Scottish Cup 2015 - Semi-finals
Where is The Park Bar please?

Europa Places
My only wish for now is that we win another game before the end of the season. I know I will get ripped to shreads for this but I am getting very frustrated at the way we are playing, the team selection and the complete lack of information about players contracts. I know we are third and in a semi-final but it could be so much more.

Scottish Cup 2015 - Semi-finals
Just a wee note to say that a pub/micro brewery on Cathcart Rd called Clockwork Brewery is taking bookings for coaches for before the game. I can't say I know anything about the place it has come to me second hand.

Travel for Scottish Cup Semi
I may be wrong here, I often am, but when we reached our first League Cup semi final a couple of seasons back a lot of us were saying all semi finals should be at Hampden when they announced Easter Road. I am starting to find this "They all hate us" mentality getting tedious and think we are forgetting or overlooking what a great achievement this is and instead of getting excited, some, are wallowing in self pity. The decision is made, Sunday 19th April 2015 at Hampden Park. Let's start enjoying the build up and encourage people to get there and get behind the team and let ICT do what they do best, beat the odds and shock Scottish football.

Travel for Scottish Cup Semi
I think we all have to careful here or we are going to get a reputation as whingers. We all know that if we progress to semi's the games are going to be televised and times are not going to suit us. What would we prefer, getting to latter rounds of cups or the team getting knocked out early to save us all the hassle of travel inconvenience. We all know T.V companies rule our game and have done for a long long time and things won't change because ICT are getting to SF and Finals. I will have to take 2 nightshifts off and find a kennels for our dogs but I would rather do that than think about losing a late goal at St Mirren and being knocked out in our first cup game.

Shifty Ciftci
Just when I thought Dundee Utd could not sink any lower McNamara comes out with this utter rubbish. Deny, deflect, accuse and lie. This should be their club moto.

Contract Situation
I believe Dave the Rave is training to be a plumber so he has a career after football so is already sorting himself out. He has got to be one of our most consistent performers and a two year deal is the least he deserves in my opinion.

PITCH INSPECTION GAME OFF
Just to clarify the high tide was due at 13:30 and was predicted to be 2nd highest of the year so far. Happy now?

PITCH INSPECTION GAME OFF
There is one answer to your question and that is finances. I don't understand all this "The club should do this" The club should have done that". The weather has caused the postponement and it happens. If anyone thinks the club did not want the game played today, take a look at yourselves. The position of the ground makes drainage difficult at certain times (tides). Those saying it's not raining now what would you prefer, a game postponed before people set off for the game or waiting just in case things improve only to find at 14:00 the pitch is unplayable. It's March, it's the North of Scotland and the ground is next to a tide driven body of water. These things happen and the club can do very little to stop it.

Ex-ICT players' news
Always a gentleman whenever I met him. Loved his time at ICT and always talked highly of the club and the fans. Sad when anyone has to cut short a career because of injury but when it's someone you know it hits home what a short career a footballer can have. I wish him well in whatever he does in the future.

Shifty Ciftci
I didn't think I would ever say this but I hope Celtic win their next three games all 6-0 I despise this Dundee Utd set up more than the old firm. From a chairman who is a hypocrit to a manager who encourages cheating to players who are thugs and cheats(not just Ciftci but Paton, Connelly, Dillon etc.) and some of their fans who are so blinkered against anything negative about their club they cannot see what is in front of them to others that actually revel in the way the team cheat.

Scotland supporters bus
Try the Highland Tartan Army. I think they have a web site.

Raith Rovers Game Team
I may be in a minority of one but I actually think that Esson is the better of our two very capable 'keepers. I don't think there is much between them as straight forward keepers but within the teams defensive unit Deano's style of keeping works better and the goals we've lost since he's been out, I think, show this. As a back 5 we are better with Brill.

Dundee's Debt
I think this is the sort of thing that was being said before their most recent administration along with " We have no bank debt." As caleyboy says debt is debt.

Dundee's Debt
How can a company, organisation or football club that has been in administration twice in recent years, be allowed to be over £3m n debt. They are playing a very dangerous game as another administration would surely mean the end.

Inverness CT - V - Kilmarnock Matchday Thread
Killie are a different side under Locke. They have more fight and are better organised. We could analyse each goal we conceded and say we should have done better, but you get games like this. We didn't create many clear cut chances but still scored 3 goals. The one thing I would say is the defence is more solid with Deano between the sticks.

Do You Want County Relegated ?
Because of the ridiculous boycott of the TCS by their sad excuse for fans and their complete envy of everything ICT do I hope they go down. And on a serious note they could keep dropping as the infrastructure of the club is as solid as diahhroea, which, strangely enough, is how I view their fans.

ICT: The Knowledge
Proctor might be in the mix too I would count Davies Proctor well out of it. He started a lot of games under a few managers.

Is it Williams and Devine at Chester.

Communication by the club
I do think this is a wind up! I don't care about the trivia that is talked about but I would like to know about Brill & Forans injuries. I would like the club to tell me our game against Celtic has a new kick off time. I don't think that is too much to ask?
-
Contract Situation
Nothing really new. I would like to think everything said has been ongoing for a while. With the clubs wages being what they are I still think it's dangerous to leave it this late in a players contract to start to tie them down. Players with no previous thought of leaving could be turned with the carrot of more money if clubs now approach them.

Plastic Whistle
I can see the drama now with Gollum and his vanishing spray. Hi will be brandishing it as if it were a light sabre and use it for the most dramatic effect possible. Could the spray be used on the ref.
