If Doolan were brave enough, he'd make subs at halftime. He has nothing to lise, after all. IMHO Lawless and Ablade on for Fitzpatrick and Robinson, with a threat of Diack on for Graham if he doesn't manage more shots in the first 15 minutes.

I thought at half time he should have made three or four subs to make a clear statement that it wasn’t good enough.  Any of them could have been hooked but all we got was McBeth for Sayers and the same old. 
 

The same 11 will probably start at Hamilton next Friday

That's one of the worst halves of football I've ever seen from a Thistle team. Absolute shambles. 

Wait till you see the second 😆

Absolutely dog dirt.

Maybe Dunfermline problem was the manager and getting rid of him has helped them play to their capabilities. 
 

We should probably try that.

I was willing to give Doolan a chance, but things are getting worse. The payers we have are better than this. I don’t think Doolan is the man to fix this.

Attendance 3,938 apparently- freezing day miserable conditions to get there but will there be a higher home attendance in the rest of the season? Given our plight the financial damage of such a result is almost the worst aspect of today.

I don't think the funds are available to either sack him ....

Or 

Bring in more/different coaches 

An excuse that doesn’t add up.  Per league place position is enough to sack him funds wise.  Lose 2 league places and we lose £150,000 more than double the 1 year salary to sack him.  We have also had £500,000 investment- yes a lot of money on other things but there will be some there.  
Secondly off the top of my head when it is stated we couldn’t afford anyone else - Neil Lennon, Alex Neil, Ian Murray are not with clubs so if we opted for any of them then there would be no fee needed paid.

I don’t think money is the issue with this - it’s the board and whether they will take action against someone who is a playing legend.

Any of these Managers will want a Contract - we dont have the Cash to commit long term - so it will be Graham 

The £500K is to balance the Cash Reserves we spent after the first £500K 

We are in trouble - off the Park & on it 

Yes the Dools legend has an impact but the Board genuinely have No idea what to do next

So what do we do ? Keep Doolan for ever, as I don’t see the financial situation changing. As some point we will have to bite the bullet as I can’t see another club desperate to take him away. The sacking is inevitable one day.

If we had won these most recent 2 games we would have been 4 points off top...instead it's season effectively over. I'm not sure it makes any sense for Doolan to leave this season - I don't think we will end up with any manager who will overcome a 10 point gap to win the league, it would be a financial risk with very little to be gained.

But we could get a manager who could guide this squad to win the playoffs. That is the only hope. I don’t see Doolan doing that, so either write the season off now, or have a punt with someone else.
