It`s been a wholly uninspiring season so far. At the back of my mind I`m thinking that the team and the football they play, isn`t any better than the one Stevie Crawford left. I`m really surprised, and disappointed, that Lennon hasn`t addressed what seems clear to me, the lack of experience, and leadership in the squad. They have brought in plenty of potential but really need guys (like that Kevin Holt for Ayr) with a bit guts and nous to help them.

It does feel like they are creating plenty of chances though, maybe one of these games the floodgates will open.

We`re in danger of being cut off from the top two.
If we seriously want to go up we need to start scoring.
Livvy then Partick now become games we need to win.
11 points off top 7 off bottom

If we are striving for promotion this year then we have to accept that our results are nowhere near good enough.

3 wins in 8 league games and clutching at the coat tails of the teams above.

Scored 7 goals the same as Morton and Arbroath. Only QP have scored less!

Had lots of time to resolve the striking problem - most of the teams in the league are scoring goals so why are we not?? Has NL run out of ideas?? Even without the guys like Thomas and Shaw we should be scoring.

Big frustrated rant above 👆!! Getting depressed with this!!

This is just poor. Lennon seems incapable of producing a team that can score goals.

I’m always looking for progression from season to season but I see none.

I`m not a happy clapper Berkey, but some of the football we played today was fantastic. Their keeper pulled off two really good saves and Admas missed a sitter when it was easier to score. Bigger question for me is what happened at their goal. We are weak at aet plays. I think that goal spooked us and it took us an age to get back into the gane.

I don’t think you can blame Lennon, some of the chances we’ve spurned this season have been really poor.

Adams needs to be dropped though, he’s been a poor piece of business.

We seem to play some decent stuff, but if we can`t score from our chances, it`s always going to be a growing concern. I would be more worried if we weren`t creating chances, but we really need to start scoring and turning 1 point into 3.

If we don`t get promoted this season, I would be concerned about how long the bord team will be happy to write off million pound plus losses before they look to offload us. I`m not looking to scaremonger anyone, but that`s just how I see it.

We just don`t kill teams off when we`re on top, the two draws Vs Ayr this season have been 4 points dropped against a poor side


To be fair, the home game v them we were denied a last ditch winner by an incredible save

It`s not difficult to diagnose the problem but a lot harder to come up with a cure. The league table is a bit skewed at the moment. We`ve only played 8 games and only 3 have been at home and we`re well into October. We`ll have a better idea where we stand at the halfway stage when hopefully everyone will have played 18 games.

Evidently we`re doing something right, dominating games but not converting that dominance into goals. It`s particularly frustrating given the wide open nature of the league this time round.
There are teams well above us who I`m confident we are way better than but you can`t keep giving away points like we have done a few times in the 8 league games.
Big two home games coming up,hopefully we can convert opportunities and make a statement of intent.

Dominating games but the strikers need to put the ball in the back of the net. Plenty of opportunities to score but not clinical. It should have been 3 and out of sight at half time

The forwards need to do better.

The trouble is, the longer it goes on the more likely it is to become a mental issue.

We`re neither 11 points off top spot or 7 points off the bottom. Other than that...

We should have got a goal scorer in over the summer. X

With all the possession we have and all the clear cut
chances we have, most of these games should in the
bag before halftime.

Some wild takes on this thread. Anyone at the game would have seen we played well. Any other day we win that 5/6-1.

Patience is required.

Signed umpteen strikers and none of them look capable at the minute. We’re creating chances, we’re reasonably solid at the back.. now we’re relying on a boy who didn’t score a single league goal last season to save the day. Poor recruitment will cost us again.
