Absolute scandal Vigurs was booked . Agree on some occasions he,s been his own worst enemy but today FFS that was just plain nonsense booked for being pushed to the ground. Agreed we seemed to lose our shape when we took off Bell and Vigurs. Plenty of good performances today but for me Calder and Donaldson were stand outs..6 points

I thought the entire team were superb today however special mention to Calder who was absolutely magnificent in everything he did4 points

Another good win, out of the blocks quickly, scoring goals, flooding forward at times, all good. Then came the second half. We maybe sat in a bit and offered them the ball. Cost us a goal but hey, we can't complain about a 3-1 win. Still, if we went full pelt it could have been five or six. Calder was excellent, he is skinning defenders for fun now. Oakley is holding and giving and Doran is getting stronger by the game. Donaldson is immense at the back, so comfortable on the ball for a tall guy, baller. Vigurs booking was farcical. But how often do you see that. The guy that gets shoved around gets booked for, well, erm, getting shoved around.4 points

I’m liking this new strategy of making a good start to games and having them pretty much sewn up before half time. But why didn’t we think of it before?!4 points

Joe Chalmers the unsung hero. Week in week out this man performs to his best and hardly anyone ever talks about him, he fits in all over the park and today he was my MOTM Well done Joe on your first goal for the club3 points

A superb result today which puts us in the mix for the play-off places. After the misery of last season it is great to be leaving the stadium with a smile on your face.3 points

Vigurs deserves the MoM award! A great performance from him. What an asset he has become and it’s great to see him celebrating towards the fans for his goal. A lot of criticism was given to him in the past (not least by me!) but today his defensive run from penalty box to penalty box exemplified his change in character on the park. I thought he showed restraint by not reacting to being floored, only to be booked! No wonder Robbo went mental at the ref.3 points

Shocking again today. Why was Vigurs booked when he was pulled down? Why was Donaldson booked when he didn't touch the QOS player???????2 points

Crap refereeing once again so i think we got the better of 12 men what is with refs when they come up here ?2 points

Still basking in the glory of 7 goals and 6 points this week! Forgot to mention the save from Polworth's shot that the keeper had, great shot and great save. It could easily have been a much higher scoring game. Great entertainment, great attitude from the players, great afternoon! But we should do a video compilation of referee howlers....1 point

Has he not actually achieved the hatrick already? He left us in January 15 for Wigan who got relegated to division 1 that year. He moved to Dundee Utd on loan the following season and stayed there all year seeing them take the drop. Wigan then loaned him to Oldham for the 2016/17 season, but he failed to score at all for them and then came back to us in January for the rest of the season. He's now heading for his 4th consecutive relegation!1 point

Really enjoying watching the team, playing great football and good to see the whole team scoring goals. A big change from a few months ago, the easiest passes seemed to go wrong but now its clean and sharp all over the pitch. Couldnt fault a player today. Bring on Dundee1 point

Another great performance from all the team now they have found the net, exciting play every time they pushed forward, not easy to pick a man of the match1 point

We went back to basics after the Dumbarton travesty and have slowly introduced more attacking intent. I really enjoyed watching us today, particularly in the first hour when Doran, Polwarth & Vigurs were a cut above anything Queens had in midfield. While I remain an Oakleyskeptic, I thought he did a good job of hassling their centre-halfs and the creative players had more space as a result. We retreated & tired in the last half hour, but Calder & Donaldson deserve a mention for going full pelt right to the end. Excellent performances from both.1 point

Clearly they don't listen to their own programmes then cos Barry Wilson described it as a 'trundler' on open all mics!1 point

TBF it's no more than a goal a game....and three of those games, we were down to 10men, the settled backline that had that great record, hasn't been settled in those 6 games, so I think it's still a solid run, defensively...seems that Calder has settled in and looked good past couple of games, and if Seedorf could stay fit he has real potential. Great to see Doran score today. he looked pretty good against Falkirk as well...it's almost like a new quality signing Has to be said after a shambolic season last year and a difficult summer and start to the season, the team has come on leaps and bounds, and in Donaldson, Bell, Chalmers, Oakley, Seedorf, Ridgers and Calder we are seeing additions that are looking worthwhile having been given a bit of time (I think Trafford is in the same category, but hasn't played much recently, Baird I think has done OK, Austin obviously to soon to tell). Both Mulraney and Brad Mckay seem to have kicked on this year, and for all the criticism of him Polworth looks an increasingly important player for us. Vigurs and Tremarco have been stella for us, but I'm looking at the newbies and the youngsters Not only am I up for the Falkirk home game in March...but I have managed to sort another trip up for our last home game against Dumfermline, my gut feeling is we'll have secured a play-off position by the end of that game, the play-offs are of course a marathon if you finish in 3rd/4th, and I don't think it's been done very often, but I can see us going the whole way (which I didn't expect to be saying a few months ago) if we are lucky with injuries, and suspensions.1 point

I was very critical of Vigurs when he got sent off a couple of games ago, so it is only fair to congratulate him on a great performance today. He and Polworth dominated the middle of the park. Connor Bell's work rate was an example to all1 point

A well deserved win against a team that are no mugs. Vigurs and Polworth had great games, Calder was a revelation at left back, Ridgers had a few decent saves, Donaldson oozes class, the front three defended from the front. Not a failure amongst the 13 played. We are playing attractive stuff, creating chances and scoring. Long may that continue. The ref and near side linesman were poor. How the ref saw fit to book Vigurs for being pushed to the ground when the ball was dead defeats me. Donaldson was very unlucky to get booked too. Credit to Robbo for hooking Vigurs after the booking to save the risk of another yellow. A tough 15 days for the team, but 10 points in that time and we must be in with a decent chance of the play offs. Well done guys, roll on Dundee!1 point

