    Some of us old farts like the tactile experience of reading a newspaper and failing to complete the crossword. Moreover, it's pretty hard to start the fire in the morning with a scrunched up e reader.

    Maybe those fortunate fans let in, who are in a position to afford to could make a voluntary contribution towards the additional costs of having fans in the ground.

    Aberdeen may have to wait a while as the area is in Tier 2 and will, almost certainly, remain there after next week's review. No doubt though that they will have contingency plans for when fans return. I suspect if things go well and fans comply with what is being asked of them, then the crowds in Tier 1 areas will gradually be permitted to increase. In our case perhaps to 1,200 to 1,500 fans. A huge incentive for everyone who does get back in the stadium to be as careful and respectful as possibly and for fans to self police.

    Of course it's worth it. It is a start to build on and we have to begin somewhere. Very welcome development which is very likely also to be extended to ourselves and Elgin.

    It would be good to see the West stand decked out in something other than Irish tricolours or Union flags.

    Absolutely correct. I know of at least two family groups who were able to sit together. I would imagine that, like mixing of households indoors, there may yet be a delay of a few weeks before fans are permitted. Nevertheless, very welcome and a further incentive for all living in a tier 1 area to continue to follow the rules to remain there or even move to tier 0 and for those of us not yet in tier 1 to do the same to get there.

    I actually quite like the early rounds of the cup with an opportunity for a competitive games against some of the league clubs that we seldom if ever play or against a junior or non league senior club. I would love an Inverness derby in the premier national knockout competition should Clach get through. All the better in the, still unlikely, event that we could get some fans in.

    Maybe they were ambitious to try to get the ball back into play to score a winner.

    Given the injury situation with our wafer thin squad, I think it is too early to start to despair. Winning the league is probably beyond us, it probably was for everyone except Hearts even before the season began, but there is all to play for as far as play off places are concerned and we won't know how we stand in that race until we have those currently on the treatment table back on the pitch. Given the late equaliser, I am choosing to view yesterday as a point gained rather than two points lost.

    I understand the difficulties involved in setting up coverage from scratch but the quality of that coverage really wasn't good enough for paying customers of any business. The quality of the coverage was worse than the quality of the football which is really saying something.

    I agree. Fine player as he is, through no fault of his own, Doran is persistently and consistently injury prone. One reason why he is still with us and not plying his trade at a higher level. For that reason alone, he has to be regarded as an occasional luxury rather than in any way indespensible. We now have a squad made up of entirely of journeymen which means that no single player can be regarded as indespensible but, with such a thin squad, we can't afford to dispense with very many at any one time.

    I can never bring myself to bet against us no matter how tempting the odds.

    I knew I should have spent that twelve quid on a fish supper, a pickled egg and a bottle of Belhaven Best.

    A much less welcome dose of normality veing restored is our usual poor start to a league campaign. Disappointing after such a promising start to the game.
  18. Kingsmills
    Saturday morning. ICT playing an important league match and an opportunity to watch albeit remotely. What a welcome injection of normality into this thoroughly abnormal year.
  19. Kingsmills
    That may well end up being the case but the wonderful thing about sport is it's unpredictability and I don't think that we, or any other team in the division, should be regarding that as inevitable before we have even kicked a ball in anger.
  20. Kingsmills
    Hearts have cemented their status as firm title favourites with a thoroughly convincing victory over Dundee to kick off their league campaign. All the more incentive for us to beat the Pars. If we are to having any chance of automatic promotion we can't afford to let any gap develop between ourselves and the Jambos even at this early stage.
  21. Kingsmills
    Having been critical of the club in the past, great credit to them for getting this up and running for the league season and at such a fair and reasonable price.

    Those of us of a certain age have been there far too often before to expect anything else First experienced during the 1974 World Cup. Repeated frequently since.

    A squad number is merely a number. It's maybe my age but I don't see the fascination. I am interested in where players play and how well they play. I could not care less about what is on the back of their shirt.

    Jim McLean used to do that occasionally for Dundee United in Europen competitions back in the days when players were one to eleven on their shirts with no names. It did indeed often used to confuse the opposition for the first chunk of the match.
