  2. A bit harsh don't you think? You obviously dont like him or his views - but I dont think that gives you the right to tell him to leave the forum. Im sure this is what a forum is all about - a salad bowl of mixed opinions , enriched with debates,arguments and even agreements- so why would you want Alan to leave the forum or anybody else for that matter just because you dont agree with them. Im sure he has his own opinion of your stats but I havent seen him ask you to leave the forum yet. If you read all the posts on here I think you will be fully aware that many dont attend games but does that mean they cannot contribute. Anyway back on topic we've brought in what we could with the resources we have at our disposal and its probably not enough offer a serious challenge to the title but the playoffs are well within our reach.

  3. Truly awful comment to make from a management team that are pure and simply not upto the task. Its down to him to get the tactics , formation and motivation right for every game ,home or away. Absolutely no passion on or off the park and that unfortunately carries over into the stands. Stop looking for excuses and face up to the facts that we were f*****g awful today.

  5. Was surprise by Robertson reacting yet again to the fans behind him in the main stand. After one of many attempted crosses which went wide, a fan uttered his displeasure. Robertson turned, offered the fan to come and do better, shouted that the player managed it in training all week then told the fan to '**** Off'. I don't like fans abusing players, managers etc, but I think the pressure is really getting to Robertson and no wonder. One of the worst teams I can remember seeing, absolutely bollocks at home all season and there are more empty seats around me each week. I really feel for my team as I think the future. Looks really bleak ?

  6. John Robertson...."We've got a problem at home. We've won two, lost three and drawn the rest. Away from him, we've got a small band of fans that get right behind the team but at home they don't seem to do that." There we have it folks.....it's all our fault. WTAF Give us something to get behind and we'll get behind you! But all we see the same abject lifeless performances every other week!!! That's a ridiculous comment to make. Don't think I'll bother turning up in future if I'm only going to be a hindrance to the team! Raging!

  7. I think its fairly obvious to us poor fans sitting through that 90 minutes how poor the coaching is this season last season at least we had Rice this year it is just rank rotten. What does it take for Brad to get dropped his dithering cost us today he is not a central defender and defo not a right back. Lack of leadership from the dugout once again they stand leaning against the dugout like 3 cardboard cutouts. One other thing can the coaches train Brad to be on the pitch side of the lines not the stand sides cause then he is off the pitch DUH!!

  8. I try to be realistic about my expectations and I have enjoyed a lot of the football we have been playing this season. Even when we have failed to win we have had spells where we have dominated, played some good attacking football and created several chances. But not today. Today we were simply dire from start to finish Partick must be about the worst team to have come visiting this season but they were a lot better than us. I can only assume that Tremarco and Donaldson were on the bench because they were not match fit. But to be honest, it looked as though a good number of those who did start were not match fit. Maybe Austin and Rooney are also carrying injuries or not match fit as they were two of the better players in the first half and it seemed bizarre to take them off. Young McDonald had a game to forget and was rightly subbed, but to be fair to him, he got no help from those around him, and no protection from the referee against the physicality of the opposition. Trafford at least offered some energy and urgency when he came on and McCauley added a little bit of much needed attacking flair. Five minutes before the end ,McCauley was announced as the sponsor's MOTM. But he only came on in the 70th minute. I think that rather sums it up!

  9. Getting pretty sick of posting the same comments after almost every home game! That first 45minutes today really was the worst I can remember from an Inverness side. Absolutely pathetic! Why McKay wasn't hooked at half-time instead of Rooney is a complete mystery. The only positives I can take from today are that we learned that 1. McKay isn't a central defender, and 2. He's no a right back either!

