In the past we've played the same formation and players week in week out with great effect. All those players went out and done a job. They played for each other and no thought was given to who the opposition were. We feared no-one. Other teams feared coming to TCS. Now we're trying to be too tactical. We're setting our team out to try and fool the opposition. We're trying to match player against player. It aint working so maybe its time to get back to basics. Play the one formation. Play people in their natural position. Play the same team of players each week, unless injury or suspension dictates otherwise, and let them gel as the formidable squad they once were.

Hmm that sounds about right. We should employ Kevin Keegan tactics in most of our home games. Free flowing, all out attack. Whats the worst that could happen, losing? We're already almost always losing. And 1 victory is worth as many points as 3 draws. With the crowd behind the team, and opponents having to play a less adventurours, more defensive game, we'd be far less likely to go behind and never recover, as we always do these days. Even if we lost the odd game 5-3, at least we'd have had a go and would have been entertained in the process.

Exactly, I would pay to see a fight, a game with a couple of goals FOR US and just all round entertainment which a football game should be. We've lost all but one at home due to negative tactics. Get some heart and bite back in the team and we may lose a couple more but we could also win some which is something hard to fathom with Brewsters Brand Of Bullsh*t!

Our league position has hovered around 8th position for a good few years now and we're STILL there. I think non-ICT folk would laugh at the fact that ICT fans want Brewster out.

Oh man, where are the ostrich smilies. We are currently 10th, we were 9th the season before, 8th the season before that and 7th the season before that ... can you not see the progression? Can you not see the excuses? can you not see he himself is now basically sticking two fingers up at the fans with comments like "The people in the crowd can make their own decisions, I am the manager and i've got to make the decisions for what I see best"?

I don't understand why some people can't see their on a down hill slope when they start moving faster

I have been keeping an eye on what's happening with them as a few players could be huge prospects for the future. Well done to them

I miss him !

I just needed to say this..... awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

FTAO Brewster.............................

Finally the press are starting to take notice though, does the board read the courier? Would the board care that there is actual printed statements about how we feel the club are going down hill?

This is possibly the worst thing to come out of this shambolic year so far and I am genuinely gutted that Wilson will not be around... what is ICT without him? I know he went to Livi a few years back but then he returned and legendary status grew and grew. to Wilson for everything you've done for us whether it be on of or the pitch you've always been a part of the fans!

I live in Edinburgh for a few months now and haven't seen Courier for ages! But I know what their like! What are they saying in tomorrows article say? I am very intrigued to see what they think and what their view is on what we think!

Sorry guys, I'm no MOD or anything and don't want to sound like a pr*ck saying this, but no arguing please. This is a simple poll with a simple answer to the question.

like we really need another brew thread or poll or who should be the next manager or who should replace him.......

Its incredible how quickly people jump at what you say on this forum, just one of the reasons I don't come on here as much as I once did. I'm glad a few people have read what I originally posted (KingBeastie, Bronson, RIG) and just answered. It was easy for them, why can it not be for others?

ONCE AGAIN! I put up this post to put a line under things. Yes there has been other topics with the same kind of votes/polls, but I thought maybe why not just give a straight up answer and then you can see what people think. No arguing, just a YES or NO and then we can get back to topics that are actually interesting. Yes this is another poll BUT I HOPED IT MAY BE THE LAST. Sorry for that wee bit of hope and want of change... maybe I shouldn't have bothered.

I'm sorry it is not just a yes or no from me.

You see I have a wee problem! Can I therefore assume we are to have a managerless team?

Should it not be vote for Brew Out and >?>?>?>? In?

Thoughts....

"This plane journey is bumpy lets change the pilot" "Out you go!" "Who knows how to fly a plane, please .....please?"

I knew there would be some flaws in what I said but the premises is essentially should he go YES or NO. No who should be a replacement or anything, as there is other threads on this, but like the thread title says 'Straight up yes or no'.

Back to the polling please!

Vigurs could certainly have done a bit more. Whether that would have prevented the goal is another matter.

If, and I stress if, he should have been tracking / did track Conway back then surely under some pressure from an ICT player he wouldn't have been able to so easily turn and score as he did?

