| 82. Author: Ahoy!Ahoy! Date: Sat 10th Oct 2026. 19:04 Defensively we are sound, midfield is quality the only reason we aren’t gonna win the league is the fact our strikers aren’t good enough. Ideally getting some out on loan in January and get some folk in who know how to actually score. Missing a goal scorer is the only thing missing from this squad, perhaps Olly Thomas will be the man.

| 83. Author: wee eck Date: Sat 10th Oct 2026. 19:28 The fact is there aren`t many prolific scorers in the Championship. Robbie Muirhead is top with 7, which must include a few pens, and Josh Cooper is next with 4 which will include today`s pen. After that there are four players with 3 each. Rather than finding the `magic bullet`of one striker to turn things round we should be looking at getting supporting players and the midfield to contribute some goals. There must be drills players can practise to develop their skills but converting chances is often a mental problem rather than mastering a technique or getting into the right positions. I think it`s been suggested before but maybe we should get someone like Stevie Crawford in to do some coaching. He wasn`t an out-and-out striker but he converted a fair percentasge of the chances he got. Reply |

Even when at Morton it took a long range strike from Lobban, chances we missed there were criminal, same again today. Our forward players have been awful this season so far and really letting down the rest of the team. Some of these chances are easy, you don’t need to be a professional footballer to put some of them away. Post Edited (Sat 10 Oct 19:33) Reply |
| 85. Author: nick_dafc1 Date: Sat 10th Oct 2026. 19:37 Lennon has to take some of the blame as he’s assembled this squad of attacking players. Adams missed two and McLeod one absolute sitters, you have to score these. Reply |
| 86. Author: hurricane_jimmy Date: Sat 10th Oct 2026. 19:41 Could be worth sticking Charlie Gilmour back in the team - he and Amade were a great partnership and seemed to link better with the strikers. It is strange with the Pars how many proven goal scorers we recruit from other clubs that seem to struggle to do the business with us... Reply |
| 87. Author: cfad Date: Sat 10th Oct 2026. 19:55 A long way to go in the season but we absolutely must start converting our chances. Autumn/Winter period is key in this league with more injuries and suspensions for all teams ahead, so our squad being quite deep should hopefully help in the months ahead. Just need to start hitting the back of the net and taking the chances! Reply |
| 88. Author: Ahoy!Ahoy! Date: Sat 10th Oct 2026. 19:58 Adams 0 in 7. Kane 0 in 7. Shaw 0 in 5. Rudden 0 in 6. Morrison 0 in 4. Tod 1 in 8. That’s our strikers record this season in the league. Our goals this season have came from. Tod 1 Cooper 4 MacLeoad 1 Lobban 1 The striker situation is what’s going to cost us this season. Reply |