That was a pretty good all round performance. Star of the show for me was young Calder who did a terrific job at left back. He got a bit of stick earlier in the season for not getting stuck in enough but he didn't duck out of challenges today. Instead he played a mature and assured game and seems to have had a good deal of confidence instilled in him. He got forward well and put in several decent crosses. He seems to have the ability to get a cross in where other players look to take an extra touch first. Tremarco won't get back in the side if he keeps that up. Donaldson and Vigurs were again excellent. Vigurs' headed goal was a thing of beauty - it wasn't powerful but he had the composure to pick his spot and the skill to put it precisely there. Bell and Oakley worked very well up front and with Doran and Polworth zipping about well, there was a lot more movement up front than we have been used to. If Vigurs' goal was a thing of beauty, Chalmers' wasn't. The BBC refers to him "firing" in the 2nd goal. If that was "fired" then it was certainly a slow burner. He seemed to miss-hit his shot from the edge of the box and the direction and probably a bobble or two deceived every one and it crossed the line in seeming slow-motion. They all count! Queens started the day in a play off place and they looked a pretty decent side to be fair. The fact that we managed to beat them pretty comfortably is a measure of how much progress we have made.1 point

Vigurs got booked for being pushed to the ground earlier in the season as well. The referee was generally fine in the first half but made some strange decisions in the 2nd half. Twice Polworth won the ball fair and square and was blocked in trying to move away with the ball. Apparently it is an offence to try to play the ball but fine to block off the player trying to play the ball. I think some of these referees watch too much american "football".1 point

Thoughts from brief highlights: Oakley dived very sweet strike by Mulraney superb set-up play from Polworth on several occasions fantastic tracking back by Vigurs to save a certain goal caught at least twice with our pants down at the back - Vigurs (above) saved a 3 on 0 situation. How does that happen at this level? Anyway, loads of positives and few negatives from a great result. It’s interesting watching the Falkirk and ICT highlights - seemed like different games!1 point

What has happened these days where we can't sit together anymore? I remember games in the second division with Livingston and we were all mixed in and there was no drama at all. In a time when our rivalry was probably a fair bit more serious. I visit other games across Scotland quite regularly and in a few league two and league one matches there has been no segregation so what makes us any different?1 point

Inverness CT -V- Raith Rovers - Preview
tm4tj posted an article in Previews 2023-24,
The great escape coninues on Friday night at the Caledonian Stadium as we host Raith Rovers in a game that will also be screened live on BBC Scotland with Raith trying to cling on to the coat tails of Dundee United and the Caley Jags looking to slither away from the play-off zone. What could possibly go wrong? Savage and Carragher will be joined in the squad by a welcome returnee in Sean McAllister who has returned fit from Everton after about six weeks out. That's a nice wee bonus for Big Dunc. However, he has the wrath from Arbroath after his "tools down" comment in his pre-match interview. As long as he has not got the wrath from Raith. Keep the faith!-

Queens Park 0-1 Inverness CT - Report
tm4tj posted an article in Reports 2023-24,
Massive: Just under 1500 fans rattled around inside the national stadium for the proverbial six-pointer at the bottom of the table with Inverness looking to get out of the play-off place and Queens one point ahead at the start of the game. In a tense first half Cammy Harper scored a stunning free kick after Cillian Sheridan had handled 25 yards out. Boom! That's how it ended despite QP upping their game in the second period as Inverness kept them at bay.-

Queens Park -V- Inverness CT - Preview
tm4tj posted an article in Previews 2023-24,
Hampden Calling: Carragher is now a doubt after feeling his hamstring. Other than that not much has changed apart from Remi Savage, who has not recovered after he got a boot in the face from Cammy Kerr. Apparently Kerr's boot is OK but Savage is suffering from minor concussion and will miss the next couple of games. Maybe that was Kerr ensuring he gets a game this weekend.-

Inverness CT 2-1 Arbroath - Report
tm4tj posted an article in Reports 2023-24,
Smokies Kippered: On a blustery day more akin to AA Milne and Winnie the Pooh, Arbroath and Inverness battled it out to see who would get the final nails hammered into their coffins. Arbroath were in the last chance snug in the last chance saloon, whilst Inverness have one foot in the grave. I don't believe it! Arbroath tried everything, they even took their own wind with them. However, they had Murray, Bird and Slater on from the start but O'Brien missed out. Zak Delaney also started for the Red Lichties. A bright opening spell saw Alex Samuel denied twice inside five minutes. Once by a combination of Max Boruc and his crossbar, the second by Boruc on his own as Samuel got his shot away from inside the box. Wallace Duffy got the goal we deserved on the interval as he drove across the keeper from the right side of the box to put us in ahead at the break. Leighton McIntosh restored parity on the hour as he drilled home from eighteen yards, but Alex Samuel won the points with a late strike to all but relegate ten man Arbroath who had Ricky Little sent off.

Inverness CT -V- Arbroath - Preview
tm4tj posted an article in Previews 2023-24,
It's Now or Never: That's what Elvis used to say. We are in deep trouble up to our necks with no signs that we can turn this around. Defeat to Arbroath could be the final nail in our coffin with only fifteen points available to us ahead of this game. The play-offs are looking more likely by the minute, but it's not beyond the realms of possibilty that automatic relegation is still an option should Arbroath beat us on Saturday. With the long suffering fans rapidly losing faith in Big Dunc, it's crunch time as Arbroath head North to the venue they won at the last time they were here. Sadly they come to the Caledonian Stadium off the back of a 2-1 midweek defeat to Airdrie, and we could all but relegate them on Saturday with a win. However, that's nothing to gloat about as we could be next...-
