    Alan Martin

    Have just watched first half. From seemingly cruise control , our keeper somehow let's one slip by him , going down like 'The Dog and Ducks' regular goalie . To think we let go Robinson and Atkinson for this guy.

    Why is Leighfield not playing when Martin is clearly unfit. How slow was he reacting to that first goal?

    How many times over the years have we looked comfortable starting a game and then concede a goal with opponents first attack ? There must be numerous occasions and today was another to add to the list . Call it unprofessionalimay, call it poor play , it just seems to keep repeating itself. Today I'll just call it a fat goalkeeper.

    Still carrying an injury, generally unfit or just not good enough?Methinks it could be the latter!

    Is our goalkeeper a relation of Steve Martin ? - as they are both comedians - to think Alan was allegedly the best goalie in the Championship last season beggars belief !

    As he showed last season Martin is a decent keeper and I Can only think he's carrying an injury.
    I don't think leighfield is ready to play regular first team football so think it would be unfair on him to do so.
    What I am aware of is that Martin has had 3 payoffs from previous clubs and with a 2 year deal at queen's may well be on the way to another.
    Nayidea has made a bit of a hash of the signings he has brought in with only half of them starting maybe he too will be gone before or soon after Santa's been

    Leighfield played relatively well at Livingston. A penalty conceded by Rankin and not to blame for Livi's second goal. Had a few decent saves too. I would have him back in next Saturday in the Highlands.

    Look on the bright side, you could be a Bairns supporter. LOL
