Our drummers provided a great atmosphere during our rise through the divisions two decades or more ago. A new generation not just tolerated but welcomed and encouraged by the club would be a great addition to particularly home games where atmosphere is not always what it might be. A welcome development.
-
I am closing this thread as Dave Carson is back at the club. There is a rumour widely circulating about a very personal matter resulting in another player being asked to leave the club but the appropriate forum for such discussions is Rumour Mill with due regard being had both to the rules of this site and to the law of defamation.
-
Drawn away to Clyde. Tie to take place on 19th of December. Hopefully a victory and a home tie at the stadium in the next round.
-
Which should be treated with caution given that the last such rumour was without foundation. Whatever legitimate criticism can be levelled at the club for poor communication, they cannot and should not be expected to spend time commenting on every baseless rumour.
-
Effectively two leagues now although still almost as vital for us to pick up as many points against the bottom five as against our promotion rivals.
-
You may be right although he is seldom at his best on artificial surfaces. If is career is coming to an end we should not let any deterioration in form and fitness allow us to lose sight of what a wonderful servant and skillful player he has been for the club, including at the the highest level, for over a decade now despite much of that time being blighted by injury.
-
Of course it is. Yet another senior moment However, all the more reason to turn out in huge numbers against Killie, their fans will go a fair way to filling the South Stand, for our biggest game of the season so far. A win against Killie and we may well be top of the league. We will certainly be well in the mix with a considerable psychological advantage over one of our main rivals.

Results today, especially Arbroath's win at Rugby Park, leaves the top of the table incredibly tight indeed with very little separating the top five. Two distinct leagues now with the top five competing for the title and three play off spots and the bottom five battling relegation. A break for the cup next weekend and then two absolutely huge home games within four days against Raith and Killie respectively. Win both and we will be back on top of the league irrespective of any results elsewhere. What better incentive to the team need and what better incentive for as many home fans as possible, including many who have been slow to return post lockdown, to pack the North and Main Stands and sing themselves hoarse, or at least in the latter case, rustle their sweetie papers more loudly and vigorously than ever before. Perhaps the biggest few days since we were relegated. Get yourself along to the Longman and encourage as many others as possible to do so as well.

As long as it's loud enough to leave our opponents rattled. -
Slightly dull start to the day here in Aberdeenshire but the morning always seems a little bit brighter the day after an ICT evening win. A slip up by Killie or Raith, preferably both, and the weekend will be complete from a footballing point of view.
-
Absolutely agree. It should now be blidingly obvious that, when fit, all four players mentioned should be in the starting XI.
-
We made life unnecessarily difficult for ourselves for the last quarter of an hour but, on the whole, that was a heartening and entertaining performance. A vital three points stopping the rot of half a dozen league games without a win and putting a wee bit of pressure on our promotion rivals for tomorrow. Can't decide between Billy, Dave or Roddy for my MOM so will give it to the small but highly vocal band who made the long journey to Dumfries on a dark late November evening and who won't be in their beds until the wee small hours. If we continue to play like this and tighten up at the back we may not be far away come the business end of the season.
-
We don't make it easy for ourselves.
-
Same half time scoreline as last week. Same scorer. Now we need to make absolutely sure that that's where the similarities to last week ends. Vital that we hold onto this lead if we are not going to lose touch with our promotion rivals.
-
We need a second while we are on top. The heady days of the start of the season when we could be confident of hanging onto a 1-0 lead are a distant memory.
-
A stonewall penalty well taken. This time can we please not squander the lead.
-
At least we will have a clear picture of us squandering the lead this evening.

Welcome back. Good question with no easy asnwer but sloppy defending of late has not helped. Although it made no difference against the Pars, I think that Dave Carson's return will help in the long run.
-
Does it matter as long as money is raised for a worthy cause that, a hundred years on, is sadly still necessary?
-
Mid November and time to ponder how we can strengthen in the January window and get our promotion push back on track. We are lacking creativity and suffering from poor service and poor finishing. One player who is capable of providing both and who could settle into the team immediately is Daniel McKay. He seems to be out of the first team picture at Hibs with only a couple of appearances this season. In my view, a half season loan could be good for us, benificial to him and ultimately good for his parent club. I would like to think that we at least explore this possibility.
-
I agree with Mantis.
-
Bring them on !

I appreciate that Denmark were resting a few but I can't remember when Scotland played as well as that. Six wins in a row for the first time since Ross Toklely and Grant Munto were in the midst of intimidating strikers the length and bredth of the country. Seeded and a home match in the play offs where Hampden will be rocking like it hasn't done in years. Well done lads. You have done the country proud.

Whilst I don't agree with everything you say, I do agree that a bit of the Steve Paterson 'can do' attitude despite limited resources would go a long way at present.
