    The 2 week break excuse is more fantasy, we have never ever played well as a team under RM we've never dominated teams over a run if games all we've managed are sporadic wins playing well here and there and ill say it again you cannot win championships scrapping wins all over the place you need to actually play well for long periods with the odd stumbles now and then.

    He is absolutely one of the worst managers we've ever had and I really hope he gets punted before the month is out

    3 away wins in 2017 in the championship is absolutely shocking and indefensible
    We did play well, once....not remember that heady day in August last year we put 3 past Partick Thistle where Cammy Smith looked brilliant then it all went tits up for him and the team since, cant for the life of me remember any other truly good performances since.

    agree, we need to be dominating and scoring goals, no room for 'ups and downs' look at that season Hearts went up, they horsed everyone with a team of kids. Scraping wins wont win us the league as last season proved.

    Defo the worst manager i've seen for the way we are set up and the way we play.

    Not often I agree with you guys over shedka, but Ray's time is up. We are so poor sometimes. Its not just the formation, our players are and have been lacking basic skills. Either due to to much pressure or not enjoying their football enough to relax. Either way its a managers thing to fix and he aint fixing anything, same week after week after week after week. There needs to be drastic change in managerial style, it aint coming from him so it has to come elsewhere. get rid asap

    Lost a lot of respect for McKinnon after watching that ludicrous display against Dumbarton, he had the gall to patronise the supporters and claim we aren't happy unless we beat them 6-0.
    That showed to me he is out of touch with us minions and is pig headed in the belief that his system will work.
    Well the precious system does not work. It didn't work last season and it isn't working this season.
    Does anyone believe we don't have the quality of squad to gain promotion?
    I certainly do to the point we could realistically win the league with a few games to go.
    But the folly of continually playing the same way with no Plan B, standing with your arms folded and then brushing off criticism with snidey remarks smacks of sheer arrogance.
    Nobody is expecting us to just turn up and win, but that the team play with desire and try their best to adapt to circumstances in order to win the game.
    But at the moment we are just throwing games away with pathetic performances, getting bullied by very average teams because Ray knows best and won't change.
    Get well rid.

    You say changing manager wont get us promoted but before that you mention finances, Shedka, if we dont get promoted this season we could end up closing the doors due to finances. This is serious sh1t here, we cant have ups and downs, we need out this sh1tey league ASAP. We shouldnt be in 'the hunt' for 1st, we should be romping the league with this team on paper.

    Personally i'd take the gamble now.

    It's not just this season , performances last season were as bad and things are not improving and to be honest , there is no sign of things getting better with him as manager , fwiw I said at the time it was the wrong appointment , we need to get away from ex players who have come through our system as boss it has never worked and a bit of due diligence from badly would have shown him that

    At least he will walk into another job with the fizzy pop cup win on his CV

    Genuine concern is I do not know who we could get in to work with us and ST etc

    For a glancing second I thought McKinnon had gone to Killie
