v Dundee Utd Jan 2024
Exactly what I said to my wife! Not impressed by Carragher. Too many safe, easy passes that did nothing, and lucky not be booked. But that's not where the problem is. I have a can of 3-IN-ONE that has more penetrative power...

ICTFC Squad Update 21/22/23/
Well, giving someone a free is often a sign of appreciation by a club - not standing in the way of a move that the player wants. With a more business-like hat on, it may be that even a small fee might have scuppered the deal, in which case we'd have been paying his wages until the summer.

Takes that long to process the queue of hopefuls at the stadium?

Ayr do Jan 2024
BBC: "David Carson (Inverness CT) is shown the yellow card for a bad foul.". Back to full fitness, then

Liam Dalgarno
Caledonian Thistle comes off the tongue better than Thistle Caledonian. But I wouldn't be surprised if Jock McDonald was behind the ordering in the company name!

Why the need to change it? Plenty of companies are registered under names which are mostly or wholly unrelated to their trading names or brands.

Queens Park v ICTFC
Waited until we had put away four goals before making the subs. A lesson learned from last week, I think - don't disrupt the team if they're playing well.

ICT v Raith: 2 December
That would only work if the ball was on the ground. And you can't have one law for when it's on the ground and one for when it's in the air! There are no easy answers - no cheap ones anyway.

ICT v Raith: 2 December
I wondered at the time if it was wise taking off Mckay and Wotherspoon. I know they are not defence, but maybe it upset the way the whole team was playing?

Inverness CT -V- Cowdenbeath - Scottish Cup
2-0 - Wotherspoon & Mckay. Never in doubt Correction - Carson replaced Duffy on 70, and Lodovica replaced Longstaff on 90+1.

Inverness CT -V- Cowdenbeath - Scottish Cup
The cavalry has arrived - Wotherspoon, Lodovica and Mckay. Brooks, Duffy and Sheridan off.

Inverness CT -V- Cowdenbeath - Scottish Cup
Don't want to peak too soon. Saving ourselves for the final.

Inverness CT -V- Cowdenbeath - Scottish Cup
HT 0-0. BBC says we've had one shot in the first half, which appears to have been in the 14th minute. I am sure that Big Dunc will (have to) be restrained, as usual

We'd surely hope for Dodds. And then we'd pass them in opposite directions after the end of the season.

Ayr Utd Nov 2023
I've just wakened up from dreaming that it was 3-0 at half-time

Wedding
We were in Arisaig for a weekend last year. There was an Americana festival on - not why we were there. Walking back down to the hotel, we came across one of the locals, who had a face that only his Mum could love, sitting at the gate into his garden, checking out everyone going past, and picking on a banjo. My wife has never seen the film, so she had no idea what I meant when I said "<expletive deleted>! We've just stumbled into Deliverance."

v Dundee Utd (a) Nov23
BBC website suggests 4-4-1-1. Boyes at right back and Harper left back.

v Dundee Utd (a) Nov23
Anyone else notice that the topic header says "Nov23"? I suppose that's correct, but it gives us a choice of 30 days

v Airdrie (h) Oct28th
In 7 minutes, the possession stat has changed to 53-47 in Airdrie's favour. If correct, which I doubt, Airdrie had the ball for just over 30 seconds in that 7 minutes Anyway, it looks pretty even now. Oh, hang on, incoming..... 1-0 (Wotherspoon)

Morton Away Oct23 ***GAME OFF***
Yes, it has been discovered that the water in the aquifer under the pitch is now superheated beyond normal boiling temperature. Possibly due to friction resulting from underground slippage along the Great Glen fault. IHE is investigating.

2-3, and 10+ minutes to go. How would Alex Ferguson describe the situation?
