The support were scunnered with Alexander's management of the team, the dreadful performances and poor form which culminated in one of our most humiliating results in our history. You'd be hard pushed to find any support of any top flight club that would have reacted any differently. And this is the team that Alexander was largely responsible for building and deemed acceptable to go into this season with the additions of Josh Morris, Paul McGinn and Blair Spittal so it's understandable that he gets some of the blame for what's happened this season.

I agree with what David says above about changing the manager now being chaotic. Like it or not I think we need to stick with Hammell and back him this month in the transfer window and hope for the best really because that's all we can do. The manager situation over the summer and at the beginning of the season was absolutely shambolic as Alexander was never getting sacked in May having delivered Europe, but it was painfully obvious we were only heading one way. It did nothing but paper over huge cracks and he and we were found out big time with the Sligo games. The seeds for all of this chaos and the situation we now find ourselves in were planted at the very same ground we played at today back last April. Had we lost that day Alexander goes in the summer and our entire approach to this season would be completely different.

Only the fact that he is a club legend and so popular with the support is what is keeping the ‘boo-boys’ off Stevie Hammell’s back right now. If Alexander was still in charge he would get far less leeway. Of course this mess is not in any way all down to SH but he has a big, big month ahead of him and things need to improve because this has all the hallmarks of a team heading for relegation. The fine margins are what is going to cost us come the summer. We should have beaten Dundee Utd at home, only got a draw. We should have taken at least a point from Hearts at Tynecastle but lost, should have beaten Killie at home, threw 2 pts away. Should have beaten Livingston today, only drew. Our inability to defend at one end and/or score goals at the other has played a part in all of those results going against us and things need to start picking up asap.

He’s got to score that, no defending a miss like that. That said he is still by far and away our best and only serious goal threat and if we lose him for any period to injury then we might as well start looking forward to Friday night games on BBC Scotland next season.

Well the plus point is we didn’t get beat but we should have won that imo and other results now see us joint second bottom. Next Sunday against Hibs is now must win, no ifs and not buts, it’s must win.

He’s priceless for us is KvV because he’s the only one we can rely on to score goals and there is is yet again.

Just basic, basic stuff every single week.

Kelly saves again!!!

FFS. Absolutely nothing going for us just now.

This has all the makings of a hard slog and an utter shitfest but if we are to avoid relegation then games like these are the types we need to win or at the very least not lose.

KvV back in from the start, Shields starts again.

Yeah to be honest I’m not saying that we should sign Leigh Griffiths now, more that if there was a situation where he was fit enough to play and available to us then his off-field baggage shouldn’t be a deal breaker to us as a club.

Considering we as a club have made a big effort to show support for mental health awareness up to and including bringing out a new strip especially dedicated to helping charities which support it, then giving a chance to a player who has had his own ‘demons’ perhaps should see him fit into our image.

He wouldn’t have offered us any less than Moult has.

Max Johnston back after being recalled from his loan. Glad to hear it.

Happy New Year to ‘Well fans everywhere.

That and having played for us previously.

Everyone will have their own view on this based on age/when they started supporting the club. For me in my time it’s Tommy Coyne. A brilliant forward and an absolute class act of a player and we’ve never had anyone like that since.

Game rescheduled for Wednesday 15th February.

A draw wouldn’t be a disaster but we really need wins if we want to get ourselves away from the lower reaches of the table.

Can’t see us winning here either, a draw is the best we’ll get.

Amen! I am 100% convinced that a lot of this “punching above our weight” mindset stems from Alan Burrows.

For all the flak Kelly has taken this scoreline would be a lot worse tonight if it wasn’t for him.

We’ve not had any real leaders since Hartley, Tait and to an extent Gallagher left. There’s not one player at the club who you would look at as being the obvious captain.

I wish we had a player as shite as him.
