Now there’s a 24 carat “corner turned”. Four consecutive league wins for the first time since forever.

For once, we actually capitalise on a Fifer slip up, and for a wee while at least, winning the league is now 100% in our own hands. Yeah, it’s a stretch, but it is possible.

This has the potential to be a great foundation for the rest of the season.

You say it’s a stretch. I’m of the mind the fifers peaked too early and we’ll be able to get our noses in front for the last few weeks. It will be tight, granted, but maybe less of a stretch than you think.

If you lot win the league you really ought to thank us. We sell you Jordan Allan and take 4 points from your title rivals (and we find it really hard to take points from anybody). You’re welcome!

You’ve fucked us over plenty the last few seasons - it’s about time you gave something back!

Good three points and a good day with our neighbours dropping points. 
Horrible place to watch football, and Edinburgh complained at every opportunity for the now expected 90 + 8/9/10 game time.
Never one to have a go at refs, as normally decisions even out, however after today defo feel there’s a bloody vandetta against us. Blatant foul on lead up to the goal, another blatant penalty not given, and the general play was narrated by Edinburgh players continual moaning. So many quite unbelievable decisions which I feel the club should act on.

What about his post was negative? He’s probably a bit harsh at times but I agree with what he said about Burrell

Absolute over reaction to suggest a young player will demand a transfer because he is not a regular starter in a side currently on a successful run.

Shit stirring rubbish.

Much more comfortable than the score line suggests. 
McGinn, Morrison and Rowe our best players. 
As far as the referee goes there are no words. In order of it happening.

1. Stopping Morrison just as he was about to score for a clear kid on injury to an Edinburgh player. 

2. MCKay clearly bundled over at their goal. 

3. The push on MacKie in the box right in front of the linesman. 

Utterly disgraceful that could have cost us in the end. 

That’s three times I have seen Edinburgh now and how they are not down beside Clyde and Peterhead is beyond me. They are very poor. 

Let’s forget what Dunfermline are up to. Just keep winning and see where it takes us

Surely the pecking order for our strikers now has to be 1. Burrell 2. Allan 3. Wright and 4. Oliver? Burrell and Allan are ours, out and out strikers, Wright can be used if Burrell and Allan are mis-firing and Oliver is not a striker but a good support for a striker.

Today also highlighted the massive influence Henderson has on our midfield. The minute he went off we seemed to lose all cohesion and it got quite harum scarum at times. Thought it was a poor substitution by McGlynn taking Henderson off unless he had a knock?

Gary Oliver did really well again today. He holds it up really well and scored an absolute peach. I bet the players love having him in the team.

Agree that Henderson was missed when he went off.

My reading was that he was being protected from that arse of a referee giving him a second yellow card.

Agree with Henderson point. Him and McGinn stroll it together in there
