Whoever will be at the helm next season we owe Neil McCaan and Billy Dodds a huge Thank You for getting us to where we are now .They did a great job in the short time they were here . Wishing them All the Best for the future ....Hoping the managers position can be announced soon .

Some very encouraging comments from McCann: https://ictfc.com/post-match-neil-mccann-ictfc-2-2-ayr-utd

Well said izzy they have both done a good job for us and raised the profile of our club a bit which is a good thing.

From what I hear I think we should do our best to keep Billy.

Ah...you are right. Yet another senior moment !

I’m sorry but I feel ever so let down. ICT could have gone out on a high but, no, just again an uninspiring draw. Now we have to wait nearly three months before another game and, even then will we be allowed to be actually there. The lockdown is easing, I felt so safe at the Stadium last December when allowed to see the game, so why couldn’t we have been there tonight? It could have made a difference to the performance. The easing of lockdown seems to be aimed at pubs etc instead of fans wanting to see our teams. Sorry, on hindsight, maybe I should be sending this to the Scottish Government and not this forum but I just wanted to vent my spleen as the saying goes. Sorry again. Don’t castigate this old fan.

I agree DD and we should credit Devine too. Some questioned us signing him, but he has been the leader at the back and become the mainstay of our defence.

Come on Hamilton

I wonder if we will be looking to get cover for Kellacher until he's back as well, not heard anything on his progress but the reduced coaching staff can't have helped with the stress JR was under.

As has been said, I think that a mini tour of the north of England would be ideal but probably beyond us financially. However, with foreign travel still being difficult, I wonder if their would be some potential for collaboration with the likes of County and Elgin to try to persuade two or three English Championship or League One clubs to prepare for their season with a mini tour of the Highlands ?

And we have a lot of positives to look forward to. We have the nucleus of a decent squad, a Manager (Robbo) who wants to be with us and, hopefully, will be firing on all cylinders after the challenges of this season.

Robbo is coming back.

I thought that in the first half we showed a lot of good movement up front giving options for Welsh and Allan They won a lot of possession and rarely wasted it. It was Welsh who played a peach of a pass to MacKay for the opener. When MacKay and Sutherland were subbed we were a lot more static up front and we resorted to balls going square and back too often. Young Lyall looked a talent and it is a shame he hasn't had a bit more game time in his spell here. It was a game we should have won but I guess that with nothing particular at stake, it is inevitable there wasn't quite the edge to the motivation. A draw was a fair result at the end of the day. Just a word on Robbie Deas who put in another excellent performance today. Robbie has been ever present in the team this season. He only turned 21 earlier this year but has put in some mature performances alongside the more experienced Danny Devine. They have formed a solid partnership and it is worth noting that the final table shows that only Champions Hearts have conceded less goals than us. Robbie, as a defender, may not get the accolades that the attacking players get, but he has been a real star for us this season. Well done Robbie!
