No

Why?

Yes, somebody must know.............why do people want to know these things, it takes all kinds I suppose.

Imrie took a sore one, he may be out for 3-6 months, he is hobbling badly just now. First tackle was the one that nobbled him.

Grant did have a solid game on Saturday and saved a certain goal just before half time. He was my MoM ably assisted by Bulvitis. Your header is a bit misleading though.

Must be following Strathspey Thistle in the Highland league.

Aye aye OK guys, keep it clean please, enough of that at the weekend.

Oooh I think a modicum of shouting juice always helps the voice to project from the North Stand. The big definite though is the grouping together of the like minded fans. Having decent stewards and polis is also a consideration.

There is swearing and swearing. I can swear with the best of them. What I heard, warranted or not, was an extremely foul mouthed and aggressive tirade directed at an individual and I was surprised the polis did not intervene and remove one or two of the perpetrators. Kyle Allisson would be a very foolish lad indeed to get involved in this sort of behaviour and I am sure the club will take a dim view of the alleged events that led up to this. I don't think we have heard the end of this and I would be very careful what we write regarding this incident.

Queen of the South in Dumfries. How big was away support............all over six foot I believe............well apart from Johndo.

It was only a pre-season friendly, but did Caff not bulge the roof of the net with an angled drive from six yards at Dingwall to win the game for us, 2-1 I think about three or four years ago, he did the same against the Dons in injury time, before they kept doing it to us.

I reckon we only have three proper strikers 1. Foran.................Numero uno, target man and box predator. 2. Barrowman.........Surely this season. 3. Sutherland..........learning his trade, and coming along nicely. 4. Rooney as a makeshift targetman, he has proved he is no box striker. Odhiambo and Sanchez are surely wide men or foils playing off the targetman.

ESSON ;) Despite Pars long range shooting had surprisingly little to do, but still our number one. PROCTOR Had a torrid time from a lively David Graham, but considering it was his first competitive game he coped well and put in some important challenges. BULVITIS He looks the business. One shaky moment in the first half when half the defence were looking like the keystone cops, but he cefrtainly got involved and will be better before the season ends. MUNRO My MoM as well, two crucial challenges and his general aerial ability kept the Bayne threat at bay. One of the blocks in the first half prevented a certain goal. Well done Grantie. LIONEL Almost capped a great first half display with a shot that shaved the keepers far post. Sliced one clearance high and mighty but his overall play was Brazilliant. IMRIE One stinging shot is hardly likely to release the purse strings of the SPL clubs. Dougie back to his inconsistent bets. COX A lot quiter than I thought he might be, but trust me, this lad will be big news by the end of the season. Keogh like winner at the end gets him that fourth smiley. STRATFORD Disappeared and I thought he should have been replaced, we don't need two invisible players. EAGLE Started brightly but flattered to deceive a little. Always looked busy but not direct enough although he kept possession well. SANCHEZ He has all the tricks and could have scored late on but was crowded out and saw his effort deflected off target. Maybe not yet match fit but will come good methinks. ROONEY One paced, not a reaction box player and lacked the guile to beat the keeper on more than one occasion. Battled hard as a target man but got little support. McBain Not on for too long but showed his worth on the left side. Hayes Nice little cameo from Johnny, much more direct and looks like a good signing once he gets in shape. Sutherland Not on for long either but could be a better option than Rooney although Foran will usurp both of them. Away Crowd Fantastic effort lads, but lost the full house for the tirade of abuse directed at one of our own players. Tannoyman Inaudible at half time. Maybe they have the same system as us. East End Inn Great spread put on for us, cheers.

Just viewed it after adding active x add on. Good quality.

Hold on hold on, you are only provisionally top of the league, you might have to play Livi yet for the points, or will you just toss a coin or something similar, maybe the shortest peg out of the bag...........

