Kingsmills

Actually, I do think that ICT have played at their best or close to their best on occasion since Brewster returned, the home victory anainst Celtic last season and the first game of this season at Pittodrie come to mind. The players clearly have the potential to hold their own against anyone in the division. That's why it's so frustrating that such perfromances in the last two seasons have been so few and far between. It's inevitable that any side will have off days and poor performances but since Brewster returned for every game where the team have played to their potential there seem to be five or six where the players seem less than motivated and the team tactically naive. In my opinion, the fault for that lies squrely with the managemtnt and coaching team with prime responsiblity being Brewster's. We had a rare competent and tactically proficient performance against Hibs. Our next three matches are all agaist opposition we should be capable of beating if we play to our potential. My fear is that we will revert to type and follow our hard earned victory at Easter Road with the usual dross. If I'm wrong and we do perform competently in these matches then maybe, just maybe, Brewster has a future as manager of this club. If not, then what more evidence will the Board need that it's time for a change ?

The excercise will do you good !

That will be a tougher challenge especially away from home.

I suppose that there is an incentive for all three to try to make an even bigger impression at first team level If they do then Billy Stark will not be able to continue to ignore them.

That would be an error, in my opinion, the lad has great potential.

He's probably prejudiced by the fact that so many other youngsters are getting a first team game just now.

I'm just about certain that John Grieg was Rangers manager at the time Urquhart signed.

Sorry to see the Clach lads getting such a doing. Hopefully it wont have dented their confidence too badly.

I think it's the end of the season but I could be wrong.

He'll not be free. He'll want a signing on fee and a fairly hefty wage. Not worth it in my opinion.

I've seen worse !

From the few times I've seen him, well two actually, he's looked a real prospect. I believe that his time will come either this season or next.

Mark Brown was probably one of the three most consistent Scottish 'keepers in his last couple of seasons with us but was never included in the senior squad.

There must be a happy medium.

Has the draw for the 4th round been made yet ?

I'm disappointed that Duff and Vigurs have been omitted but hardly surprised.

Mid table in the Championship would still be enough to increase his salary at least fourfold.

I wouldn't disagree with that.

I agree with Mantis !

It would certainly give some comfort to put clear water between ourselves and Hamilton. I still believe that they and ourselves are the likliest candidates for the drop.

He was hopelessly erratic when he was with the Dons. I'm not overly enthusiatic about the prospect of him joining ICT.

Whatever the question Ardiles is not the answer !

I still think that Rooney's the better long term prospect.

Anything less than 5 points from the next three fixtures would be a disappointment. I agree that the league is a very level playing field below the Old Firm which is why any team not playing to their potential is in danger of relegation.

Have a great night. Hope the score doesn't give nightmares.
