Glad you brought up the subject of Tapping . Is he injured or what ? Can't recall him being in the last few squads. I agree if fit he needs to be given a chance to show what he can do now.
We need to get last night's nightmare performance and result out our minds and look forward to our top of the league class this weekend against Hibs
Lyndon Dykes looked lively again last and will probably get a start if Anderson is injured or maybe the gaffer will give Lyle a much needed rest and play him or Rigg upfront with Dobbie . Calum Tapping is kicking his heels on the bench and is desperate for a start .
Skelton has some big decisions to make this weekend IMO . Stick with the team that's been doing so well in the league or freshen things up

Tuesday nights result was so disappointing but we've no other choice but to pick ourselves up , dust ourselves down and we go again .
We haven't become a poor team overnight . Resting a few players this weekend and bringing in fresh legs may be a good idea , only time will tell ........
Queens will be desperate to get that defeat out of their system and what better way than to get a result against Hibernian this weekend . It'll be interesting to see how the players react
And, of course, Hibs will be desperate to get that that shock home defeat to Ayr United out of their system and what better way to do it than get a result against Queen of the South at Palmerston this weekend. It'll be interesting to find out which set of players react the better.
The match preview is back and on the website now
Apologies for the lack of previews for the last two games, the person who normally writes them was ill
Hibs had sold over 1,100 tickets by Thursday night so it's looking like we'll get a 3,000 plus crowd after all ....
Wouldn't like to be standing on the open terrace tomorrow after seeing the weather forecast
Hibs will be lacking their lips hoping we are on a downer. Team has had four days rest up to kick off and I am sure they haven't been doing that much training so should be 'full of beans ' I was concerned that we couldn't really handle another hard midweek game after a hard Saturday and the team certainly looked jaded as Rangers took complete control after our opening second half flurry. Rangers obviously have better players than us but they also had the luxury of totally freshening their team up from last Saturday. I agreed with Skelton that perhaps we have had a rub of the green in some games so far and the other night was the opposite. A period in the Dundee Utd game comes immediately to mind . Surely we would not have been hammered by five if Forrester's disgraceful assault had been rightfully punished. Big test of the teams mentality now and we have to be up for this as Hibs will be like 'dogs off the leash ' after their first defeat last week. I have asked a few times about Tapping but no answer . Why ? and is he available ?
