...the goal that secures ICT's SPL status? Saw tokleyisvictorious mention on another thread "the goal that keeps us up", so, (since I'm bored), decided to start a thread to get predictions on which player will get the goal that keeps us up.

I wasn't sure how that'd work either. Suppose the most obvious way is if the 30 "regional" teams are divided up on a season to season basis, so each year the teams are split into 3 regions based on location. Would probably mean every now and then a side on the "border" of 2 regions moves from one region to another, but on the whole it'd probably work.

Not a bad idea, but what happens if Ross County finish bottom of the Championship and lose to Berwick in the play-off final? What regional league do Ross County go into? The North would still have it's 10 teams since no one was promoted and obviously being relegated to the Central East league defeats the purpose of a regional system.

Just looked at the fixture list on the BBC site and according to that if we win at Ibrox (optimistic, but you never know) and beat Killie Falkirk will be 4 points adrift at the bottom by the time they play next in the league - against us

Particularly liked that comment. Not quite how I remember people's opinion on his return

Robbo, personally was disappointed not to see you take over, but as you've said all ready TB has had a good start and hopefully the right job will come up for you soon. On the Inverness job, given the tight time scale with the transfer window closing so soon after a new manager was named, did you have players lined up to come in if you had be appointed? Obviously you're not likely to mention any names on here, was just curious if you had any "done deals" on the condition of you getting the job

Robbo As a striker yourself and someone who sees plenty of our games, what do you think is potentially our best strike partnership is from what you've seen of our front players?

Lucky we're playing Celtic then

I thought he'd predicted a win for us too. Just got the scores the wrong way round. Been changed now to a Celtic victory, so we might win

The one thing that could tempt someone like Smith is what has been mentioned before by other people. He'd be watched every week by the Scotland assistant manager

At least we have some positives from today. Came back twice, which shows the spirit is there in the squad, got goals, set pieces sounded dangerous, Vigurs, Esson and Mihadjuks in particular seemed to have good games. First time in ages listening to a game that there was excitement involved and I actually believed we could get something after going behind

Surely that would just encourage more of the punt the ball as far as you can tactics

If it is true then hopefully he'll make a bigger impact than the last player to come to TCS from Gillingham. Wouldn't be much of a feat to be fair

All the best wherever you end up next Barry. True ICT legend. Hopefully won't be too long before you're back here at the club in another role :018: ;) :thumb04:

;) :D :thumb04: :018: :015: No point posting what I was going to. You've pretty much said it all there

True, he has scored a couple coming in from the left and hitting it with his right, but is it worth sacrificing natural width on either side for the sake of a couple of goals a season from that situation?

Another point on Jamie Duff playing out of position - I remember in his first start (I think against Hamilton) when he had a solid game and looked good, but the one big mistake he made led to the goal people were saying about showing faith in him and giving him a run to boost his confidence and get over mistake. How is being played out of position and being run ragged, due to inexperience and not being a natural right back, going to effect his confidence? Especially considering when Tokely is back he'll most likely be back on the bench again

Cowie and Imrie will cut back inside though because they're on the wrong side. Maybe if they were played with Cowie on the right and Imrie on the left they'd be more inclined to stay in wider positions because they'd be more comfortable on that side. Then again, Brew knows what he's doing. It's worked a treat so far this season at home, so maybe best leaving it as it is

Brewster, Mourinho First thought when I opened this thread was how quickly will someone say Brewster? Surprised I had to scroll that far to see it Aside from Mourinho, it's pretty obvious a big, reliable central defender and some experience up front are needed
