Looking forward to this one now after the frustration of the Killie game. Our defence has stabilised and the return of Kev McNaughton fills me with more confidence. We have a real goal scorer given the chance in Billy McKay and one of the quickest players in the league in Jake Mulraney. Owain Fon Williams was back to his best against Killie. Greg Tansey showed up well. It's the rest of the midfield that worries me, and that's where this game will be won and lost. Fingers crossed we can keep a clean sheet, let's see how long that lasts. Oh, and no more penalties, the inquisitions are too pedantic, I'm losing the will to live after the last one.

 

Inverness CT: Fon-Williams, Raven, Tremarco, McNaughton, Warren, Polworth, Draper, Billy Mckay, Tansey, Laing, Anier 

Subs: Esson, Ebbe, McCart, Fisher, King, Brad Mckay, Cole.

Jeeso, No Mulraney 

Yes Anier 

Cole on bench

I assume Mulraney is injured after the kicking he got on Saturday. 

No McCart? McNaughton in central defence?

a tad worried by line up.

looks like a team bereft of any width, given Aberdeen have decent wide men, looks a free run at our full backs

McNaughton and Warren against pace. These selections just get worse and worse. We must be at the drawing straws stage !! Case of old school and Forans signings. Hey Ho. I have put a wager on a Tansey .OG.

OK OK, I'll take the draw

Is that 3 CBs again?! No pace and no width, which is what killed us in the long winless streak. I'm desperate to be proved wrong, but that line up is a shambles.

Another spin of the random selection wheel. Fisher on the bench, would like to see him come and show the boss what he has been missing.

It could be anything.

I thought Laing did ok in midfield on Saturday, so maybe Foran is playing him there again. 

 

That's County 1-0 up

Not an easy listen so far, think I'll go out onto the road and play with the traffic

Thought McCart had settled in pretty well done nothing wrong but left out maybe injured.

Not a lot of pace amongst that starting 11 

good to see Polworth back though

 

Easy goal conceded from a corner 1-0 Aberdeen :(

5 at the back and we still can't defend a corner.

Uphill from here on in.

ASHes to ASHes - Dust to Dust 

Could be on the receiving end of a thrashing here .

Please now or later - please do not say that 0-1 at half time is not a bad outcome.

0-1 would be great !! it would mean we were winning. Sadly, that boat has sailed .... hoping for 1-1 as I cant see us winning this one. 

At least County aren't winning anymore. Still, 1-0 down at half time isn't so bad...cue IHE.

I`ll take that score NOW !  Unless somehow we are going to play the best second half of the decade.

To make things worse....... the goal is now awarded as an OG for Warren !!!!!!

At 1 nil we're still in with a chance of a point,a very slim chance but a chance all the same.8/1 for the draw seems tempting.

Little changed tactically for #ICTFC. Still playing long and with 3/5 at the back. Cole on for Draper.
