Hayes off injured - very bad news. McBain on.

Dundee, Raith and Partick all leading now - we'll lose a bit more ground if this stays the same.

Feck - as I type, Rooney misses when through on goal - Alex will have something to say about that. And Wood scores for County...

October 17, 200916 yr

and now County 1-0 up also....

USL final game in Toronto (or is it Montreal) today. Winner takes all for thius season.

Montreal versus Vancouver Whitecaps.

Can you check it out on the TV> and see what you think of the Whitecapstalent and pace.

3 p.m. in Montreal i think.

Cool and wet here in the West.

October 17, 200916 yr

has CaleyD been on the sauce, he just said Mcbain of for Hayes lol, must be the sun.... Rooney Sqanders a golden chance.... again.

October 17, 200916 yr

I am afraid that Rooney will take a while to mature. Has touches but not dynamic enough for ICT.

IMHO

October 17, 200916 yr

It sounds like we are on the back foot again... kirk just had a shot wide...

October 17, 200916 yr

If it stays 1-1 it'll be our best home result of the season!

October 17, 200916 yr

County going top again if it stays as it is with us 7 pts behind....

October 17, 200916 yr

Dear , dear!

No killer instinct.

Terry, where are you when we need you ?

October 17, 200916 yr

County going top again if it stays as it is with us 7 pts behind....

County did however manage to pick up a couple of goal scorers in pre season....

October 17, 200916 yr

If it stays 1-1 it'll be our best home result of the season!

If we keep improving like this then we should be safe from relegation by Easter.

wont see it, will be at BMO for the TFC game

October 17, 200916 yr

Sounds like Proctor is our only threat at moment

October 17, 200916 yr

Should 1-1 be viewed as another failure?

October 17, 200916 yr

does anyone at the club want to swap Proctor's boots with any of our Forwards?? CaleyD Can you make that happen?

October 17, 200916 yr

Should 1-1 be viewed as another failure?

Another 2 points dropped at home should certainly not looked upon as a success

October 17, 200916 yr

At the start of the season if you said 4 pts off Dunfermline for the first two games then I would have been happy BUT with the other results a win today was required....

October 17, 200916 yr

Should 1-1 be viewed as another failure?

Depends on whether you consider our objective to be promotion or avoiding relegation!

maybe?

October 17, 200916 yr

FT 1-1. Very predictable. So predictable, in fact, that it's just got me 50 points in the prediction league. Would rather have had the home win, mind.

October 17, 200916 yr

Ourselves Dunfermline, Ayr, Airdrie and Morton are being cast adrift by the other 5.... :frustrated01:

Got me a few quid at the bookies, but I'd rather have had the win.

That my man it the biggest question, the only thing im going to be happy with is not going down...

October 17, 200916 yr

At half time today, most results were going our way and we were gaining ground. Sigh....

October 17, 200916 yr

Really think we can forget promotion 2 points out of 15 at home is nowhere near that sort of form

KDM Trophy 26/27

Those six games were key in getting oscar , jordan and others up to speed and also supporting a two squad team.

KDM Trophy 26/27

So getting promoted means we have six games fewer than last season. Not everyone will agree, but I think that's a good thing.