Saw that to, pretty sure it was directed at Protor for letting Conway turn on him so easily. As for whether Vigurs should have been tracking, yes he probably should have. May have come to the same conclusion but then again it might not have, we'll never know. Just worries me how much the players get p*ssed of with each other after losing a goal just now. Does nothing for the confidence getting a right going at by your team mate... I remember the days when a goal let in was the catalyst for the players to get that CMON! LETS GET THIS BACK! attitude. Now its a blame game!

Just a wee bit worried about this one... Wyness may come out trying to make a point and scoring at the weekend surely must have given a confidence boost. Last game at Love Street to? If I were to be playing the last game at my teams home ground then I would be going all guns blazing to make it a game to remember to Tough one indeed!

I'm not a fan of Brew by any means but this thread is dominated by anti-Brew comments. How about the rest of us at least limit our criticisms to a max of one response to a pro comment? Otherwise the thread's pointless.

I start with this quote from starchief just because it summed up my feelings of a thread... and it really does sum up my feelings now about coming on this forum, as I'm getting sick of reading thread after thread about Brewster and why he should/shouldn't go! We all have an opinion and we all have our chance to voice that on here but the arguing has gone to far and I think we should draw a line under it. We all know that arguing amongst each other on here will not change anything in reality FOR EITHER SIDE. So I propose this just so everyone knows where each other stands and thats that. You can call this a stupid idea or what you will but I don't care.

One vote each, NO extra information or arguments for your vote, just YES OR NO!

I'll start... Should Brewster go? YES

Our home record - P19 W4 D4 L11 F25 A25 PTS16

Our away record - P17 W5 D1 L11 F16 A29 PTS16

So in the whole of 2008 (so far at least) we have won a total of 9 games?

Out of interest how many of these were against Gretna?

Pro-Brewster or not, surely this is just not good enough.

Are there folk who think it is?

This equates to 1 win a month.

Anyway you look at it surely this isn't acceptable?

2 against Gretna, and was it 6? (I cant remember if it was 6 goals we scored against them) came in one of those games... so in our 'For Goals' at home, 6 came against 1 team! Thats 19 goals in 18 games! Thats a shocking average!

I did read in the Record that Smiths after Cowie, which is worrying because thats an offer for player and club to not refuse if it does happen

I agree that Keigan Parker would be a good addition to our squad. He is the sort of player we need up front, bit of speed and movement and he also hits a ferocious shot. Wouldn't mind seeing him in a Caley shirt come January.

I don't know if I would want that kind of guy in the squad!

Fernandez shows Tokely why he should be in the next Strictly Come Dancing

As mentioned, the exact same team that played at Rugby Park but swap Wood for Rooney.

I would like to see that to but I very much doubt thats going to happen when Wood has already scored against Celtic and last week. Brewsters going to give another start to Wood no doubt

Nope watched the highlights 4 times now and I can't see Barrowman offside or anyone else for that matter! And as for someone interfering with play, its if someone has blocked, concealed, or helped the ball in any way through. Anyway, it wasn't counted where it should have and we won!

Feel sorry for Barrowman there because he was well onside! Esson was immense!

A couple of the teams suggested here don't have Vigurs starting and that is a big mistake! Starting to influence others around him even though he is young with his level head and ability to pick a pass. Vigurs to start in any game IMO

Haha watching the game now... Killie fans "Ian Black your a wan**r". Poor Killie don't know class when they see it!

Killie boy said after the match that we had 89 fans.

I find that worrying not just from a Caley point but an SPL point. If the crowds dwindle dramatically then who knows what might happen outside of the OF

A very satisfying day indeed.

Had my first flutter on the football since September and won.

ICT to win 2-1 with Imrie to score @ 80/1 - weeing myself when they got the penalty though. :thumb04:

(maybe I should have a punt on the lotto??? :018:

Great day! Good result And congrats Gringo! ;)

Mon the boys!! keep this up!

Disappointed that Duff didn't even make the bench, sure we'll find out soon why. Hopefully not because of the Scotland game!
