This season was always going to be a rebuild alot of people have got to realise how bad we have been in the previous seasons we are in a better place this season there going to be games that don`t go according to plan but it`s not because we are bad it`s just one of these things I would like to think we can all get behind the players and management work work through this season and be ready for a better season next year and keep building on what we have

But now its looking like it could be another season like the last one. We could very well end up in the relegation places again. That`s not improvement, no matter how much better we might be playing in the odd game here and there the results are still poor. I`m starting to think we`ll never ever get back into the premiership - New spendy board, new high profile manager, almost a whole new squad and yet...SAME OLD P1SH

Fed up of the same old “this is a season of rebuild” because the last years been garbage. About time we actually aimed high and tried to get into the Prem. Its embarrassing watching clubs like Livi and Hamilton having extended spells in the top flight with the difference in resources/income etc.

It’s a new spendy board but they aren’t spending the money on the right things.

This season is going to end up like the previous 2 seasons.

We’ll end up scrapping for points here and there hoping to avoid 9th IF this level of performance keeps up.

"we are in a better place this season"

a few sideways steps at best but thats it no matter what area you look at.

Don’t see how it’s funny shellypar.

Our next two home games are Queens Park and Ross Couny. Our home form is worse than our away form.

Lost our last 3 home league games to Arbroath, Ayr and Airdrie. We lose the next 2, which currently I think we will, then we’re only a couple of points off bottom.

This recent form is a real cause for concern.

This is just my opinion, if folk want to laugh it off and think well still be pushing for the top 4 then that’s up to them.

Neil Lennon has said the playoffs are the target, so anything short of that will be a failure.

If we don’t get top 4 then of course it’s failure considering the money we have spent! Anyone saying otherwise is deluded

The top 4 might have been the target, but 5th or 6th would not be a failure in my opinion.

Finishing 5th or 6th would be a failure to hit the target.

How do you know what players are signed via analytics? There are obvious ones but who knows how signings come about.

I would say JCM, Nuridean, Gilmour, Fraser, Terrell have all been a success. Others like Bray, Macleod can’t be judged yet as aren’t seen as 1st team ready signings.

Fine, so given how the last 3 seasons have gone, you`re fairly happy with recruitment , and how they`re performing on the field ?

Recruitment has been a lot better, so yes. But the real test is in the summer when Otoo, KRH, Mehmet and Kane move on.

Recruitment has been very hit and miss.

Still baffles me that 3 years later and Chris Kane is still our best striker and we haven’t addressed this issue.

We’ve struggled to score goals in the championship, even in league one we were hardly prolific, it needed fixed then and still needs fixed now.

If Kane, KRH and Mehmet are on the H-U-G-E wages some claim, maybe we can`t afford to replace them until they`re off the payroll. Some folk seem to think we have a bottomless pit of money at our disposal.

You didn`t answer my last question, so I`m guessing you think they`re underachieving ?

Let’s wait and see at the end of the season. No point in throwing your toys out the pram after a bad performance.

They have shown against Raith, Hibs and St Johnstone that on our day we are good enough.

A bit of patience is required.