  12. Another week another poor home game. Robbo can huff and puff about home fans but weve had 2 wins at home in the league what exactly does he expect? So many things wrong with todays performance a lot of which the manager and coaching staff need to take the blame for and some things the players. Firstly did we scout the opposition? Anyone who's read about Partick under Caldwell knows hes played that formation yet we set out a 442 against them first half and were out of ideas with how to play through midfield. Why when it was clear to see we needed to change it did it take till the second half to make two subs? The substitutions were interesting i think clearly rooney was injured and wasn't tactical to play him ahead of rooney. Although with Donaldson pushing on and far more capable on the ball we'd have been better off playing him at RWB. Taking Mcdonald off disspointed me going 3 at the back could have been a positive attacking decision against a Partick side who weren't offering much going forward. We could have put mccauley on for him and left Chalmers in the middle but no we played the worst Wing back partbership I've ever seen. When the second half started Jamie Mccart was playing as the right centre half thankfully this was corrected by management after he tried cutting back in and nearly lost us possesion but where was the forsight? The final sub could have and should have been for a defender why take Austin off 2 down and chasing the game? Crowds are negative and do pick on certain players; Polworth and White but only due to the fact we know they are capable and should be doing better. Would struggle to give out pass marks to anyone today. Mackay in goals bar maybe coming for the 1st, Mccart sloppy in possession but swept up well at times and i would struggle to mention anyone else.

  15. Poor team selection, poor tactics, poor application and poor, verging on irrational substitutions. The only comfort we can take is that our rivals for that final play off, which appears now to be our only realistic target, fared no better. However, even that final play off place will be beyond us if we continue to play as badly as that. On current form, Brad McKay is not a Championship level player.

  16. You would be hard pressed to see a worse game of football anywhere today . Absolutely shocking no wonder the stands were empty. One team completely played a hapless referee with their time wasting and gamesmanship the other tried to play route one football very badly and could not muster one decent passage of play the whole 90 minutes. Roberston talks of mounting a promtion challenge then delivers this utter garbage .

  20. That's as bad a performance as I can remember. Just when you think we might have turned the corner, we manage to produce a truly woeful performance. I can't remember their keeper making a save. I have said it before, Robbo doesn't have a plan B, and it's obvious now that he doesn't have a plan A either. It was the wrong team selection and wrong tactics. The game was crying out for width and he flooded the midfield with central midfielders, we were so narrow. We were second to every ball and made a poor Partick team look good. And for Robbo to blame the home support is totally unacceptable, give the fans something to shout about and they will react, and to swear at the fan for expressing his opinion is unprofessional. It's very hard to pick a man of the match, the only time we played any decent football was on the lead up to our goal, why couldn't we do that more often? Robbo's subs were baffling today, only he could leave Brad on while others were hooked. Surely we can't play any worse this season, but I wouldn't like bet on it.

  21. If Robertson said that he has gone way down in my estimation. Trying to deflect the blame from himself even though his team selection, tactics and substitutions were horrendous. There was absolutely nothing to get the fans excited about watching that today. Taking on a centre half and defensive midfielder when we are two down hardly helps. Embarrassing comments from the manager.

  26. Have to agree that was the worst performance at home so far. Lost soft goals and never created any chances. Scrambled goal to give us some hope with 12 mins left however you didn't think we could do it. There keeper didn't have a save to make. Very disappointing following good win at Ayr.

  27. Not sure which peed me off the most today - Partick's unsporting behaviour (that's putting it VERY politely - aka dirty, cheating b******s) or the referee or taking Rooney off and leaving Mckay on

  29. A shocker. It was bad enough starting with 4 central midfielders but to then take Trafford on at half time and put Joe Chalmers left midfield was a joke. McCauley should of been the one to come on. Where was Brad Mckay supposed to be playing second half? Our shape was horrendous. Let's hope Tremarco is back soon because Kevin Mchattie was woeful. Robertson got things majorly wrong today.

  33. These myriad little things are beginning to mount up already. One somewhat less little and very significant thing is Nissan's decision to reverse their decision to invest in their Sunderland plant and that will be just the start of it. Ironically, with Sunderland as an example, it will, without doubt, be the overwhelmingly Brexit supporting manufacturing regions who will suffer most. Talk about turkeys voting for Christmas.

