Matchday Thread Inverness CT -V- Celtic

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Ofere is struggling. Now looking a bit out of his depth. We have no ball out.

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Rugby foul score 12-12 !!

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

13-12 to us as Commons enters !!

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

TAKE OFF OFERE

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

SCRAPPY DOO booked for DIVING - Sky confirms sly, cheating *******.

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Well Ross Draper VERY, VERY lucky not to get second yellow. Thank god that the ref is so feckin inconsistent. We are now on the cosh and I cannnot understand why Ofere has not been hooked.

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Cellic 9-1 on corners but we are holding on but it is constant pressure.

[KennySim93]

What is it with our keepers and passbacks?  Esson nearly cocked up!

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

It is at this time that I expect the late Cellic clincher !!

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

I take it that this is our Cup Final X1 and we are giving Ofere as much match time as possible. Are we holding back on subs to disrupt the game late on ? 10 minutes to go and that is risky stuff.

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Tansey so close and a deflection to boot. Doran coming on !! DOH.

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Commentary states that Cellic have won their last 51 games when they score first and are late goal specialists. Doran and Vincent for Williams and Christie. STRANGE.

[Gavroche]

Stupid fault by Ofere.

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

That could have been a second yellow fer Ofere who looks totally spent.

[DundeeICT]

Great point! Now a semi final to deal with....

[Yngwie]

An unexpected and very welcome point. Well done ICT!

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Great feckin point - pros and cons but NOTHING to fear fer next week.

[Gavroche]

Very good point ! 9 points above Dundee United. Next week, we can do it !

[+roarer]

Many thanks to the broadcast team. Very welcome here in oz. Great job lads!

[tm4tj]

Determined performance and the best point we have earned for seven games.

[crownjaggie]

Great point.  Commentary well received out here in Saudi.  Cheers.

[Gavroche]

JH said that Brill has a dislocated knee.

[Caley Mad In Berks]

Great point, well deserved. A special pat on the back to Esson who has had a lot of folks on here on his case recently.  Looks as he'll be our keeper for rest of season now.

 

But overall, a good performance from the team as a whole.  We harried Celtic from the off, giving them little time to settle, ok giving away a lot of fouls (and needless yellow cards) in the process, but nevertheless keeping them at bay when it mattered.

 

Very encouraging for next week.  I'm looking forward to it already.  See some of you there.

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Ok - why did Watkins play so deep ? Is Ofere a 60 minute man and should be used like this next week and put in a shift like he did early doors ? Do we have to keep Meekings as last man at all times ? Williams or Doran or 60/30 minutes each but who first ? How to we get Tansey more in play ? Christie and Watkins on the break could murder them with pace. I am now looking forward to next week with optimism.

Yogi just on Sky decrying second half performance and sit and protect style. Also criticised poor passing game. Also criticised the pitch and CC more or less informed us that there WILL be a plastic surface next season. We are better than that. We are going to have a go next week and make the fans proud - FECKIN respect (again). CC on Ofere said he "looked really tired after an hour" and that his son should have scored.

[ICTRoughi]

What a difference from Wednesday night. I thought we were more tighter at the back and I thought going forward we were more active than we have been the last few months. I agree about Ofere fading towards the end but that's to be expected due to him having a long time away from the game.

Looking forward to next week!
