If we can get back to games from the start of next season then I will renew although I would like to think there will be some discount for ST holders who will, for an entire season, have paid 50% more per game than "walk up" punters. If there is any streaming involved next season then there is no chance I will renew my ST. I will just purchase games on a math by match basis.

We had an encouraging opening 30 minutes against Hearts but everything after that has been absolutely abysmal. We are sleepwalking towards relegation. I would not be at all surprised if Buckie put us out of the Scottish Cup. We have already had a stupid run of games and we play Saturday / Tuesday or Wednesday for all of March I think. Our squad isn't the biggest and the guys we do have available will be absolutely burst. A "new" manager trying to instil his philosophy into players who are clearly struggling with it when we don't have the time to adapt to this kind of change and he can't bring in players who can play that way. It has all the hallmarks of another chapter in the Inverness CT banter years.

Feel like we are sleep walking towards relegation at the minute. Depressing stuff.

Horrendous defending.

Nice run by MacGregor to create the space for Toddy. Can't believe the difference in stream quality between what we get and what Alloa offer. Staggering.

He has been in the past.

Probably got that from TWS scouting report that was prepared for them ahead of the game

Hard not to notice that McCann persisted with trying to play it out from the back despite 1) the players really not looking comfortable with it; and 2) Alloa, like Dundee, cottoning on to this and press us high up the pitch making things even more uncomfortable. Very strange that McCann didn't seem to make any changes in response to this. I could hear Peter Grant over the stream (or a member of his coaching staff) telling his players to push right up on us. Hard to believe McCann couldn't also hear this. Highlights from Alloa are here BTW.

I see Raith have confirmed the PCA. Of course the question now is do we play Keatings against Raith Rovers in the upcoming double header?

I'll choose to believe that you are being sincere. If however you do feel that any posts on here break any of the site rules you can, of course, report that post.

No one says you aren't entitled to an opinion. No one is picking on you. No one is ganging up on you. No one is trying to drive you away from the forum.

Keatings allegedly signing a PCA with Raith Rovers.

That video of the first goal does nothing to dispel my feeling that Welsh defended poorly by losing Anderson. You can see Welsh tracking back but he comes fixated on the ball and Anderson runs in behind him into space ahead of Devine (I think) where he is picked out. Not the first time recently our midfielders have failed to properly track opposition runners.

Grim, grim, grim. Dundee well on top at the start and although we pushed them back a bit they quickly re-established their dominance. They knew a high press against our back line would work given McCann's preference to play out from the back and players were often caught in possession. Meanwhile, our defence looked haphazard any time a cross or long throw came anywhere near it. McDaid turning Duffy inside out for a good chunk of the first half before he eventually realised he could nullify him by sending him towards the bye line was criminal in how long it took to be employed. By that time though the damage was largely done. McMullan was ripping Harper apart on the ICT left and he sent in a cross that found Max Anderson as he burst into the penalty area and although Ridgers did well to save his first effort the Dee player made no mistake at the second time of asking and put Dundee 1 - 0 up. We rallied a little to push the home side back a bit and had some half chances but Dundee took a deserved two goal lead when a high ball into the box was missed and it landed at the feet of Cummings who spun round and whipped the ball into the net. Prior to this Dundee had great chances falling the way of Mullen, Cummings and Anderson who all had goal bound efforts blocked by Deas or Ridgers. It was one way traffic in the first half and ICT could count themselves fortunate not to be further behind. Second half was less eventful overall compared to the first. A suspiciously offside looking Storey broke through the Dundee defence but shot straight at Hamilton as the angle narrowed whilst Sow blazed over after good work by Cummings on a Dundee counter attack. We did get one goal back when Harper sent over a delicious cross from the left touchline to find Toddy at the back post and he thumped a header past the flailing Hamilton. A similar move almost lead to an ill deserved equaliser but this time the header went wide. Grim performance from us. As has been the case at times this season we at poor for about 75% of the game then improve markedly for the final 15 to 20 minutes or and look like we might do something. I know we have important creative players like Doran and McDonald out but we should be still be doing better than we are. We created precious little for most of that game it is extremely concerning going into a very tough game on Saturday against Alloa. Go behind in that and I don't fancy our chances of turning it around into a much needed 3 points.

I think you've answered your own question potentially. He's been out of action for a long time and played two full games and 2/3rds of another of the last three in just over a week. Probably needs a breather.

I've got no option to change the theme. I just see Privacy Policy.

I still get this using Chrome on both my work laptop and personal one. Doesn't happen on mobile though. I cleared cookies as mentioned above but this didn't seem to do much to help the situation. I have noticed though that if I land on the site and it appears I'm logged out I just need to click a link to any forum page and when that loads I am logged in again.

As mentioned elsewhere there's a new episode of TWS podcast out which features an in depth discussions about Robbo and McCann and we also hear from Josh Meekings on what it was like to play under McCann and Dundee fan Gary Cocker of The Terrace who gives us his thoughts on our interim manager. Usual game reviews, mailbag etc as well. Enjoy! Spotify - https://tinyurl.com/c29z4awt Apple - https://tinyurl.com/andcnrpc

There's a big old chat about the pros and cons of McCann in the latest episode of The Wyness Shuffle. We also get the thoughts of Josh Meekings who played under McCann and Terrace Podcast Dee fan Garry Cocker.

Why are you selling that number plate? That's a brilliant registration!

Charlie Adam out apparently. Pleasing.

Interesting switch up of formation by McCann who seemed to go with some kind of 4-1-3-2 or 4-4-2 diamond and it caught Hearts out for the first half hour or so but over time we seemed to become more and more cautious and became slower at moving the ball. Little support from either Duffy or Harper down the side which was perhaps down to McCann wanting to keep it tight at the back and it worked as Hearts weren't in it for most of the first half. Good ball over the top from Keatings and excellent pace and strength b Storey to bench press that Jambo jobber to the floor and smash it past Gordon. Sloppy defending for the equaliser. Offside claims or not you cannot leave Boyce completely unmarked less than 6 yards out. Very poor to have three defenders all sucked towards the ball. Second half was very niggly and due to the number of fouls no one could get any momentum going. Any time we did get a chance to launch an attack we were crowded out or the attempts at crosses were barely lifted off the ground. Some pretty iffy defending and keeping towards the end made things pretty nervous. Walsh was atrocious. Whilst I am not sure about the second penalty claim for Carson the first was a clear spot kick as Carson was blatantly impeded. Leanne Crichton tried to excuse it saying Carson wouldn't get the ball anyway which seems a bizarre made up rule. The Kingsley challenge on MacGregor (I think) could easily have been a red as well. The only reason I think Walsh didn't show a red was because of his two overturned red cards from the other week.

Dropping Allardice? McCann out!

Trying to figure out if his mug says "COYS" and he is a Spurs fan or if it says "BOYS".

Going OT here but I am sure I wasn't the only one who noticed the two switch roles for the second half.
