I couldn't help but notice that the cannon fodder have just beat us.

What a shambles.

Whenever Fordyce and Brownlie are in the same team you know it's going to be a long night.

Too top heavy defensively for my liking looking at the team selection but we probably went for presence ? - keep it tight, attackers on in the second half when the opposition tire ?

No need to throw in the towel yet. We're only one goal down plus AJ has a few days to look at the squad.

We were awful tonight.
Montrose deserved their win.
Fordyce and Brownlie are beyond awful. Mercer was poor at RB and Doyle even worse when he went to RB for the 2nd half. Aird and Dykes were really poor and in all honesty very few even get pass marks. Our passing and decision making were just awful tonight. Really poor decision to recall Martin IMHO. He should be done at our club. Very lucky not to be 3-1 down. Montrose saw the game out very comfortably.

Yes Martin has come from nowhere. No signs of a back twinge when they scored their second ?

Surprised Dobbie never got a run out. Surely the last 10 mins wouldn't have done any harm to get him match fit?

I'm fine with Dobbie not getting on tonight. He shouldn't have been risked on Saturday and I suspect that outing has set him back injury wise. Only HT in this tie and it might easily take an extra 30 minutes on Saturday if we are to progress. i'm not particularly confident though based on tonight's evidence.

[Sane_Man]

Kicking myself for not betting on Montrose, when i saw the starting line up. Murray, Sterling and Mcguire should have started and i probably would have gone with Mehmet in goals.

I have to question the judgement of bring in AJ for these games. He hasn't worked with most of the players before and there isn't time to find his best team. It would have made more sense to let Laurie Ellis take the team and audition for the job. Worst case scenario, we could have still gone for AJ in the summer.

Ninety minutes in and halfway through the first play off tie the new management team is taking stick-wonderful.
