i hope this will be big but plenty of football to come yet i believe this period of 6 games is key as it against all the top teams and it will tell us if we just beat the diddy teams or whether we can actually start winning against the better ones. The 1st half on sunday fills me with lots of optimism :D

Anyone going up and down on the train?

Caley Jags ole ole ole

well i will be leaving stirling on the train

me + 1 goin to be mint

well im coming from stirling so i will be in at about 1 looking foward to it immensely 1st final ive been to ;)

The most enjoyable home game this season I reckon. Great result and it could of been more, but on the whole, I don't think there was three goals between the two teams but ICT deserved to win. Morton weren't exactly amazing, but they did have a couple of chances. The standouts for me today were obviously Rooney, Foran and Sanchez. Rooney strangely enough didn't do much else than score his goals, but after all, that's what he's there for and he took each one well. He could've even had four or five today, with the Morton keeeper excellently saving a goalbound header of his, just after he's scored the penalty. Foran was very hard working and has some leap on him. Again, he was all over the pitch and switching with Imrie regularly on the wing and Sanchez now an again. The only thing about him though, is he seems awfully hot headed at times, and the impression I got was he was taken off before he was sent off. For me, that was the best I've ever seen Sanchez. He looked quite good going forward, and passing to wings was excellent. Seemed to beating men on the wings as well today which was very good and fairly effective.

Of the rest, Proctor had a productive if quiet game. The same could be said for Duncan, who was effective at times knocking the ball wide, but did have a few spells of his regular wayward passes. Imrie was good but maybe tries too hard. He was good and hardworking on the wings, but could do with improving his first touch and not going for the glory himself all the time. There was a couple of times when he should of knocked the ball into the box, but instead went on his own to the line, which wasn't as effective.

Of the backline, Esson barely had a save to make but had no chance with the goal. How refreshing it is to see a goalie in an ICT shirt just rolling or throwing the ball out wide. Far better than Michael Fraser's tactics of holding it, holding it and holding it somemore, and then punting the ball aimlessly forward as hard as he could. Tokely didn't have the best of first halves from what I could see but was better in the second. He was like a battering ram at times down the right wing, and his slinky keepy uppys on the byline to knock the ball out for a corner were ace. The only thing is now is that he seems to get quite puffed out towards the end of games. Maybe not fully fit just yet. Bulvitis seems to get better every week and took his goal well. Look the more solid of the two centre backs today, but needs to look for a pass times instead of hoofing the ball forward. He could've had two or three as well today! Golabek was fairly effectively down the left flank though was quiet for spells, but solid nonetheless. Don't know if he's the absolute answer but will do for now with his current performances. Munro wasn't his best today, but wasn't bad. The first 20 minutes or so he looked a bit shakey, and at one point punted the ball to a Morton man on the wing, and then a wayward pass to a Morton striker about 20 feet away led to a Morton attack, all in the space of a minute. As the game went on he became better and seems to have finally realised that these long hoof down the middle are no use and seems to be punting the ball wide to Imrie down the right today which was good, especially when the latter was in space. Not an overly bad day at the office for him.

Of the substitutes, Hayes look very good when he came on. Fairly fast and can beat a man as well. I like him. Cox didn't have much time to do much, but still did alright. Barrowman was unlikely not to score in the last minute. It could've been either him or Sanchez to knock it home, but in the end it was neither. Snazzy boots mind. :022:

For me today, the unusually unhatted Butcher got it right today. A fluid sort of style was used, with the front four, especially Foran and Imrie changing fairly reguarly, with Proctor or Duncan occaisonally peeling out to the wing as well. It reminded me of last seasons Man U with many players not playing a set positions. Passing and first touches were a heck of a lot better today asw ell, but a couple still need to work on them. It's been obvious for months that attacking football has to be used, especially at home if ICT was to get promoted this season, and today we got just that. I'm not going to count my chickens yet, but if ICT keep playing the way they are, promotion is not an impossible dream this season.

i think ur wrong i think rooney did more for the team than just score his workrate of closing down the central defenders was outstanding but id agree with everything else :D

well it better stay the same i travel up from stirling every home match only to go away disapointed at performance and result. Hopefully this will be the start of somthing new and the hope of promotion tht is faintly dying maybe revived

bought 5 for me and my sister and 3 friends at uni with me get in :024:

i wasnt at the game yesterday but i wish i had. if the performance was as gd as people say it was then i cant wait til morton next weekend when hopefully we will have a spring in our step after this lets just hope tb allows the players to be free and we will be celebrating our 1st win at home this season :D

caley were awful yesterday but i dont think butcher is to blame it is a case of bein poor at home again away weve picked up 4 points while home only 1 with 1 goal scored things could have been different when they cleared the ball off the line but everyone is beating everyone so i think it will be tight but butcher nearly saved us last year so stop whinging by christmas we may be miles ahead

Who's going then? And where will you be sitting?

Up the back of Section G hoping for a bounce.. + about15.

i will be there with ma sis section B north stand :D