I'd rather see a picture of the blonde......... Anyone else rather see Sutherland starting ahead of Rooney. Bit like Gary Wood, he has some neat turns up his sleeve and is big enough to be a pest in the air. I also thought that the introduction of Johhny Hayes made a difference, he is more direct that Eagle and should be an asset when fully fit. We can't complain really, three points, an away win against one of the better teams in the division and no goals conceded. Great singing from the ICT crowd, the Pars boys never started until near half time. I did like the look of David Graham the Dunfermline left winger, he seems to be able to drift past players with ease, like a younger Barry Wilson. All in all, we maybe rode our luck a little, but we had other chances, maybe a draw would have been justice for the Pars, but hey ho, we are off and running so far.

I agree with the positive noise, it was as good as it has been, fantastic effort, but the personal abuse was out of order.

That will be the Immortal Howdenender.

I have merged these topics as original post deviated onto Kyle Allisson abuse. Please use the matchday thread to discuss the contents of the game, and this thread for the abusive content. Sorry, but I fail to see how anyone in their right mind can condone this sort of behaviour, or does anarchy still rule in Inverness. Pathetic.

Which one is Foran???

I struggled to comprehend what it was about. The extremely foul mouthed attack was aimed at Allison and not bayne. Guys that was pretty pathetic. Overuse of the c swear is out of order in my book. It's not clever, it's not smart and it's not for ICT if you don't mind. To call one of our own playes A f'in c'in Dingwall gypsy b'rd is not acceptable. Grow up or stay at home.

Aye well spotted ajsict, most of the usual suspects can be identified on that picture. I thought we started the better team and Dunfermline looked a poor team. But as we wasted good possession Dunfermline clawed their way back into it before half time. Rooney can't get any quicker, he always looks laboured and slow to react in the box. In his favour, he battled away as a lone target man not always getting the support he needed and won a few knock on headers, but without support it was futile. My view on Eagle is that he performed OK, not always beating his man but he worked hard enough. Lionel had our closest attempt as he raced down the left and as the Pars defence retreated he smashed a low shot across the keeper which glanced off the base of the post. Cox had a quiet first half by his standards but plugged away and scored a goal at the death reminiscent of Keogh at Clyde, as he first timed a shot past the diving keeper. Neither keeper had too many direct saves to make although both had their palms stung by fierce long range efforts, ours coming from Imrie. The cumbersome Rooney missed the best opportunity for us when in pole position he screwed his shot wide from ten yards with only the keeper to beat. Grantie held firm at the other end when he blocked an attempt from six yards as the striker pulled the trigger and looked as though he would score, thats when the Dunfy lad jumped up to celebrate. Rooney again turned as quick as the QE2 and another chance went abegging. Dunfermline started the second half further upfield and the pressure was now mounting on the ICT rearguard, although most of their efforts were from long range. Kirk had a shot smack the top of the post with Esson stranded as Pars took a stronger grip of the game and tghey looked the more likely to score. into the last fifteen and we started to come out of our shell and the game took on a new end to end look. Sanchez waltzed past some defenders and had his shot deflected wide when he looked set to open the scoring and Dunfermline had a couple more anxious moments in our box before Coxy popped up and lashed home the winner. It looked like a scene from the world cup finals as our fans went delirious and tumbled about in the stand. MoM for us I thought Grantie stood firm today ably assisted by Bulvitis and Proctor. Lionel showboated his way through the first half but took a couple of knocks in the second half. Imrie was anonymous that strike on target apart, never noticed him until he got replaced. Stratford much the same. Sanchez looks to avoid the 50/50 challenges but is a tricky customer and could easily have scored before Cox did but for desperate Pars defending, and he manufactures it himself. Graham looked threatening for Pars and Bayne and Kirk linked up well.

It's not full of boring old farts...............I'm not on it, and less of the old Brosno. Although I am taking my car now. Quite a few heading over from Edinburgh, Crusher, Zogg and Paris will be looking for a train out as well.

Lot of people being a tad harsh on Mike here. He did no too bad when he arched his body skywards to stop Celtic scoring at the away end in Inverness. Give the guy a break. He has made mistakes, unfortunately for him, he is in a position where we can not afford those errors and they are high profile when we make them. Good luck to him wherever.

Sorry Johnboy, I couldnae resist it