KDM Trophy 26/27

KDM Evolution Trophy 2026/27
SPFL announces expanded KDM Evolution Trophy format
The SPFL has today announced the format of the KDM Evolution Trophy for season 2026/27.
Following the success of last season’s revamped competition – which included an inaugural league phase – season 2026/27 will now see more clubs compete in an expanded 40-club league phase.
The following 10 guest clubs across the Scottish Highland Football League and the Scottish Lowland Football League East and West have accepted invitations into this season’s competition:
Banks o’ Dee
Berwick Rangers
Bonnyrigg Rose
Clachnacuddin
Clydebank
Cowdenbeath
Cumbernauld Colts
Formartine United
Fraserburgh
Gala Fairydean Rovers
They will join 10 William Hill League 1, 10 William Hill League 2 and 10 William Hill Premiership B-teams in the tournament’s opening round.
Clubs participating in the league phase will be split into four pots by division, with each club playing two different opponents from each other pot, totalling six matches. William Hill Premiership B-teams will again play all league phase matches away from home.
Points gained by clubs across six matchdays will feed into one league table, with the top 22 clubs qualifying for the knock-out Round of 32.
William Hill Championship clubs will enter the competition in the Round of 32 as seeded clubs, alongside teams finishing in the top six of the league phase, with the remainder of the competition following a traditional knock-out format.
Member clubs and the Scottish FA considered the new set-up hugely beneficial for youth players in providing more opportunities in the key ‘transition phase’ of ages 16-21, as players move from the academy environment to senior football. Youth prospects aged 15 will continue to be eligible to participate in the KDM Evolution Trophy, following a successful trial. The Scottish FA Cooperation System, which was designed to strengthen youth development in Scotland, has also been extended.
Neil Doncaster, group chief executive of the SPFL, said: “We are delighted to build on the success of last season’s new-look competition by inviting 10 guest clubs to participate in next season’s tournament, which will be sure to benefit the community clubs we have invited and provide new challenges for our member clubs.
“While we will continue to minimise travel with broadly regionalised league phase matches, following discussions with our members, home clubs will now retain gate receipts in full in the league phase, to support clubs financially.”
Over £1.3 million in prize money was shared with clubs for last season’s KDM Evolution Trophy, which was an increase of more than 50% on the previous year. The SPFL is pleased to confirm that last season’s prize money has been maintained for the 2026/27 tournament, with the winners receiving £150,000, and the runners-up £100,000.
The Scottish-based, internationally operating construction firm, KDM Group, remain proud title sponsors of the competition.
Iain Jones, Chief Executive of KDM Group, said: “We are extremely excited to continue our partnership with the KDM Evolution Trophy after a highly successful first season of the new-look competition. Next season’s expanded format promises to deliver even more excitement and opportunities to clubs and players across the country, which reflects KDM Group’s support for Scottish football across all levels of the game.”

The KDM Evolution Trophy league phase will commence on the midweek of August 11/12, where participants will look to better Inverness Caledonian Thistle’s run to the final last season. Championship clubs will again enter at the Round of 32 stage on November 3/4, with the 2026/27 showpiece final taking place on either the weekend of March 27/28 or April 3/4.
The fixtures for the 2026/27 KDM Evolution Trophy league phase will be published on Thursday 16 July at 1.00pm.
The full schedule of prize money for the KDM Evolution Trophy is set out below:
Winners: £150,000
Runners-up: £100,000
Eliminated in semi-finals: £75,000
Eliminated in quarter-finals: £50,000

Eliminated in Round of 32: £30,000
Eliminated in league phase: £15,000 - £18,500 (depending on final league position)
A summary of key competition dates is set out below:

World Cup

I agree with that.
I can't see Argentina repeating and my Brazilian colleague tells me that they are not good right now, although in Brazilian terms that likely translates to only being good enough for the quarters or semis! No other country springs to mind as an eventual winner other than France or Spain although Spain also have a bit of controversy going on after naming no Real Madrid players to the squad.

Don't know what to make of Haiti. That's a pretty good result but looking at the squad list there are only a handful of players at recognisable clubs. One of them - Derrick Etienne Jr - plays for Toronto so I see him every week. A pacy winger, who will be familiar with the stadium in Boston, but someone who flatters to deceive most weeks. Scored something like 8 in 46 games for Haiti and only 5 in 60 for Toronto but popped up just a couple of weeks ago to score an absolute banger against Charlotte. Hopefully that is him done scoring for the season - internationally at least!
Not that I put much faith in the rankings, but it does have to be noted that Haiti are 83rd and New Zealand are 85th. The two lowest ranked teams in the tournament. Even Cape Verde (69) and Curacao (82) are ahead of them. Scotland are at #43. What surprised me - in the rankings - is that Ghana, who I thought were higher ranked, are listed at 74th spot so round of the 'worst five' according to the rankings.
