I think Lewis did OK and would be happy if we could get him back for the rest of the season. I don't think he is ready for the Premiership but Sir Craig might try to get him a Championship Club. -

We were hoping you might know. According to Jim Weir he is injured. -

Fair play to J.W. He has identified our problem left back position and got in a full time Premier League player for part-time wages. It is obvious he sees Malone as a utility squad player filling in as cover for injuries and suspensions, he is not the answer to our mid- field problem. I would expect Kennedy to be farmed out to the Juniors to get him match fit. The young keeper will probably have to keep the bench warm but might get his chance due to injury or given the number of yellow cards McCallum is picking up for blatant time-wasting ,suspension. -

I believe, though could be wrong, that Mark Hill, Lewis Moore and Ross Cunningham were all signed short term up to the January window. I would be happy if we were able to extend the contracts of all three until the end of the season. Hill has made the position his, Moore brings a bit of pace and I don't think Cunningham has really been given a chance. If all three were to leave we could be in trouble. -

Target - 12 points from 9 games. Over the last 9 games we have gained 15 points. 9 points coming from our must win games,losing out to Brechin , but picking up 6 bonus points from our good wins over Raith and Airdrie. So, our 4 must win games over the next 9 games are as follows. BRECHIN .Home. DUMBARTON. Away. STRANRAER. Home. STENHOUSEMUIR. Home. Possible bonus points from AIRDRIE Home and MONTOSE Away. Much will depend on any January signings and the fate of our loan signings. -

It sounds like J.W. is no too happy with Easton's contribution and lack of end product. Will he be brave enough to drop him? ( Stand by for incoming from the Easton is God fan club.) -

I don't think you read the post in full. Over the next 9 games, where do you you see the points coming from? -

I have already discounted anything from the following :- Raith Rovers, Arbroath, East Fife, Airdrie and Stranraer. If we add Dumbarton and Brechin!!! RELEGATION IT IS THEN. -

Given the lack of activity on this site you wouldn't think we had a MUST WIN GAME coming up. In order to avoid a dour relegation battle over the rest of the season we have to get at least 12 points over each of the next 3, 9 game quarters. This would give us 45 points and a respectable mid-table position. The easiest way to do this is 4 wins from 9 and anything else picked up is a bonus. Jim Weir should have the following games pencilled in as must win games. Stenhousemuir. Away. Brechin. Away. Dumbarton. Home. Montrose. Home. Anyone got a better plan? -

Pretty decent pedigree though.