  41. Read this great article whist driving ymip Jr round on his paper round this morning. Got goosebumps reading Nick Ross' comments about the noise and scenes after his equaliser. A truly remarkable match which is right up there alongside the Scottish Cup final and semi for me. Would love to think we can relive those scenes at some point in the future but seems a lifetime ago at present.

  47. Like Dundee Utd, Falkirk have also brought a lot in and it looks as though they may have splashed a bit of cash in doing so. Both clubs are also off-loading a lot of players (mostly on loan in Utd's case). Football is a team game and what good managers do is to get the best out of players in the context of their contribution to the team. Rather than showing ambition in the transfer window, it strikes me that Dundee Utd and Falkirk are showing a bit of desperation. If they can meld their new recruits into an effective tight knit unit then it rather begs the question of why they couldn't do it with the players they had previously brought to their respective clubs. More need for better managers than complete new teams in my view. Bringing in 5 or 6 like County and Queens have done maybe shows a bit of genuine ambition. It allows for some targeted strengthening of the first choice XI whilst giving a bit more depth to the squad. Ayr and Dunfermline have both brought in 1 new on a permanent contract and 2 on loan and therefore are much on a par with us in their dealings. On balance, I think our dealings in January have been positive, Time will tell how successful the different strategies will be.

    • Dundee United 1-1 Inverness CT - Report
      Hopes amongst the Caley Jags support were at rock bottom ahead of this one with the threat of relegation looming large. With all hands to the pumps, Shaw, Boyes and Ujdur were brought back into the squad whilst not really 100% fit. Shaw started as did Pepple and Boyes with Billy Mckay, Lawal and Danny Devine dropping to the bench. Cammy Harper was given the Captain's armband today. It's a daunting task going to the lions den to face title favourites but underdog is our preferred tag. Anyway, 252 of them turned up at Tannadice in eternal hope and Duffy heightened the intensity only for Louis Moult to level things up. That's how it ended, a result we would have bitten your hand off before kick off.

    • Inverness CT 1-2 Ayr United - Report
      Having sat through one of the worst games for many a year there is little to hope for now apart from Arbroath to keep losing because we certainly appear to find it difficult to win. We have no game changers in our squad and our manager is playing the wrong type of anti-football to help our cause. Big Dunc thought we were the better team. Pleeeeeaaase, give me a break! We were second to everything and Ayr were always one step ahead of us after the first three minutes. SHOCKER springs to mind.

    • Inverness CT 0-0 Airdrieonians - Report
      These two sides looked as though they could play for the whole of March without scoring. In terms of opportunities, the hosts probably shaded it, but when we did miss the first defender, crosses invariably went behind the incoming strikers. On the one occasion we got on the end of the ball Billy Mckay's flicked header was cleared away from goal by Kanayo Megwa.
      Not the worst 0-0 draw ever, but scoring opportunities were at a premium. Neither keeper was overly troubled and this game had scoreless written all over it given the evidence of the first twenty minutes.

    • Inverness CT -V- Airdrieonians - Preview
      Promoted Airdrie are sitting in fifth place in the table, just below the play-off places with former Caley Jag Nikolay Todorov getting amongst the goals and he will provide a big test for our central defence. We have found Airdrie a difficult proposition at times this season but we did win the last home encounter against them.

    • Morton 0-2 Inverness CT - Report
      What a start for Inverness and Billy Mckay, who answered his abusers from last week by opening the scoring in the second minute, firing into the top corner after an assist from Cammy Harper. Robbie Muirhead looked to respond but Mark Ridgers was equal to his effort in the fifth minute. Ten minutes before the interval Sean McAllister curled in a low free kick from the edge of the box to double our advantage and open his scoring account at Inverness. Plenty of bookings but no further scoring saw Inverness pick up a vital three points in the relegation battle although we still remain in ninth spot but only two points from Dunfermline in fifth.
