Seven wins in a row and now 6 points clear. I'm certainly in the camp of it would be good for the Highlands to have 2 SPL teams. Of course we get the Highland derbies back, and extra income from the attendances, as well as the excitement of the derby, but It occured to me the other day though, that there is one other massive benefit. We will have another ally in the fight against a 10 team SPL. If two teams are needed to block it, then with other Chairmen started to stutter, then ourselves and County could be key IF everything goes to plan for us and them until the end of the season. Years ago, Highland teams were blocked from joining the SFL, and even when we joined, there were many lowlanders not happy to travel 'such long distances'. How fitting would it be, that in a years time, it could be 2 Highland teams that dictate the whole structure of the league. That really would be 2 fingers to all the prejudiced ones who don't want us there!

Personally, I think our squad is good enough - as long as there are no more injuries. If, come January we are full strength then I think we will be starting to climb the table. No need to pay extra expenses if we have the squad available. If we have lots of injuries again and still at the bottom / close to the bottom, then maybe look at short term deals. However, I think the priority would be trying to extend Davis loan deal for the whole season.

Qormi ?? Is that a football team for vegetarians??

I find it so important now to be a role model and an inspiration. And I know that may sound strange to some people, but most important is my connection with my fellow posters and the connection that they breed with one another. - Johndo MacKenzie

Girls should not play football. It's just silly.

Of course it would be the correct thing to have both ICT and County fighting it out together in the SPL for a multitude of reasons. However, how far away is such a reality? Much better odds of ICT climbing up the table clear of relegation than County maintaining their heady heights into the New Year.
