Losers Go Home Time
Not quite a winner takes all encounter as a draw would maybe suffice for us, but it's certainly a loser exits the League Cup competition kind of day. We had a smashing win at East Kilbride after a first half that gave little clue about what was to happen after the break. Five goals in a 14 minute spell ensured the points went North and the tie was over just after the hour. Raith lost 3-1 to St Johnstone which leaves them three points behind Inverness in the proverbial six-pointer with every goal having a two goal swing. We currently enjoy the advantage in Group F. At present four second placed teams are better off than us and four teams are on the same six points than us. Therefore it would appear that only a win will suffice for either team with Raith Rovers unlikely to progress either way.
Looking ahead to the Raith Rovers game, Scott Kellacher said
“We’re looking forward to it, we know it is going to be a real hard game. I was delighted with the performance against East Kilbride on Tuesday but we won’t get carried away and we’ll keep our feet on the ground.” “We know it’ll be a hard game against Raith Rovers, they have some great quality players that can hurt you at any time, so we need to be at our best. It’ll be the fourth team from the Championship we’ve played in the last month, which is good preparations for us going forward, we’ve learnt a lot from the games.” “I think we’re going in the right direction; we’re building a good squad but it is important we go down there and believe in ourselves, are ruthless in front of goal like we were on Tuesday and look to get a clean sheet too. Overall, we just need to go there and work hard.”
Here's the format for this season's League Cup
The group stage will involve all 38 teams not involved in European competition, plus the winners of the Highland League and Lowland League. There will be eight groups of five teams playing each other once in a round-robin format, to take place across five July dates (16, 20, 23, 27 and 30) and will use the traditional three points for a win and one point for a draw model. Straight to penalties for the bonus point, Eight group winners and the three best runners-up progress to the second round, when they are joined by the five clubs competing in Europe, and revert to a traditional knockout format.

Raith started the campaign well with a healthy 5-1 win at Elgin. Easton (x2), Rowe, Vaughan and Mullin were the scorers. They were caught late in the fixture with East Kilbride, going down 4-2 in the space of six minutes after conceding three goals from the 88th minute for a surprise defeat with Rowe and Vaughan getting the goals. In midweek their consolation was netted by Jack Hamilton. According to Barry Robson, Raith were hard done by and should have had a couple of penalties. They were the better team for large parts of the game and his keeper never had a save to make.
Always did have a big chip on his shoulder
Inverness Caledonian Thistle FC are delighted to announce the permanent transfer of defender Oscar MacIntyre from Hibernian FC, on an initial 1-year deal subject to SFA clearance.
Oscar, 20 years-old, is predominately a left back but can also play right back. He signed for the Hibernian Academy in 2019 from fellow Edinburgh side The Spartans. He signed his first professional contract with the Hibees in 2021 and he made his first team debut in May 2022.
While at Hibs, Oscar had two loan spells with League One side Queen of the South both last season and previously for the first half of season 2023-24. He spent the second half of 2023-24 on loan at Annan Athletic.
