I don't like banging on about this, because of course we should have had the game sewn up long before that. However, this was a top of the table clash, very near to the end of the season, likely to have a lot of influence on the title, on promotion, and even on some people's livelihoods. Add in the very strong likelihood of controversial moments, and what was obviously called for was an experienced, mature referee, who could control the game, hopefully gain the respect of the players, and make sensible decisions. Instead we got a 23 or 24 year old kid, from Linlithgow, a few miles down the road from Stenny. A "local legend" according to the Falkirk Herald. Beyond a joke!

Our continued failure to take our chances when on top across a significant number of our games will be the reason rather than a single officiating error. We need to be clinical in the remaining games and it is in our hands to come top.

No Room for Error It's almost last chance saloon at the last chance saloon club as we face Peterhead at Balmoor Stadium on Tuesday night with the game kicking off at 19:45. It will also be screened on BBC ALBA for those not able to attend, or BAR94 if you want to watch with a squad of fans at the stadium with a juice of your own choice... A cringeworthy penalty decision against Stenhousemuir on Sunday meant that we remain two points behind the Warriors after the 1-1 draw which saw the three points wrenched from our grasp by an incompetent referee, who up to that point, within reason, had been doing okish albeit a bit pernickety. We play this catch-up game and thereafter all teams will have three games left to decide where the title goes, and likewise relegation for those at the bottom end. As it stands it's still in our own hands but anything other than a win removes that option and puts Stenhousemuir in the driving seat. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Match/Ticket/Bus/info Tickets: £10 Adult, £5 Concession ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Inverness CT 59pts THE RUN IN Stenhousemuir 61pts P'Head 📺 ICTFC 14th April @19:45 STENNY - No ⛔ Game ICTFC v Kelty Hearts 18th April @15:00 Cove v STENNY East Fife v ICTFC 25th April @15:00 STENNY v Alloa ICTFC v Accies 2nd May @15:00 Montrose v STENNY That was our starting XI at Stenhousemuir which saw a few changes from the KDM Final against Raith Rovers. A tough game at Ochilview might have taken it's toll on some but Chanka Zimba was suspended so expect him to feature in this one. Three draws in our last three games is not the form of Champions. Last Six League1: W D W D D D We started this run with a 3-1 home win over Montrose. With Stenny drawing and Alloa losing in midweek, we had a smidgeon of breathing space going into the home game against Cove but that was taken away by a goalkeeper. Balint Demus headed in an equaliser because we failed to put the game to bed when on top. A common theme throughout the season and one which Stenhousemuir took full advantage of by snatching a last minute winner. We bounced back in midweek with a good 3-1 home win over Peterhead with as bizarre an 'offside' goal as you will see gifting the Head their consolation. Zimba x2 & Alonge were our scorers in that one, three going on six. Zimba was Hero to Zero at Alloa scoring the equaliser before being sent off ten minutes later with the game ending at 1-1 and our last League1 game was a poor 1-1 draw under the lights v QotS where Ross Millen followed up on his saved penalty to bundle home and earn us a point. Onto the the KDM final and the only bright spark for us was Alfie Stewart's superb free kick. Alas we gave our opponents too much respect and too many opportunities to take the ball from us and for that we suffered badly. We suffered even more at Ochilview having led for around 70mins when Calum MacLeod's goal was wiped out with one blow of the refs whistle in a 1-1 draw. Meh! Heads team that were maybe surprisingly beaten on Saturday by East Fife. They went down 2-1 at Methil with Craig McGuffie getting their goal. Kieran Shanks has been voted the League1 PotM for March having scored an impressive 5 times during March and a total of 17 for the season. That's a great return from the Peterhead front man! Last Six League1: W L L D W L First of the last six was a an excellent 3-1 win over Alloa, Shanks, McGuffie and an og sealing the points. A last minute goal for Stenny saw them leave Balmoor with a 1-0 win and that was followed by a 3-1 win for none other than the Caley Jags with Shanks getting their rather bizarre goal. Shanks again in a 1-1 draw at home to Montrose and his scoring run continued with a brace at Alloa before Saturdays defeat to the Fifers. 🏆 | William Hill League One 🎪 | Balmoor 🗓️ | 14th April 2026 🕒 | 7.45pm 🚘 | Stadium parking onsite - if car park is full, please use Peterhead Academy car park on Balmoor Terrace 🍺 | Social club open at Balmoor for home and away fans 🍔 | CASH only catering within stadium 📰 | Programmes available to purchase 💷 | 50/50 tickets for sale 🎟️ | Online tickets available via link below 📹 | NO match streaming available ❌ | NO cash turnstiles, tickets can be purchased prior to the game from our ticket office located at the front of the stadium or online. 📞 | Should you require any additional info, please contact the club on 01779 478256 OnlineTickets Fanbase>>> £10 Adult, £5 Concession Pos Team Pld Gd Pts Stenny 33 22 61 ICTFC 32 32 59 Alloa 33 14 50 QotS 33 8 49 🐟 P'Head 32 -10 42 Monty 33 -15 41 E Fife 33 -25 34 Cove 33 -7 31 Accies 33 9 28 Kelty 33 -28 26 You tell them Scott, penalty my

In your opinion, Fine. That’s why we love the game, everyone has one. bc

I don't give a feck if I sound like a broken record. The decision was wrong and on the day it cost us two points. The bottom line is it needs to be addressed by the SFA or the SPFL whoever is the governing body for the referees. We would not hear the end of it had it happened in an old firm derby in a title decider. We were not discriminated against or cheated unless you count Anderson falling as being cheating. We were undone by incompetence. I am not a prophet, that's a hypothetical question about Tuesday, have you seen it yet? Let's all play by the rules then there's no issue if we get a penalty given against us, or for us for that matter. This one really is on the referee and his bosses.

It is now looking unlikely that County will go straight back up to the SPFL this season.
