Come on the Caley - put these campers where they should be!!!!!!!

I'm going over early by bus for a couple of pints before kick off. Hope that will be the start of a really enjoyable day!!

Not me must be 3 points!

Oakley out injured ?..... I hope White is on form today !!!!

Edited December 29, 20187 yr by MuirtownJaggy

So Oakley misses out with big Jord stepping in for him...could be a very long afternoon.

Good to see Daniel back.

Baws !!!!!! 1-0 ........ had to be Billy Mckay!!!!!

Wee judas himself had to be that money grabbing rat! And us with the traffic cone up front

1-1 

The traffic cone ?

Boooooom.......... Walsh corner stuck in by Jordan White 1-1 ?

Who says he's a traffic cone lol mon the big man !

Robbo has been sent to the stand !!!!! He is raging about something !!!!!!!?

2-1 ........ shock, horror !!!!!! No win today..... not even a draw !!?

It was there for the taking. Twice as many strikes as County , but come up short again.

We remain 4th , but the gap to the top increases and the teams behind close in. No critisisim in the effort from ICT today, plenty of pressure & shots, but like the season so far, lack of clinical finishing!!!! Well done to the team today, but not for the first time this season, not good enough ?

Raging bout this result another mid table finish looming unless Robbo gets his finger out and signs a striker if no just stay in the stand wee man!

I don't think it is finishing. It's the central attacking midfielder. ICT is converting midfielders to forwards. But that system works best when you have a forward that can drop back, like Foran or Sanchez in the past. David Platter was terrific at it as he was a converted attacker. Get someone behind White and the goals will go up.

missing the start of the Edinburgh Derby no doubt 

To be fair, I thought we played outstanding today. We dominated county, particularly in the second half. The fact their keeper got mom says it all. White's goal looked like a great finish and I thought he played with  heart and passion and did his best to lift the crowd too. Any other day we would have scored 3 or 4. Had the finishing been better it could have been 5 or 6.

Plenty of passion on display throughout the team. Think Rooney could face further trouble though. Looked like several  punches were thrown. And more than 2 could have been sent off.

The aim of football is to score at least one or more goals than your opponents!!!!! It is the final part ( scoring) that has been and continues to be our issue. Lots of effort and enthusiasm from defence to midfield will not win games........ scoring ...... regardless of how, creates results ?

Can’t disagree.  Possession and heart very encouraging, but get the ball in the net.  Graham is a dirty bar steward,his intent was clear from the minute the ball was played but tbf to Dallas had the red out immediately so no real need to get a man sent off.  But nice to see a scrap at a derby too....??. Great atmosphere, great game just a ***** result.
