1st half was as bad as the last couple of seasons home form
Could have been 3 doon
At least they improved 2nd half
25 seconds left and we take a short goal kick.
Same issues as last year, slow possession football in our own half puts the team under pressure.
The problem is system, tactics, management.
Undermine offered hard work and commitment and deserved to win. We are playing a system that doesn't fit our players.
Oh and Hamilton is a liability, get Parrish in next game.

Just watched game on fast forward.
Underwhelmed with that.
A few lightweights it seems to me and we have now made it difficult to qualify.
Find the keeper comment strange
However bad we were in the first half,you have to credit Dunfermline for getting right in about us and not allowing our players to settle into the game and should have been out do site by half time.
we were very poor and didn't deserve to take anything out of the game.
Hopefully McCann can get the team playing as a unit quickly,if not then we are looking at another shlt season.
Tonight I was watching the Bill Shankly programme on BBC 2 and Bill Shankly started out his managerial career at Carlisle United who at that time played in the 3rd Division North in England.
I said to my wife that Neil McCann should have started his managerial career in the lower leagues of Scottish football before progressing to become manager at Dundee FC.
Very slow and predictable
Full backs poor yesterday.
No forward threats
midfield powder puff
Just the same as most of our games last season.
We will get absolutely roasted down the flanks in the league if we play like that again
I read this board a lot, rarely ever post. It astonish's me sometimes how quick people are to jump on the bandwagon that everything is Sh*t. I happened to be at Hearts v Dunfermline last year in the same cup, and Dunfemline did exactly what they did to us yesterday, got in there face, made it hard to play.
We are a very new team this year, a lot of players still getting used to playing together, give it a bit of time. Its one defeat, and people are already pointing fingers at the manager, new players etc.
Nobody wants the manager to be a success more than me but that was a shocker yesterday.
Cups are big for me and it would be indefensible if we don't get out of this group....not a sacking but indefensible and puts the manager under severe p.
Warm weather training, not our first game, manager realising the importance of the cups, well backed by the board, there are no excuses for that.
That looked inept to me yesterday though admittedly wasn't at the game and inept tactics and inexperienced/not good enough players would not bode well.
The next game is a big one for the manager and will tell us a lot if the players fancy this Scottish adventure or not.
Peterhead midweek, needing to win.
Let's hope they do for everybody's sake.
