ICT are away to Forres tonight in the North of Scotland Cup....short notice, but hopefully some will make it along to cheer on the team.

ticket prices?

Blast and botheration!!!! Was working today and just got on to the computer. I haven't missed these games for years - how come no advance notice. Poor show and very very disappointed.

Is there anybody there ?

Not many updates..the reason for which is probably the 0-0 HT score.

ICT:

Antonio Reguero, Martin Laing, Matt Murphy, Steven MacKenzie, Ritchie Foran, Gavin Morrison, Kyle Whyte, Liam Polworth, Jason Oswell, Nick Ross, Ryan Watson. Subs: Calum Ferguson, Kevin Buchan, Jay Gheyne, Ryan Christie, Scott Mathieson.

Thanks Oddquine, I was beginning to think my computer was playing up again.

0-1 ict dont know scorer

Not a lot different a team than the one for the Wick game....though names are listed differently. Now whether that means they are playing in different positions, darned if I know. Heck this game is complicated for simple people!

Differences are no Skinner or Warren, but Murphy on from the start, Foran added.......and it looks like one less sub.

1-1 and still no idea re ICT scorer.

Straight to penalties. No extra time. Looks as if 1-1 FT score.

That is disgraceful. What a horrendous result Going to be a long hard season ahead by the looks of things.

A predominantly u-19 team against the Highland League champions? Which planet do you think ICT exists on?

Professionals v part timers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh come on, we are an established SPL side. I would expect our youth team to hammer everything in the Highland League and most of SFL3 and SFL2 into the bargain.

Anyone who thinks our u19s should be able to roll over a Highland League side needs to go and watch Highland League football.

Professionals v part timers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You know something the sodding arrogance in that makes me .

How can anyone possibly assume because we have fielded a team of a load of laddies who are still learning (because if they weren't they'd all be in the fecking first team) against a team of mostly adults who have been mostly playing together for ages, we deserve to win just because we are ICT and an SPL team?

Away and Support one of the OF, because their fans think they only have to turn up to win as well! Thought ICT fans were better than that.

Right, before anyone has a coronary I'd like to point out that jaggy (I assume) and I were just joking.

There are smilies to indicate that......eg :clown: etc

If they ain't used....the remarks ain't a joke. But that post has saved you from a vituperative response I was just about to send.

BTW..Goal Scorer for ICT was Ryan Watson.

Rather bizarrely the game went straight from full time to penalties with no extra time being played....penalties finished 9-8 (10 taken).

Not a bad game all in all and our young lads did well against a very big (physically) Forres team who liked to pack the defence.

We controlled the game for large spells, but rode our luck and lost the equaliser towards the end when Forres started to load on the pressure.

Ryan Watson got our goal, Gavin Morrison hit the crossbar from a free-kick and Foran should have done better from the rebound which went over the top. Polwarth was also denied by the woodwork when shot across goal came off the upright and rolled along the goal line without going over.

As has been the case with all the matches I have seen so far, there were more positives to be taken from the game than negatives and I imagine many of the young lads are going to be pushing for starts this season.

From what I saw we also didn't pick up any injuries...which is a blessing!!!
