  1. When Dunfermline win, that will be three defeats in a row for Partick, joining us and Raith in messing things up once in a strong position in the league. We’ve not beaten Dunfermline this season so now is the time to change that. I agree with all the comments above. We need a game plan and a plan B, neither involving hopeful punts up the park. This is only the third time this season we have won two (or more) league games on the trot but there is no better time to put a winning run together. The target should be catching Arbroath so we finish second and have a better chance in give play offs. They have Raith and Partick in their next two games so teams around us will drop points. It is up to us to ensure we don’t drop any.

  2. A good result for us in that it keeps us ahead of Partick who's goal difference has taken a bit of a hammering in the last few days. However, we will be facing opponents on Saturday who are running into some good form and who will have increased confidence. Having, at last, dragged themselves off the bottom of the table, the Pars will be determined not to return there. As has been said before, we will have to be on our very best form and fully committed for the entire 90 minutes if we are going to beat Dunfermline for the first time this season and maintain our recent winning run.

  3. It just shows you how unpredictable football is. When Partick had all their games in hand, I thought they would be up with Killie and Arbroath, but they have dropped points in them all. It shows you that we must be at it on Saturday or the last two wins will be meaningless.

  4. The match against Dunfermline could be all down to desire in the end. Is their desire to stay in the Championship greater than our desire to get out of it? We usually struggle against the teams in the bottom half of the league, so Saturday is the perfect moment to put that right. Hopefully, after the last two wins, we can have a better attendance at the game, we need to create a cup tie atmosphere.

  5. If ever we needed another incentive on Saturday, the fixtures couldn't have been kinder to us. Arbroath v Raith and Killie v Partick, all our rivals play each other, so if we can get a win against the Pars, we could be in a very good position for the playoffs.

  6. There's certainly no easy games in this division. On paper, we might be seen to have the easiest run in, but all of the teams in the bottom 5 are fighting for survival and will put the kind of effort in that Dunfermline showed tonight. Even Morton in 6th place are only 6 points clear of the relegation play-off place. We just have to be up for it every game.

  7. Seems to be doing well tonight.Hughes has always had a good knowledge of the game and knows tactics.He did win us a cup at Inverness more than any other recent Manager has managed since. My point is now with three ex ICT players,Hughes is turning it round and if they play on Saturday like they are playing tonight we better be at our best.

  9. I really hope Billy Dodds has a game plan for the game against Dunfermline, and not just the usual punt the ball up the park. Yogi will have a game plan, and he will have three of our former players in their ranks, Col Donaldson, Liam Polworth and Joe Chalmers, they might have had four, but Owain Von Williams has been released, but I'm sure those three will be fired up. So let's be on it from the first whistle and please please please pass the ball and shoot more!

  10. Don't know why it concerns me that when we finally manage to get a route out of the Championship we usually throw it away. We seem to struggle against the bottom teams in this league and after two lucky scrapes we secured a couple of wins,but let's be honest,in neither game did we flatter.Saturday is a biggie and we better be switched on.

  11. Watching dunfermline tonight play like Brazil has me nervous about Saturday. But we will win the last 5 games to finish second and macgregor will be back to win in the playoffs.

  12. Totally agree,We need to practice passing and pass from the back out. You don't need to be a Rocket Scientists to know high balls to small strikers = no chance of getting the ball. It is that simple. High balls might work if we still had a White or similar up front,but when he was with us he couldn't jump and now he is like a kangaroo with County. We surely must have a game plan, because Yogi is the master tactitian and strategist and he will have Dumfermiline fighting all the way. We need to realise that we have been lucky these last two games and overall we are a shadow of the team we once were. We need to have players who can read the game and take up the right positions to receive passes. Finally, as Chalmers showed, shooting when near the goals is always an option rather that trying to pass it into the net and getting bogged down.

  13. Thankfully for our league position we seem to have found a couple of fortunate results. Unfortunately it's papering over the cracks and keeping Dodds and his Diddy Men in a job.

  14. The players need to get into their heads that when playing Dunfermline, who are bottom, that they will be fighting for their survival in this league, so we need to get into the mindset that we are fighting for promotion through the playoffs. We have struggled against the bottom clubs this season, and this would be a good time to go for our third win on the bounce. We also need to get out of the habit of punting the ball aimlessly up the park. Surely the percentage of unsuccessful attacks or goals leading from this practice must show the coaching staff that it doesn't work. Start on the front foot, close the opposition down and pass the ball and shoot more often, it's not rocket science.

  15. Probably need to get to grips with Thomas and Polworth- they are prominent in the Dunfermline Partick game- creating. Whoever is right back needs to nullify Thomas. Think Dunfermline are shaky at the back.

    • Inverness CT 0-1 Raith Rovers - Report
      Inverness threatened the Raith goal and but for Kevin Dabrowski and his bar they could have been dead and buried at the interval. No score at the break and all to play for in the second half. Vaughan opened the scoring early in the second half and Samuel almost levelled but his shot from distance cannoned away off the post. The crossbar was hit a further twice but the goal would not come. Despite peppering the Raith goal, MotM Dabrowski would not be beaten with a string of saves ranging from brilliant to miraculous.

    • Inverness CT -V- Raith Rovers - Preview
      The great escape coninues on Friday night at the Caledonian Stadium as we host Raith Rovers in a game that will also be screened live on BBC Scotland with Raith trying to cling on to the coat tails of Dundee United and the Caley Jags looking to slither away from the play-off zone. What could possibly go wrong? Savage and Carragher will be joined in the squad by a welcome returnee in Sean McAllister who has returned fit from Everton after about six weeks out. That's a nice wee bonus for Big Dunc. However, he has the wrath from Arbroath after his "tools down" comment in his pre-match interview. As long as he has not got the wrath from Raith. Keep the faith!

    • Queens Park 0-1 Inverness CT - Report
      Massive: Just under 1500 fans rattled around inside the national stadium for the proverbial six-pointer at the bottom of the table with Inverness looking to get out of the play-off place and Queens one point ahead at the start of the game. In a tense first half Cammy Harper scored a stunning free kick after Cillian Sheridan had handled 25 yards out. Boom! That's how it ended despite QP upping their game in the second period as Inverness kept them at bay.

    • Queens Park -V- Inverness CT - Preview
      Hampden Calling: Carragher is now a doubt after feeling his hamstring. Other than that not much has changed apart from Remi Savage, who has not recovered after he got a boot in the face from Cammy Kerr. Apparently Kerr's boot is OK but Savage is suffering from minor concussion and will miss the next couple of games. Maybe that was Kerr ensuring he gets a game this weekend.

    • Inverness CT 2-1 Arbroath - Report
      Smokies Kippered: On a blustery day more akin to AA Milne and Winnie the Pooh, Arbroath and Inverness battled it out to see who would get the final nails hammered into their coffins. Arbroath were in the last chance snug in the last chance saloon, whilst Inverness have one foot in the grave. I don't believe it! Arbroath tried everything, they even took their own wind with them. However, they had Murray, Bird and Slater on from the start but O'Brien missed out. Zak Delaney also started for the Red Lichties. A bright opening spell saw Alex Samuel denied twice inside five minutes. Once by a combination of Max Boruc and his crossbar, the second by Boruc on his own as Samuel got his shot away from inside the box. Wallace Duffy got the goal we deserved on the interval as he drove across the keeper from the right side of the box to put us in ahead at the break. Leighton McIntosh restored parity on the hour as he drilled home from eighteen yards, but Alex Samuel won the points with a late strike to all but relegate ten man Arbroath who had Ricky Little sent off.
