Soory folks said it weeks ago and it pains me to say it we are going down, and I think it will be in automatic place
Anyone care to disagree with me and confirm on what that is based

You also said weeks ago that we would not win another game after defeat by Ross County and directly before we went 6 games unbeaten.
In saying that there wasn't a lot to be positive about today (as with last week where we gave Killie far too much respect in the way we set up) although despite being 2nd best for much of the game we could easily have taken 3 points if it wasn't for 2 horrible lapses in concentration or took one of our chances (neither of which looked as clear cut in the highlights as live). Bizarrely Canning still gets accused of "selection bingo" when our big problem in recent weeks is the exact opposite with far too much loyalty to under-performing players and a unshakable resolve to stick with a formation that hasn't been working for too long.
Next week some bold decisions are needed to move away from the 5 at the back and go with a flat back 4, drop Imrie who not only has been dreadful for months but clearly drains the confidence out of his team mates and give players the license to actually pass the ball rather than this horrible ball over the top.
I'd also like to see someone like Cunningham get an opportunity off the bench rather than hope Redmond will suddenly contribute (imagine if Crawford had put in that type of 30 minute cameo!!).
We can still stay up and both Thistle and County would rather be in our position than theirs. Football like most sports is one where the margins between success and failure are extremely slim but if Canning can secure a 5th consecutive season of top flight football it will be a truly remarkable achievement considering what he's had to contend with this season.
