Alex Dyer and this squad

Continuing to progress is important.

The last few games have been excellent but we need to keep building on it. Can’t slip back to the attitude of we play “insert weaker team here” in a few games. 

The character of the side is coming through now. The sleeves were rolled up today and we were full of desire to get the results.

^^  yes completely agree, the character is back. Winning helps to breed character and confidence which in turn leads to more winning. 

Superb work from AD and the team. We’ve thrown away some daft points in the first few weeks but it’s worth saying that at the start of 18-19 we did that under SSC. It’s largely the same group so hopefully the rest of our season replicates that one.

I was hanging off til 11 games to make any judgement. He had a really difficult start, very difficult fixtures, very unlucky v Ross County and St Johnstone. Since then he's done exactly as expected and beat the teams we are better than.

He has us well organised and he's balanced out the squad well. He's getting a good level of performance out of players who we would have expected less.

Definitely has the potential to be a good manager for us, the signs were there last season. Glad he's now turning it into results.

A decent opening round of fixtures with Motherwell (hopefully) still to play.

Well done to AD and all the squad.  Playing as a team full of spirit and desire is a real compliment to their willingness to fight fof the cause.  I think the addition of Kiltie has added an extra dimension and the form of Tish has been outstanding.  Cant fault any of the players today, congrats all round.

One thing of note today that after has definitely improved on was his subs. All the right calls at the right time, definitely helps when the bench has that strength in depth

His trust is growing in the squad. IMO he was reliant on a small group previous and perhaps reluctant to use others at key moments. You see now guys like Kiltie playing himself into that group. Pinnock and Rossi as well. Which increases his options. Hopefully the other new arrivals build that trust soon to give us more depth.

What was also noticeable today was the real quality we had to come off the bench. McKenzie, Brophy and Mulumbu are starters at most other clubs in the league but they are being played out of our team at the moment.

Chuffed he's proven us wrong, want him to do well with us as he's a good guy. Just took him too long to see we can't play a lone striker with only defensive midfielders. 

He went 2 up front as soon as Brophy was available. He really didn't have many other options.

We played a lone striker today with the same midfielders that started the season though. 
 

I get what you mean but IMO we are now gettin the results that our play earlier in the season deserved now!

Difference is tish in particular was getting forward a lot more and getting into the box. He was rewarded with a goal and could’ve had another aswell.
