's completely self inflicted where we find ourselves,there wasn't a big rebuilding job needing done for once over the summer,we needed maybe 4 players of a standard that could have pushed us on and that's before we even sold turnbull,the club could have been in a really good place but yet we made a total cunt of it by bringing in guys that aren't good enough and then to make it worse we go and bring more players in during january that aren't any better than the shite signed in the summer,you really couldn't make it.two disastrous transfer windows and a change in manager,if we can manage to stay up this season we will have done really well.
