    A beating b beating c is not a good argument btw.
    Where did I say people are saying we don't need to improve our away form? I said people need to stop blaming the surface when we have clearly won comfortably on the surface before.

    And if Dundee and Ayr can play on plastic, why can't we?

    The fact its four in our first two is even more concerning. We haven't scored an away goal since 24th August.

    What camp are you in?

    Personally I’ve not been happy since Morton at home, playing this way and winning isn’t sustainable IMO
    I think you are correct,i am in the camp that thinks we will lose both away games coming up and finally be knocked off the top in November.We do have one of the best strikers in Scotland who will hopefully prove me wrong but the rest of the spine behind him are as soft as shyte.
    Our central defence has worried me for years and when you take Butcher from centre mid that area worries me too.

    Maybe not confidence in winning but no fear going into them either, they are on grass for one and secondly they aren't the type of games we struggle in

    I'd also point to Patrick's 3-1 wins at Inverness and Dens in the last 2-3 weeks when weighing up our chances.

    Do we really need to resort to the auld excuse that playing on a plastic pitch is a disadvantage to us?.When we played Alloa on a Friday night their full team had been working that day. Our vastly overpaid players(133% wages to turnover ratio)had been resting up for days ahead of the game yet got overrun by a bunch of part timers.
    Please do not insult my FN intelligence.

    The way i see it, Stenhousmuir, East Fife, Arbroathx2, Alloa, Dunfermline and Partick Thistle performances have just not been good enough! Even some parts of the Dundee game were not what i want to see, then add in what i thankfully didnt see at Ayr and QotS, then that is far too many below par performances that will soon catch up on us, just like it did under Ray!

    Not looking forward to the next 2 games as i really dont know what bunch of players will turn up!
    Agree with this. Am not going back till 27 Dec as a self imposed sanity ban after witnessing that abomination at Palmerston. Hopefully we can still be top when I return!

    A big massive sticking plaster has been put on the split J,if we get a result next Friday stiches will be inserted to allow the healing process to continue.
