Goals here - Yaaaaaaaaasssssss

What a relief that game was. We still didn't create a great deal in terms of clear-cut chances, but the defence held its shape better and the midfielders closed down much more effectively than in recent games, and we never allowed Motherwell to get a grip of the game at any point. The original penalty decision looked a clear-cut handball, and fair play to Craig Thomson for ordering the retake for encroachment, which most teams do and expect to get away with. The Storey goal looked like it had wrongfooted Ripley horribly at the time, and apparently, according to Storey on Twitter, it was a big deflection. The Vigurs goal, however, was sublime - one of those where you could see him shaping to hit it as it fell to him, and it looked like it went in in slow motion. Vigurs didn't have a great game otherwise; Polworth, on the other hand, was superb from start to finish: fighting for everything, getting all over the park, and distributing the ball really well. He had a very good game earlier in the season against St Johnstone but since then seems to have been pretty inconsistent; hopefully him getting a run in the team has built his confidence and he might be able to establish himself as a first pick even when we have a fully fit squad. Tremarco was another player who has looked uncertain recently but who had an excellent game, and on the other side Lewis Horner looked fairly solid and didn't stop running all day. In the longer term, the most important thing about this game is that it has put more points on the board and stopped a potentially morale-sapping slump. There was nothing from today's game to suggest that we are likely to go on the sort of run that will get us back into the sort of position we were at the turn of the year last season; at the same time, I'm less worried than I was that we might end up getting cut adrift, with, say, United and maybe Partick. Yay for mediocrity.

Great summary Maryhill, especially yer final paragraph. It was an important win for various reasons as you rightly pointed out, but we are still well short of resting on our laurels.

Looked better from behind the goal especially after a Highland feckin march to get there !

Well done RossP for posting this which is as much as we will get from the BBC! Vigers goal superb

Saturday 7 Nov 2015 Scottish Premier A Rooney (Aberdeen 2 - Dundee Utd 0) J Hayes (Aberdeen 2 - Dundee Utd 0) Dafabet Welsh Premier J Oswell (Haverfordwest 0 - Newtown1) Highland League D Gillespie (Deveronvale 0 - Brora R 2) D Khutsishvili (Nairn 3 - Forres 1) C MacMillan (2 pens) (Rothes 2 - Buckie 2) D Wyness (Rothes 2 - Buckie 2)

you've got to take your hats off to the guys: Despite continuing to be dealt a shabby hand, they can still pull out a result like that! Rollercoaster of a season.

Hope the injuries to Christie and Storey aren't bad ones. We've had more than our fair share of bad luck this season without adding two more of our best players to the injury list.

Really good result by the sound of things...Well done ICT Just hope the injuries to Christie, Lopez and Storey aren't serious, besides we will be really struggling to get a bench next time out.

Stupendous result, particularly given the circumstances!

Made in Dungwall ?

What a week for integrity? Oldco Rangers confirmed as involved in massive multi million pound tax evasion. Rangers newco to retain various titles obtained by Oldco Rangers during the dark years (subject to possible appeal in the tax case but if not, SFA revisiting its rules to check if massive tax evasion is a reason to take a sporting integrity decision). Yogi disciplined for being honest.

Well known ICT supporter on this very bridge

To be fair to the players, I notice some fans asking them on Twitter when they are due back and normally are very responsive with it - latest being Jordan Roberts who hopes to be back soon. I think it's unfair to blame the club for 'lack of information' when maybe the players themselves want to keep things under wraps. Yes football is an 'entertainment' however the players are also people like you and I. They will be ready when they're ready etc.

Great result in what was really a must win game as others have said hope injuries to Christie and Storey are not too serious the plus side is two weeks to next game
