Match Report
An early Billy Dodds goal could not stop us slipping to another defeat. In the aftermath of a second successive home defeat at the hands of Hearts, the players were immediately back on the training ground as the spectre of relegation loomed. "We must pick ourselves up very quickly. The coaching staff can only do so much', the players must appreciate the situation the club finds itself in and show real character in the weeks ahead." Commented Sturrock.
