Absolutely true. It's chronic, but it's also the reason why we're still not anywhere near adrift and could be what saves us again. Our 5th place finish under Alexander proved the level of ineptitude in this league. 5 months of pitiful results and we still couldn't be shifted from the top 6.

Moult's dried up, no goals in 6.

We need to look after our own business, but the only forward who scored in the Premiership today was Shankland. We are far from alone.

Anything's a possibility, but past experience and the laws of probability would suggest it'll end before then. Whatever else this team is, it's not much worse than most of its opponents, nor has it given up. If you want rid of Kettlewell to get us winning again, that's understandable, but there's absolutely no guarantee who or what will follow. He walks and is replaced by Frail, Foster or Clarkson - does anyone fancy that? And if not them, who? Ian Murray would be the obvious candidate, but why the hell would he take the job at this time? Whatever side of the fence we're on with this, it's all guesswork. Hammell's sacking seemed inevitable and necessary to virtually everyone. Despite this run, I don't think a huge majority feel the same way about Kettlewell - yet.

How can anyone know we won't win until February?

No. Enlighten me.

Instead of bottom. Have you worked out what Gretna have to do with this yet?

Or Calvary, if you ask David.

Livingston just missed a penalty.

Piss off Slattery.

What's happening, I just woke up.

2-1 us.

Not as poor as your stats.

What record is that?

Nothing?

Yeah, a vote of confidence from the board might as well be the manager's eulogy. He's still there, so I can only assume by not sacking him they're backing him, and when they no longer back him, they'll sack him. Sounds like I'm stating the obvious, but without a public statement or any insider knowledge, what else can you go on? If he makes it to the window, I'd expect them to publicly back him with transfer funds. If they decide to pull the trigger at that point, they should be next out the door.

How would the club back him?

Dundee United mucked about with their keepers last season. Replaced their first choice, who lost 11 goals in 2 games, with a guy who lost 12 in the next 2. Then brought in another who lost 4 on his debut and was immediately dropped. Without having the first clue how good Oxborough is, no one can be certain dropping Kelly is a wise move.

Yeah, if the team had jacked it, you wouldn't need to think twice, but they obviously haven't.

Yeah, I'm certainly not defending it and as I said elsewhere, saying we should stick with a manager who has overseen such a horrendous run seems, and may well be, ludicrous. The wrong decision now could well lead to relegation. But what's the wrong decision?

I thought Zdravkoski had a cut of Jamie Dolan about him, appearance wise, at least. No way Dundee Utd are selling Moult in January.

Not nit picking, but it's 2 points. Might need that extra one. As for Queen's Park, the guy was fired by the same people who appointed him 6 months ago. If we think our board are amateurs, you'd think a club with Leeann Dempster as CEO and a Director of Football who came from AZ Alkmaar and just left for Ajax would know what they were doing.

In their position, would you rather have the points or the games?

I wouldn't be against Murray, if and when the time comes but like I said, I'm not sure we'd go for/get him (or similar). One thing's for sure, if we want a currently successful manager, he's gonnae come from a lower level.

Alexander survived a similar run, one win being the difference. P13 W1 D5 L7 We then lost the next 2 games before getting the wins against Ross County & Hearts that got us into Europe. Which didn't work out well for him, or us.
