Doumbouya starting for inverness today.

We've done OK but it just feels that we desperately need more pace in the side.  

Feel a bit cheated here.

 

Very unlucky to be 2-1 down. We've played quite well and contained them reasonably comfortably.  

Penalty decision was an absolute joke, there's no justification for getting that wrong. The worst thing was that it was the 2nd one after Gamboa took out King.  

I would hook Vigurs for Doran at half time.  Vigurs is on a booking and he's also lunged into a couple of other challenges as he's too lazy to chase back. With this referee we just cant risk it.

Really disappointing referee performance, what chance has any team in the spfl got when decisions constantly go for celtic?

Thunderous goal from King Billy against the Celts. Sloppy play to give the ball away for the second and then let Sinclair run half the pitch. Playing ok though, so all not lost yet.

the ref is shocking a clear celtic fan would have been a better game if willie collum was in charge

 

What a farce of a decision. We could be 2-1 up playing against 10 men. But no, the ref decides against every other opinion there.

Still in the game but creating very little at the moment!

Think we need to take off the big lad up front, he's not looked very threatening.

What a good call that was, his replacement gets the equaliser.

Come on lads, one More!

I'm in KR REYKJAVIK social club and everybody's looking at me cos I've just shouted F****N YES!!!!!!!

Richie Foran, tactical genius? 

That is a terrific point for us, a real bonus given the number of chances Celtic had in the 2nd half. Great work guys - team and management. 

CM  in Berks--How do you know the score etc? Are you watching it on T.V. perhaps or have radar?

Final score was ....? (Please)

2-2

There you go, Thanks Yngwie.  Green dot for you and one for IHE as follows :

C mon the Caley Jags. Fantastic result.

That was a lovely surprise. As expected, we competed really well in the middle but struggled with Celtic's pace and trickery in the wide areas. So crucial that we didn't let the heads go down the way Sevco did last week, especially after the Draper decision, and fought until the very last minute. Obviously we got a bit lucky with a few shots off the woodwork, and Fon Williams was outstanding, but some of the last ditch defending was superb, and Foran got his subs spot on - Doran, Mulraney and of course Fisher all caused a few problems when we did manage to get forward. 5 points from 3 games against St Johnstone, Aberdeen and Celtic is good at any time, but after the start we'd made to the season, and with a rookie manager, it's a great achievement. 

Looking forward to going into work tomorrow as the only ICT supporter among around 1000 Celtic supporters and giving them a good GIRUY. :)

Re comment about alleged lack of production from Doumboya--what happened there? Just bad luck and not getting the ball..... or just  that he was overwhelmed by the occasion and may have frozen a bit?

Chorley Smileymometer adjudged from pub viewers who have rarely seen ICT before.

FON WILLIAMS  MOM by a wide feckin country mile - BEST EVER goalkeeping display by a Sneck keeper in years

MAcKay   Never really did much but neither did he do much wrong either

TREMARCO  To me he is the most improved player in the SPL. Some of my mates thought he was close to MOM

WARREN  Captain Fantastic and held the line well.

MEEKINGS  Probably at fault fer the second goal but also left unsupported. Otherwise solid in a very solid looking back four

KING  What a feckin peach of a goal as King Billy shuts off the secretarian songs from the away end.

TANSEY  Better display but frees from competition from Draper

VIGURS  Not shure if he should be the choice in these type of games.

POLWORTH  Simply NOT a wide player and I though that he was at fault for the first goal

DRAPER  In the hole as I have been advocating fer a long time. Tansey + Draper in midfield does not = Close to MOM - keep him there

DOOMBAR   I suspect that the statue of Flora moved more in the wind today. Lets hope he is unfit but he simply is NOT a lone striker - but FISHER  is

Mckay.....no "a" & small "k".
