Makes sense, if you are a Fife team in danger of being relegated from the Championship, appoint a manager with a track record of getting Fife tesms relegated from the Championship.

Congratulations to Steve Clarke and the lads on qualifying for the play offs. This Scotland side are still a long way from being world beaters but finishing second in the group is an achievement that looked beyond us only a few months ago but, with five consecutive victories with limited resources, we have clearly made progress. Can we now go on to take something at Hampden againt a Danish side so far imperious in the group ? A point on Monday, better still all three, will improve our chances of being one of the seeded teams giving us home advantage against potentially slightly weaker opponents. A good night tonight but more work to do. Being a Scotland fan is not quite the ordeal it used to be.

Yogi returns to Inverness   Inverness will host Dunfermline on Saturday, complete with new manager John Hughes, after Yogi was appointed as the man tasked with saving the Pars from relegation after a dismal first quarter of the season has them toiling at the foot of the table with no wins from thirteen games. The cinch Championship game kicks-off at 3:00pm with Inverness looking to get back to winning ways and the Pars hoping for the 'new manager bounce'. The first encounter this season ended goalless, but Dunfermline were looking the most likely to take the points as Mark Ridgers stood firm.

Sean Welsh and Michael Gardyne scored our goals but Joe Chalmers and Patrick Reading replied for the Honest Men to give them a share of the points. It's a tough old league this one with every team capable of beating the others on their day. The Pars went down 1-3 to Morton last week to rubber stamp their position at the foot of the table and Yogi has some task to get them away from the bottom half of the table with the top five looking like they will contest the promotion slots. However, in his favour, there's plenty of time to change that.

Over the same period, Dunfermline have two draws and two defeats. Touch wood, but we still have the meanest defence conceding only eight times whilst Dunfermline's defence is pretty much in line with their league position. Breaking News from EEP   Latest Team News Inverness could have David Carson back in the squad for this game after return from injury and family bereavement. Shane Sutherland has missed the last couple of games and we are waiting on news of him. Cammy Harper returned to the squad last week. Well, what a boost for the Pars with the announcement of big Yogi as their new manager. He kept County afloat last year and of course will always be remembered as the man that led the Caley Jags to their greatest triumph in winning the Scottish Cup. I imagine this will be an excellent bit of business by the Pars and he won't take too long to get the team playing his way. Let's hope it takes more than a couple of days. The start of his tenure will be hampered by the loss of Kai Kennedy and Vytas Gaspuitis. Back to the days of 'guid honest laddies'....   View full article

As long as we get three points tomorrow I couldn’t really care what happens with them

Let's not be side tracked by the circus at Dunfermline. Focus on the football and getting the three points.
