One of the signs of a great player is that he can influence the game even when he's not on the pitch

Pity he wasn't fully appreciated by some while here and an easy target for the boo boys when things didn't go to plan. Type of player that gets noticed more once they've gone

I agree but that was a minority, albeit a loud and vocal one. The majority of us noticed and appreciated him at the time and regretted his departure in which there is little doubt that the boo boys played a part.

Loved it when Carson motioned to the North Stand crowd to make some noise......and we did. A fun wee bit of interaction with the fans.

Absolutely. I hope that we are talking to Roddy anout a contract extension. If he continues to imorove and develop at the rate he has been it is inevitable that he will move on to a much bigger club at a higher level. That always bitter pill would be considerably sweetened by a substantial fee.

I thought Roddy McGregor was fantastic on Saturday. If he continues to play like that it should be him plus one of Allatifce, Welsh or McClear to start.

I'm guessing he means Christie is number one with Polworth second and Mackay 3rd. Could be wrong though.

The difference between a team that will be in the mix come the end of the season and one that wont is the ability to grind out results and to win ugly .... it wouldnt be easy to watch and no-one would have fingernails left but I couldn't care less if we win every game 1-0 this season ... if we did then we would win the league by at least 12 points, and likely a lot more .... Would be great to get one over on Killie next week a real confidence boost and the proverbial 6-pointer that could stop the momentum - or at least slow it down - for one of the sides. Would also settle for a hard earned point away from home.

But......fabulous result. Cant agree next week is a must win but a good performance and a point would be good enough for me.

I guess he was getting cheesed off with the 12 or 13 noisy Ayr fans who were making themselves heard above the rustling noises from the home fans.

I am pleased to see that The Rangers have dealt with the racist abuse directed at Kyogo Furuhashi so swiftly and effectively. Within 48 hours of the footage from the supporter's bus on the way to Dingwall being posted on line the offenders have been identified and banned indefinitely and the supporters club involved barred from receiving tickets for matches in tge future. The Rangers deserve great credit for that. However, it does beg the question of why the equally disgraceful sectarian conduct and anti Irish racism which takes place week in week out on supporters buses and away grounds cannot be dealt with in precisely the same way or indeed called out in the Scottish media in the same way that Saturday's abuse was.

I must say having praised Caley for their total football in the last match bit disappointed on Saturday. Having said that we won so should be pleased. I would have liked a bit more flair. In the first game players seemed to back each other up a bit more. A win is a win so chuffed.

One of the signs of a mediocre journalist is an inability to get basic facts right 😁

saw the ball hit Walsh on the chest, and as the Ayr lad kicked ball away from goal it was Tom's goal. Lazy BBC reporting again

I actually thought Gardyne had a good game. He generally used the ball well, and was tracking back to assist Deas, whilst also creating a couple of opportunities. I wasn’t convinced about signing him, but so far he has been doing ok. Whether he is a better option than Doran really depends on how fit Doran is. He looked sharp when he came on and displayed some good skills a couple of times.

Looks like next week's game is our first "must-win" of the season I thought Sean Welsh looked really good when he was on. Another great shift from David Carson, too. Not convinced by the attack, though. Would like to see more people getting forward, quicker, and together - instead of a lonely figure trying to hold the ball up until support arrives. And it might just be because he was close to the camera for the second half, but I don't see Michael Gardyne doing much. He is the epitome of an older experienced pro - rarely running, but not making mistakes either. Usually playing safe balls - sideways. Would like to have seen Aaron Doran brought on much earlier to try to liven up the left-hand side of the attack, which was no comparison with Walsh and Carson on the right. But, hey - 3 points!

Personally I'd prefer bigger margins in our victories, but maybe I'm just greedy! Last-ditch defending of a 1-0 lead is folly and may well result in last-minute disappointment. We should be setting the bar higher and consolidating a victory rather than time-wasting to preserve a narrow lead. Early days though, and 3 wins is 3 wins!!!

Full time. 1 - 0 ICT

This season, above all others, is all about results rather than performances and we are three games, all victories and no goals conceded The road to the title and promotion can be paved with narrow 1-0 victories and, right this moment, I will happily settle for another one in our top of the table clash next week.

On Radio Scotland this morning Charles Bannerman credited the goal to Sean Welsh! He should have done his homework 🤣
