    However but for stupidity from Booth and shyteness from Rakovan (thanks Csaba) we'd all be praising a 4th win away from home in a row under Neilson

    So not going to get too down about a draw away from home that we should have won

    Robbie is now having to make the best out of what he has available and he has his work cut out for him.

    Next season, if we fail to get promotion, there is a decent chance that Dundee, Arbroath and maybe Raith will be in the Championship...........

    I think Robbie will sort this mess out eventually, but it's going to take time - maybe longer than we all hope.
    Agreed in part I think RN stands a chance in getting the team up this season, don’t discount it. Maybe this is our sticky patch he talked about. 1 loss since he took over still isn’t a bad record. Also other teams around us will drop points unexpectedly too. January may bring in the players RN needs to strengthen the squad.

    Do Transfer Windows short change fans? We can all see where our weaknesses are but our hands are tied. Wasn't like this years ago where you could wheel and deal up until transfer deadline day. No wonder fans don't go along to games these days.

    It's the same for everyone and didn't stop Levein and Houston building the second best era in our history... you mention it nearly every post.

    It may take a while but eventually folk will get pissed off with Robbie, regardless of who signed the players. He's got a pass at the moment but it won't last. This is exactly what happened with Csaba.

    A good example is the substitution yesterday when we were one up. There hasn't been much mention of it but in a few months stuff like that will get slaughtered.

    Laszlo got slaughtered because he was absolutely useless. If Neilson turns out to be as useless as he was he'll deserve to be slaughtered. Let's hope that's not the case.

    TTT is desperate for the fans to turn on Neilson, but he is obviously a much better manager than the useless clown that Martin forced us to endure for months longer than was necessary

    Even after Ayr result I felt much better about things as I don't have the sand depressed feeling of no hope under Csaba

    Happy with our return over the 8 games he has had, and of course he is stuck with poor keepers the clown signed

    Having suffered yesterday in that godforsaken hole of a place I would love to hear how exactly we should have won given that the very mediocre opposition actually had the ball in the net more times than we did? That was up there amongst the most clueless Mixu and Csaba performances too slow all over park couldn't put two passes together for much of the game and Mr W King shat his pants when he could have won the game. We need a huge improvement at ICT and Neil Alexander in goals please

    Neilson does appear to be a far better manager but some of basic failings yesterday of being unable to put 3 passes together or beat a man or get stuck or just slackness on ball by both CHs that could have cost goals need stamped out fast. And by God do we need a decent goalie.

    On topic the substitution was stupid and seemed so at the time. There were murmurings from the terracing.

    Don't tell us somebody that goes to see United knows better than someone listening to the radio😋
