just saw the goals on sky sports news. livi's was a beauty.

Liam Molesworth Things like this has only made my desire for football stronger. Liam Molesworth I havn't bad mouthed anyone at ICT, I like every1 there! It's a gr8 club and thts y i wnted 2 play for them. Don't believe what your told! I really feel for the guy. I bet he wishes he didn't have a twitter account..

I hope Meekings isn't deployed as a centre half because I thought he struggled there against Forres.. He just seemed to be too small. I can imagine him being a better full back. And as I've said before I hope Terry isn't taking Shinnie in as a forward because I really don't think he's suited to play there. Anyway I'm glad to at least see the squad growing and I look forward to both lads making me eat my words. Whilst I agree that Rooney's contract should be used to attract a real quality player but I don't want to see someone coming up just for the money...

My views at 4am Esson didnt have anything to do that i can remember but I've absolutely no worries about the GK department. Proctor I thought he was alright.. He did get beaten for pace by Jason Crooks/Craig Gunn a few times (as did the whole midfield and defence) which is a bit of a worry. But his versatility makes him an important squad player. Aldred looked solid and has given me a wee bit more faith in our defence going into the new season but we are still really lacking in numbers in defence. Rosscoe gave his usual solid as a rock performance.. We could do with another one or two of him. Gillet again no better than alright from me.. Looked better going forward than defending, sold himself a few times. Ross another fine performance from nick and I'm looking forward to seeing him in his second year in the spl. I'd like to see him chip in with a few goals this year. Tansey much improved performance from Greg compared with the Forres game(in part down to elgins midfield being poorer and less up and at um than forres'). Always offering himself as an option and looking to get the ball. He likes a long ball..I'd just like to see more of them arrive into feet. But his shooting left a lot to be desired today. Morrisson I thought had a really good game. Dictated a lot of the play taking hold of the middle of the park. From the two games I've seen so far I'd be picking gav over tansey assuming coxy is first choice in central midfield, Greig It was good to see Andrew get a lot of game time (just a shame it came at the cost of an injury to Graeme..hope it's not s bad one, I did notice he was hobbling around ICTs dugout) Thought he had a decent game. He's va tricky wee player but at times he's got all the stepovers etc but is going nowhere. It'll be interesting to see if Terry gives him a shot in the spl.. He's the kinda guy I'd like to see running at tiring defences. A. Shinnie is not a forward so I dont understand Terry playing him there in the two games I've seen. He's alright but IMO no better than those that were released (dani/Eric) Richie was my mom today not just for his three goals but because without him I don't know what we'd do. IMO he was in a league of his own. Totally committed and winning everything. But if he's going to be deployed as a striker he's going to need someone to play alongside him.. Someone to win the second balls and latch on to the flick ons. Subs Tuffey had one good double save but looked a wee bit shaky from some crosses but like I said no worries regarding GK. Jack Sutherland looked a good prospect. Nice attacking full back but don't see him getting much action in the spl. Polworth showed why he's held in such high regard, always desperate to get on the ball with an eye for a pass. Cooper/G. Shinnie didn't have enough time to do right or wrong, My analysis.. In an ideal world We need another one or two centre halves still and a right back (K gilbert perhaps? Not seen him) and being really greedy I'd like another utility defender to cover a few positions. I'm not too worried about midfield at the moment. Another winger perhaps but Ross and Hayes I'd imagine would be first picks there. I'd be happy to see Stuart Duff back also. We need an out n out striker or two.. Someone we can rely on m to get at least double figures goals a season. In general in still very worried about how small our squad is.. We are going to have little to no depth.

Not to be a prophet of doom or anything but I don't understand giving those two two year deals at all.. Especially Meekings.

FT 0-3

Ross off Cooper on

Greig just blazed an easy chance over the bar. Shinnie off Polworth on

3-0 Foran gets his hat trick

2-0 Foran

Tuffey on for esson also

Rosscoe off jack Sutherland (I think) on

He was supposed to be very good when he was at county..

HT 1-0.

1-0 Overhead kick from Foran. Sounds better than it was to be fair haha.

Graeme Shinnie off Andrew Greig on

I'll try my best to keep this updated from the stadium.

Me and the old boy will be there.

just paid up.

Tade, Christophe, Stevenson and Sutherland were all sitting in the stand watching.. No sign of Cox or Hayes (of the guys signed up they were the only two I can think of that weren't there). Terry has been saying in interviews that Johnny should be back for the Elgin game on Saturday. Edit: Esson is another signed player who wasn't there.

Not a bad run put for the boys I thought. In terms of my opinion of the new guys. Meekings did not fill me with much confidence, good talker but too easily beaten in the air, he's not a centre half IMO. Andy Shinnie was alright I thought, bagged a couple of goals but didn't seem to do much else other than run offside. The game also seemed to pass Tansey by so still yet to get an opinion on him. The new goalkeeper (can't remember his name) had nothing to do. Thought Greig looked a handful when he came on. My man of the match would probs be Nick Ross he seemed to be involved in anything we did going forward. Have to say despite scoring 7 im pretty worried about where our goals are going to come from this season.. Just hope Tade or Gornell look more the part.

Its official.

me and the old boy.

he looks really really familiar but i can't put a name to the face.

Wish I didn't hate Man City. I feckin' love that shirt.
