Jags at the Rose
It's the second League Cup fixture for the Caley Jags as they travel to Prestonfield to take on Lowland League East side Linlithgow Rose. Rose got off to a winning start in group F as they beat Morton 1-0 in their opening fixture as we struggled to a 1-1 draw with League1 East Fife. On Tuesday night Rose lost 0-2 against Premiership St Johnstone with a Caley Jags XI playing out a friendly at Strathspey Thistle and bagging six goals. Morton made our draw with East Fife look like a ground breaking result as the Fifers beat them 2-0 on the same night. We have had defender Kerr Smith on trial during pre-season and he has penned a one year deal.

Inverness got off to a low key start with a disappointing performance in their opening game. We did win the penalty shoot-out but our performance left a lot to be desired with an error strewn lackadaisical ninety minutes. Poor defending, no bite in midfield and no service for the front men saw us struggle to make any headway with East Fife taking the initiative to punish an error from Liam Sole to open the scoring before the interval. We huffed and puffed but never blew the house down before a time added on strike by Adam MacKinnon took it to penalties where we netted all five spot kicks.
We have added defender Kerr Smith to our squad with Jake Rodgers, Archie Kerr and James Clark being loaned out to Brora Rangers.

The great start to group F for Rose was put on hold in midweek but they can hold their heads high after a decent performance against now Premiership St Johnstone, going down 0-2 in front of over 1200 fans. Two down at the break, they kept Saints out for the whole of the second half with Cameron Binnie making a handful of saves to keep out the eager Perth forwards. They had beaten Morton last Saturday with Calum Rae scoring the only goal of the game after an hour at Cappielow . The stats show that Binnie had no saves to make in a deserved win over the Chamionship side.
