Shocking display of defeatism from some ICT fans. Bring on the Celtic!

I don't condone the 'scuffles' that took place. They were childish, immature and frankly embarrassing. From the footage I have seen, powder puff handbags at dawn stuff by daft laddies. I do wonder whether Police Scotland should be directing their somewhat stretched resources elsewhere.

No, it tells you that Chick Young is a complete roaster, but you probably knew that anyway. Now have you heard the one about Charles mixing up a team from Annan with one from Midlothian

Morayshire Police have just distributed a phottie of the hoolies.

it was an unfortunate and untimely bounce of the ball. nothing to do with OFW or Vigz....although its not at all surprising that some on here continue to victimise the lad! FWIW...WE ACTUALLY WON, GUYS!!!!! ffs!!!

Agreed and the fact that the rules on the tournament permit the use of two goalkeepers and to allow the fans to assist by pulling down their players in the box when playing in Glasgow against Celtic is an added bonus.

Here here. Let's remember we are the only team in Scotland to take points off them.

If we are going to stay up we will need a solid defence and clean sheets. Makeshift line ups just aren't going to cut it, even if it just for a month. Need to bring in a commanding central defender for the rest of the season, one who is better than the ones we currently have available. Will cost, I know, but relegation will cost more.

We played a back four all game. Polworth was at right back.

I have a strong suspicion this will me moved to the Sunday midday. Pretty annoyed at punters on here writing off our chances. It's celtic we're playing, not Barcelona.

Some contrasting injury news today................ On the plus side However

i watched him pre-season, and thought he was promising. but since his fortunes have foundered, i see him looking less interested and sluggish and stroppy. watched him in a development game, when i was shouting for him to get a chance in the first team as a seconf striker, but he again displayed the same characteristics - stooped shoulders, head down, giving up on (possibly not lost, afterall) causes, unhappy when ball isnt exactly where he wants it. in pre-match warm-ups looks the same as well, reminds me of a teenager who is somewhere he doesn't want to be. this may not be the case at all, it could just be a body language thing that i'm reading completely wrong, but that's the impression i get from him. and it was visable throughout Saturday's game.

or you could just use the main menu above and navigate to TEAM > FIXTURES which will take you here : http://caleythistleonline.com/team/fixtures.html/ where - for the last 10+ years - we normally have the lineups and match stats, including crowd figure when released, within a few minutes of the game being over. ...

Having watched the highlights it looks as though Doumbouya lifted his foot out of the way to let the ball through. He may got a slight touch which might have affected the path of the ball. He looks more to blame than Fon Williams. In any case, once a free kick is played short surely the players in the wall should be rushing forward to block. Interesting to note that in all 3 of Doumbouya's opportunities shown, it was Doran who provided a very precise ball into him. Doran does not seem to have recovered the pace he had prior to his long term injury, but he has real vision and is still going to be a key player for us for the rest of the season. I think we will create a lot of chances if we play with Cole and Doran in the side.

The point of a wall is to block shots below head height on one side of the goal (near-post). Only a curler of Roberto Carlos proportions should be able to bend into the near post bottom corner. Granted, the ball was shifted a couple of feet in the free kick routine, but the shot had virtually no bend on it and was still a yard inside the near post - watch the BBC highlights, the angle is perfect to see this. So, a wall won't prevent a bobble, but should stop it ever getting near the goal if mis-hit towards the near post.

his link-up play was good, yes, but its his attitude, or apparent attitude that annoys me. he comes across as a petulant child

The 'Dug' was a far better proposition to score ahead of Boden....................

I was disappointed when I herd the draw but after a bit of thought and as others have said the club will make a lot of money out of this tie and we always raise our game against Celtic

He could have caught it in his cap

Yes it could be said that Dougal is quite laughable at times!!

Aye very good Jim Calder would have kept that out and he's 56 Dougal

I doubt that very much. A cup visit to Parkhead would have been your club's biggest match this century whereas such trips are routine for us at least twice a season. The cash generated is a welcome wee windfall for us which might enable us to recruit one additional player whereas that sum would transform your finances for this season and next. An indication of how far we've come and how far you haven't.

Who else feckin hates Sir smarterse English glory hunting wrinkled owd **** ?

We beat the Staigo 8-4 in the domino match in the Ionic Bar. Their captain threw the board on the floor when he was beaten. Shocking scenes.

Currently 31 out of 32 votes have gone to the excellent Cole for MotM. In the other vote, Vigurs must have a login for CTO and voted for himself

Looks like it will be forfar going up tbh but its not over yet. Anyway hope yous enjoyed your day in the CITY and a terraced ground for once instead and was fine to hear a foreign language in elgin all the best for the premier league surely things can only get better for you lot

Was that our fans or just the locals doing their Saturday shop.

Disagree with some of the posts above - we bossed long spells in the game and could have won by a few. Elgin only had very few chances...although they v nearly equalised at the death! Cole was absolutely outstanding today - everything dangerous went through him and he also did defensive duties. Defence was solid - Polworth did OK in an unfamiliar position, but got megged a couple of times. Vigurs was frustrating as ever: Guilty for the goal, great free kick off the bar, decent spells and lazy spells. Boden is nowhere near it - even against lower league opposition, he looked dreadful. Anier shoild have started. Banana skin avoided!

Can't agree with previous post. Doumbaya may have scored, but guilty of missing 2 gilt edged chances prior to scoring. He was ineffective and any headers he wins, he has no control or no idea where ball is going. Boden held up ball well IMO and brought others into game, but he provided little in way of goal threat. Overall I was disappointed in the performance, and didn't see any reason to be optimistic for the coming weeks. On another note, the young lads can provide fantastic vocal backing for the team and am generally all for them, but please stop with the flares, and the need to run 50 yards to a segregation fence for a bit of posturing. We as a club are better than that and don't need that kind of behaviour.

Disgraceful with the silly tussle at the underpass embarrasing for us and you lot but looks like theyll have to chase them down at school by looks of it

Sorry....I forgot that some people no longer think I'm entitled to an opinion as a fan these days.

I still rate OFW despite him not being in the best of form just now and I appreciate that you feel it your role to defend and talk up the club and it's employees. However, to say that no 'keeper could have reacted to save that poorly executed shot is just ridiculous. The sun may or may not have been in his eyes but it was a clear goalkeeping error. In the end we recovered from that early reverse and won more comfortably than the scoreline suggests. No harm done in the end but it does no harm being prepared to acknowledge shortcomings and hopefully learn from them.

Even without the sun...it took a bobble and then bounced over him. Not sure any keeper could have reacted to save it.

Scarlet... crowd figures in BBC match reports aren't perhaps in the most prominent place. You need to go down to the bottom of the main report and shift the black panel from "Match Stats" to "Line Ups" on the left by clicking on the latter. You will then find the attendance at the very bottom, below the referee's name.

Maybe you can point me to the bit in the handbook that says you have to be publicly critical or questioning in order to qualify as a fan? I have no issue with you disagreeing with me, but as you've not picked up on others making the same point then it seems that your motivation for comment has more to do with my being involved at the club than any genuine need to express disagreement with my view. In short....you're being a dick.
