With regards to Phillip Roberts yesterday. I know he gave the ball away alot (as did A. Shinnie and Doran and others) but his positioning and space awareness infront of Ryan McGowan stopped one of Hearts biggest form of attack getting into the game. I'm sure T.V coverage won't show this side of the game but from the Main Stand it was obvious a job he had been given. The romour about sickness in the side could answer alot of questions about some players (Foran spent most of the last 5 mins not moving stood with his hands on his hips). The old saying of " The sign of a good side is getting something from a game you don't play well in" very much applies to yesterday. Last season we would have lost that game.

Not sure but thought we had games against Motherwell at home and Celtic and Aberdeen away before thinking about C*unty.

The SFA keep getting mentioned on this thread but I thought this was the League Cup and under the juristiction of Mr Longmuir and co. I cannot understand why the ill feeling about Easter Road. If we were playing Celtic at Hampden (less than two miles between the grounds) would we object. Also this is not news as the SFL said only one semi would be at Hampden. Don yer kilts and lets enjoy another historical day in the short but brilliant history of the Highlands number 1 club.

Just a rumour at this time but BBC (who have the rights to show one game per round) are trying to negotiate for the Celtic v St Mirren game for Sunday 27th with a 14:00 kick off thus leaving us for Saturday with no live coverage. As I say only a rumour but it comes from the same source that told me about the C*unty cup game 24hrs before it was announced

From what I can gather the cost of hiring Hampden for the SFL is very high and it is only cost effective if 30,000 plus attend. Unless it is a special match (Killie v. Ayr or Hibs v Hearts)any games without the OF it is more cost effective to use a ground outwith Hampden. With Hearts drawing crowds in excess of 11,000 for league games and more going to a cup semi-final Easter Road is the only possible venue crowd wise IMHO

Rumour from Dingwall is Saturday 1st with a 12:15 k.o live on BBC

Taking hundreds of supporters to away matches would be fantastic but I would much prefer the fans to turn up for home games so the club can get the financial benefit. We have so-called fans who, although living in the Highlands, only go to away games at places like the OF and Hearts. With the cost of travel, entrance cost and money spent on the day they could attend two home games. The club has a brilliant support from the central belt and even further south that attend away games because it is far cheaper and easier to get to than home games, but for Highland based fans home games should be the priority. I know people chose how to spend their money but the our club need the financial support.

Before the game I would have taken a point so not too disappointed with the result dispite the ending. Why do people think that if we win on Wednesday we will go to Hampden. I'm pretty sure only semi-finals with OF involvement are played at Hampden in the league cup. Fir Park and Tynecastle have been used for semi's in recent years.

If I remember rightly when this was discussed last year a lot of the posts were disbelieving of the survey but every point questioned e.g ticket price, food etc., was proved correct. So let the doubts begin!

With our home games against Hearts and Motherwell changed for ESPN and Sky it certainly looks like the T.V companies see entertainment value from covering our matches. Friends and family who only ever saw us, and most other teams, against the O.F on T.V cannot believe how entertaining SPL games covered without Celtic are. Are we seeing a new dawn in Scottish football?

I keep hoping there will be another statement from Kenny Cameron to say someone has hacked into his media account and the statement is not his. I purchased my two season tickets as normal and was going to sponser a player for the first time for this season on the back of Kenny's statement and the clubs vote against the newco but at this time the new statement has me thinking again.
