^^^ Voted for Brexit IMO.

£30 is a shocking price and £25 for the North Stand isn't much better. If we break 4,000 for this game we'll be doing well.

We had won the previous two games 5 - 1 and 7 - 0 with Draper on the bench. No real reason to change a team that's turned in those results.

What a shambles of an article. Key man - Owain Fon Williams!? F'cking hell. Anyway, I expect we'll hear a lot about how badly we treated John Hughes this season so get used to that. Perhaps the worst thing in that whole piece is his prediction that Aberdeen will finish 4th.

Needs to play more Taylor Swift IMO.

These comments are meant to wind up 'Rangers' fans although there could well be an element of truth in them as well. Not sure we can seriously expect Brown to consider ICT as one of their nearest title challengers TBH.

El Bakhtaoui heading to Dundee. I wonder if this was who Richie was after but then we were beaten by Dundee after they lost Hemmings last week?

Sportsound and Sportscene are utterly dreadful. The ICT highlights may not be the best (they are good I should point out) but they are infinitely preferable to the garbage we get on a Sunday night. I'd happily pay £15 a season to get reasonable quality highlights rather than put up with the drivel served to us by BBC Scotland.

BT decided to cover one of the Old Firm for a change? Surprising move that one.

Has a decision been made? Not seen anything reported anywhere.

Perhaps but I like his honesty. Fans don't necessarily need to know names of the targets just that the club is after new faces something we often aren't really told about or, in some cases, we blurt out names then miss out on them making us look a bit daft in the process. There might have been a wee hiccup in securing any deal by Thursday as planned. Main thing is it's encouraging to hear that our manager is still looking around to strengthen and keeping fans in the loop as much as they can realistically expect to be.

Foran had said he hoped to have two new faces in with one arriving on Thursday. Didn't say much more than that.

The League Cup is part of the domestic Scottish football season. The season is underway albeit not for every side in the country so I can't see how these are pre season matches. It's not really a massive issue TBH anyway. A 5 - 1 win over a Dunfermline side which posed a real banana skin is an excellent result.

Good start to the game from us in the opening few minutes before Dunfermline took over. I can't recall too many clear cut chances for them but they had us hemmed in and if it weren't for some wasteful crossing they might have grabbed a goal before we opened the scoring. Cracking finish from Vigurs and his free kick for our second was made even better due to it thumping the bar on the way in. Disappointing goal for us to lose in between those strikes. We didn't look to sharp at the back for large parts of the first half with some dangerous balls played in and around or own box and we struggled to clear the balls at times. Our inability to clear a corner led to the Pars equaliser when the ball found its way out to Higginbotham and he, for once, put in a decent cross for Greggan to thunder into the net. Decent goal. In the second half we started to dominate a lot more but Dunfermline were still getting in behind us a fair bit, especially behind our full backs. We appeared to play with quite a high defensive line and both Tremarco and Raven were pushed quite far up and Dunfermline were sending quite a few neat passes in behind them to attack. On a couple of occasions the Pars player who got in behind our full backs was the furthest man forward and he had no one in the box to cross to. Bit of a lucky third goal when King cut inside from the left flank and his shot was deflected over Hutton and our fourth also came from the wing when Tremarco (I think) crossed for Vigurs to complete his perfect hat trick with a header. Tansey had a long range effort strike the bottom of the post before Tremarco then bagged number five when he followed up a Tansey free kick which also hit the post but rebounded out and struck Tremarco in the face and ended up in the goal Good performances again from the likes of Mulraney and McNaughton. King drifted in and out of the game but at times we were too open (something Foran said after the match) and Dunfermline, had they perhaps found a better ball in the final third, might have nabbed more than just the one goal they did get. At times there is a lot of space in behind our full backs for teams to exploit but hopefully we can sort these kinds of things out in the next couple of weeks. Certainly a lot to be encouraged about.

1. ICT. 2. - 12. Who cares.

I would say that Meekings is first choice but for as long as he is out and McNaughton is playing well he wouldn't be guaranteed to walk back into the side. Only criticism I have of McNaughton to date is that his passing is a wee bit poor out of defence but his reading of the game is superb and at 33 he is by no means done. Could be a very shrewd signing indeed. Delighted to have him.

Any idea idea a simple print your own ticket at home would be to implement? I guess it would need to generate some kind of unique barcode which could be scanned at the turnstile?

Yes but you can also buy your tickets online and have them posted to you (ICT do this to be fair), collect them from a fast ticket machine, buy them online and get them at a fast ticket machine or buy them online and print them off at home. I know the club aren't flush with money but maybe they could look at one of those options to help out supporters? People want things made as easy as possible for them so small hindrance or not a number of folk will be put off by this.

Why do people think we need to strengthen the CB area? Meekings and Warren are first choice and we have others who can play there. Anyone who does sign will just be back up and we can't afford to have dead money for players who aren't realistically going to be starting when other areas of the team are more likely to be a priority.

So home and away fans will be in the same queue for card payments?

Sneckboy was John Hughes.
