The problem that all Premiership clubs have if they get relegated, at least one of Hibs, Hearts and another team I forget the name of, will still be in the Championship. Plus the other teams down there have financial benefit of these 3 visiting this year. Going down this season could mean a long time trying to get back up.

What happened yesterday were there no entrants this week?

Maybe something to do with the pitch being watered at half time, although I think it would have added to the entertainment avoiding the sprinklers.

A lot of talk about getting Billy and Shinnie on new contracts and after this start you've got to include Marley, Tansey, Josh and Dave the Rave in trying to get them signed up too.

All got the letter 'S' in their name. Wow that was easy.

I'm available and would be delighted to go.

The advert covering the away dugout is quite annoying . A lot of fun used to be had watching the antics of staff and subs reactions to decisions and comments shouted by ICT fans.

I hope the humble pie I am eating at the moment is big enough to last me to the end of the season. Yesterday's performance was as good as I've seen for a long time. Solid, effective and at times very pleasing on the eye. The fact that 4 different M.O.M's have been given in different quaters of the media shows it was impressive all round. Mmm I'm hungry for more!! 

Hull showed that £3m is nothing to any EPL team and they would pay this for a prospect. Ryan has the best sort of advisors close to him and I am sure everything that is best for Ryan and the club will be done.

Oh ffs.

Why don't we just create a new forum where everybody can go and slag off the previous poster.

That's just stupid. How could anybody with any sense post something like this.

I think the game has been covers by most so just a couple of points. First of all how quickly can the referee's go on strike please? Plus what was going on in the Supporters bar before the game. There were so many drunk Dundee fans in there I think they may have to rethink the away supporter rule.

I don't think anyone wants Hughes to fail. I have met Yogi on numerous occasions , before and since he became the manager, and I like him a lot finding him knowledgeable, funny and interesting. I'm just not convinced by the tactics he wants to play but hope above hope that he's right and I'm totally wrong and I think a lot of people feel the same.

God I'm starting to sound like a happy clapper but we have a management " team " and it's refreshing to hear another voice and take on things.

HT: 1-0

FT: 2-0

1st: Mckay

Time: 12mins

Very pleased with the result. By all accounts a good performance as well. I hope I am proved very long with some of my previous thoughts and more of this kind of thing will go along way.

First season opener I've missed for over 10 years but for some reason I feel really optimistic about this game. 3-1 to the Caley Jags.

I've heard Oscar Pistorious has sacked his legal team and hired Celtiic. This way you can lose both legs and still win. (I'll get my coat)

If anyone has read any of my posts about Yogi you may be surprised by my take on this.

I think his interviews can come over very differently when written down than in the way it was actually said. It's hard to show a smile or a tongue in cheek remark that has been implied when in the written press.

Let's now wait a week and find the SPFL will change the Celtic game again now they are back in the CL.

See our home game against Celtic has been moved again to 12:15 on Sunday 24th August.

One of the muirfield mills guys is related to Liam Brady

Brady no longer at Arsenal.

If it is not an exceptional amount of money we would be crazy to let him go at this time.

You never want to read too much into friendlies but the way we've played in the games I have seen gives me real cause for concern. If this was last season I would be more confident of us somehow finding a winning goal to grab a win but I just don't see where that is coming from right now. Our build up play is so slow and negative it gives opposition players plenty of time to get in behind the ball and block our route to goal. We don' have players that can glide past opponents like Andrew Shinnie and we rely on quick breaks and balls into space for players to chase. We've stopped doing that and look significantly poorer for it.

I'd take a draw and be pretty happy with that at the minute. Is Draper injured / suspended by the way?

Drapes had a stomach strain but was getting fitness tests at half time on Saturday

I usually work overtime and take time off in lieu for games and have only missed 3 in 3 seasons but I am rostered to work Saturday and will not be asking for the time off. Like another poster on another thread, I will save my time and money.

2nd to 12th. Don't care.
