Get Vigurs Back In The Team?
Very much agreed. I think he's not playing due to the fact were trying to include all the most experienced players we have. But someone needs to show Butch the tape showing his goal against Partick. His technique and ability in dead ball situations are good and given the fact we lack any real threat down the left i say yes to him being back in the team.

Captain Courageous
Russell Duncan's too much of a cheeky git to be a captain and Lionel??? :thumb04: I don't think Munro is that bad as a captain but if it had to be somone else it would have to be Rosscoe. He has literally been there since the beginning and while his disciplinary record is a bit dissapointing i can't help but think he would be a good motivator and more hard working to the cause. 3rd choice would be Kerr, very experienced and i think he captained Motherwell on a few occasions.

Ryan Esson Red Card
I think there's a slight bit of contact from Esson, enough to prove innocence anyway but Refs are so daft in this league...

Keep On Truckin'...
Well said. Staying up is still very much possible.

Butcher Criticism
Would agree with Kerr and Black, Kerr's passing range is better and he has more of an eye for goal than Russell Duncan who for me is proving to be more of a burden with each game. Think Morais should also play every game between now and the end of the season, his pace and foot work are a handful and every game needs to be played attackingly. I also think that means some sort of left sided player needs to go in on the left wing. Lionels crossing is poor and Foran is a striker, end of. Probably go with Vigurs, just cause McBain's getting a bit done and Imrie's final ball is hopeless each time. Foran and Imrie up front. Imrie chases after every ball and drags defenders away while Foran wins the headers and also gets into good areas. Just think it's time for TB to make a freshen up to the team.

Do We Actually Have The Bottle ?
If we didn't have the bottle we would not have climbed of the bottom beating arguably the best team in the country to do it. Yes Saturday was humiliating but so has the majority of this season. And to have doubts over us after the Killie game is not needed. We won the game for goodness sake. Fact is there are 6 teams who are all capable of going down but as long as we keep the looking over our shoulders to a minimum and concentrate on improving our own form then i'm sure survival can be achieved. Personally i'd put my money on Killie going down. With everything thats at stake for them and the form there in i think they will bottle it in the closing stages of the season.

Away Support Today
Tokely, Munro and Fraser played for the club in 3rd, 2nd, 1st division and now SPL (over all) so they've being with the club for a few years and played there hearts out to get where they are now Imrie came from another club which was in the 1st division not 2nd like where barrowman came from. The only player i can think who came from a 2nd division team and has down well to fit in a SPL side is Morgaro Gomis (Dundee Utd) Danny Swanston at Dundee Utd as well. Willie Gibson at Kilmarnock. The likes of James McCarthy and McCarthur are examples as well of what the lower leagues can produce as well. Unfortunately any player taken from the lower leagues are a gamble.

Grant Munro
Would agree that it is time for Munro to be rested. He has severely under perfromed in the last few games but i don't think Terry Butcher is intrested in the young players right now so i don't see Duff getting a shout, altough i think it would be a good idea. But at the moment i'm not intrested in seeing McGuire and i defnitely don't want Proctor to go back to centre-half so who else can we use??

To All The Players At Ict
I did expect a tough task yesterday and i did expect Falkirk to really go for it but what i did not expect was for ICT to be so complacent that we got an absolute hiding, it was absolutely humiliating just to listen too. Too many players in our team have for so long simply played for the wage or got so complacent that they know they don't have to perform to the best of there ability as soon as all starts going so well, thats why we have never got very far in this league apart from survival. Especially now at the moment is the time we need our players playing every game like it's their last, i'm sure Butcher can't stress that enough to them.

Shameful and embarassing.

Falkirk -v- Ict : Matchday Thread
Sounds like there will be words at HT. Finnigan's doing what Anthony Stokes did to us 2 seasons ago. Scoring into us for fun and being the only Falkirk player to do it.

Finnigan again. Flip sake.

Barry Wilson just grabbed a goal for QoS today.

Falkirk -v- Ict : Matchday Thread
Not impressed with that. Kerr played well last week and Duncan has done nothing to show me he's worth an automatic place in the team.

Dodgy Keepers Who Have Helped Ict
Graham Smith of Motherwell hasn't exactly provided wonderful moments against us. He's flapped at a few corners in his time that we have taken advantage of. I think all the recent hype about him joining Hibs is ridiculous, he is badly overrated.

League Table Since Tb & Mm
Not dwelling but it just goes to show were we could be if Butcher and Malpas had come in a month earlier.

It's Looking Bleak In Ayrshire
Would be ashame to see Killie go down and out of buisness because then that will be the second team in a row to be relegated from the Premier League then in a matter of weeks go out of buisness. Gretna were in slightly different circumstances financially but there fans put up with a miserable season last year then took make matters worse at the end they had their clubs professional status taken away. If this does happen to Killie as well it does nor paint a very pritty picture for clubs who face the drop in future seasons. Would have to make either Falkirk or St Mirren my choice to go down. St Mirren cause they constantly try to poach our players and Falkirk so we wouldn't have to put up with Yogi's touchline moaning.

Ex-ict Players Score
He took that penalty so well last night. He was at ICT for 4 years, how come he never took any?
-
Scotland Squad
Would like to see Charlie Mulgrew get a sniff but like mentioned his defensive side is pathetic. The man is 6 ft 3 and he gets completely out muscled and out jumped by the likes of Scott McDonald and Morgaro Gomis. Pathetic. However his set pieces could prove pivital if given the chance. Cowie should defnitely be in the team given his recent Watford performances. Especially if crap like Gary Teale get in ahead of him.

Reserve Result Against Motherwell
Says more about the standard of the reserve league than anything else but well done to the boy for getting a goal. May help his confidence along the way.

Latvia Call Up For Pavels
Well done to the boy, nice to see him get what he deserves, he has been our best player since he came in imo. We got a few internationals here for ICT now.
