Absolutely shocking, Nelson, Craig, Heffernan.... Its neither wonder we are so woeful, all 3 should never have kicked a ball again after last season, slow, weak, and just utter dross

The spine of the team is non-existant.

When are you going to give the man a break. Nelson did nothing wrong today. Our problem lies in midfield and again another manager has failed to realise you need legs to win games. Sibbald & Alston are fit and made light work of our mid two. Craig is a huge problem but Stubbs inability to notice that is a bigger problem.

Not disagreeing with you but who today could Stubbs have brought on to replace Liam Craig.
just so you know i dont rate LC at all but we are massively lacking in our squad.

Sam Stanton. He should know already that Craig is slower than a month in jail. So he shouldn't have to worry about it. He takes far too long to make decisions. The problem will be Craig is probably a good lad around the club.

We need boys that are hungry and Liam Craig has not got it.

Stanton? Played in his proper position he would do a job.

Nelson did great. We keep giving it to him though because nobody else has balls or wants to take the ball. It's a bloody embarrassment.

We are asking out centre half to be our Xavi.

Stanton probably deserves his chance but will Stubbs be brave enough to drop LC. Will be interesting what he does when Robertson is also available with Scott Allen.

The abuse Nelson gets after every game is embarrassing. He did nothing wrong today, in fact his passing wasnt even bad.

Pathetic to single him out yet again he's played well in both the last two games.

We need pace - very slow - Kennedy looked promising though Harris has lost his confidence and Heff has never been fast and mostly a finisher - today he did neither with his chances.

Falkirk looked sharp going forward and we were slow and predictable and easy to defend against.

Again it's about leaders. We have no leaders on the park. Talk is cheap.

Craig can talk the talk but he's beginning to prove once again that he cannot walk the walk.

We lack consistency and are becoming spineless once again after only 3 games.

Couldn't agree more. Think Nelson done what was require although not faultless.

Pace is what we need and LC and PH don't have it. Slowed the game, we should be playing like the last five mins at that tempo until get a commanding lead.

Lacking players. Like to see Stubbs has up his sleeve or were lucky to finish top six.
